Intergalactic Summit

As it should be, The Ray of Matar Karin Midular is home with her people. Those among us who are not Matari cannot fully grasp the importance of this, but we extend our best wishes, prayers and hopes for this remarkable woman.

The Disciples of Ston bid Karin Midular Peace.

As a Sebiestor, I'd rather she not be moved. Anything which negatively impacts her chances is to be frowned upon.

However... were I in her place, I suppose I would rather die at home, with my kin, than in a faraway place.

Spirits guide everyone impacted by this.

It's good that they waited until she was at least stabilized before giving in to moving her.

What an interestingly short statement on the matter from the Republic.

I guess this means that Shakor will be able to finish her off quietly now, which is sad.

Any word on whether or not Blaque has managed to make the original assassin squeal yet?

My Best Wishes go to Midular in this trying time for her, I hope one that sought to repair my Empires and the Matari's much damaged relations makes a good recovery.

Ms Luftschreck, insinuating that her attempted assassination was of Shakor's doing without any evidence is merely an attempt to ignite arguments and hostile attacks, unless you come across such please refrain yourself form weaving conspiracy's

Not much since they are sociopaths, after all.

It is pleasing to see that Ray of Matar Karin Midular is returning home to her people and that, as suspected, when the confusion and elevated emotions balanced out, reason and trust between allies was restored.

Waiting until her condition had stabilized was a sound decision by the Federation. Transferring immediately upon that condition per the will of her people was also a sound decision by the Federation.

Wishing for such an important representation of a people to be among her people in the hardest times of her life is a sound understanding by the Sebiestor Tribe.

My prayers go with you all. Walk in wisdom. Live in harmony.

Let's see... a Republic fleet comes to my homeworld, murders hundreds of thousands of people - including my parents, kidnaps me, drags me back to their stations, tries to brainwash me into fighting against my own people, and then acts surprised when their plan culminates in me stealing one of their ships and blasting my way right back to my home & what was left of my family.

And... the "council" of another terrorist is somehow going to help me get over my anger? Sorry, but only God can do that - and God has done much of that already. Unlike some people, I don't spend my free time on the other side of the border shooting at helpless civilians for jollies. The rare times that I'm over the there I'm usually hauling around vaccines & stuff. I guess that makes me the very model of a "sociopath," eh?

There was never any betrayal, by me or anyone. There was only your own false assumption of loyalty that was never there to begin with, the assumption that loyalty to the petty notion of "bloodlines" is more important than loyalty to God Almighty. In the end I have done nothing put prove the loyalty I have for my people. Shame that you savages just can't get through your skulls who, exactly, my people have always been.

Next up: An actual psycho will call me a coward for advocating for peace and not plunging headfirst into war... again. Anyone want to place bets on their nationality?



Conspiracies. Plural. Sorry but once you've had the Bloody Hands send a drugged up preteen wearing a vest full of explosives into your estate mixed in with a tour of schoolkids while then you develop, as a survival mechanism, a healthy sense of paranoia.

Midular was, to all appearances, a diplomat who sought peace with the Empire and frankly I think the Republic could use a few billion more people like her in their government. Unlike some political leaders over there she actually seems to place the well being of her people above throwing their lives away in some chest-thumping war.

Never forget: If a fanatic is willing to give their life for a cause then you can be damn sure they'll give yours as well. Someone willing to sacrifice millions of Matari lives in a war with the Empire wouldn't think anything of taking out one measly Matari diplomat, either - especially if her peace endorsing ways are becoming an obstacle to the war you crave so much.

So does that mean it was Shakor? Not for certain, but only because we haven't seen what his next move is. But now he's in a position where if she dies in bed and he starts up a new wave of terror attacks then he's pretty much pointing the finger at himself. His best bet now, as far as vindicating himself, would be to carry her torch of peace until she recovers. Which I don't see happening. What I can see happening is her dying and him somehow trying to blame the Amarr for it, and trillions of bloodthirsty savages being dumb enough to believe it.

As much as it pains me to say it, right now our best hope is with Mentas Blaque. The Federation caught the assassin alive, and while Mentas may be a cold-hearted bastard I'd never doubt for a second that he's damn good at his job. You can bet your last ISK that Blaque is putting the screws to that guy's thumbs as we speak and he will squeeze the truth out of him eventually.

Whether or not the public is ever shown that truth is another story, because if everything I've said so far is true then we've got 50+ dead civilians worth of political shitstorm waiting to happen between two supposed Allies. Would Roden sweep those bodies under a rug for the sake of political expediency? He'd be a fool not to. But being no fool, he wouldn't forget either, and he'd give a few discrete orders of his own in return. I, for one, would rather face an Inquisition than end up on the Black Eagle's list of "unpersons."

So for that sake of innocent people everywhere I honestly I hope that I'm wrong, that is was just a lone nut and that Midular getting hit was nothing more than pure coincidence. I sincerely hope that Midular makes a full recovery and that she continues her campaign of peace. But I'm not betting on any of it.

I can see your anger now has caused symptoms of schizophrenia. You should definitely seek help while you can.

I pray for Chief Midular's recovery.
