Intergalactic Summit

In light of recent events concerning the Directive Enforcement Division's actions, I must make this statement:

We do not know CONCORD's reasoning for having undertaken such aggressive action; they not only seem adversarial, but confrontational and demeaning as well. However, there must be a reason. Between the Amarr Navy's recent movement into Genesis and Commander Vesren's placing the Genesis fleet on high alert, I have begun to feel that something has been discovered or stumbled upon in Genesis; something which has prompted the Assembly, through Odo Korachi, brigadier general of the Genesis fleet, to demand the brain sample of Hilen Tukoss.

These actions seem rushed, if not "desperate" , on the Assembly's part: they need the Cerebral Slice.

I do not believe it is the right choice to outright condemn and oppose CONCORD on this issue; we know little-to-nothing of what their reasoning is for these actions. In order to prepare for and learn of whatever is to come of the Drifters, cooperation is key; should we splinter now, we stand no chance whatsoever, should the storm start. I maintain previous offers on agreements concerning collaborative research on what has been found; I will remain neutral, if not inclined to work alongside the Assembly in spirit of discovering there is to be known concerning the Drifter threat.

Agreed. I'd prefer some cooperation, but the shadiness and severity of these actions are astounding. I do hope we get some answers.

If CONCORD truly cares for the security of the cluster, they must drop the charade along with the charges.

They want the remains, we want the information. Quid pro quo.

Sometimes I wonder if the frequenters of this channel know the meaning of "operational security".

I agree with you, that if CONCORD and the DED are this desperate to get ahold of the article of brain matter, then it must be due to some reason. And if they're willing to place bounties on the compatriots of the one who's taken the item in question, to the point of seemingly forcefully incentivizing the others to rat out this guy, then it must be quite important.

The only possibility that remains, in my mind, is that they discovered something related to the sample out in Genesis - something that they will try to prevent us from learning at all costs. Their distrust of Empyreans is... Inconvenient, but not unjustified in some cases. I only wish we could discover what they may have themselves found, if that's the case. Of course, there's little to no chance that they'll ever tell us.

Well, with any luck DED doesn't understand any of this either and you'll be set free and off to do... fun stuff... in good time!

I am not sure this is the case. There are several statements from CONCORD which beg questioning



Firstly, the DED were present during the initial biopsy of the brain. They had every opportunity to retrieve a sample for identification purposes, and i am positive that Lucas and the others would be happy to provide further DNA evidence to such effect.

Secondly, burial? You want to formally bury a piece of charred brain matter instead of testing it further? Lies. They obviously have something else planned for it, but refuse to disclose this information. There has been enough secrecy on these matters, and Capsuleers have been the ONLY entity that has shown any headway and honestly so far.



Finally, it is interesting how they quietly dismissed Eifer and Co. involvement here. No official statements, no further news, just a quiet Scope headline that was snuck in under the obviously more important new federation vessal.

CONCORD are manipulating every situation to their advantage, and I for one, am glad that Lucas Raholan is standing against them.

Ugh, this reeks of conspiracy theorism.
I'm out.

I thought... a bit about this...

And while I am rather... shaken at the recent CONCORD directives...

I wonder why people are so quick to point at CONCORD every time ? Is it the perfect culprit ? Scapegoat ?

We have to remember that the issue surrounding Dr Tukoss arose initially when Eifyr got caught by The Scope using leaked information to release the video to the cluster at large.

A video, that was apparently at least 6 months old, if not a year.

Now then, CONCORD acted and interrogated the journalists that pointed at Eifyr.

We also should remember that Eifyr was Dr Tukoss employee. Maybe the question that should be asked is, why Eifyr kept the information to themselves for so long ? Why Eifyr, Tukoss employer, and also indirectly responsible of the Arek Jalaan project, chose to keep that information confidential ? Why CONCORD was left in the dark so that they had to resort to such measures in the first place ?

We complain that CONCORD is hiding information, while evidence could also show that they do not maybe know much more than we do...?

Please do not get me wrong... I feel a bit... betrayed by CONCORD with my position in SFRIM... And I do not really want to dwelve into conspiracy theories. Rather, I feel that a lot of people may be completely mistaking who to blame and what for, or mixing everything up...
