Kim Kills Providence Procurers!
IN A STARTLING turn of events, it appears Strike Commander Diana Kim of the Caldari State Militia has been leading fleets into Providence to attempt to kill Amarr miners. A recent kill report shows Kim – a member of Templis CALSF – attacking a completely defenceless CVA mining barge in the Providence region of New Eden. Providence has been a vassal state of the Amarr Empire for over 10 years.
Worryingly, Kim has yet to face court-martial for attacking an ally of the State. This follows a precedent set following her pro-Heth Provist lectures in public forums like the Intergalactic Summit. Whilst sources close to the heads of the megas of Lai Dai and Kaalakiota suggest her remarks greatly harm the public relations activities of the megas on a regular basis, it is suggested that she holds enough sway over those in the corrupt Ishukone corporation that she will never face justice.
When approached for comment, Strike Commander Kim threatened our reporter. Openly furthering claims that she feels she has enough clout in the State to get away with whatever she wants, Kim said, “Please provide your full name, your organisation name and address so the Caldari State criminal prosecutor will know whom to charge.”
The capsuleer mercenary organisation she belongs to - Templis CALSF – has not yet faced any action from the State for invading the YWS0-Z system in Providence either. We are yet to hear how the Empire will take the news but with Lord Newelle allegedly challenging Kim on her piracy, speculation suggests attacks in kind on Caldari systems have not been taken off the cards.
All we know here at the Qirna Enquirer is that the Empire will overcome. Amarr Victor!
CODE. in Khanid Controversy
FORMER CODE. DARLING, Ange des Larmes has been seen to be living in the Khanid Kingdom. Sources say that she is residing at the generosity of an anonymous Holder family in Talidal causing local miners to be furious.
des Larmes was ejected from the New Order due to actions that even CODE. considered less than honourable. Whilst the once-poster girl for the New Order claims that she has changed her ways and is studying the scriptures for guidance, many think it too convenient that she is now holed up in a system known for its ice mining.
“It ain’t right”, one member of Khanid Works who wished to remain anonymous said. “You can’t have someone who is known for blowing up miners and halting the production of ships being treated like a Queen on the money made by Kingdom miners! Yes, everyone deserves the chance of salvation but send her off to a monastery! We have enough to deal with with Blooders turning up and trying to shoot us without one of those Code. nut-cases!”
Others, however, claim that des Larmes is now working alongside the Royal Khanid Navy in Kahah as a way of repaying her debt to her hosts. She is, apparently, eager to meet Aga-Count Chakaid who our source states she has described as ‘powerful’, ‘wise’ and ‘handsome’.
We reached out for comment from des Larmes: “It would be rude and dishonourable to shoot such generous guests as the citizens of the Khanid Kingdom. During my stay I have been given the peace, serenity and resources to study the Scriptures and I believe it is right to repay that hospitality where possible.”
As long as her words are truthful, we at the Enquirer welcome Ms des Larmes and hope she has a long and fruitful stay in our home!
Letters!
Dear Sir,
I would just like to say how I appreciate the bravery of King Khanid for standing up for what is right by laying claim to the constellation of Fabai.
For too long the people of Fabai have been neglected by the Empire as their systems do not get the same level of support as the likes of the Sarums of this cluster have for far too long. But under His Majesty Khanid III this will no longer be the case.
All of us in the Kingdom must welcome our new brothers and sisters into the fold when the wisdom of Empress Catiz wisely makes the obvious choice and grants King Khanid his claim. Whilst we in Khanid Transport may need to pull double-overtime in the short term to enable this in the short-term, as we have proven throughout our history the Kingdom will never be bowed!
Victory to the King and Glory to God.
Davon Sefris,
Khanid Transport
Dear Sir,
With news of a Gallente holo-reel allegedly based on the life story of a Retainer of House Sarum being ‘adult-themed’ does this reflect worse on the shameful display of the Gallente or the reputation of the retainer?
Signed,
‘Sarum Family Values’Ed note – We at the Enquirer do not wish to speculate on the content of nor endorse any Gallente smut but we publish this letter in the spirit of public discourse.
Sir,
With rumours that Overmind Niminen – a fallen True Amarr who is rumoured to have formerly been involved with the Adishapurs and now a high-up in CODE. - is due to announce his upcoming nuptials to fellow CODE. agent Aiko Danuja, does this mean we can finally ignore them Code ninnies as they settle down into married life or should we be concerned that the Adishapurs may now hold greater sway in a pirate faction?
Signed,
Concerned of Kahah
