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.
