Pilots of the Dronelands, look around you.
We are not the old titans of null,
we are not the pampered kings hiding behind Keepstars in Delve,
we are the ones who undock knowing exactly what New Eden demands of us,
courage,
resolve,
and the willingness to actually fight.
They say the Imperium is too many,
they say we should bend the knee, or vanish, or bow out quietly like so many before us.
Let them say it.
Because for every fleet that pours into our space, we will show them a truth they have long forgotten,
strength is not measured in numbers,
but in the will to stand your ground when everyone else tells you to run.
Yes, we have lost before,
yes, we will lose again,
that is the nature of the game.
Tonight we carve our names into the wreckage, into the killmails, into the very memory of this grid.
They tell us we are outnumbered,
good,
numbers are a crutch.
We are not here for ISK,
we are not here for structures,
we are here because someone has to remind New Eden what the word fight actually means.
We are here for the pilots who want a real brawl,
for the dreams buried under blue doughnuts and risk free timers,
for every newbro who built his first ship and still chose to undock,
for every veteran who forgot what their guns sounded like,
for every capsuleer who wants something real.
And if we fall,
then we fall loudly.
They may burn our citadels, but they will never burn our resolve.
They may glass our infrastructure, but they will never break our purpose.
Because today, we stand not as renters, not as pets, not as another line on the map,
today we stand as the Autonomous Droneland Collective.
We STAYD when others abandoned these regions,
we STAYD to build, to fight, to rebuild again.
And hear this well:
We will SRP our full capital fleet after the battle as promised,
we will rebuild our infrastructure,
we will run industry, war fleets, and everything in between,
we will help new pilots rise, and we will help veterans find their fire again,
we will help anyone who needs to get their life out of asset safety, to the best of our efforts,
we will make space for brawlers, builders, roamers, miners, lunatics, crafters, the whole spectrum of New Eden.
And one more thing,
we do not hide,
we do not stall,
we do not blue ball,
if you want content, you will get content.
Capsuleers,
fit your guns,
lock your targets,
remember this grid, RJBC were we make our stand.
Because when the dust settles,
when the last wreck cools and the last pod warps off,
They will know one thing,
We were here,
and we are not going anywhere.
Autonomous Droneland Collective [STAYD],
prepare to undock.
New Eden is watching.
