Hello all,

Being a bit of an historian and archaeologist, I tend to come across old histories, legends, and stories. I've just come across mention of a story about the "Bloodraiders of Khanid." This seems a fairly recent story. Kind of an urban legend among Sani Sabik.

"South of Kithaled
Where the stars grow dim
She kept the blood of all of them.

Thirteen corpses
Alive, not dead
Killed before life and by a friend

Today they lie still
Tomorrow may rise
when the youngest of blood sees with his eyes."


It indicates a blood farm or clone bank in the area of space "south" of (assuming map south or galactic spinward) Kithaled, or Khanid LowSec.

I will pay handsomely for any further information. A site like this would be a great boon to our people and provide a wealth of historic knowledge, to both Sani Sabik, but possibly Khanid as well.

I fully expect the usual derisive commentary from the incense gallery. Save your breath. I cannot be stopped. Only GOD can judge me, etc..

Thank you everyone else, in advance.

AZ

Payment will be...generous.

But I have a lead on the Kaira system.

Verification would be helpful, or any history on Bloodraiders in that area.

That angry freedom fighter said this was reality and not a space opera, but yesterday one Blood Raider said to another Blood Raider in front of everybody, or everybody present, that she would give him a bloody tower if he showed her how to sacrifice a million slaves. She even made a link of the contract.

I tried to click on it, but my interface refused to display the message, that's how bloody it was!

Anyway, that's exactly like "space opera" VII "Tinker Tailor Sister Spy," described briefly elsewhere, but once again briefly here: Charles Stocques teams up with the blonde Gurista bombshell Thumper to stop a group of Blood Raiders that have raided, for lack of a better word, a covert Sisters of EVE convent. After a lot of sexual escapes, using technology developed covertly by the Sisters at the convent from technology stolen from Sandman Kuvakie, the Blood Raiders open a hole to the EVE Gate and prepare to sacrifice a group of Matari priestess who had been been abducted from all around space (admittedly, fewer than one million; however, the idea was that they contained the memories of an whole Matari village and all of the ancestors of everyone in the village, which may have been, you know, probably still less than a million - but damn, Impetus is creative) to usher in an age of perpetual darkness!

Strangely, the second Blood Raider declined the offer of the bloody tower, which did not happen in "Tinker Tailor Sister Spy."

But its happening all over again! Here, we've got a Blood Raider bringing up a romantic poem about thirteen dead Matari priestesses. I think there were only seven priestesses in "Tinker Tailor Sister Spy," but seven is also a mystical number just like thirteen. Isn't that right, mystic people? I think there are some mystic people here. But now that I have a better grasp on the end that goes up inside the pod, the story of thirteen dead Matari priestesses gives me an idea for the family artisanal chocolate business!

It is a poorly kept secret that the Sani Sabik enjoy a cult following among Gallente teenagers. My third girlfriend was very much into dressing me up in a thong and going to conventions and having a lot of sex with everyone conscious. There are rules. Well, I'm kind of into that too, I suppose. From an early age, I was taught the family part of a family business is to stay out of the way of people who know how to make chocolate or porcelain, and to instead expose myself broadly in the media to build brand presence. Now that I know which end to push inside the pod, they're telling me to figure out how to get to Tash-Murkon and to expose myself to old Amarrians for brand building.

But before taking off my big boy pants again in foreign places, I'm thinking we could introduce a "Lost Covenant of the Sabik" line of artisanal chocolates.

In thirteen boxes, one of the artisanal chocolates will be replaced by a hand made wooden box. In the box will be a pendant necklace, one pendant for each of the thirteen Matari priestesses who will rise again as vampire queens and usher in an age of perpetual darkness. The thirteen people who find one of the thirteen necklaces will get to appear in the new Impetus documentary "The Thirteen." It will be huge! Gigantique! It's like a space opera following reality, instead of reality following a space opera!

...um... I hope the "Lost Treasures of the Sani Sabik" line of artisanal chocolates is all right, Monsieur "AZed?"

Whatever,

We should be touching down in a few minutes.

God will be pleased by my efforts, even if you lot aren't.

Whether he understands or not, I certainly don't.

All those holoreel references, talk about chocolates, and now this?

Is this some sort of joke?

I had an interesting conversation with Sir Mokk on the IGS open channel. It appears he killed Mr Zateki, likely after waking him up from stasis.

Yes, the Blooder is dead.

Yes, he awoke me from a very long stasis.

Yes, there seems to have been some signal degradation in my subsequent re-cloning.

And yes, I am very grumpy.

I ... take it Mr. Zateki did not have a backup?

... actually, considering the private nature of things like that, we'll probably only know that he did when we start seeing confused postings from him in a couple of weeks demanding to know what happened to him.

Unless he finds this topic first, of course.

Minus one blooder archaeologist, plus one grumpy amarr.

Sigh. I don't even know if it is a fair exchange.

If I understand the Blood Raider exchange of two days prior, Monsieur AZed had a girlfriend. In fact, it was Monsieur AZed's girlfriend who offered the third Blood Raider a bloody tower in exchange for bloody, forbidden knowledge. If the dead Blood Raider's girlfriend is anything like my girlfriends, particularly my Sebiestor girlfriends, then she knew what he was doing before he knew what he was doing.

But otherwise, this is fantastique! The Lost Covenant of the Sani Sabik is cursed!

Teenagers will go wild! I know it drives me wild! Their parents will be forced to exchange extravagant amounts of currency for a box. I just finished having sex with the Quafe Assistant Vice President of Alternative Product Distribution, Verge Vendor Office, and she was head over heels - a pun? - in love with the premise of Lost Treasure Chocolate Boxes. They will create a shell corporation which extrudes a subsidiary under Minmatar corporate law to insulate against any brand contamination on the distribution deal that might be aroused in old fashioned types by an association with murderous human sacrificing cannibals. Otherwise, lock and load!

Now all I have to do is convince the Impetus Historix Docuspectacular Program Manager Top Tier about the documentary. He sounded reluctant, but I suspect that just means he wants to be on top after our lunch meeting. The pretense for his concern is probably the "thirteen" part. In "Tinker Tailor Sister Spy," there was one priestess for each of the Minmatar tribes: Brutor, Vherokior, Sebiestor, Nefantor, Thukkor, Starkmor, and Krusual. The Krusual are way kinky. The seven priestesses contained the sacred knowledge of "all" the tribes, and so sacrificing them was supposed to usher in an age of perpetual darkness.

But this just means than in addition to a documentary about the Treasure of the Lost Covenant and the thirteen priestesses, we can make a documentary about the six lost Minmatar tribes! Where have they gone? What wonders have they experienced? Are the Drifters remnants of the lost Minmatar tribes, come back from the stars with mounds of forbidden knowledge with which to usher in an age of perpetual darkness!?

Or... is this about the return of Silas Vitalia?

Well, hello and welcome back to life. May your stay here be just as hellish as the rest of ours.

Sinjin Mokk, that name is familiar for some reason....oh yes, you flew under the Blooder Silas Vitalia. I don't remember if you share her sentiments, do you?

Well ... I heard something today that seemed to suggest that he ran Ms. Vitalia's corporation for a while, before she went Sani (at least publicly). She might have been the one who put him in stasis.

It would go pretty well with the poem....
