Maybe it is time to admit that PAUX has been a catastrophic success: While enabling the lesser races to glorify His name, and through servitude and obedience, experience hope for their own salvation, PAUX has enabled its members to act in completed disregard and perversion of our faith’s principles. Where freed slaves claim authority over the most faithful sovereigns, claim to speak with His word and be authorities on the Scriptures, the natural—God given—order of society is falling apart. The result is confusion and anarchy of minds, leading the faithful to dark and insidious parts, playing God themselves. In doing so PAUX was quite a success. Albeit a catastrophic one.

There are doubtless many who would, but I doubt most of them have ever heard of her. And so far as I can see, the only ones here who do... are not of the Tribes. So let us pay no more heed to their degeneration than she does. But if she wishes it... I am happy to supply the assistance of my engineering and tender ships.

As far as I can see, Lt Kernher has done nothing but quote word for word, the Scripture and Amarr law in every one of her debates. She takes a strict orthodox view of the faith, and shows a sometimes frustrating lack of willing to adapt in a lot of areas, but to her credit. You, on the other hand, declared for the Tetrimonic ideals. Remind me, what did the Theology Council say about that little affair? One shouldn't declare perversion when they follow an Order declared as such.

I'm sorry but... Where exactly did Lt Kernher say she was better then any recognised Lord, Heir or King. Certainatly, she may have insulted some, denounced others (considering these are Maxillian and a certain Tetrimon rabid 'Lord' called Slaver Filth) she has never once claimed to be True Amarr, a Holder, or be any more then I. A reclaimed commoner, which she is entitled to be by grace of her emancipation.

As for authority on the Scriptures, well. She's rather good at pulling up the exact quote needed at the exact time. Again, my memory seems to fail. Where precisely did she claim to be an authority though? All I've ever seen is her reciting them, and stating it is to the Theology Council we all turn for guidance on the Scripture.

How about that Theology Council ruling on Tetrimon, eh?

If such a lesser servant spoke of a True Amarr Holder of the merest parcel of land and slaves in such tones, I would have them shot. For speaking thus of His Majesty Khanid II, Holder of Khanid, Lord of the Marches, I would have them impaled and flayed while their life's blood ebbed from their miserable body.

This lesser had best pray with her betters that she never crosses my path.


Well, if everyone that did carry the blood of a fallen race in their veins was silent, the IGS would be rather dull, wouldn't it? While I am sure that we True Amarr would have a wonderful time, it would probably be a little bland. Luckily, we True Amarr have been called by God to reclaim all the fallen races and show them the path of righteousness. Why, sometimes, we even let these fallen races become flag officers in the navy!

I am sure Samira Kerner will be spoken to, but one can hardly blame her. After all, she did grow up being taught that your king was a heretic. For that matter, so did I. Sometimes I still need to remind myself that the Kingdom en mass is no longer heretical, but that our Majesty, in her Divinely Inspired mercy and justice has welcomed you back into the fold of the faithful. Well, mostly back. The Theology Council chambers are still off limits.

I look forward to the days where the feelings of division and bitterness that marked the Imperial/Khanid relations are gone and we embrace each other as brother and sister. However, that will take time and a good amount of effort. Until then, these kinds of things are bound to crop up. Hopefully, your feathers are not ruffled too much and an apology with contrition will sort this out.

Seriously? I'd back Samira Kernher over you any day of the week, Nomarya.

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.

Let me be brief. I would neither notice nor care for any rulings of the Theology Council. In the Kingdom it does not exist or exercise jurisdiction.

She did so right here by insulting His Majesty. What do you call this if not presumptuousness and arrogation of authority? I said so before: In service of God and Amarr the only words that should come out of her mouth when talking to or about her betters are Yes, Sir! and Yes, Ma’am! A commoner with impure blood has to know her place in society.

A former slave lecturing holders on the Scriptures and insulting Kings! There have been miracles, indeed. But was she not a clone, she would not dare! The self-righteousness of some reminds us of the sycophants of the offspring of a house Kernher adores much. A man who claimed to be the voice of God and built a city in His name. A man whom St. Tetrimon delivered us from. A man whose tyranny today is hardly remembered. Is this so because the Imperial Cult some elements in the Empire follow today resembles the cult of this man whose name one does not dare to mention?

Yes, as always, it would have been preferable to have such discussions in private.

1st Lieutenant Kernher deeply regrets any offence caused by comparing blasphemers with reformed blasphemers.

I'm sure the Lieutenant would have liked to be able to apologise directly, however her studies have kept her elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to forward this apology Admiral Ascentior.

I pray the Lieutenant's...studies aren't overly extensive and that she may return to her combat duties without too much of a delay.

I have every faith that the people of Khanid will read your words and based on them, know the full worth of the Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris. You are an apt reflection of that worth.

Interesting choice of words...
Perhaps this is a timely reminder that we all have our place, and our duties.
If one was so interested in seeing blood flow, perhaps the King could ask to have one visit the warzone next time he kneels before the Empress.

What you call an apology is yet another insult.

You should take your own words more serious:

Hilarious. It's almost as if the IGS' Khanid supporters are deliberately trying to test the limits of Imperial patience. Let me tell you from vast experience that not only do those limits exist, they're always much closer than they look.
