Intergalactic Summit

Vaari,

We have the facilities in place now to handle complaints like these. Maybe Vigilante justice is allowed in your holding, it is not in Providence. You never did seem to care about rules, did you? No, you are a mighty Lord in the Amarrian Empire, rules do not apply to you it seems.

You personally have been guilty of many infractions regarding the protection of faith act, yet this does not seem to interest you. It seems to be that all others must bow to you and you yourself can do what you will. Those times are over, and I believe you need to look deep within yourself for the cause of these problems.

I fervently hope that your KOS status is never ever rescinded and that the theology institute will be able to flourish without you with help of our friends from loyalist alliances. In these loyalist alliances, you can find true nobility. Patience in teaching, openness to discussion and education, the way it should be…

With Respect
Erika Wallker

I am sure they will be fair in their judgement. You, however, do not even give the council a chance and immediately assume a victim role. This is exactly the kind of childlike destructive behavior that has caused so many issues for Operation Deliverance. I have told you many times that you are not a soldier fighting for deliverance but instead are its greatest enemy. You personally have pushed more people away from the faith than all the Minmatar put together.

You have the unique gift of being the most annoying person in existence that preaches constantly on how you believe we all should act. Yet can never find a fault with himself. Anyways, it does not matter. You had your chance to see reason. I shall repeat what I said before: I hope your KOS status is never revoked. The region will do much better without you. My only hope is that an open minded and patient person will take up preaching and converting in Providence instead of you.

With respect,
Erika Wallker

Negative and destructive. Your two main qualities and the sole reason why you will never be leader of that institute.

Open minded does not mean accept everything. It means listening to what others have to say and have a discussions with them to bring them on to the right path by educating them in the faith. You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar. You would do well to read that line a couple of times, maybe a few million times.

I really hate to agree with Lord KOS on anything, but you know you kinda undercut your case with that second bit, right? Cuz... that's basically the gist of Amarr values and faith, right there: "the 'rules' are for other people. Whatever we do is fine because the magical sky-fairy said so."



Yep. That sounds pretty damned Amarr to this Sebbie's ears.

Having lived with Amarrian's for several years of my capsuleer career I can attest to this not being the case. Perhaps 10 or 20 years ago, maybe even in some corners of New Eden far more recently, but they have their rules and scriptures, like many religions - they can be taken out of context, or bent to their own ideals. But for the vast majority this is no longer the case.

Hail loyalists!

As a long-time resident of Providence, I can confirm what Erika Wallker has detailed here.

Many of us have shown him compassion and offered advice, despite his attacks on CVA diplomats and pilots in Providence. Sadly, I feel Lord Vaari has lost his mind. His age and admitted drug and alcohol use have caused what appears to be brain damage. He often forgets what he's saying mid-sentence and appears to be genuinely disturbed. He's recently said the most foul things in CVA-Diplo channels, defying all logic. On CVA forums, he has called both Miss Wallker and I things I can not even repeat; foul things. Yet we still tried to always allow him a certain leeway because he is a Lord.

I was raised by my uncle, an Amarrian, and was schooled in Amarr after my family was killed in the Great War. I'm very familiar with Amarr tradition and the very title of this communication is a bold, ouright lie. I have never, ever seen an Amarrian lord speak and do the things Lord Varri has done. It's unbecoming of even peasants, let alone an Earl.

Despite his distraction and incessant, lunical ramblings on forums daily, CVA allowed him to stay and do his work in Providence until - and only until - he violated his promised, earlier agreement with the magistrate. He was warned and counseled by many, yet he persisted.

It is Lord Vaari himself who attacked Amarrian traditions, not CVA. Again, I feel compassion for him, because I know his age, drug and alcohol use have rotted his brain. It's sad to see and despite it all, I still hold hope that one day Lord Vaari will see the error of his ways and begin to act like a true Amarrian lord.

Respectfully,

RAdm Valkorsia

You know this just sounds like awesome ginormous apples that can be a whole pie by themselves, right?

Then it shall contain Vaari as well. There you go, multiple fruits.

While that's not totally wrong, Arrendis, it's more like, "It's okay for us to do what God told us to, even if those things would be horrifying if someone else did them to us (if only because that would make it harder for us to bring the rest of the cluster into the service of our god)."

Divine mandate, more than divine permission to do whatever. (Even if some Holders do seem to sometimes interpret it as the latter.) It's not fair, but, it's not supposed to be-- that kind of consideration kind of goes out the airlock once you start throwing phrases like "directed by God" around.

If the Amarr really thought they could do as they pleased there'd be no need for penitence pits. (And I STILL want to know what's up with those, but not badly enough to be "tipped into" one. The Amarr seem to mostly talk it in "you don't want to know" sorts of tones. ... but, I really kind of do. So I guess it's more "I really, really don't want to talk about it.")

Arrendis, if that's really a thing you think? Maybe take a really close look at the Sani Sabik (Blood Raiders and others) living there in Delve. That's kinda what "rules are for other people" actually looks like.

Once you can see the difference this might be a productive discussion to have. There's a connection here, but maybe not the one you think.
