Or rather, no where that doesn't involve mining asteroids in deep space and being lost to history.


Don't underestimate the fulfillment that can come from commercial endeavors. Not everyone has to be in combat all day, everyday.

Don't underestimate the combat that can come with commercial endeavors, either. I call myself an industrialist more than a combat pilot, but I spend more time fleeted up and responding to hostile action than I do tinkering with the labs, component arrays and shipyards.

Oh, absolutely. I was not insinuating that combat is necessarily avoidable - merely that some can live just as fulfilling lives without combat as their impetus.

It would take a very little work to overcome this slight stain on your record, believe me, and a short period of solid work would mean that such trifling indiscretions would no longer put your standing in jeopardy.

Fight on, soldier! The good fight needs more able bodies.

Due to recent events sir, I think you might have been correct. I recently completed a special task and my officer status has been reinstated. This time I intend to keep it that way.

No offence to anyone currently a member of Deep Core Mining or in the mining profession by the way, it's just not how I pictured my place in the fight.

Welcome back!

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.

My commercial enterprise is the farming of Gallentean hulls within the Blackrise region. Ive never known an easier more fulfilling profession.

Why bother hassling asteroids when you can skip the middle man and harvest minerals and modules directly?

Congratulations! You are following the right path, Citizen!

And remember, if you are a simple worker, you just a State corporation employee, nothing more. Only by serving as a soldier of the State you can be real Citizen!

Be proud with your loyalty, and you will be rewarded.
Go forth and bring glory to the State!

Honored are the dead, for their legacy guides us.

In memory of Tibus Heth, Caldari State Executor YC110-115, Hero and Patriot.
