Today marks the 7th anniversary of me founding my order, and starting operations to rescue people from space, and talking to them about stuff.

I intend to keep at it, because it sure looks like that kind of thing is needed in the cluster.

I've done a lot, some of which met with controversy.

People dismiss me as an airhead. Well, they don't know anything about me. So there.

Besides, they need me, more than I need them.

Some people say I'm a ray of sunshine. Well, without sunshine, darkness has no form or definition.

So all those dark brooding people, need someone like me, otherwise they can just fumble around in their own darkness, stubbing their toes and poking themselves in the eye by mistake.

I'm not sure where I was going with this, so, bye !

I think the question that is on everyone's mind at seeing this.

Do you like pie?

"Life is as a storm, one must be prepared for the hardship and scorn. But with in this is a light, one for which we must fight. For hope is our weapon and our dreams are our shield. When fully armed we can not be felled from the field."

What does it mean, rescuing people from space? Sending them into planets?..

The important question is: what do you do with the people after you "rescue" them?

Minmatar of course should be chained. Collared. Stuffed full of Vitoc. Whipped. Chipped. Sacrificed upon the Altar of God.

But I'm guessing Lady Dougans doesn't do any of those things. But she should.

I was a bit worried that you might be a Disciple of Ston, but now that I have disabused myself of that notion, I would like to thank you for your years of tireless service in the name of sunshine (even if I must sometimes poke myself in the eye to know that I have eyes).

But perhaps it is time for a change. Might I interest you in the Gospel of St. Ocilan?

All you people who brood too much, please, for your own sanity, go take up a hobby that isn't brooding. Not one of those 'hobbies' where you watch furrier videos. That's a diversion, not a hobby. Go take up something that will take hours of your time.

Also, go baseline once in a while and get some fresh air in your system.

The flesh body and the plastic-like brain need maintenance too.

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.

Certainly, New Prophet Nauplius. It was in fact your comment about Citadels which made me take a new look at the Gospel of St. Ocilan. The wormhole which led Mankind to this Cluster was a titanic monster. Deceived into coveting untapped natural resources, our progenitor civilization constructed a star gate of similarly titanic proportions.

While I largely discount the possibility of individuals committing sins which might come to the attention of the Creator of the Universe, I do not discount the possibility that Mankind Itself might transgress sufficiently against the Divine Order to warrant punishment. Constructing the EVE Gate and forcing a titanic wormhole to remain open indefinitely disturbed said Order. In retribution, God destroyed the offending construct.

We were separated from our true place in the Heavens and this Cluster became Hell.

All born here are Damned.

For Salvation, we must undo the terrible mistake of the past and return from whence we came. It was the responsibility of Amarr to see that Salvation to its Glorious End, but the Empire has been repeatedly distracted. The corrupt layer of filth impeding Amarr's realization of her Divine Purpose must be burned away, allowing the Golden Fleet to lead Mankind back to the True Heavens.

The Gospel of St. Ocilan might therefore be interpreted as an admonition to save Mankind from space.

Sister Dougans, it is an honor and delight for me to congratulate you and your Order! As High Priestess of the Loyal Order of the Crimson Moon I want to say a job well done in all that you have done over the years.

To rescue those who have gone astray from the Light, or abused by their masters, facing an uncertain death in the cold harshness of space, it warms my heart to know that your influence has reached deep into my soul and taken up a mission such as yours has reminded me of yet still another chapter in our great history.

Even tho' I may be a pirate, I still try to do my service of servitude to the church and uphold The Scriptures as best as I can, and despite my own short comings have learned a great deal from you in observance of your work.

Again, my congratulations.

Amarr Victor!

As Enkil Akheteru has been stripped of his rank and title and banished from the Tribe for his crimes, allow me as Cheiftess and Caravan Master of Clan Du'uma Fiisi to express our enduring gratitude for the role that you and your order played in helping us save the lives of more than 600,000 Minmatar who have gone on to enjoy fruitful and productive lives as free men and women in the Republic.

Clan Du'uma Fiisi is forever in your debt. Congratulations on your Order's anniversary.
