Intergalactic Summit

Data inquiry to The Society of Conscious Thought
Attention to Idmei Sver
Priority: High

My condolences regarding the destruction of the SoCT ship piloted by Mentor Raish. We understand that Matshi Raish obtained data regarding Empress Jamyl Sarum and were hoping that this was transmitted prior to the destruction of Mentor Raish's Gnosis. As a favor to an alumnus and supporter of the Society of Conscious Though, I request on behalf of myself and my corporation that you would share this data to confirm or disprove long-term suspicions we have held regarding the Empress.

Additionally, further information is requested regarding the Society's knowledge of the Drifters and if they are a threat or ally to the Society. We do not want to alienate a potential ally, especially if our causes align.


Yours,
Petrified - CEO of Old and Petrified Syndicate.

It was totally overkill for the Empress to kill Mentor Raish. There's alot of other things that are really weird about it. The fact that they asked him to stop, and that he must have known the risk he was taking for instance. All I'm saying is it's not all one way. There's weirdness on both sides.

I thought he did comply and was effectively flying away from the Seraph when he was to all intents and purposes shot in the back. Surely he could have been detained with ease if he had transgressed. Summary execution is no way to enforce justice.

You assume it was not earned. Such foolishness. Why should I spill what grains of sand so openly for your perusal, for you who have not earned it?

Let us only hope the search never ends, that the Absolute Truth stays hidden forever. For if the search ends, we end.

Inquiring minds... want to know.

Raish is also of Khanid... that factoid is no small matter.

This defending the offender has gone on quite long enough, really.

A foreign vessel shows up entirely unannounced. This vessel proceeds to scan or hack the vessel of a head of state; a ship that could be containing extremely valuable, sensitive and, were it to fall into the wrong hands, dangerous information. That ship was told to cease, and only did so after it was finished with it's scan. Then, it proceeded to try and run.

Back when I was in law enforcement, and later during my time in the Navy, do you know what we did when an individual attempted to steal state secrets?

We considered it an act of treason if it was a citizen, or an act of terrorism if it was a foreign individual. As such, we worked to primarily protect those secrets at all expense or, in the case of the perpetrator getting ahold of them, to recover or destroy depending on the value of the information they obtained and depending on what the situation called for.

The well being of the perpetrator was somewhere towards the bottom of the priority list.

I said in a different threat that the Amarr are a society of bullies.

They encountered us, they attacked us. They encountered the Federation, they attacked. The Jove? They attacked. Sleepers discovered? Oooh, new toys for the Empire. So the Drifters get all this intel from the Jove observatories and probably figured the best way to deal with all of us was to pull the fangs out of the the Amarr.

There's no massive coalition, but there is some massive comeuppance.

If it comes to it, we'll survive. We always survive. Survival, travel, resistance. That's the soul of our culture. We adapt far better than anyone. If...IF we do die, we'll be the last people and it will be with a song in our hearts, our heads held high and the blood of our enemies in our mouths.

A little umbrella and a slice of lime would help immeasurably...
