Elder Mentor Raish;

I hope this message finds you well.

I’m reaching out in the hope that you would provide additional detail as to your efforts to research Deathless activities and Jovian technologies. We at the Arataka Research Consortium are, as you know, uniquely positioned in this current matter due to our on-going effort to monitor the Vigilant Tyrannos hive sites, and have in our possession what are surely among the largest privately-held reserves of Coalesced Elements and their feedstock Drifter Hive elements. Given these significant reserves, we’re of course uniquely positioned to aid the Deathless Circle – but surely you understand I’m wary of providing support, whatever the technological reward, of a new party wishing to enter into perpetual warfare.

I ask for clarification on your aims, and whether our resources may instead aid your efforts. If so, how would they aid you? What are your research aims? And will such aims be oriented to supporting the cluster at large? In a very serious way, detractors are now citing how rarely Society works benefit the cluster at large, saying that in balance the Deathless threat of violence is outweighed by the advancement of technology.

Please do let me know. I thank you for any consideration you give this message, and hope for a reply.

In service,
Makoto Priano

For public interest. As is to be expected, no response has been received at this time.

A question that has no easy or clear answer.

On the one hand, there is a unique opportunity to maybe learn more about the workings of parts of a Jovian (way)station, Jovian Society, Jovian technology, the Coalesced Element, Element Containment Vessel, Element Control Data and the possible relations between them. The Fulcrum certainly still seems to hold a lot of secrets, contents and functions that are as of yet unknown. Increasing the insights and understanding of this will be very worthwhile to advance the scientific knowledge of the Cluster.

On the other hand there is a new organisation with clear ties to large pirate organisations, a hunger and clear interest in information and Jovian technology that now also holds ownership over a Jovian (way)station and 4 previous unknown Jovian gates. The Deathless Circle seems to have a clear objective to further explore, excavate, online and use more functions on the Fulcrum but what they will do with the station and further findings is still unknown. We do know that Jovian technology is

What we do know right now is that Coalesced Elements, Element Containment Vessels and Element Control Data is what the Deathless is currently in need of and ARC is probably sitting on one of the larger stockpiles of individual elements and Coalesced Elements. It is now known that these 3 elements will be accepted at the Fulcrum station in exchange for a single token and that this token can be exchanged for a single BPC run of the Gurista ‘Mamba’ class Destroyer or the Angel Cartel ‘Mekubal’ class Destroyer.

My proposal would be to complete several sets of the Coalesced Elements, Element Containment Vessels and Element Control Data. ARC could exchange some of the Coalesced Elements for the other 2 components to complete these sets. A small number of sets should be shared with the SOCT and another small number of sets could be offered to the Deathless Circle. I think the majority of the Coalesced Elements and sets should be kept within ARC for further research as we do not know how this set of items interact with eachother, what its purpose is and what it can be used for. Looking into these tokens and the technology behind them could provide further insights regarding the Deathless.

I feel that there now is a new opportunity to look further into the Coalesced Elements, Anoikis, the Sleepers and Drifters, the Jove and Jovian technology. It does seem that the Coalesced Elements could become even more important in the future and it is important to keep a good supply of them available and guard them well.

I’d be happy to test fly a Mekubal for you, for science.

Update; silence continues.

One would hope the respective public relations departments of organizations involved would at least deign to make public statement.

At present, we are in internal consultations about the potential value of contributions to the Sanctuary Sisters, the Society, or even to CONCORD. Further clarification on Deathless aims is likewise desired, though of course that’s its own hot mess.

Ms. Piano,

As a representative of the Serpentis Corporation, I would like to express our interest in opening negotiations to acquire a number of samples from your esteemed organization. If this is something you and your org are interested in, please contact me via a private, and secure, messaging service.

Regards,
Kitaula Jouhinen

KamDron Union will be happy to lend its industrial facilities to those who need in order to complete research or undertake experiments with the various compounds. Additionally, KDUE is happy to negotiate sales or aid in scientific discovery of its on corporate holdings. Please inquire.

As for civility, our drones and automation keep humans safe.
