'All that is required for evil to flourish is that good men stand aside and do nothing'

These are words I have lived by. Words I have tried to spread to the cluster.
When nation returned, I made a heartfelt plea to you people, the 'elite' of this cluster.

Now i watch as you allow Nation to spend weeks at a time in occupation of our space.
Some would despair, some would grow angry.
I have chosen neither of these responses.

Until now.

At 07:35 today i recieved word that the last surviving member of my family died from Vitoxin poisoning.
Her Ammatar holder claims a lack of responsibility for her not recieving either Insorum or Vitoc to negate the effects of this poison.

i believed that the people of this cluster could be just. that our differences could be reconciled.
No longer.

i believed that the capsuleers of this cluster WANTED to end the threat of Nation.
No longer.

I believed that we deserved to exist in this place, that contrary to all the signs, as a people, we deserved a chance to redeem ourselves.

Now? I want nothing more than to see this cluster BURN.

Perhaps it is just shock and anger talking, perhaps it is not, but I no longer care. It is time that all were held to account for their actions.
Justice and peace, the hope of so many, can be brought to all.

And so it shall be.

I am sorry for your loss.

Perhaps you were mistaken in fighting Nation in the first place. How you feel now is remarkably like how I felt immediately prior to casting my lot with them.

People treat freedom like it is a right. At best, it was a privledge, and its one that by and large has proven to be dangerous and undesireable. It is an ordered society that will bring about the world you dream of, not relying on the 'good will' and benevolence of the individual.

Feel free to give me a message if you're willing to cast off the propaganda you've been fed for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Good luck, Pilot.

So um, what exactly were you doing that was supposed to not let evil flourish? The blood might be on others' hands for not using their capsuleer power for good, but it is on yours, too. Don't try to deny that.

((OOC: you do know that every single player character in Eve is a capsuleer, and by virtue of having access to IGS you are a capsuleer, right?))

I agree with you completely. Let's set fire all across New Eden. By the fires of war will New Eden be purged of weakness, finding strength to mend its own failures and arise into destiny. If the capsuleers remaining in K-Space will struggle, if they will dig down and find in themselves the strength to overcome, then we can shrug off the torments and evils of this momentary dark age and arise into a society of light, a New Kingdom among the stars.

However, you seem to blame our failings for dealing with the Sansha. Why should I even lift my hand against the scourge? I have my means and my will, and they are of little threat to myself, as I live predominantly in wormhole space. I am the master of my own fate, together with those whom I love.

Secondly, contrary to what you claim, MANY capsuleers are fighting the Sansha (including myself, actually). Concord pays far, far too well for us to simply ignore this threat. As long as those paychecks remain, you will see many, many capsuleers engaging the threat, and doing so far better than any of the four great empire's navies, who, by the way, seem to be the one's who are NOT showing up to defend their space from the Sansha.

Before you emo-rant on the IGS, think your facts through more clearly. I am sorry for your family members loss. Why didn't you kill her holder and free her yourself. I don't think her blood is on my own or any other pod pilot's hands... except yours.

So many who do not understand.
Very well.

Silas. You may understand what is to come. These words are not for you.

Tiberious. The nation will burn with the rest, Do not think i have forgotten it's crimes.

Petrus. It is unlikely that a single frigate would do anything against the forces arrayed against us. At least, not alone.

Rall, I would suggest you read the third section of my original statement again. YOU are part of the cause. along with others, you allow Nation forces free reign over this cluster for weeks at a time, any why? because the pay is better that way.
You and your kind disgust me.

All are held to account for their actions, and all are found wanting.

let me be a little more specific.

I wish nothing more than to see this cluster burn, every planet, station, outpost, colony, tower, habitat and ship. I am beyond caring about your petty reasons and excuses for your actions.

You are going to burn yourself down before you do any significant damage. I am not worried.

Welcome to the fold. I would recommend a temple session as soon as possible. You are still emotional, and need to study scripture for a while.

Your emotions are most certainly justified. God is angry, and that is the reason there is nothing but despair in New Eden. We shall right that wrong.

Mr. Dilaro Thagriin, I believe the Seekers might have the answers you are looking for.

My faith only requires I burn enough to get what i want. I think perhaps you want to go 'all the way' with the cleansing, in which case the Seekers can give you proper guidance.

Right, because that'll your honour your family's memory, no doubt they'd be beaming with pride if they could see you now.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

Tiberious. We shall see. When your master is naught but dust, and your nation is a memory I intend to still be here.

Boma. Thankyou. I will report as you have requested as soon as i am capable.

Silas. How very perceptive of you. Perhaps I misjudged you in the past.

Caellach. You DARE to think you know me or my family. We were hunters, predators if you will. this is simply what happens when a predator has no more reasons to hold back their nature.

I will take some time to contemplate the texts Boma spoke of, and then once I am deemed ready, I will hunt.

I don't need to, no sane person would want to see their flesh and blood give up all compassion and understanding and become nothing more than a homicidal fanatic. Take issue with those who have caused you grief, not the innocent and powerless, nor those who fight endlessly to seek positive change.

Seeking an end to all things will not bring your family back, nor will it likely succeed. The strongest instincts are those of survival, even for predators. Committing yourself to some suicidal cause is not survival, and you throw away the last of your family line by choosing to go down this route.

So no, I don't need to know your family to say you're doing them a disservice.

When your gut instincts tell you something is wrong, trust them. When your heart tells you something is right, ignore it, check with your brain first. Accept nothing, challenge everything.

What makes you think he is seeking an end to all things? Your view of existence is frighteningly narrow, Caellach.

Doesn't really leave much room for misinterpretation. You burn everything and what's left?

Spin it how you like, you're still trying to condone mass slaughter of billions without any reasonable justification.

Picking up on a small part of an argument to ignore the bigger picture isn't going to detract from the pont.

Snipped your words a bit as most of the responses weren't meant for me. What is left I just feel compelled to comment on.

I don't mean to insinuate anything, but I have to point out that, in my experience, people who are beyond caring about something don't take the time to announce they are beyond caring about it. I think you do care, more than you're willing to admit to yourself, simply because if you didn't care and you were truly disgusted by the state of the world, you'd burn yourself before even attempting to consider scorching the universe. Your emotions are running hot, Boma sees them, even if you jerk your head away and refuse to look at them yourself for fear you'll have to admit that at the very least your words are poorly chosen at the moment.

I also find the hunter and predator statement interesting, but quite inaccurate. Predators and hunting animals have existed in nature since before man looked at a woman and scratched crude breasts on cave walls. You are no predator and you are no true hunter. You miss the subtle but important distinction between an actual predatory animal, and a human mimicking a predator. An animal hunts to sustain itself in only the most basic ways. A human makes a mockery of hunting. A human murders, a human slaughters, a human massacres. From your own words it seems clear you'll be killing out of some sense of vengeance or righteous purpose, justice even. But that is not hunting, that is murder for a cause beyond instinct and simply calling it hunting.

You should do as Boma has suggested and take some time to study scripture, and more importantly, study yourself. Return when the fire inside you is properly controlled and the words you do use are more carefully selected. Words should cut like a scalpel, not crash like a brick.

So I've got an opinion, you've got the very old opinions of several other people.

You're still not making a point, then again how can you justify the mass slaughter of innocents?
