((For a bit of my perspective on being a player for 10 years, see here ))

Greetings, pilots. Some of you may know me; most, no doubt, do not.

I find myself approaching something of a milestone: It was May 25th 105 when I was officially certified as a pod pilot. When I first undocked - in an Ibis, with the standard issue mining laser and civilian grade defenses - I could scarcely imagine where both I and the cluster would be a decade later.

It seems appropriate as this anniversary passes by to make note of it. To that end, I will be holding a small event, an opportunity to socialize, look back, and look forward.

The party will be held aboard one of my ships, the Frenetic Evolution (('The Frenetic Evolution' is the chat channel to join)), at the Ishukone Factory, Planet 3, Moon 8 in Korama. It is an open invitation, though I reserve the right to refuse entrance to some. Attire will be semi-formal, food and drinks will be provided. Holo-presence is permitted and the station does have an Interbus hub as well. Unseemly behavior will be discouraged. Outside weapons will not be permitted inside my personal hangar, or TNR's corporate premises.

The event will start at 18:00 on the 26th of May, and continue until it is over - I expect it to last at least several hours.

Please direct any questions to myself or my XO, Amieta Invelen.

I shall be there with bells on.

I encourage everyone to come join us in celebrating one of the first Empyreans.

Render unto Khanid the things which are Khanid's; and unto God the things that are God's.

Beware of "players" offering "parties" on board their ship. Ladies, watch your drinks.

I don't know, what did you hear.
BUT IT IS NOT TRUE.

Gah.

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

I'll see what I can do, Silver. It's been a while since Amieta's birthday party on the Ideal.

Looking forward to it.

I won't be able to attend as I have business elsewhere, but I wish you all enjoy such a celebration.

As an aside, I would like to commend Night-haan as a capsuleer and a citizen who is generous with his time. After my recent return to active pilot status, I was engaged by an overwhelming force of Guristas ships. I managed to slip away, but had no reasonable, reliable way to engage the force. Silver Night offered his assistance, and arrived with a Tengu in short order. It was my first exposure to that ship, and so I was impressed by both Silver Night's willingness to assist me, and by the considerable durability of the ship he flew.

I will endeavor to be at the party. As Hanaya-kirjuun said, with bells on.

Congrats on being a capsuleer for 10 years. You have certainly withstood the test of time which I'm sure was no easy task for what we have to deal with on a daily basis.

Silas did not show up at the party. Not even for a few minutes.

She owes me a dance the next time I see her.
