YC125.04.24 // ONNAMON IV SPLS STATION


In a triumphant press release aboard the State Protectorate Operational Command HQ station in Onnamon, the Chief Executive of Taayusaka Eskeitan, Brigadier General Remilia Malitia, had the following to say:

"Dear esteemed members of the press,

I am pleased to announce that Taayusaka Eskeitan has achieved a monumental breakthrough in the Stellar Transmutation Project commissioned by the Caldari State. After just 42 days of intensive research, we have achieved all of our research goals and have made significant strides towards revolutionizing the field of stellar transmutation, leading us ever closer to the realization of the Interstellar Shipcaster project!
Our team of expert researchers and scientists have worked tirelessly around the clock to bring this project to fruition. Through their ingenuity, hard work, and dedication, we have succeeded in unlocking the secrets of safe stellar transmutation, a feat once thought to only be in the grasp of the Triglavians themselves.
The implications of this breakthrough are far-reaching and will have a profound impact on the future of space exploration and travel as well as the harnessing of vast quantities of energy and exotic materials. It will not only enhance our understanding of the universe but also pave the way for new technologies that will benefit the Caldari State as a whole.
I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the CEP for entrusting us with this project, and to our team at Taayusaka Laboratories for their unwavering commitment to excellence. This achievement is a testament to the power of collaboration, innovation, and hard work, all of which define our State.
We look forward to seeing the fruits of our collective labor take shape as we stride ever closer to victory over the Gallente menace!

For the State!"

According to sources within the Stellar Research Center in Onnamon, Taayusaka Eskeitan has contributed over a third of all required data needed to begin construction of a Stellar Transmuter.

Following the announcement, it was reported that all staff that worked on the project have been given substantial bonuses as well as an entire month of vacation time.

I stare at my feet. I look upon the peacock green trainers that encase them. I think to myself of what lies ahead and what lies behind.

A loud bang the screech and scratch of metal, I look up, another secure container in position.

I allow my body to move almost on autopilot over to the large container.

I set the security passcode.

I think on the containers I waved through before not every one has a passcode, there is no need, we have guards and as important as these specimens are to us many would not see the value.

I finish hammering the last letter “K” into the entry point, of course not every container is the same.

Appearance is everything, things must look the same.

People must act the same.

I think on my choices, I think on the words of the Idama.

I think that many Idama’s have shared good words.

I think on Mastir Reborn Technologies.

I am pleased.

Taking my Neocomm from my pocket I begin to sign-off contracts.

Expert Intervention Report to Internal Watch Warns of “Imminent Threat of Foreign Insurgency” to Eifyr & Co., Krusual Tribal Holdings

4.27.125


Over the last month, watchdog organizations and deputized private military corporations aligned with Nugoeihuvi and RSS officials in Eugidi and Pegeler have cooperated to investigate terror attacks carried out by Triglavian-alligned renegade warclone cells. Raiding parties have remained a persistent though ultimately surmountable threat, with the Tronhada Free Guard in particular cited as a model for direct-integration of existing military contractors experienced in “fifth lobe” warclone technology with the Republic Security Services to form dedicated anti-warclone quick reaction teams. This comes at a time when AEGIS and SARO’s credibility as a neutral defense network against emergent threats has come under scrutiny, with Expert Intervention’s report to Internal Watch openly calling the RSS system “a promising alternative to reliance on RED TROOP and their flagrant disregard for national sovereignty.”

Along with praise for the RSS’s efforts at uprooting foreign subversion and Internal Watch’s advances in establishing diplomatic inroads through their cooperation in Pegeler, Expert Intervention’s report warned of an “imminent threat of foreign insurgency” against Krusual Tribal holdings and Eifyr & Co. in the coming days. Assisting with ongoing investigations led directly by Internal Watch, Expert Intervention was tasked with intelligence gathering on a known hostile entity referred to internally as “Objective BACKWASH.” Believed to play a direct role in orchestrating Triglavian attacks on empire sovereignty, BACKWASH was last tracked ‘baselining’ while embedding themselves among the civilian population of Caldari Prime.

While the identity of BACKWASH could not be confirmed Home Guard could detect its influence by specific patterns of web traffic and transaction histories picked up by public network skimmers installed across NOH-owned metropolitan areas. This “digital footprint” was flagged by machine-assisted predictive programming and “advertisement optimization suites” trained to ID and geotag potentially subversive individuals in the Caldari State. Once flagged by the Internal Watch system, Expert Intervention was contracted and tasked with compiling a suspect profile and dossier. Based on evaluating their digital footprint, Expert Intervention describes BACKWASH as follows–

A Civire man of Intaki heritage, part of the warclone diaspora. May have fought in repelling Operation Highlander and was in the process of touring memorial sites across Caldari Prime in observance of the battle’s centennial. A paranoid anti-social neurotic, prone to nostalgia and willing to go significantly out of their way to fulfill that drive in between meetings with insurgency contacts. Indicates a history of substance abuse including C3 but not currently using. Unlikely to be abstaining for health or personal reasons, may be committing to a ‘tolerance break’ in the lead up to some grand display of retribution to validate their power fantasy.

BACKWASH’s pattern of behavior indicates a sort of spiritual consolidation ahead of what they believe to be a justified act of terrorism to further Triglavian pseudo-collectivist ideological ambitions. Obsessive patterns of behavior indicate Krusual Tribe holdings and Eifyr and Co. to be BACKWASH’s ideal targets as a part of their paranoid delusions and persecution complex of an omnipresent adversary working against them as part of a conspiracy that must be stopped by any means necessary. Expert Interventions estimates that the threat of BACKWASH acting on these convictions to be imminent, threatening to severely escalate the existing conflict. Agents recommend forming more cohesive profile using RSS dossier of usual suspects and dispatching Internal Watch alongside Expert Intervention to apprehend, arrest, and neutralize any individuals in and around the city of Pakuri flagged by heuristic analysis to match digital profile of BACKWASH. Checkpoints should be established along rural areas and hiking trails.

If you or a loved one know of anyone matching this description, or know of a credible threat to the security of Eugidi or the Krusual Tribe at large, we encourage you to send an anonymous tip through the Republic Star Security Partnership Program through the RSSPP-TIPS GalNet page.

Richard Masseri is, by any measure, a complex and controversial figure.

The self-proclaimed Intaki separatist and “freedom fighter,” spoke with me recently in the Star Traveler’s Lounge about his beliefs and vision for the future of “his” people. He explained that while he respected the Federation, he felt Intaki had not recently benefitted from being a member of the Federal Union. He expressed his desire for independence but went to great pains to stress that neither he nor the movement he belongs to were nationalist or segregationist. He hopes that Intaki, as an independent power, can maintain peaceful trade and cultural ties with all and that such would be beneficial and possible.

Throughout the interview, Masseri’s passion and conviction were on full display. He is a man with a vision and a purpose, but also someone who understands the complexities of the current geopolitical situation. Given the current state of affairs, he acknowledged that achieving the goal of Intaki independence would be improbable. However, he remains hopeful that change can occur.

Masseri stressed that what is happening to Intaki at the moment is a turning point and that the fate of “his” people hung in the balance. He implored anyone who believed in an independent future for Intaki to join the Intaki Liberation Front or participate in any way consistent with their individual ethics in supporting its objectives.

I did ask Masseri for any insights regarding the rumors of kidnapping, torture, and murder surrounding Sakaane Eionell’s departure from the ILF, of which Masseri was not present at the time. Masseri spoke highly of Eionell, describing her as an upstanding individual to a fault, and expressed sadness if any part of the rumors were true.

The interview left me with a sense of both respect and concern. Respect for his passion, conviction, and dedication to a cause whose probability of success diminishes. Concern when considering the complex political and social dynamics surrounding the Intaki question, especially in an atmosphere of heightened tension, and his veiled refusal to repudiate the use of violence in the achievement of his goals. Regardless of one’s personal beliefs, Masseri’s words were sure to leave a lasting impression.

Kaalakiota Links To Notorious Zefil-Keram Compact Surface After Raid On Noodle Shop

Garoun Enquirer

5th May YC 125

by Vesh Jodexi

VEY – Early morning diners yesterday Thursday at the Suromaaki House of Noodles located in the Vey VIII FedMart station were surprised as black clad officers of the Federal Police supported by Federal Customs surrounded the restaurant and executed a search warrant related to the activities of the terrorist group, the Zefil-Keram Compact.

Federal Police allege that the Suromaaki House of Noodles restaurant was being used as part of a smuggling front used by Kaalakiota Corporation to supply the Zefil-Keram Compact with armaments and supplies in their campaigns of violence within the Federation.

Federal Police released images on social media of contraband claimed to have been seized at the noodle restaurant including what are said to be rail rifles and body armour manufactured by Kaalakiota Corporation’s ‘Stahl’ product line.

Federal Police elaborated on the scope of the smuggling operation that lead to Thursday’s seizure:

“On Thursday May 4th Federal Police in collaboration with Federal Customs confiscated armaments, ammunition and other supplies we strongly believe were to be used by the terrorist group the Zefil-Keram Compact in attacks within the Federation.

Among those items confiscated were a large quantity of ‘Stahl’ issue weaponry and protective equipment manufactured by Kaalakiota Corporation and it is our belief were supplied directly by that company.

These weapons were smuggled hidden inside shipments of Matigu cod purchased from a Sukuuvestaa Corporation subsidiary and were last flagged aboard a Quafe Company freighter that docked in the Vey VIII FedMart station last week on Saturday the 29th.

In addition it is the belief that the target of today’s raid, the Suromaaki House of Noodles was the meeting point for handlers with a Kaalakiota spy ring currently active in the Viriette constellation and the Zefil-Keram Compact.

The Garoun Enquirer reached out to Kaalakiota Corporation regarding the allegations by the Federal Police and received this statement from the Nausschie branch of the Kaalakiota public affairs office.

“The allegations of Kaalakiota Corporation involvement with terrorist organisations is nothing more than a transparent attempt by Federal intelligence to tarnish the reputation of our proud company with lurid and baseless allegations with no substantiation in fact.

That Kaalakiota products are alleged to have been found in a Federal intelligence dirty tricks operation should be no surprise. Our Stahl line of weapons and accessories continue Kaalakiota’s legacy of outstanding Caldari engineering and reliability that make them favoured by customers when they are sold freely on the civilian market.

The idea that such weapons were supplied directly by the company to terrorist groups in the Federation is both absurd and baseless and one that Kaalakiota strongly repudiates with vehemence.”

Mystery shoping*

See & Hear

In a bustling trade hub, located in the heart of New Eden, a strange sighting has caused a stir among the capsuleer community. According to multiple reports, renowned Lunarisse and Franco Phonaga were spotted browsing in a heretic store known for selling forbidden and outlawed technology.

Eyewitnesses reported seeing the two capsuleers, dressed in civilian attire and wearing hoods to conceal their identities, walking around the dimly lit store for several hours. The store, which is located in a back alley and has no official name, is known to attract those seeking to obtain rare and illegal goods.

When questioned about their visit, Lunarisse refused to comment, leaving many to speculate on their intentions. Some believe that the pair were simply curious and wanted to see what was available, while others suggest that they may have been looking to acquire something specific.

Whatever the reason for their visit, it has sparked a heated debate among the community. Many have criticized the two for potentially jeopardizing by dabbling in illegal technology. Others, however, have come to their defense, arguing that they have the right to explore their curiosity and that their visit should not be seen as a sign of malicious intent.

Regardless of the motives behind their visit, one thing is clear: Lunarisse and Franco have certainly added fuel to the already burning fire of intrigue and mystery that surrounds them. Will their reputation be tarnished by this incident, or will it only add to their legendary status? Only time will tell.

Chandeille - Lirsautton V

Li Orii missing after lethal raid absconds with convicted biochemist

The attack was carried out at 17:43 on Chandellie after the prison convoy escorting Mr. Orii from sentencing, was grounded. It’s thought the aggressors were masquerading as air traffic control but violence broke out shortly thereafter.
When the dust settled, two security personnel were dead and several more injured. It’s not known whether or not Mr. Orii was working in concert with these assailants.

Following his arrest in late YC 124, leaked details surrounding the high profile case have revealed the rampant malpractice carried out by the biochemist, including [alleged] ties to illegal cloning labs, the disclosure of company secrets, and research into banned cloning technology.

Cromeaux Inc. terminated Mr. Orii’s contract shortly before his initial indictment and signalled their desire for a severe verdict. The sentencing was in-fact far more lenient than many expected and would likely have generated unrest on it’s own without this attack.

LONELY PLANET STARFARER NEWS SERVICE

On certain newsfeeds subscribed to the Lonely Planet Starfarer News Service, certain Holo-Ads began to appear a few weeks after opening of the Societas’ embassy in Caille in the Aidonis Elabon Building and increasing in frequency since the signing of the Treaty of Pashanai between the Amarr Empire and the Federation.

One such advertisement shows visuals of a slum in a down-trodden Gamma City in the Federation on a Temperate world in a constellation in low security space.

The advertisement’s visuals shows unkempt children playing in muddy streets, a drug addicted man shooting a needle into a gaunt arm, a tired woman cooking stale vegetables for a family meal, and other scenes of misery. The screen fades and words appear, golden and shining as a feminine voice recites them:

Those who embrace the Lord
And walk in light
Shall be saved by His grace
For we are the shepherds in the dark
His Angels of Mercy

  • Scriptures. Book of Reclaiming 4:45

Then the screen returns to brightly illuminated scenes of a clinic treating drug addicts, a school providing food and the ABC’s to children, and social workers going house to house, speaking with beleaguered parents and providing support. The address of the new Chapel, School, and Social Services Clinic sponsored by Khimi Harar is displayed and the ad concludes.

LONELY PLANET STARFARER NEWS SERVICE

On certain newsfeeds subscribed to the Lonely Planet Starfarer News Service, certain Holo-Ads have been appearing. One advertisement shows visuals of a hard-scrabble Delta City in the Federation on a Temperate world i in a constellation in low security space, coincidentally near Sanctum and the Federation/Empire Border and the gleaming spires of Khimi Harar’s Novae Prismaticae.

The advertisement’s visual show an isolated, struggling frontier town whose residents have been forgotten by the wealthier central worlds. Using archaic technology, horses and wheels and coal burning steam furnaces, the air is polluted and smoggy. Workers cough as they make their way from work to their brick and wooden shacks. A child worker is yelled at by an overseer for failing to meet her quota for the day. The screen fades and words appear, golden and shining, as a feminine voice recites:

“For forty millenniums we struggled in the desert.
Time of infinity to grief our misgivings.
Time of eternity to stray without God’s guidance.
One can repent and pray for forgiveness.
But true meekness is one that has penetrated and laid its roots in the very heart of a man.
The stars above will not weep for us parting.
The air we breathe won’t notice our disappearance.
The dirt of the earth will embrace our decadence.
Only in God can we thrive and grow.
Only God.”
-The Scriptures. Kuria 4:23.

Then the screen returns to brightly illuminated scenes of a golden cargo shuttle descending with modern clean-burning fuel technologies and gleaming steel air-scrubbing machinery, a school allowing the former child workers to engage in sports, and closing with a sunny and blue sky into which rises a golden spire of an Amarr temple. The address of a new Amarrian Temple, School and Machinery Works sponsored by Khimi Harar is displayed and the ad concludes.

LUMINAIRE VI, ESSENCE

The Gallente Federation Trade and Beverage Administration has opened an investigation into the soft drink “Soda Vacante” amid reports that the strawberry-flavored beverage exceeds regulatory limits for stimulants in a fizzy soda. Recently released by the Amarrian Orthodox Church, Sedevacantist, Soda Vacante was also approved for sacramental use by the Church’s so-called “Doctor of the Faith”, notorious capsuleer Nauplius. Church critics, however, averred that the Church needs to drug its own parishioners during the sacrament so that they don’t fall asleep during the Church’s sermons.

Asked about the controvery, actress Mayumi Sasaki, who has starred in song-and-dance holocommercials advertising Soda Vacante, enthusiastically supported the the product. “They gave me Soda Vacante to drink during the photo shoot — that’s closeups of my eyes on the can,” said the starlet. “I didn’t get tired at all, and I had so much energy we filmed some holocommercials right afterwards! I suggested they expand the line with some more flavors, but they said it was important that it only be strawberry because that’s what my character in Eyes for Faith would drink.”

Spokesperson Calyce Io denied any wrong doing on behalf of the Amarrian Orthodox Church, Sedevacantist, whose slogan Sede Vacante — meaning “The Throne is Vacant” — inspired the name of the new soda. “We have obeyed all applicable Federation laws with regard to Soda Vacante”, she said. “Obvious, Quake Corporation is working behind the scenes to remove a competitor to their inferior product. We’re going to keep pushing Soda Vacante into new markets with even more advertising featuring Mayumi.” The Gallente Federation Trade and Beverage Administration refused comment on an ongoing investigation.

Jita 4-4 Space Elevator Protestors Clash with the Arrival of “Labor-Nationalist Vanguard”


Since its inception, the Jita 4-4 Space elevator has had a history as the Caldari State’s high-water-mark for labor demonstrations from largely peaceful protests over extended working and transit costs to attempted terrorist attacks carried out by self-purported anarchists. Today’s protests continue that frought tradition, this time over rationing measures instituted by the CEP-- measures the workers state place an unfair burden on the working class.

The standoff between workers and Spacelane Patrol officers was broken with the appearance of workers from the labor-nationalist bloc of the State Workers Union, consisting mostly of an “all mountain” delegation of SuVee and Kaalakiota industry veterans and young ideologues shaped by their experience fighting in auxiliary combat duties during the Serthoulde campaign. The labor-nationalists appeared heavily armed and armored, several even trained in the use of warclone technology after its limited-use application in high-risk civilian occupations. It is unknown how the labor-nationalists were able to transport their equipment and personnel, or the full extent of their armaments, but it is likely that it was brought in by taking advantage of Caldari State Customs easing of restrictions on the transfer of property and funds in response to the mass repatriation order issued by CEP Chairman Akimaka Saraki.

As Spacelane Patrol were preparing for the inevitable conflict with what they then believed to be outside provocateurs, the labor-nationalists issued formal communication to CBD declaring their intention to organize in counter-protest. While the full statement has not been made public, partial segments of the memo have been circulated to corporate enforcement agencies including the Home Guard. The schism appears based in ideological differences toward what they call the “three Rs.”

  • Rationing-- While the labor-nationalist movement believes adjustments should be made to ease the strain on labor, it is our belief that rationing policies are generally favorable to curb issues of overproduction and as a method to distribute resources to each class’s needs as determined by their ability. Where labor is unwilling to accept these conditions, it is the responsibility of the vanguard to ensure discipline for the good of the working class as a whole.

  • Repatriation-- The rootless anarchists that make up the undisciplined masses rightfully assess repatriation efforts as a necessary step in mobilization by placing unskilled workers in under-performing roles into the armed forces, but fail to understand that this is necessary in support of the greater Caldari project and the opportunity to build working class sentiment within the military. As Labor-Nationalists we endeavor to serve as a vanguard of citizen-soldiers as at home in the factories as on the battlefield.

  • Reconstruction-- The turn away from liberal internationalist trade and toward internal development is the single greatest opportunity for the Caldari working class in a generation, provided we are willing to seize it. The Labor-Nationalist bloc seeks to champion novel economic strategies based on left-wing nationalist principles that will ensure the long term health and self-sufficiency of the State’s economy. The reconstruction of Kaalakiota under Haatakan Oiritsuu loss-leading five year economic plans remains the single best model for the restructuring of the State’s economy, and the labor-nationalist working class are destined to be the stewards that foster this transition.

Such statements were quickly followed by clashes between protestors and labor-nationalists. Video has surfaced that appears to show Spacelane Patrol officers speaking jovially with labor-nationalist counter-protestors with offers of “bottled water or ammunition.” Both Spacelane Patrol and Deep Core Mining has declined to comment on the presence of any counter-protests at this time.

“They aren’t gonna buy it.”
“They don’t need to buy it. They just need to bite.”
“And then what?”
“Dunno. Didn’t get that far. Sometimes you just bluff to run out the clock, waste everyone’s time. That’s another day without Red Troop breathing down our neck.”
“No but like really, you don’t see this causing any problems?”
“Not if I tell them I’m a double agent.”
“Do they know what that is?”
“Probably? Then what the hell is Foucault?”
“What about the other team?”
“Easy. I tell them I’m a triple agent. Maybe the triple negative will confuse them.”
“You’re. You’re going to lie. By telling the truth.”
“Ehh. I wouldn’t get that cutesy with it.”
“You know the whole meta irony thing pisses people off right?”

MYRSKAA, OIJANEN II

Labor-Nationalist Rally in City of Myrskaa


Labor-Nationalists took to the streets of Myrskaa this afternoon. The crowd was originally met with suspicion by Peace and Order Unit enforcers, mobilizing in force citing CEP advisory against unauthorized corporate assembly. Rather than protest against rationing measures, however, the assembled workers began to unveil and display banners and signs in support of the self-styled “three R measures”-- Rationing, Repatriation, and Reconstruction.

Myrskaa City, with its population of more than 30 million workers, is often cited as a leading example of JSL’s cooperation and ability of the State to rebuild in the face of tragedy following its virtual erasure following the Kyonoke Crisis. The Labor-Nationalists argue that, along with Haatakan Oiritsuu’s development projects used to restore Kaalakiota to profitability in the last decade, Suukuvesta’s successful reconstruction of Myrskaa City should be lauded as a model for the future development and restructuring of the State’s economy and infrastructure.

Demonstrations of working class solidarity with CEP’s attempt at restructuring the State continued for roughly fourtyfive minutes before the arrival of violent anarchist provocateurs that necessitated the intervention of the Peace and Order Unit to dispurse clashes between protestors and Labor-Nationalists. Senior Security Officer Katsutti Tururola claims that this is part of a larger trend of a wide majority of State labor who stand with the CEP being bullied into silence by anarchists seeking to divide the working class.

At the request of Home Guard officials, KIRJUUN! has purposefully declined to include images of these clashes to protect the privacy of those victimized by rationing protestors and to dissuade further acts of violence. KIRJUUN! remains an independent publication supported by Home Guard veterans and by readers like you.
