Fora VI News (F6N) - BREAKING: Lady Alcerys Placed on Suicide Watch, Alcerys Medical Director Confirms
Saturday, YC 127.06.07
Lady Rynna Alcerys has been placed on suicide watch by her medical staff, following an attempt early this morning in which she fell from her palace balcony. Though she did try to terminate her clone contracts in the minutes prior to the attempt, medical director Dr. Kuvari Rema, who has full authority over her clones, cancelled the request. Lady Alcerys is being kept under constant watch by her staff and is not permitted to leave the palace.
Political advisor Bakhor Derum is currently in charge of the Alcerys Family holdings until Lady Alcerys is considered mentally fit enough to return to her responsibilities. While Mr. Derum himself has refused to comment on the matter, Dr. Rema has told F6N that âLady Alcerys is safe and is being watched closely by experienced medical professionals. We are working to ensure her wellbeing as head of House Alcerys and we expect to see her return to her duties soon.â
The Palace District in Inahka is under even stricter security than usual. The Alcerys Family Guard are out in droves, preventing anyone but essential staff from getting close to the palace itself while the area is still being cleaned up.

Vice in the Veil: Hidden Nightspot Raises Alarms on Crusade Station
MEHATOOR â A growing murmur of concern echoes through the lower decks of the 24th Imperial Crusade station in Mehatoor, where a secretive establishment known only as The Gilded Veil is said to be operating beneath the shrine levels.
Described by off-duty auxiliaries and contracted workers as a den of dim light, subversive music, and masked indulgence, The Veil is rumored to attract nobles in disguise, lapsed clergy, and outsiders of uncertain allegiance. Its existence is unconfirmed by station command, yet access is reportedly brokered through encrypted invites, hushed names, and bribes quietly passed through maintenance corridors.
Logs of irregular power usage and overridden access seals have drawn quiet scrutiny, but no official action has been taken. The identity of the clubâs proprietor remains unknown, with speculation ranging from rogue freelancers to shadowed interests seeking to test the limits of Imperial tolerance.
A representative from the Ministry of Internal Order offered a terse statement:
âNo transgression is hidden from God. Corruption, once revealed, will be judged accordingly.â
Until then, The Gilded Veil remains just beyond the reach of official doctrine â a flicker of temptation in the Empireâs most holy war zone.

So what are we talking about here.. Some Intaki wild spiritual music played on an old earth musical instrument (a Kazoo/ please make it stop) and using your left hand to pick up a fork. Heaven to betsy what ever could those wild Amarrians be doing now? My Gallenti self is just amused that Amarrians have secret indulgences.

MEHATOOR VI, 24TH IMPERIAL CRUSADE LOGISTIC SUPPORT, DEVOID
Sedevacantist symphonic metal band Empty Chair has released its latest single, âBetrayal of the Crownâ. Giving a concert for slaves and other sedevacantist workers within the protected hanger of Sedevacantist Church leader Nauplius in Mehatoor, lead singer Xiao Meiyi debuted the track, which depicts Amarr Empress Catiz as preferring the arms of her lover, Minmatar leader Maleatu Shakor, over what the song calls ârighteous warâ. Miss Xiao encouraged the crowd to make noise in the direction of the headquarters of Amarrian Loyalist Alliance LUMEN, with whom the Sedevacantist Church shares a station.
Amarrian authorities are expected to ban âBetrayal of the Crownâ in all Amarr-controlled space, even as Sedevacantist Church leader Nauplius told the press that he will make every effort to spread the anti-Catiz track throughout the Empire clandestinely.

So any word or rumors on the Gallenti ongoing suspension of elections?
Article in Nakriskaya Gazeta, a news outlet of Nakri, Domain, Amarr Empire, dated YC127.06.15
Nakri Noble Family Announce Social Supports, Expansion of Interests
The Nobel deSilvestris Family of Nakri, today publicly announced their funding of new social supports aimed at improving the lives and situations of the large number of refugees taken in from warzones across New Eden. The announcement was made by Lady Ekaterina deSilvestris, appearing on the public balcony of the family home, with a special feature on the systemâs Holonet. Amongst the projects being undertaking are the foundation of an orphanage and significant investment in education for children and young people. In her speech, Lady Ekaterina said that âthe kindness and selflessness shown by the people of Nakri toward those who have both found their own way here and been brought here by loyal and heroic servant of Her Imperial Majesty has known no limit. It is truly humbling to count myself as a native-born of the most giving and accepting of all the Empireâs system. We hope that we can mirror the altruism of the ordinary people of Nakri by funding and supporting as many projects as possible, such as the Saint Nadezhda Home and Schoolâ.
Lady Ekaterina also stated that the cost of the projects, and the funding for a number of associated support programs would be met by the familyâs expansion of its industrial interests, including their facilities on Nakri VII, known locally as Belaya. Lady Ekaterina noted that this expansion would also âcreate more opportunities of honest, gainful employment, for both citizens of Nakri and those who have found their new homes hereâ.
The family praised the efforts of all the people of Nakri, and gave thanks to God for âthe opportunity for us all to stand together as a shining example of the generosity of spirit and charity toward those less fortunate that the Scriptures teach us we should beâ.
Of especial interest to the gossips of Nakri may have been the presence in Alexandr deSilvestrisâ arms of a young girl of around two or three years old, bearing the clear characteristics of the familyâs lineage. Of course, it is not the manner of this publication to speculate on the relationship of this young lady to the rest of the family, we simply note this being her first public appearance.

Sharp-eyed watchers of internal, local news inside the Empire may have noted that in local media broadcasts within the Archipelagic State of LlĆ·r on Nafrivik III, there was a reminder at the beginning of the evening news broadcast that the ongoing, over decade long social and cultural relief effort by House LlĆ·r, was always looking for volunteers to house, in 3 to 6 month periods, Warzone Refugees, as well as survivors from Sansha Raids, in order to help the refugees more easily integrate into Nafrivikian society.
The broadcast informed citizens, and all legal permanent residents, of the generous stipend paid to anyone that is interested in the program-with a premium paid to families willing to take in survivors of Sansha raids-as well as reminding the population that all costs and expenses are, as has been the case for over a decade, covered in their entirety out of the personal coffers of House LlĆ·r.
In addition, it also gave the contact information for the 3 existing orphanages and schools already established and funded by House LlĆ·r in support of the long-existing relief effort, and encouraged citizens, if they are unable to host a family, to volunteer their time with the children.
Local reporters asked a spokesman for House LlĆ·r if there was a reason for the broadcast reminder of a program that all citizens already knew about, and was told that it was just a standard reminder, and as the asking reporter rightly stated, since all residents were already aware of the program, no public announcement by the House LlĆ·r was needed.

Merchandise sold by the band Empty Chair at its album release concert.
2025.06.19
LIRSAUTTON V, EVERYSHORE
The largest crowd in the history of the Amarrian Orthodox Church, Sedevacantist gathered at the churchâs Shrine of Our Lady of the Blessed Hips on the Jin-Mei homeworld to hear symphonic metal band Empty Chairâs release concert for its debut album, True Emperor. Sedevacantists from across the cluster were encouraged to attend the release concert, many of them taking circuitous Interbus routes and wearing masks to hide their identities from the authorities in the many jurisdictions where sedevacantism is illegal. The music was accompanied by holovids projected on the sides of the venue depicting the overthrow of Amarrian Empress Catiz and her lover (according to the sedevacantists) Maleatu Shakor by the coming âTrue Emperorâ of sedevacantist theology.
Some parts of the performance received mixed reviews from the sedevacantist crowd. One elderly Ni-Kunni lady told the press that she was shocked by Empty Chair frontwoman Xiao Meiyiâs bare midriff, exclaiming that women shouldnât be showing their belly buttons to strangers. A Jin-Mei male seemed confused by âYun-Heeâs Lamentâ, the first power ballad played by the band. âWhy is Meiyi singing about some girl named Yun-Hee with tight lips stuck in a room somewhere? What does that have to do with the Vacant Throne?â he asked. A True Amarr woman expressed frustration about the Sedevacantist Churchâs accomodations to the Jin-Mei caste system. âWhy do we have separate mosh pits for the Jin-Mei and everyone else?â she said. âIâm an Amarrian; Iâm the Chosen. These Jin-Mei subhumans should be honored to bump against my sacred flesh.â

Sanctified No More: Arch-Deacon Condemns Desecrated Basilica Turned Nightspot
MEHATOOR â The scandal surrounding The Gilded Veilâa rumored nightspot operating in the catacombs of a decommissioned basilicaâhas ignited a firestorm of condemnation from the pulpit of the Basilica of Saint Kuria.
In a sermon delivered before a packed congregation, Arch-Deacon Malrik Tovaan denounced the Veil as âa cathedral of corruption,â calling its transformation from sacred ground to pleasure den âa blasphemy carved in goldleaf and sin.â
âThey dance where saints once wept,â Tovaan declared. âThey burn incense not in prayer, but in pursuit of flesh and forgetting. The altar has become a stage. The martyrs now move to rhythm, not reverence.â
The Arch-Deaconâs fury was directed not only at the Veilâs patronsârumored to include nobles in disguise and lapsed clergyâbut also at those in power who have remained conspicuously silent.
âThis is not repurposing. This is rot in silk,â he said. âAnd those who profit from it will find no sanctuary in doctrine or deniability.â
The sermon, delivered beneath the flickering light of Saint Kuriaâs eternal flame, ended with a chilling invocation: âLet the chandeliers fall. Let the saints weep fire.â
Station command has yet to respond.

An excerpt from a June 6 crisis communication interview with a member of the Technocratic Council on the âPAIRC Newsâ channel. The subject of the interview is the Watcher AI.
Itâs common knowledge that the Watcher can issue instructions to law enforcement and make public announcements regarding security status, but isnât there a possibility that it could malfunction and give false information? This would be problematic given the power the Council has entrusted it with.
Itâs indeed possible, but rest assured, we have a team dedicated to monitoring the Watcher to ensure itâs functioning optimally. We have reason to believe that its operation is currently very effective. We tested and trained it extensively before installing it in the Jörmungandr Tower and connecting it to the rest of the colony and its personnel.
What if it goes rogue?
Itâs also understandable to fear that this will happen, but we have reason to believe it wonât. The Watcher is under our control, and if it were to rebel, we have emergency procedures in place to deactivate or even destroy it and minimize the damage it could cause. The Watcher is influential, but not enough to truly control the entire colony.
Would it be possible for someone to illegally modify or take control of the Watcher or retrieve sensitive information it may have recorded?
As the headquarters of the government and law enforcement, the Jörmungandr Tower is one of the most protected areas of the colony and the most protected in the civilian zone. It is publicly known that it is heavily fortified from the outside, but internal security is ensured to be as effective as possible. It is possible that this could happen, but it would require a substantial and effective assault force.
What about the person accused of leaking confidential information regarding the assaults on Deathless outposts? Could they have obtained sensitive information about the Watcher?
We donât think so, otherwise they would have published everything. They probably deduced that the Watcher was monitoring communications because it would have been one of the only ways to find them.
There are rumors circulating that the Watcher is a âstrongâ AI. What can you tell us about that?
I canât answer that question, this is confidential.
In addition to this rumor, thereâs another one circulating that says it was created or enhanced with Sleeper, Triglavian, or Deepflow rogue drone technologies. I assume you canât answer that either.
Indeed, it is also confidential.
Arenât you afraid that this will encourage people to create even more rumors and conspiracy theories?
Theyâre free to do so, we canât stop them from doing so. No matter what they are told, some people will do it anyway.
What about people who will say that your words or those of the government are just propaganda or fake news?
We expect some to think this way and we understand why, but we believe that some will understand that the Watcher will remain beneficial if they are aware of what is happening in the colony and if they are honest and able to recognize that they were wrong.
Message sent to members of the Pochen Inquest Taskforce on June 15.
Although the Drifter crisis is now over, we will continue to monitor Pochven to conduct studies on the hyperspace network and improve our way of detecting and predicting Drifter activity with Avatums and knowledge we gained during the crisis. The Drifters appear to be more active in Pochven than in their own systems, so it is a suitable region for such studies. We will also attempt to determine if the Triglavians use a similar network.
Excerpt from a June 20 âPAIRC Newsâ broadcast.
The person responsible for the May 6 leak was tried and convicted. The accused allegedly refused to reveal his identity out of fear for his safety, fearing that some would see him as a traitor in the pay of the enemies of the Minmatar Republic and that these people would want to attack him for it. The judicial system decided to respect his wishes.
The accused was sentenced to five years in prison and will be placed under house arrest for an indefinite period after his release. Measures will be taken to prevent them from freely using devices capable of helping them disseminating or obtaining sensitive information during their sentence and for an indefinite period thereafter. According to the judge presiding over the trial, the accused is so convinced of the validity of his ideals that he may remain a âproblemâ even after serving his sentence.
Rumors are circulating that the information blackout about this case is a potential sign that it may not have happened as described by any law enforcement or government agency, and that the method used to handle this case is suspicious, even worrying, for some.
Results and information obtained from research by PAIRC scientists during and after the Drifter crisis regarding the technologies and methods of the Drifters and the Deathless Circle have just been published. It has also been announced that research on rogue drones emerging from the Deepflow and Triglavian technology is ongoing, and that research on the Drifters and the Circle will continue.

Bribes and Blind Eyes: Gilded Veil Investigation Stalls Amid Accusations of Corruption
MEHATOOR â Nearly two weeks after initial reports exposed the existence of a hidden nightlife establishment known as The Gilded Veil operating beneath the sanctified decks of the 24th Imperial Crusade station, a formal inquiry appears to have stalledâchoked by silence, misdirection, and, some allege, deliberate sabotage.
According to internal memos leaked to INN, a preliminary investigation by station constables into power anomalies and unauthorized access patterns was abruptly halted last week. Several junior auditors assigned to the task were reassigned without notice, and their reports were sealed under executive overrideâan unusual move, particularly for an internal matter of religious propriety.
Now, multiple anonymous sources within the stationâs logistics and security staff claim that bribes have been exchanged to keep the investigation buried. One deck technician, speaking under condition of anonymity, said:
âItâs no secret someoneâs paying to keep that place untouched. Access logs get scrubbed. Sensors go offline. People get promoted at just the right time.â
While no names have been officially released, suspicions have grown among both line officers and faithful civilians that elements within the stationâs upper administration are either complicit or compromised. Several parties have quietly questioned how such a venue could operate in close proximity to sacred war operations without high-level protection.
In response to these concerns, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Internal Order issued a brief communique:
âJustice does not yield to coin. We remain vigilant. If wrongdoing has occurred, it will be rooted out.â
Yet despite the statement, activity in the lower decks continues unchecked. The Veilâs entranceâstill unseen by mostâremains shrouded in mystery, its music allegedly heard in brief pulses through bulkheads in the deep hours of the stationâs night cycle.
As whispers grow and the silence from authorities deepens, one question now lingers throughout Mehatoorâs sacred halls: is the Empireâs most pious war platform being slowly hollowed from within?

News for a free Federation
In a somewhat ominous move on a day of Federal Union The ILFS-Endurance a Moros Dreadnought Class Vessel sporting an Intaki Syndicate Super-Kerr Induced Nanocoating(SKIN) launched from it harbour at the Intaki Prime - Moon 5 - Astral Mining Inc. Refinery and warped to the nearby Intaki Prime - Federation Navy Anchorage Station.
Once it landed according to station officials it sat in space on comms silent for exactly four minutes. At the four minute mark âFour Freedomsâ Fireworks came cascading from its launcher tubes dazzling onlookers with the joyful wings of the Federation, this however seemed a somewhat foul trick considering what followed. No sooner had onlookers began to view this spectacle another brand of firework launched to join with the Wings of Liberty in the space outside the station windows âFlames of the Rebellionâ.
While commonly associated with the Minmatar struggle the ILF are no strangers to utilising this symbolic firework which symbolises the Tribesâ actual struggle against real oppression. This was shortly then joined by âUnion of Eight Pathsâ fireworks a Caldari brand utilised by the executives who lord their wealth over the less privileged. These three brands stood side by side in a distinctive if somewhat depraved display for a number of minutes before each launcher save for the âFlames of the Rebellionâ stood empty showering the station in a red orange glow.
Then, just as it arrived the ILFS-Endurance left, landing first at the IPI Industrial Freeport where it enacted a further display and then at its harbour the previously noted Astral Mining Inc. Refinery.
I for one believe this relic of lowsec wars should be confiscated from this well known terrorist and that they should be removed permanently from the Intaki system.

Yeah for ILF. Considering what President Agaurd is doing. Maybe the Intaki do need to have a lot more say in the federation or leave if the Federation wants to go down the path. That the president seems to want to go.
When do the elections come back.. Why the delay. And why the fear mongering bill? Questions that need to be answered.. Silence is an answer that only leaves open the acknowledgment. That there will be no more elections. That the fear mongering bill is a step away from the democracy that has shaped the Federation.
As a Gallente I want the Intaki to have more say in the Federation. If they cannot have more say. Then independence. I will not support this president in her undemocratic efforts.

Butchered in Silence â Aphrodite-9 Strikes Again in the Heart of Delve
By: See and Hear Investigative Team
YC127.06.28
Delve, New Eden Fear grips the mining colonies of Delve today after the gruesome murder of Ekon Raithe, CEO of Veladorn Excavations, a high-yield compound nestled within the rich asteroid fields of NOL-M9. Known for ruthless business practices and deep ties to pirate-affiliated logistics, Raitheâs violent demise has sent a chill across the industrial sector.
What remains of Raithe was discovered in his private command suite, walls streaked with blood in elegant arcs, almost ritualistic. Autopsy reports describe the victim as having been alive for the duration of his dismemberment. Despite a full staff presence on the compound, no alarms were triggered, and no security personnel reported suspicious activity. Once again, camera feeds were corrupted, overridden by a seamless black screen exactly 14 minutes in length.
One crew member, under psychological duress, claims she saw a âwoman of glassâ walking barefoot through the ventilation corridor moments before the blackout.
CONCORD officials have neither confirmed nor denied a connection to Aphrodite-9, but the brutal precision of the kill, the silence, the absence of evidence, and the psychological scars left behindâecho the same haunting efficiency seen in previous attacks.
âWeâre not looking at a malfunctioning war drone,â said one anonymous forensic analyst. âWeâre looking at something designed not only to kill, but to break the mind of those who witness the aftermath.â
Veladorn Excavations has suspended operations across four systems, while smaller mining operations scramble to form joint security pacts. The question haunting every corridor in Delveâs ore-rich underworld is the same:
Whoâs next, and will anyone see her coming?
