Capsuleers of New Eden,

There are structures… and then there are relics.

Deep within the warped, hostile reality of Pochven stands an Athanor known as **“Sanctuary.”** It is not just another refinery. It is a **legacy monument** —anchored in a time before the rules changed, before the gates closed, before Pochven became a region where **no new player structures can ever be placed again**.

Let that sink in.

When Sanctuary dies, there will never be another like it.

* * *

### **WHY THIS MATTERS**

Pochven is not normal space. It is a proving ground forged by the Triglavians—isolated, controlled, and restricted. The era of anchoring structures there is over. Permanently.

Sanctuary exists because it slipped through history’s narrowing window.

- It is **irreplaceable**

- It is **strategically symbolic**

- It is a **statement of presence in a region where presence is no longer allowed**

Destroying it is not just a kill.

It is **erasing a piece of New Eden’s past**.

* * *

### **THE OBJECTIVE**

We are forming a coalition strike group to **locate, siege, and destroy the Athanor “Sanctuary.”**

This will not be a simple bash.

Expect:

- Heavy resistance from entrenched defenders

- Third-party interference (opportunists, vultures, and glory-seekers)

- Pochven environmental hazards and rapid escalation

- Unpredictable grid control and limited extraction options

This is not a structure kill.

This is a **historical event in the making**.

* * *

Sanctuary is a lie.

A false refuge in a region that recognizes no safety. Its name is an insult—to the fallen fleets, to the burned-out systems, to every capsuleer who has been dragged into Pochven and forced to adapt or die.

They call it Sanctuary.

We call it **unfinished business**.

Let it be known:

- There is **no sanctuary in Pochven**

- There is **no immunity in legacy**

- There is **no safety in history**

Only those who act will define what is remembered.

* * *

### **CALL TO ARMS**

We are calling on:

- Veteran Pochven pilots

- Small gang specialists

- Bombers, tackle, brawlers, and chaos agents

- Anyone who wants their name tied to something that will be talked about for years

Whether you come for the fight, the loot, or the legacy—this is your moment.

* * *

### **WHAT YOU GAIN**

- A place in one of the **rarest structure kills possible in EVE today**

- Participation in a **non-repeatable event**

- Killboard immortality tied to a **legacy-class target**

- The satisfaction of tearing down something that **can never be rebuilt**

* * *

### **FINAL WORD**

Years from now, when pilots talk about Pochven, they will ask:

_“Was anyone there when Sanctuary fell?”_

There are only two kinds of answers:

- Those who were

- Those who wish they had been

Choose wisely.

**Form up. Prepare your ships.  
Sanctuary must fall.**

I highly recommend being yourself to sound the most human, and while I can sympathize with your speech impediment, I’m not sure how much that is going to come across in text versus the post just reading as AI.

Best wishes.

There is no doctrine. No Fleet. Only Victory. Bring your friends, bring your enemies. Duke it out on the undock. Located in the pochven region of space in the Kriald system. Over the next 3 days we shall turn Pochven not red from the storms but red from the blood of victory!

Sanctuary is filled with many miners, and pochven ore. It must be liberated.

[INTEL UPDATE]

I have lost a lot of bubbles. I have spoken to INIT internal command and they are not willing to negotiate. They label me a “Terrorist”.

I have logs proving they are the ones to blame.

They continually extort community members with their “Freeport” they call it.  
Only to have players place items and ships into these hangars and be removed from the docking list, and sent private messages requesting payment to regain access to your ships and items.

This is corruption on a global scale.

Stand with me in solidarity and help liberate this “Freeport” and create a truly unique and prosperous Pochven.
