For Blood Raiders, such as the OP, I remember from my pre-capsuleer days that the authorities, after interrogating them as to other secret members of their cult, used to burn them at the stake on a bonfire. The ashes simply blew away, scattered, and dissipated to the winds.


How barbaric.

Personally, any and all Imperial POWs that I encounter, I arrange for a prisoner transfer for any Sani Sabik POWs, with whichever Imperial authority I can arrange a meeting with.

1LT Kernher has been most helpful in the past with that sort of thing.

Most helpful indeed.

Except that I only am willing to receive people. I do not offer people in return.

I know that I'm just a stupid Matari slave and so you figured you could just give them to me and then claim that I offered you people in return in order to attack my integrity and call me a hypocrite for yelling at people like Pyre over it, but I am smart enough to keep proof.

So **** off with the attempted character assassination.

Oh my, it seems I have upset you.

Clearly not my intention.

I was intending to annoy Lunarisse, not yourself.

Tragic.

Certainly the loss of human life incurred by the actions of capsuleers should be seen as due cause for the expression of moral outrage for those unable to look in the mirror, such a unique occurrence that it no doubt is.

Truly, a tragedy I shall reflect upon, my heart overflowing with empathy and compassion at such loss of life while I watch the upcoming Alliance Tournament.

I believe in getting the maximum amount of use from the material at hand, Edmund. Anyone can be brave when death is a button push away and over in an instant. Enduring the reading of the charges. The listing of the evidence. Seeing the hilt of the sword turned from them, the black capshades, the ruffle of drumbeats... The metronome like precision of the marching of the escort to take them 'from this place to another place, there to be executed by firing squad...

It gives a criminal time to appreciate the weight of the apparatus of state as it rolls over them. And it gives your own men the opportunity to reflect on the price of treason.

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.

Yeah, well, it's not exactly my place to give criminals a trial. The only disciplinary hearing I attend to pertains to my crew and my support staff. Criminals and convicts we dredged out of some wreck are delivered to the agents and what happens to them is their own business. Otherwise, I will just launch them out of the airlock.

If we are discussing disciplinary problems in the crew and support staff, punishment is meted out on a case-by-case basis. If it's the case of one murdering the other over something or other I will him lynched by the rest of the staff for a day, then send him out by the airlock without protective equipment of any description.

If the issue crops up in a ship, the lynching still occurs. The execution is meted out by the way of jetcans in the middle of nowhere with disabled transponders. He can reflect on the things he did while being stoned and while waiting for the air to run out.

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Impressing upon we children of God the magnitude of your folly clearly serves only your own perverted sense of self-worth.

You serve yourself and not the Almighty, and there will be no Paradise for you, only Torment.

I cannot help but notice something. For someone claiming to be doing the work of God and such...you look very grumpy. I would imagine a prophet or someone hearing the direct word of God to be more...happy or peaceful looking.

With all due respect... this is crap.

You don't save people by firing at them. And attack was to destroy the target, not save some slaves. All casualties are just collateral damage. And amount of them is random. They all 4034 could have died. Or survived. It is Maker's will it happened this way, but not another.

All is visible to the light of the Lord, and needs not such displays of hubris as shown in numbers.

Is it not over-stretched pride which has lain countless of the Faithful low?

These activities detract from the lesson, as the behavior of Shameful Holders can do, and does not teach of the power of the Lord. They merely show your actions in the way that eyes unseeing of the knowledge you hold would translate it.

Would you raise CONCORD statistics above Divine Message?

Who exactly are you beholden to? CONCORD, Capsuleers, or Divinity?

I'm honestly curious.

My guess is that Kim hasn't had to think in terms of saving people very much, usually just being focused on body count.

As far as I'm concerned, the slaves that die when you hull one of Nappy's ships are the lucky ones. The slaves he keeps/gets home safely are the ones you should be crying over.

Even the survivors you recover are a handful. My staff has been handling three I rescued from the wreck of one of his Tormentors last night and they are hardly functional considering the trauma they have suffered. I will do my best with them, but I can only imagine the problems the Stormcrows are facing with two thousand of these poor, wretched creatures.

While glorifying God in the destruction of the Wicked is of course my main concern, I also want to impress and inspire the Faithful will my great sacrifices, and therefore I need public records so that the people can know how many slaves are being destroyed.
