Instead we complain about how our republic is powerless instead of emboldening it by actually supporting our own people. After all, we are the strongest force our people have. Maybe if we simply shut up with our own naysaying and actually did something to improve our station in all of this we wouldn't have the reason to complain... just a thought.......



Yet you work for a Gallente news agency?




Your point in bringing it up being? I work for a group loosely associated with one of our allies. I'm also trying to perfect my skills as a combat pilot, in which I refuse to limit myself to only what my own people can offer me in both equipment and skills. I've found its a lot easier to react to situations when you have first hand experience of what the other side of your gun barrels is capable of. And just to be clear, when I was employed they were one of the bigger groups in Huola and were still based there.



Sorry Deitra, that came out more snarky than I intended.

Not what makes one Matari, but WHO makes.

God does.

Ah yes. Matari.

Or as I like to call them: The unpaid help.

How do you know you're a Matari?

It's quite simple actually.

If you're serving gin to Amarr's finest citizens, then you are a true Matari.

Now...go make me a sandwich.

I prefer the open hostility of jerks like this. I mean yeah, he's a low-born climber from a house no one has ever heard of, but you got to admire his total devotion to the Amarr brand of insanity.

The ones that **** me off the most are the ones that pretend they're "honorable" and "stoic" who are too sociopathic to realize just how evil their pretend compassion really is. They'll talk all day about how "liberally-minded" they are, or how we Matari are so "noble" but never realize how ****ing condescending they sound.

You want a side of depleted uranium with that sammich?

You restraint is admirable, I know full well not all slaves are Matari, this is just a poor attempt to anger us. From a Ethnically Amarrian woman who committed a crime and who was fitted with TCMCs in the Kingdom, to an elderly Thukker enslaved by the Cartel to help produce drugs; all slavery is wrong. This thread however isn't about slavery.

That's just Nauplius. Most Amarrians would rather see us in chains bowing to them, and thus, their god.

Mr. Nauplius is a heretic, he speaks his own words, not scriptures.

Your god orders us to forget our ancestors, our history and the common beliefs we hold, how did he make us exactly? He made us but wants us to not be us... Am I missing something or?

Unpaid help? Brother, if you think Slaves are cheap compared to workers, I have some beachfront property on an iceworld to sell you.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.

You Matari should just keep padding yourselves on the back for having evolved to a point where you can function as a "tribal society" that ranks just slightly above those mindless brigands that laughingly call themselves The Sansha Nation.

But please do not ever again pretend to understand my culture, or "insanity", as it my seem to your untrained mind.

And those falsely sympathetic hypocrites, which have by mere coincidence been brought into the world within the borders of the Empire, are no more Amarr than you.

There are two kinds of power in the universe. The first one can be conjured up with a wink and a smile, and forced into existence by wealth, or through intimidation.

It is the kind of power that Matari and all the other unenlightened heathens strive for since it is easy to make someone bow to you out of fear or necessity.

But we who call ourselves the Amarr strive for a different kind of greatness. A power that doesn't frighten or blackmail but instead inspires, and leaves everyone in awe of our general awesomeness.

People don't bow down to us but rather sort of helplessly tumble down to their floor just as soon as they realize who we are and what we stand for. Be it the impeccable goldness of our ships, our unrelenting faith, or the great many virtues of our divinely inspired character, all heathens are simply cut of at the knees and swept aside by our very presence.

The day you understand the difference in those two powers is the day you will be able to tell the difference between a true son of Amarr and a mere posing heathen.

That is all.

Well, your right one one thing.... Your power inspires for sure, inspires resistance, inspires blood shed, and inspires hatred in general. Job well done, you can hide behind some words that claim divine right and there will always be more to stand in your way. True power currupts. That fascade is cracking, just like those golden hulls to a barrage round.
