_Numerous reports across the northern regions of Intaki Prime have called in sightings of black-clad warclone operators rapidly descending on the planet. Satellite imagery has shown that the unnamed forces have already committed to a sporadic landing of troops and supplies expanding from a northern-most base of operations. Eyewitness testimony suggests that the base is complete with what experts are describing as a ‘clone reserve unit’ and nano-factories that appear to be spooling out ammunition and other armaments. Despite initial alarm, the soldiers’ hastily made outposts on coastal regions appear to be stockpiles with assisting personnel gathering water and foodstuffs._ ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/2/b/2bd28fa2ef7ca244b8aa782023582c01358a5996.jpeg) ---

In addition, agricultural livestock have also been amassed in the area, though the conditions they are being kept in have conservatively been described as “cramped and messy”._ _Unconfirmed claims of loose skirmishes between the unmarked mercenaries and the Onikanabo Brigade have been reported. However, journalists arriving to the affected areas found little more than pitted scenery and without vetted eyewitness testimony, it is currently impossible to say whether these rumors are true._ _A field officer of the unmarked mercenaries, who wished to remain anonymous, explained: “Just scary stories from frightened children.

# Neopian News Channel – 01.07.121 > [@](#): > > Following a [detailed statement](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/unf-a-eugales-vi-arcology-and-terraforming-initiative/93140/30) put forward by Eugales VI arcology lead @Lauralite_Anne_Brezia, the ongoing conflict between the United Neopian Federation and their allies in the Bosena Accords against an armed raid from Serpentis and Angel Cartel militants has reached a stalemate. > > According to the Project Salvo co-lead, the cloned mercenaries succeeded in inflicting significant damage to the Eugales VI colony’s industrial district before being pushed back to Industrial Block H4-DL3Y. The response team, organized by @Junon_Tristan of the Bosena Accord’s Department of Structure Security and Defense, specially requested operators from the Accord’s elite Draugr Division under the command of @Foley_Aberas_Jones to keep the fighting contained to Block H4. Meanwhile, baseliner units from the Neopian Defense Force began establishing fixed positions with dispersed artillery support along the perimeter of H4-DL3Y. > > Shortly after, a Python-class gunship arrived on-scene containing the Bosena Accords founder Galm Fae along with several dozen crates of experimental [small arms and equipment stamped from DysTek Armories](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/aegis-small-arms-contract-expression-of-interest/160853/2) to resupply the warclone auxiliaries. Claiming to represent the Glatisant Tribunal, the judicial branch of the warclone stronghold of Avalon, the former Warden of Avalon was quick to comment as the situation unfolded: > > “Make no mistake about my appearance here, this counter-offense was executed masterfully by everyone from the command level to the baseliner Neopians that fought alongside our troops. I trust Foley to keep abreast of the situation and to keep Draugr Division poised if we see some sort of a break-out. My presence here is to observe, take note, and to negotiate a ceasefire should the poor bastards on the receiving end of our guns decide they’re ready to come in from the cold.” > > When pressed on why the Seperentis and Cartel hadn’t been fully eliminated yet, the warclone had this to say: > > “It’s a bit more complicated than just _’blast ‘em!’_ We got’em pocketed now, but that’s a tough place to be. Any attempts to push forward have been met with bottlenecks and killing zones that place an unnecessary risk on our troops. There’s not much sense in wasting equipment and biomass feeding clones into the meatgrinder when we can just wait them out or glass ‘em from orbit with a targeted strike. Vaporizing an entire industrial plant and shattering the local atmosphere isn’t exactly ideal either, and it’s only a matter of time before they either force a break out, fight to the last clone, or just all decide to self-terminate at the risk of going home empty handed.” > > Rather than dropping hybrid rounds and artillery shells, however, the Bosena Accords took to dropping something else. Late in the evening, as the shots grew silent a flight of three Bolas RDV transports passed over H4-DL3Y and airdropped several cases of provisions including rations, sleeping bags, hand warmers, and dryer sheets to help fight the ambient static that constantly builds on the storm world along with laminated pamphlets informing the entrenched pirates that neither the Serpentis nor Angel Cartel had attempted an extraction or rescue mission. Rather than carry on fighting or self-terminate, the pamphlets offer an appealing alternative; cross the barricades peacefully and enter the fold as Bosena Accords signatories with full amnesty and benefits. > > The pirates, for their part, have declined to comment at this time. > > ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/a/c/ac9e6a3eefcf3215719595d2a4e723ef366a4038.jpeg) > _Bosena Accords Draugr Division warclone, armed with an experimental XCLBR rifle, secures the perimeter around Block H4-DL3Y._ ((Art Credit: [https://galanpang.myportfolio.com/dust-514-environment](https://galanpang.myportfolio.com/dust-514-environment))) ---

**Heritage, YC121-07-01** > While local news has concentrated social reporting on the commendable efforts of Rhiannon and allied clans in aid in the containment of and clearing up after the devastating Blood Raider attacks in Sundsele, _Heritage_ also has news from the internal workings of the clan, where not everything proceeds as smoothly as the official PR would have you believe! > > With the Clan Chief Mira Shaninn (may the ancestors welcome her) confirmed dead in the initial chaos of the attack, the young heir Aeron Shaninn has returned to Sundsele in the aftermath. As expected, the succession was confirmed in the Midsummer rituals, and the young Chief is in the process of taking his place in the relevant Circles - if he can get past all the uncles and aunts more than willing to advice him! > > Unlike the clan front would like you to believe, there has indeed been a strong push for the removal of the Shaninn line from the core of the clan, something which many in the city feel is long overdue. Further complicating the issue, Aeron Shaninn is a capsuleer, and the Rhiannon clan has never been a welcoming one for outside influences. > > No comment has been given by Rhiannon regarding the allegations that the attacks were targeted at the clan. According to sources, the capsuleer Elsebeth Shaninn has herself admitted on capsuleer channels that she thinks the attack was a response to her provoking the Blood Raiders in a high-stakes debacle involving a Thukker bountyhunter earlier this quarter. Same sources have informed the _Heritage_ that Captain Shaninn has left Republic space after these allegations surfaced, to join a mercenary company fighting in the lawless fringes of the space. With this, Shaninn influence in the clan is now very thin, and almost rests on young Aeron alone. > > Last but not least, there is the question of the heir to Chief Aeron Rhiannon. The young man, being in his diversion years, would be a prime candidate in marriage both for Rhiannon internally and for many traditional allies. Prior to succession, he had not shown interest in any particular young woman of eligible clans, though he has had his share of flings (subscribers see inside for pictures!). ---

The police have closed the case, my family has moved on, our neighborhood has forgotten her, but I won’t. > > Ten years ago today, my mother passed away. The case was never officially solved, but everyone knows who pulled the trigger: Her husband. My father. And then, being the coward that he is, my father vanished from Caille completely. > > Not that I care what happened to him, other than that I’ll never have the answers that I want from him. I do know that he was a waste of a human being. A con man, a drug dealer who was never home to take care of his wife and daughter. Sure, he made bank, and we lived like the rich, but it was like I never had a father at all. I never got what my mother saw in him. > > But my mother! She was an incredible woman. Smart, funny, loving. She had almost finished capsuleer training! She had so much ahead of her, such a bright future–only for my drug-dealing dad to waste it all. For a 16-year-old girl–that’s me–to be left grieving and empty, with no one to look to for the rest of her teenage years. > > (Yeah, so now I work a dead-end retail job on the Crystal Boulevard and write capsuleer porn as a hobby. Exactly. You really get me.) > > Anyway, everyone else may have forgotten, but I haven’t. And I write this here because I get a ton of hits on this site for the slashfics, and I’ve never asked you guys for anything before–and I’m not really now, either. Because the chance that one of you will run into that bastard is probably something like 0.00000001%. > > But I do want to tell you, just in case you _do_ see him, that the one good thing my mother’s family did was put the rest of her training-school money toward a reward for her murderer’s capture. And the reward money does still stand, a decade later. That’s right, if you see this man, and you bring him to any law enforcement agency in Caille, you’ll be richer by at least 1m ISK!! Yeah, ISK!!! 1m ISK if you bring him in dead, 10m ISK if you bring him in alive. Information leading to his capture is also worth 1m. > > His name is Ira Falconer, and he looked like [this](https://i.ibb.co/R08tfQc/ira-falconer.png) 10 years ago. Obvs he was last seen in Caille 10 years ago, but I’d be willing to bet he’s still dealing drugs somewhere. He’s also half Krusual and part of some Circle or other, so he could have run to them too. > > If you know anything, anything at all, please please please reach out to me.

En Carteau, leader of the self-proclaimed “social advocacy” group Intaki Resilience Advancers, was reportedly on her way to a local spaceport following a visit to a remote mountain village. She was one of 56 passengers aboard a charter bus which was making its way down a windy mountain road when the accident happened. Eye witnesses claim they saw the bus enter a tunnel but failed to exit; it was later determined that the bus somehow crashed while inside the tunnel. 42 fatalities were reported, while 4 victims remain in critical condition, 5 in severe condition, and 5 in moderate condition. Local law enforcement is still trying to piece together the events of the tragic accident. > > En Carteau was set to participate in an Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive (I-RED) led summit regarding the status of Intaki Prime, along with other prominent capsuleer entities such as the Intaki Prosperity Initiative (IPI) and Nadire Security Consultants (NADSC). Conspiracy theorists and rabble rousers are suggesting the ill-timed events of this accident are in fact a plot by malevolent forces to silence a pro-Intaki voice. Interestingly, en Carteau was observed touring ravaged villages and pillaged Ida sites on Intaki Prime throughout the previous week, strongly criticizing the Onikanabo Brigade for their assaults conducted on Intaki Prime. Many of these rumors are purely speculation, of course, but this has not stopped their spread into mainstream media. Already they have mobilized many pro-Intaki groups to express their disdain towards the Onikanabo Brigade, and the general situation on Intaki Prime regarding its security franchise system. Other Intaki advocate groups are increasingly putting pressure on the Intaki Assembly to leap into action. > > It will remain to be seen if prominent capsuleer groups will be able to affect any change on Intaki Prime with the Intaki Security Summit set to take place within a couple hours as of this article. ---

The accident came at an untimely period for the capsuleer, as she was set to participate in a capsuleer-led summit which would discuss matters related to Intaki Prime’s current situation. This led many to hypothesize that the attack was an attempt on Carteau’s life, and an active effort to silence vocal individuals who have a track record for pushing for action. > > En Carteau spoke at a memorial in a village near the site of the accident earlier today. “I do not know why this senseless tragedy occurred, only that we as a people must endeavor to keep moving forward”, she started. “Although my life nearly ended, and I am still recovering from my wounds, I will put forth every last drop of effort to keep fighting for my people. To speak up against the injustices we face currently. And to honor the lives of those who were taken from us on that fateful day.” > > Her corporation, the Intaki Resilience Advancers, has already set up a fund dedicated to helping families of those that perished in the accident with funeral costs and some compensation. At the conclusion of her remarks, en Carteau pledged to assist other capsuleer entities such as the Intaki Prosperity Initiative in providing relief for areas ravaged by the recent Onikanabo Brigade assaults. ---

She also refused to explain her activities since the LDPS incident, which apparently involve building 60 mobile depots within a few jumps of the Intaki system. Rather than be put on probation, the executive said, she resigned from Aliastra. Ms. Vynneve was not available for comment. ![60mobileDepots](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/e/2/e27797e1924d5f5368d282a06d5a0249c42d4146.png) ---

Hueromont Herald > # Large amount of Mizhir Devara’s security forces are withdrawing from Hueromont > > The ‘Devara Biotech’-owned security company Rej’Naska, also known as The Revenants, are withdrawing a large amount of their forces from Hueromont. This is all while the conflict in Old Hueromont is still ongoing and the official opening for New Texel is approaching. There have already been speculations on what caused Mizhir Devara to make the call, however we have been unable to get a statement from her or anyone within Rej’Naska. Local Intaki groups have already stated, that they hope that Rej’Naska will be deployed to help with the situation on Intaki, but there have been found nothing that indicates this. Meanwhile outspoken Mannars have declared this a victory and called Devara a coward. Despite all these statements she has chosen to keep her cards close. > > ![Takeoff](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/0/b/0bd5d745274f592aa38065d3bf23deadf3f9d271.jpeg) > _One of the Rej’Naska landing crafts taking off from Old Hueromont_ > > Mizhir Devara’s assets will, however, not be left unguarded.

> _ **The UNF Deploys; Relief for Intaki Militia Arrives with Chaotic Opening** _ > > Earlier this morning, the pair of Chimera class carriers belonging to the United Neopian Federation and Valkyrie’s Curse - the _Wellspring Shard_ and _Gray Wolf_ respectively - deployed from the [Intaki V - Moon 5 - Astral Mining Inc. Refinery](http://evemaps.dotlan.net/station/Intaki_V_-_Moon_5_-_Astral_Mining_Inc._Refinery) to sit in orbit of Intaki Prime, in preparation for the deployment of landing craft to make landfall. However, there are several self-propelled multiple rocket launchers and anti-aerospace missile batteries added to the Kainta Yavaat Transorbital Launch facility’s defense complement, around which the LDPS is most heavily concentrated. > > > ![unknown2](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/6/d/6d0dbc9399670d7581477651ada35db71640af57.jpeg) > > _The__ **VC Gray Wolf** _ _on the left, and_ _ **UNF Wellspring Shard** _ _on the right, undocking with the fleet to meet in orbit of Intaki V._ > > While the missile emplacements pose little threat to the carriers, they do pose a minor threat to the cruiser and frigate escorts, as well as a serious threat to the landing craft themselves. The range of the AA means landing has to take place far from the front lines, though the infantry and mechanised support will bolster existing ILF static defenses, and make round-the-clock security less of a nightmare. > > Before dawn, the carriers had entered orbit of Intaki Prime, but despite planning, their location put them before the Kainta Yavaat Transorbital Launch Facility, moving opposite of the planetary rotation. This meant that several hours had to be spent relocating the carriers at impulse speeds to avoid deploying above Kainta Yavaat. > > > ![unknown1](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/5/4/54d0b2a58f5be2fcd26c2fd645e10e366f2399ff.jpeg) > > _The_ _ **UNF Wellspring Shard** _ _and_ _ **VC Gray Wolf** _ _guided by two escort vessels, the remaining ships directed towards space to prevent interception during landing operations._ > > As dawn was breaking over the horizon, an unidentified Stratios was spotted passing over the carriers and escorts at a high velocity, nearly colliding with the _Wellspring Shard,_ having uncloaked by proximity to the fleet formation. The vessel’s trajectory lead it to enter a shallow dive into Intaki Prime’s thermosphere, where it lit up the morning sky and alerted the LDPS below to its presence. > > The LDPS tracked but did not engage the vessel as it was out of range. However, several containers were ejected from behind the Stratios, alongside a number of drones, which were launched shortly after, and followed closely behind the falling debris to mask their signatures. > > The debris and drones would not be within range of the AA for a few minutes, during which the Stratios pulled out of the thermosphere and begun to circle a ten kilometer area above the Kainta Yavaat Transorbital Launch Facility, likely monitoring the situation. The UNF/VC fleet passed within thirty kilometers of the Stratios, and begun engaging, confirming the vessel was not a part of their formation. > > > ![unknown3](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/b/2/b22c3f5b0368888dd2b961be4f990af75b14d809.jpeg) > > _An unidentified Stratios, bearing iconography similar to that of the Guristas, with a few differences noted, but the significance of which has yet to be determined._ > > During this time the AA was able to engage the falling debris, and attempt to eliminate the drones. It is unknown at this time how many drones survived, but it appears that the LDPS suffered a few losses from a handful or so of drones that came within weapons range, causing some chaos. > > The Stratios and UNF/VC escorts were still engaging during the skirmish below, with the _Wellspring Shard_ deploying infantry and vehicle transports, and the _Gray Wolf_ following suit a few minutes after, which bypassed the orbital skirmish and passed along the edges of Kainta Yavaat’s AA range, preoccupied with the drones, with one or two of the attacking drones pulling off of the assault to intercept the landers. > > The landers reach the outermost limits of the ILF defensive line, and the drones and Stratios above all break off, the drones flying further west and over the horizon where contact was lost, and the Stratios broke target lock long enough to cloak, after which it is presumed to have warped to a wormhole in the system, as it was not seen taking any gates. > > It is reported that the drones did damage a few of the transports before they entered ILF airspace, and rumors are circulating that the Stratios belonged to the Guristas, as several markings consistent with the organisation were seen on the hull by the UNF/VC escort pilots. > > Whatever the case, the ILF’s allies have taken advantage of the situation and landed their assets ahead of schedule. Further developments will be reported on in the next few days. > > Ryan Daveth, planetside war correspondent, Intaki Prime. ---

> [@](#): > > **Beyond Horizons Entertainment Announces Casting Call** > > Beyond Horizons Entertainment, a subsidiary to the Impetus corporation, has announced a casting call for a new holoreel in production. The production company is specifically looking for ‘celebrity-look-alikes’ defined as a female Amarr of young-to-middle age with sharp wit and a cocky attitude as well as a male Gallente of swarthy complexion and disheveled charm. Though official details regarding the production of the holoreel have not been released, an early version of the holoreel’s script was leaked on GalNet within hours of the casting call being made public. Distribution of the leak was mostly halted, but early purveyors discovered that the story could best be described as follows: > > “An Amarr noble initially hates a Gallente privateer fighting for the Republic, but later falls in love when she discovers a softer center to his warrior nature.” > > Prompted by the popularity of the leaks, one producer made statements on GalNet forums stating that the holoreel will be “potentially catering to an adult demographic”. User comments ranged from mixed to delighted and questions regarding the authenticity of the holoreel coaxed the producer to reveal that the film was “an idea submitted by someone going by the alias, ‘Depresseaux’.” > > A release date has not yet been announced. * * * ---

**REPUBLIC STAR** _BREAKING: INTERNAL MEMO IN MOLDEN HEATH SECURITY INQUEST LEAKED_ > Re: Molden Heath Security Inquest > **From: Galm Eskola-Fae > Sent:** 2019.08.19 05:37 > > **ALCON,** > > **I would like to present to all of you, the essential content of todays’s meeting:** > > **To review, we have reason to believe that the Seykal Clan and the Krullefor organization are openly collaborating in Thukker-sanctioned smuggling rings across Molden Heath. It is my belief that this constitutes not only a threat to the locals to have hostile Krullefore and Seykal allied warclones present in the area but also acts to undermine Republic law in local space. > I have attempted to contact the Thukker government directly, but they have been unable or unwilling to reply at this time. While there is no proof that the Thukker are directly involved in Seykal activity in the region, it seems fair at this point to estimate that they are compliant in their activity and that of the Krullefor Organization based on the Thukker’s tentative relation with their CEO.** > > **What’s made all the more complicated, at this time, is the territorial sovereignty of Molden Heath. While the Heath remains nominally under the control of the Republican government, many of the habitable planets are specifically set aside for Thukker settlement. This leaves the sovereignty and administration of these planets questionable. Rule of law is a mess of tribal politics, and it allows smuggling operations like those of the Seykal to thrive** > > **Which leads me to my proposed solution. The thukker had a clear plan of action in reducing pirate activity in the area once before; open previously uninhabited Thukker lands to warclone settlement. Warclones have, by and large, evacuated the region as a part of the Bosena Accords or sought work elsewhere and left these regions in disrepair. Formal military districts and installations like those on Bosena XI are now proving to be hubs for criminal activity while remaining de jure “warclone” territory.** > > **Our operatives have reason to believe that the Seykal and Krullefor have been so widely successful due in no small part to their ability “squat” in abandoned warclone infrastructure across Molden Heath that remains unoccupied. These areas are and remain largely unoccupied, and suffer from extreme environmental hazards due to the warclone conflicts planetside. For any representatives present on Bosena XI, you may have noticed the impact sites and glass pillars surrounding this station on your rotation planetside that gives Terror Maw its name due to the rampant orbital bombardment sites. So long as these hazardous facilities remain largely unoccupied and this territory remains de jure warclone sovereignty they will continue to be breeding grounds and staging areas from both Krullefor and Seykal activity. Thus I propose the following:** > > **I have spoken with Knight Guard Fury, Wardon of Avalon and the de facto head of state for our union of warclones. We have agreed that these districts and territory is largely useless for us as we focus our attention away from Molden Heath and towards our goals of establishing a “homeland” in space via a project we call Avalon.** > > **A majority of warclones support these ambitions, and interest in Molden Heath is diminished. However, given suspected links with the Thukker and Seykal clans I am unwilling to simply relinquish warclone lands back to the Thukker tribe > Therefore, it is my intention to invite all parties here to cooperate on a widescale settlement campaign to encourage Republic and Thukker citizens alike to pioneer these areas to create a large enough population of Republican citizens that these districts can then be marked for annexation by the Minmatar Republic or incorporated into larger Thukker autonomous regions.** > > **This will have to involve collaboration with Matari affiliated organizations like the Electus Matari to encourage resettlement planetside, and organizations like Corovid Industries to lend their heavy industry abilities in creating settlements. Meanwhile Bosena Accords will act as the primary warclone representatives involved in the hand-off of planetary districts to Republic control, and as a peacekeeping force until such a time where these districts can defend themselves without warclone support. > In exchange, the Bosena Accords asks that allied Matari capsuleer groups support our ambitions to create spaceborne superstructures through Project Avalon to act as a homeland for warclones that will take the place of planetary districts in Molden Heath.** > > **In conclusion:** > > > > -Seykal and Krullefor Organisations are using abandoned warclone facilities for smuggling operations > > -The warclone community no longer has need for these facilities as we turn our ambitions towards space and Project Avalon > > -In exchange for Avalon’s nominal recognition from the Matari community, the Bosena Accords and by extension the warclone community will relinquish administrative control of planetary districts across Molden Heath for Republic settlement. > > -All parties involved in the summit will be asked to provide diplomatic and material support in this mass settlement project. > > -Bosena Accords warclones will provide planetary security and defense for these settlements until such a time that these settlements can stand on their own. > > Very Respectfully, > > Galm Eskola-Fae > Chief Arbiter, Bosena Accords > Avalon ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/3X/3/1/31a577e5aff53d58c3cb6baf52d0f255abb9b7d5.jpeg) _Above: Bosena XI, District I “Terror Maw”_ (((Art: [https://www.artstation.com/mitchmohrhauser](https://www.artstation.com/mitchmohrhauser)))) [Previous page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/rumors-gossip-tabloids/130182.md?page=2) [Next page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/rumors-gossip-tabloids/130182.md?page=4)
