Mr. Horn, believe me when I say this. We want whomever is responsible brought to justice, and subjected to the full recourse of the law. It's entirely possible my suspicions are inaccurate. But if they aren't inaccurate? Those grandstanding Federal senators are going to have a very prominent place on the stage during some phenomenal hearings.

That wasn't very complete, was it?


It was completely complete, they pre-redacted the report so that's all that was ever actually entered.

Not for nothing, but 'Rook' and 'Vulture' don't exactly sound like Federal codenames.

Nor is the Federal Senate stupid enough to pre-ratifify a treaty where the specifics aren't actually enumerated. I think you'll find that your resolutions are about as binding on the Empires as they want them to be, and not one microdot more.

Actually, that may be true.

Seriously, it would be crazy for State operatives to use Caldari ship-naming conventions for their code names-- but possibly brilliant for exactly that reason, except that it would suggest to a suspicious mind that maybe the possibility should at least be considered, so probably not actually worth the trouble unless it's an intentional misdirection meant to keep a little tickle at the back of an investigator's mind, whispering: "Birds ... Caldari cultural markers...."

So, pretty dumb for Caldari, pretty smart for anybody else.

Regardless of when it becomes vulnerable, Sir, your corporation would need a valid declaration of war on the SoCT before you could legally shoot it. It is in highsec afterall, Sir..



The Archangel corporation doesn't usually adhere to concepts of "war dec" and generally spits on things like CONCORD and the SCoT. And you know enough about HORDE to know this doesn't fit into the Admiral's plans.

And do you seriously think my associates of either corporation want to increase the risk of this outbreak getting even further out of control? And here I thought we were friends...

I find it interesting that Upwell can produce these stations without that vulnerability gap. I suppose it's good business practice to sell something with a flaw so that customers keep coming back when it breaks. It tells us a lot about Upwell. In this case, I'm happy to learn their agenda is beneficial for us...for now.

As i read the comms where capsuleers interact, i can only think what a shame is that only on a time of crisis so many different mentalities can be brought together.

At least the social engineering was an positive accomplishment. Let´s see the fallout of all this.

The first proper update on the crisis following the conclusion of the Inquest. Production of 0410 is underway.

This follows yesterday's arrival of large quantities of decontamination equipment.

Oh, those mentalities come out and chat all the time, thats usually the point people put their fingers in their ears and say "la la la" repeatedly. Its just a crisis that they do more than blindly criticise opposing views....

Which is exactly why they'd use it! Nobody would ever believe they're really Caldari!

Well, the weaponization report talked about the aquisition of samples, so they don´t have access to the sample, so they´re probably not Caldari.

I´m looking foward to the declassification of the documents to see where this one came from.

. . .

You're really calling that a 'proper' update?

Now it's an 'antidote', which makes even less sense, because an antidote is something taken to counteract an ingested toxin. Will it be an 'anti-venom' next, for use when people get bitten by a Kyonoke Snake?

This says it's been successfully tested on the Keepstar.. which means that given the time frame, it's been successfully tested for what? Two days? I mean, Saturday, you guys were on the verge of complete panic, and Aria there was writing her final goodbyes.

Two. Days. You what, take it once and you're fine? What even is it? An injection? An implant? A pill? A suppository?

Trillions. In the quarantine zones. Really.

This is worse than having to listen to Haveri try to pronounce the names of ships used by literally hundreds of thousands of capsuleers every damned day. (If in his next reponrt, he pronunces 'Probe' as 'prah-BEY'? I would not at all be surprised.) Needless to say, The Scope's reputation for accuracy is still right up where it was after they claimed the M-O Keepstar was still fully staffed.

It's ... kind of a hybrid of the first and last? She said, squirming slightly?

It's intrusive. Kind of, "Here, we're going to pump you full of a quantity of this stuff we don't dare inject into your blood directly and let you absorb it over time." Maybe at some point someone'll come up with a pill or lozenge (or enormous needle) and getting dosed will get a lot less alarming.

I'm kind of hoping somewhere in here someone will tell me I'm clear either to jump out or just go home. The kinds of stuff I associate with Caldari architecture isn't improving a lot right now. (Yes, I know Upwell isn't Caldari, but their architectural design might as well be. It's got that, "We packed so much tech into this place that we can't be bothered to make your room remotely comfortable; be grateful we didn't give you a coffin-hole to sleep in," aesthetic, verging on ethic, going on.)

People are still pretty happy to not be in the process of dying horribly, though, so, that's lifting my spirits a little.

You know, dealing with Arrendis's constant needling is about as productive as trying to argue with Diana Kim.

Meds are being tested, quarantined people are not being torched, conspiracy is being investigated, people are happy to be alive, factions cooperated and a crisis was averted.

Can we be happy for this and focus on productive actions from now on?
