Greetings Uriam Kador, and Catiz Tash-Murkon, greetings to my family members, and greetings to the major holders and partners of these Great Amarr Houses.

As you well know, my Mother Rainier Singularity (Kador Family) and my Father Philipp Singularity (Tash-Murkon), rest his soul, founded our Minor Amarr House Singularity with the goal of one day becoming a Great Amarr House and take our rightful place among the stars of our Great Golden Empire. Recently I have been named by the people as the Harbinger of Faith, and Pope of New Eden, I have tried my best to represent the honor and grandeur of our three Houses, and to live up to my expectations as I wear these unique garments bequeathed upon me. My task is challenging but this I must forebear to bring forth this message from the people.

During these recent difficult times we have seen challenges to the whole of New Eden. Never ending war between the Minmatar and Amarr, the Gallente and Caldari, Sansha Invasions continuing, multiple pirate factions raiding, and now the threat of the Drifters apparent. The mysterious calamity that has befallen the Jovian Directorate and the collapse of their entire star gate network is also of immediate concern.

There is no doubt, that the residents of New Eden sense the loss of stability, the sense of doom, and are having difficulty finding hope. This environment is effecting our House Singularity affairs of business, and the quality of our spiritual life. Rumors run rampant as our family turns to our Empress for comfort, for leadership, and for action. Yet, in vein we train our channels to the Emperor Family subspace channel and hear only cold silence during these trying times sans but the recent declaration on The Scope.

Announcements of new shield technology for new types of structures as ‘a gift' by the Empress was made to the general populace of New Eden, not to the Great Amarr House Ardishapur Family, nor the Great Amarr House Kor-Azor Family, nor even from my contacts in the Great Amarr House Sarum Family knew of this pending release of technology. Although my Minor Amarr House Singularity would not expect to be in direct contact with Emperor Family, my relatives in the Great Amarr House Kador Family, nor the Great House Tash-Murkon Family have notified me that they have had no notice whatsoever.

My retired friends and serving shipmates in the Amarr Navy (and former 7th Fleet) also had no notice, and even those with high clearances (to which I’m still active) also had no notice of this weapons export.

While many may believe that a shield technology is not a weapon, those unlearned in siege warfare believe that powerful shield will save lives. Those of the military academies and learned of military history know all to well that a fortress, a moat, and high walls only delay defeat, and with even greater loss of life for the attackers and defenders. This day marks a day of turmoil to come.

It is by request of several factions within my family members of House Singularity, most of my relatives in House Kador, and even more in House Tash-Murkon, that we call for comment and discussion in a rational, non-violent means, in a manner that abides in legal way of Amarrian Law to address the suspected and apparent irrational behavior we have seen from Jamyl Sarum I, Empress of the Amarr Empire, Harbinger of Hope, Sword of the Righteous.

I have no place to directly ask Ardishapur Family, Kor-Azor Family, and Sarum Family to participate in these discussions, as a Minor Amarr House, but this conversation would need to include these Great Houses to participate as this is a serious matter for our Golden Empire.

I do humbly request Urium Kador and Catiz Tash-Murkon for guidance in this regard, or a statement of support of such a conversation, or to the opposite, even a statement against this discourse, as any statement will better guide our populace in the engulfing silence.

The state of the Empire, if not the state of New Eden, rests upon your great shoulders.

With due respect and humility, I Thank You both for your consideration.

Maximilian Singularity, Chairman House Singularity (Kador/Tash-Murkon Heritage)

To be honest I'm waiting to see what the Drifters actually do before defining them as a 'threat' to all of New Eden. If they only threaten Amarr space aggressively I would need to know the reason why before intervening for either side. It may well be tied to the irrational behaviour Max mentions in some way and I certainly don't jump to conclusions. Hell, for all we know Amarr ships may have encroached upon and engaged Drifter forces in their home first and this is retaliation. We have no idea how the Empress acquired certain tech advances.

Having said that, whilst I may despise some of the Amarr practices and certainly don't believe in their sky fairy I won't stand by and watch innocent civilians killed.

No more of this, please.

Rodj, you're better than this.

He'd only be a heretic if Sarum was your god.

as for not listening to a capsuleer... isn't your empress one?

While your statement is true good sir, it should be noted that The Scope made the first 'public' claim and declaration of the Empress' actions irrational, but it is by far not the first claim made.

This matter was brought up for debate at the Symposium of Emergent Threats and the matter was discussed at length by several Capsuleer representatives from all parts of New Eden. In fact, it was the number two issue only behind that of the current Drifter Threat that was discussed. The fervor and passion of evidence presented by the attendees requires further investigation, to which I support a peaceful and just discussion.

One must not take sides yet, as there is no jury. However, one should facilitate truth as we are free Amarrian people, that are of free mind (at least I hope this is still the case).

You good sir are known for your even temper and rational. I would encourage you to host your own seminar of discussions regarding the general state of the Amarr Empire. I would be interested in the results of the findings of that council as well.

I still have no idea why this heretic clown is still talking or even more so why any one listens.
