Announcement


A fleet containing members of (at least) Ethical Carnage, CVA, and PIE has desecrated the Demon Summoning Temple, incapacitating its weapons and reinforcing its shields.

The Temple, located at Oyeman X, Moon 20 will exit reinforcement at about 19.17 on 2015.08.07.

When the shields exit reinforcement, the sinners who desecrated the Temple today will return to complete their work. They will find a host of demons, summoned over the next day and a half by my demonologists to defend the Temple. Will they also find pilots from across New Eden who have chosen to stand with the Red God in this hour of trial? Will anyone take the Red God's offer of assured admission to Paradise and defend the Demon Summoning Temple tomorrow?



Congratulations, you have hit a new depth of dishonor.

As if your life over the past few years as a Sanist wasn't enough, you decide to delve into Sorcery and Black Magic...something I believe even your fellow Sanists would frown upon.

Then, when a coalition decides to shut down your latest endeavor, you make a public announcement about it here in the hopes that the enemies of Amarr will show up and pull your bloody nuts out of the fire?

You, who have killed and subjugated countless Matari are now trying to hide behind their skirts?

I will do my level best to show up for this party.

I would like to also see a temporary cease-fire between the 24th and the TLF, if possible, so we can both attend to this situation. Yes, other pirates and undesirables will doubtless show up. Maybe at least until the tower lies in ruins? Then we can all go back to killing each other as CONCORD intended.

I'm sure friends from the State and Federation would also like to be a part of the boot party we're going to throw.

I think you can expect this treatment to happen to you on a fairly regular basis Nauplius. You and Funk and others of your ilk need to learn a lesson that though we may be monsters in form and function, there are some lines that you just don't cross.

This is a reckoning.







People who would call themselves "Sanists", do so in the privacy of their station quarters. They are cowards. Weak scum that hide behind their alliances. People like me and Nauplius do not have to hide. We face the tide and overcome as god's chosen.

If there is any possible way that I can get out there for it, I intend on helping take this tower down. If I get shot at by others, well I kinda expect it though I'm hoping my gut feeling is wrong.

You are aware that the 24th isn't under centralised capsuleer control, right?


That was indeed the point. I can't guarantee any sort of behaviour outside of U'K and Aldrith Shutaq can't guarantee any behaviour outside PIE. I have my doubts we'd be the only ones on field.

There are dead crewmen's names on a list in my office that I can attribute directly to broken cease-fires. I'm looking for a reason to trust the 24th in the face of a cause like this, but they are conspicuous in their absence.


A polite reminder you cannot speak for the whole of the Matari Militia either. However, as per Captain Shutaq's words, we are taking seriously what efforts we can make to allow interested parties to assist. Please mail him.

Oh, come on, Mizhara, take a chance! Think how upset it'd make Nauplius to have his precious death-temple destroyed by a group of Amarr and Minmatar putting aside their differences and working together. Isn't that worth the risk?

My point wasn't so much you didn't say it as much as you keep banging the drum about the 24th as a whole, while we're willing to look at individual cases come as it may. My apologies if my wording didn't lend the correct meaning, that's my fault.

I am willing to risk myself and such crew that would volunteer knowing it'd likely be a death sentence given previous experiences with such cease-fires. I am not particularly interested in leading my brethren into a trap, though. Particularly when the only tangible thing I can show them are lossmails from previous attempts.

Especially given how publicly the location, time and pretty much guaranteed presence of sufficient ships to take down a Medium Dark Blood tower. I might entertain the notion that PIE is trustworthy, but I also know they won't lift a finger when Pyre brings a fleet to crash the party.

I can't in good conscience risk the crews and ships of my comrades in arms in such a situation, when it will with almost certainly lead to their deaths.

If we give our word, we will stand by it. We are still debating who we should give it to, however.

It has been concluded that no pilot or entity that has declared hostile intent to the Empire or the forces of PIE, CVA and SFRIM will be allowed in fleet or on field. The factors that might have allowed for this have become untenable and we strongly believe any truce would be doomed to failure.

For the safety of all parties involved, I urge everyone to keep away from the tower until the operation is complete. The important thing here is to make sure the tower goes down, and as we are the ones who began the attack, we will also finish it. If you value the lives of the slaves within the tower, I ask that no one disrupt this operation.

Thank you to all who would heed this.

A sensible recommendation, in my view. It strikes me as an internal matter for Amarrian forces/mental health services anyway.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

I have been contacted by a representative of the SFRIM corporation indignant that her corporation's contribution to the Demon Summoning Tower's desecration was not noted in my announcement.

Let it be proclaimed, then, that SFRIM is among those slave lovers who value the welfare of a few thousand filthy Minmatar subhumans over the will of God, the Red God, the Blood God.

I have to admit, I find this... disturbing. If you want people to set aside their differences in order to oppose a common enemy - as many of you have called upon members of other Powers to do in order to oppose the Drifters - then you need to allow them to do so.

I've received assurances that I will not be fired upon if I arrive to assist with the tower. Me. A Goon. Consider this well: we just burned Amarr. We are still coming for Providence. And yet, you're more willing to tolerate my presence on the field so long as I'm not carrying a cyno for a 'goon hotdrop' than you are to tolerate the presence of the other group of people who will be most motivated to destroy this tower.

Are you mad?

Will I carry a cyno? Of course not. Would I bring in a goon hotdrop? Of course not. But I have less of a stake in this than the Ushra'khan. I have far less assistance to offer than the Ushra'khan. You have called on them to assist with the Drifters attack the military of the Amarr Empire, but you refuse to trust them when the lives of Matari slaves are at stake?

Are. You. MAD?

If you want others to assist with the true threats, extend your hand now and demonstrate to them that doing so will not simply gain them a bullet in the back when they've finished fighting for your Empress. Do it now. Do it before you cut yourself off from aid against the next Drifter incursion. I don't know if you've noticed, but they're getting bigger.

Actually, if you would have read the mail I sent you, you would find that those assurances have been retracted.

And the decision to exclude militia wartargets and reds was not entirely up to us. A certain third party will be involving itself, it seems, and we will be unable to predict how they might behave. This is not a matter of stubbornness, this is a matter of prudence.

It's like they said, they started it, they can finish it. So lets just let them do it and not make a scandal about it.

The mail you sent appeared to refer to any additional assets I might bring, rather than me specifically. Regardless, perhaps if you are going to make these appeals to others on behalf of the Amarr Empire, you should stand up to 'a certain third party'. Or at the very least, let those who are volunteering to assist know who that third party is, and what risk they run - and then reiterate assurances that you will not fire upon those who have arrived to assist you.

Let the dishonor and craven behavior stain those who engage in it. As it is, you do nothing but push away and insult those you have elsewhere asked to assist you.

We have notified all necessary parties. Again, this is for the best. Just let us do our job and next time Ushra'Khan can lead an operation and do things their way.
