Advenus Classem Announcement to the State

#1 - 2013-02-16 18:18:12 UTC  |  Edited by: Thgil Goldcore
Greetings members of the Empire and State citizens.

Today I would like to announce Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris (PIE, the oldest Empire loyal capsuleer organization) has formerly created a branch with the express intention of improving Empire/State relations and to increase military cooperation. My corporation, Advenus Classem (AVCL, sub-branch of the PIE alliance), will operate as this branch and is authorized to work with Caldari pilots for both cultural and strategic exchanges. While there are many things we may not see eye to eye on, there are so many ways that the Empire and State are very compatible. For this reason it is my sincerest prayer that cooperation can be established, that good nature will triumph over mistrust, and that we can form a stronger alliance together against the darkness of the cluster.

AVCL will conduct three operations in order to establish this goal.

First, AVCL is seeking Caldari military leadership in order to host some combined operations within our warzones, both in the State/Federation front and the Empire/Republic front.

Second, AVCL is establishing a common area, of sorts, which is open to those loyal to the Empire or State to converse, talk about culture, and establish commercial and military partnerships. This will take place in the form of the AVCL connection, now currently open. Capsuleers loyal to the Empire, State, or their allies are welcome to come in and visit.

Third, AVCL is authorized to accept Caldari pilots in our new pilot exchange program. The purpose is to allow Caldari pilots to experience the Amarr Culture in a environment that is both comfortable and understanding. Caldari amenities will be provided during the length of the transfer program for pilots who want to ease themselves into it. PIE will also lift the typical hull restriction on transfer pilots as such they may pilot their native Caldari hulls.

I look forward to working with loyal members of the State in the near future. Any and all questions should be aimed at me directly though mail or convo. Any Amarr who wish to be involved in this program are welcome to contact me as well.

Citizens!

I have been among the first to join this commendable initiative. The security and stability of the cluster depend upon the close cooperation of Empire and State. That cooperation must not only be forged by our leaders, but by our peoples as well. The participation of capsuleers, who play such a prominent role in inter-empire relations these days, is essential.

Under the auspices of the Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris, State and Empire will be able to strike the fear of God into the hearts of the enemies of the State, whilst simultaneously strengthening the friendships between those men and women who choose to fight together for a common cause.

I highly recommend that capsuleers who are adversely affected by the recent unpleasantness join me in this exciting new opportunity. The exchange programme will allow you to experience Amarr culture first-hand, without losing access to the amenities that we've become used to enjoying. Such an experience will look good on any corporate CV.

For the State! Amarr Victor!

This is a wonderful initiative. I'd like to extend a personal welcome to all interested pilots. I look forward also to seeing an equivalent program on the Caldari side.

Amarr and Caldari Victor!

Soli Deo gloria.

Before its asked, AVCL's opinion about the current issue within the state, and what side we stand on...

"No official comment"

AVCL's goals is to make friends with the state, not dictate its internal affairs.

Now THAT is the sign of a true friend. I've spoken with Miss Goldcore at length about her proposed offer to Caldari pilots and I can honestly say that anyone who chooses to take her up on her offer can expect to be treated with respect and courtesy.

I look forward to great things from this initiative.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

I must admit I never been much of a friend of the Caldari, probably because I can't really understand their culture. And I look forward to this chance of meeting the allies on the other side, and be able to overcome those deficits in understanding that exist in my perception of the caldari people and society.

May both sides come stronger out of this, and may an eternal bond be created between both nations!

I wanted to publicly thank Deus Fides Empire for their extremely generous donation of ships and resources to provide to ships and learning material for new transfers. Now it is our job to live up to Mr. Cutters gift by making this initiative as effective as possible.

As a former Caldari citizen myself, this is a most blessed opportunity for all Caldari capsuleers who wish to earn deliverence.

Fly with God, brethren.

Interesting to say the least. Until Pie accepts Gallente and Minimatar pilots, Their will be those that will say this is nothing but a PR job...

It is a good first step.

Hello.

The Praetorian Auxiliary Force accepts Gallente and Minmatar pilots who support the Empire. Advenus Classem is likewise open to Gallente and Minmatar pilots despite being focused on Amarr-Caldari relations.

PIE has a division for all races loyal to the empire in the PAUX corp.

AVCL doesn't have a race restriction as well, just we accept State loyal pilots. We also don't force the Amarr faith on transfer pilots. We make sure they can get exposure to it if they chose to, but faith in god is not a requirement for AVCL... Respect though is.

The public common area is almost complete. We are just finishing installing the last Holo-Emitters to catch the latest mind clash games. Speak to me about details, public post coming soon.

Translation: "We want to convert you to our faith and command your fleets as is our divine right."

The Caldari don't need the Amarr: we should be forging diplomatic ties elsewhere, among the civilisations who don't regard us as children in need of an education.

As much as I respect you, Hakatain-haan, I have to respectfully disagree. I never got that vibe from Commander Goldcore, who has been very interested in not offending Caldari social and cultural mores.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

Oh yes. She's extremely skilled at not giving offense.

The thing that needs to be remembered is that the Amarr do want to convert us. It's kind of the stated purpose of the Empire, and the last time I checked PIE were Imperial loyalists. The objective of Amarr is to become the monoreligion, the one faith system of all of humanity in New Eden. And they're not stupid about pursuing that objective - if they think they can do it through flattery, inoffensiveness, diplomacy, pleasantries and outright lies, you can bet your beard they will try.

You watch, the oh-so-sincere declarations of wounded integrity will inevitably follow what I'm saying here. The words "We have nothing but respect for the Caldari people" in the mouth of an Amarr loyalist is a smooth deception. Make no mistake - to them, we're still heathens. It's just that we're heathens they feel safe enough using their subtler, slower tools on. They're the most dangerous kind of enemy, Tuulinen-haan - the one who is convincingly masquerading as a friend.

Am I accusing pilot Goldcore of knowingly spreading falsehoods? No, of course not. I'm sure she's perfectly sincere. The most convincing lies are the ones where the person disseminating them honestly believes they are the truth.
