Perimiter – The Caldari Navy has released a report revealing Admiral Visera Yanala's clone failed to activate following her podding during the battle of Caldari Prime. The State has reacted in shock, as the admiral has widely become viewed as a cultural hero following indications she acted to preserve lives on Caldari Prime as her ship was destroyed in orbit.

State Executor Tibus Heth subsequently gave a statement calling Yanala's death, “a tragic cloning accident.” He went on to say, “I can only presume that, as she concentrated to take her final acts, she forsook her own safety and hesitated so her capsule was caught. What happened next is still uncertain, but it only serves to make her sacrifice even greater.”

Across the State, citizens have expressed their shock at the news. Several businesses have closed early, including CBD Sell Division. Each of the megacorps has also announced they are permitting non-essential personnel to leave early if they wish, in order to attend one of the numerous memorial ceremonies.

The Chief Executive Panel has indicated it will investigate the circumstances surrounding the cloning accident. It has announced the traditional opening bell to the State Stock Exchange will not be rung tomorrow morning, instead being replaced with an eight-gun salute in Admiral Yanala's honor.

While other aspects of her career bear discussion -such as her destruction of CONCORD Marshall-class DED ship- , any loss of capsuleer life due to cloning failure is to be mourned. It reminds us all that our existence is fragile, and that we should respect the risks.

My condolences go out to Admiral Yanala's family, and to her comrades. I never met her but from what I understand she was a true professional who did her duty right up to the very end. One can ask no more of those who serve their respective nations with honor and pride, whatever flag they pledge their allegiance to.

I do this for many reasons. I do it because I believe it is right. I do it because I will profit by it. These all consolidate into one reason: I do it because I can.

I hate to be all conspiracy-hatstand, but isn't this just a trifle convenient?

Can anyone point me at other instances of capsuleer cloning equipment failing this badly before?

On top of that, we're stuck with commercial-grade equipment, while she no doubt had access to (superiour) military-grade cloning technology.

The State surges with support for Admiral Yanala, and now we find out she died to an accident, 2 months after the day it happened? Very convenient, Heth, very convenient indeed.

Despite having being in the fleet that probably shot her down in the first place, and given the details the CEP/CN investigation revealed about her final actions, I don't think she deserved the fate that had been dealt to her. Perhaps that now, after 200y, the Caldari and Gallente people can finally look at one and the same person, and both see a hero. And that they can both look at another such person, and both see the villain.

Until all are free...

It is, fair means or foul from her death aside, someone benefits a great deal from her demise.

What are the rumor mongering old ladies going on about? The Admiral had no known enemies and nobody stands to gain anything upon her unfortunate death. This is loss of a great great person, not some plot from a B-grade Impetus holo flick.

Coincidences do not make conspiracies. Look into the concept of apophenia, capsuleers. We're fed so much data, that the relative dearth we receive from accredited news sources causes us to assume all data is connected.

That said, it is a terrible tragedy that Yanala-haani's cloning bay failed to activate properly. I hope that the responsible parties are relieved of their duties. Further, I will state that while I don't believe that the State or CalNav was obligated to tell us of this failure, the CalNav surely knew of the cloning failure soon after the fall of the Shiigeru, and would have done well to acknowledge this technical failure when initial after-action reports were released.

Altered consciousness can be quite enlightening. You should try it sometime. And drugs aren't the only way to accomplish it.

why are you being around the bush with it?

But I don't think Tibus Heth will continue to benefit from her death. There are going to be questions to be ask, and answers that need to be given (i.e: how , and why).

Perfect environment for conspiracy theories to fester among the populace, and all most likely to be to set Tibus Heth in the negative light, further eroding his support among the populace.

There is a storm brewing in the horizon, soon darkness will come.

I like to have all the evidence before I start making accusations. Jumping the gun tends to get people unnecessarily killed for no reason, thought you'd have learned that lesson by now.

I am really only just beginning to grasp how honoured I am to have fought her.

May your next cycle deliver you the peace of spirit you deserve, Admiral Yanala.

Am I the only one who doesn't see any kind of foul play at work here?
I cannot possibly see how Heth stands to benefit from having one of his most experienced admirals executed covertly. If he wanted her got rid of, there are much quieter and more effective ways of sidelining someone you don't like than having them killed.

I do this for many reasons. I do it because I believe it is right. I do it because I will profit by it. These all consolidate into one reason: I do it because I can.

No, but I felt now was not the best time to discuss it nor this thread the appropriate place. See the thread "Where is Admiral Yanala?"

Admiral Yanala was a capsuleer?

I should have seen that coming.

On a side note, I can't help but think that old Tibus Heth wasn't being completely sincere. He hasn't much cared for life before, shown by his extermination of the first generation of clone soldiers, his blatant disregard for the lives of protesters, and his overall mental instability. That said, I can't blame him. Grab hold of political power wherever it may be and whatever form it may hold. He needs it.

The Caldari put business before pleasure. The Gallente put business in pleasure.

Some of my last communications with the admiral:

[ 115.03.22 12:18:09 ] Che Biko > I do find it incredibly funny that all these crazies are not considered a threat, while the Kimotoro fleet thought my shuttle was. I guess at least you are more level-headed than your predecessor, Admiral Yanala.
[ 115.03.22 12:19:04 ] Visera Yanala > Mr Biko, The Kimotoro Fleet is not the fleet that has been guarding the Shiigeru for the last five years.
[ 115.03.22 12:22:11 ] Che Biko > My bad. I do hope you can stop the situation from spinning out of control, Admiral Yanala.
[ 115.03.22 12:22:44 ] Visera Yanala > The Shiigeru's weapons are primed for low orbit engagement at a distance from surface of 325 kilometres.
[ 115.03.22 12:23:13 ] Che Biko > ...That's not what I had in mind, exactly.
[ 115.03.22 12:23:56 ] Che Biko > I hope you consider all possible consequences.

[ 115.03.22 14:09:28 ] Che Biko > Trust your eyes, you will kill eachother. Trust your veins, you can all go home in peace.
[ 115.03.22 14:09:39 ] Visera Yanala > ALERT - 37th Squadron - First set of orbital strike co-ordinates received - awaiting fire order!
[ 115.03.22 14:11:43 ] Che Biko > Yanala, I hope you make wise decisions.

By the looks of it, she acted in the way I desired as well as she could, and I am grateful for that.

[ 115.03.19 23:43:38 ] Che Biko > Admiral Yanala, on behalf of the Doves, I welcome you to Luminaire. If your actions match your words, than you are indeed the right woman to take command of the Kimotoro fleet.
[ 115.03.20 00:19:55 ] Che Biko > Admiral Yanala, I hope one day you will be as respected among the Gallente as Admiral Noir once was among the Caldari.

My condolences to the friends and family of Visera Yanala. I think New Eden is a bit darker without her. May she rest in peace.

Not that this will do anything to stop the delusions of capsuleer immortality...
