[ 2015.03.07 03:24:33 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “One of the things we do to try and make sense of this is to assign blame.  Who is to blame?  I’ve seen a lot of blame going around as I read some of the discussions and talk to others.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:24:56 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “I’ve seen people put blame on capsuleers in general, the Imperial Academy, God, the Khanid Kingdom and I even see people blame themselves, that they were not able to stop it.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:25:12 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “The truth is that is not where the blame belongs.  Nauplius is the butcher that committed this action and the responsibility rests on his shoulders alone. Capsuleers are not to blame, that God is not to blame, the Khanid Kingdom is not to blame.”

[ 2015.03.07 03:26:01 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote looks at the ground, clearly lost in his own thoughts.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote just looks drained, listening listlessly.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:19 ] Ibrahim Tash-Murkon > /emote continues to impersonate granite.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:23 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote looks out at everyone.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:33 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “We Amarr have been given the destiny of faith, to bring its message to every planet and every star in the heavens.  So, there is nothing that is not our problem.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:41 ] Samira Kernher > /emote keeps her hands in her lap, looking down at the floor as she listens.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:42 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote listens to the Bishop, eyes on her, studying.
[ 2015.03.07 03:26:43 ] Bel Boma > /emote pays better attention than her player is paying. Promise.

[ 2015.03.07 03:27:15 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “We are His shepherds in the darkness and His Angels of Mercy.  We have a duty to all of mankind.  For all things were created by the Divine and all of humanity, from the Empress to the lowest slave is given worth by God.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:27:34 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote nods in agreement
[ 2015.03.07 03:27:36 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “We are called to Reclaim everyone and we have done this for millennia through Holy servitude: the Udorians, some Khanid, the Ealur, the Ni-Kunni, and now the Minmatar.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:28:08 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “And this process has proven very successful in changing backwards or barbaric peoples into good righteous citizens of the Holy Amarr Empire.  This institution has proven the bedrock of Imperial society.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:28:18 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Our slaves are beholden to us for their needs, for their teaching, for guidance.  With this power, though, comes a great responsibility.  We must guide them to God and righteousness.”  She pauses. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:28:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly, refocusing a bit.
[ 2015.03.07 03:29:29 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Our treatment of them must bring them to the faith so that one day they may be freed to become citizens of our Great Empire.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:29:46 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote smiles at this
[ 2015.03.07 03:29:49 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Anyone that shows a slave mistreatment, be it from a holder to commoner, that pushes them away from God’s light, that person has sinned against God.”  Lyse repeats angrily. “Against God!”
[ 2015.03.07 03:30:14 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote raises her free arm into the air, pointing to the Most High. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:30:32 ] Bel Boma > /emote glances at U'tah, who she's still uncomfortably close to, then nods solemnly.
[ 2015.03.07 03:30:39 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Slaves are not items.  They are not machines.  They are men and women with Holy Worth.  It is our responsibility to properly care for them, to teach them and guide them.”  Lyse waits for an appropriate moment for the people to digest her words. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:31:18 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote smiles at the Bishop's words, but a brow creeps up as his mind wonders things unsaid.
[ 2015.03.07 03:32:24 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Be with these one million slaves, now, cramped together in the dark in the void of space with their loved ones close, frightened, just moments away from Nauplius’ lasers, not knowing what is to happen next.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:32:31 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote waits several moments, enough to let the people wonder if she is finished. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:32:46 ] Bel Boma > /emote wonders if she's finished.
[ 2015.03.07 03:32:56 ] Bel Boma > /emote is paying attention, she promises.
[ 2015.03.07 03:32:58 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote sneers at that name
[ 2015.03.07 03:33:10 ] Samira Kernher > /emote rubs her arm. Being the only former slave in the room, putting herself in the place of the dead ones is easy for her.
[ 2015.03.07 03:33:30 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote 's expression is locked into a state of stony, grim determination.
[ 2015.03.07 03:33:34 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote listens on as impassively as ever.
[ 2015.03.07 03:33:57 ] Kithrus > /emote bows his head, he is shaking slightly
[ 2015.03.07 03:33:59 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sits motionless
[ 2015.03.07 03:34:11 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “And then death at the hands of a psychopath.  If you feel a rage building inside you, that simply shows you are a good person.  Embrace it!”
[ 2015.03.07 03:34:28 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote almost snarls, “Let there be neither compassion nor mercy; nor peace, nor solace for this butcher!” She strikes her crosier to the floor and the sound echoes through the chapel. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:35:00 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks emotional, her face is pale.
[ 2015.03.07 03:35:12 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote stomps a foot to echo the fallen Crosier
[ 2015.03.07 03:35:47 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote remains unmoving though his hands are clenched in his lap.
[ 2015.03.07 03:35:53 ] Samira Kernher > /emote has burned out all her anger before now, so is just quiet.
[ 2015.03.07 03:35:59 ] Thal Vadam > /emote whispers a prayer
[ 2015.03.07 03:36:06 ] Ibrahim Tash-Murkon > /emote raises an eyebrow.
[ 2015.03.07 03:36:14 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote looks impatient.
[ 2015.03.07 03:36:25 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote continues in a much softer voice. “But in those last moments of terror and darkness for those one million souls, I have hope.  Hope that their holders, overseers, priests had taught them well.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:37:01 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “That these slaves called out to to the Lord to save them. And Nauplius’s lasers did not consign these slaves to oblivion, but rather delivered them to the arms of God.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:37:17 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “For that is the truth of the matter.  That we do not die period, but that we die comma.  That when thine actions are in the Light’s name, thou art immortal.”  Lyse pauses to let the people reflect.
[ 2015.03.07 03:37:59 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote reflects on how not fabulous he looks in a robe. And also the spiritual stuff.
[ 2015.03.07 03:38:35 ] Kithrus > /emote composess him self and raises his face to  Alizebeth Amalath
[ 2015.03.07 03:38:47 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote gives his first movement with a solitary approving nod, but soon returns to his statue-esque appearance looking up at the Bishop.
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:09 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “That is the truth of this, faithful.  That we, as capsuleers have immense power.  We have capabilities far beyond the baseline, but even still, we could not prevent this.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:18 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “It is a humbling reminder to put our faith in God and trust in the Lord.   That we have limits but the Almighty God does not.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:30 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly.
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:47 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote clasps her hands together in prayer and walks back behind the altar.  “Please kneel as we pray for the souls of the dead.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:49 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote nods finding answers to other questions in this
[ 2015.03.07 03:39:50 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods
[ 2015.03.07 03:40:02 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote kneels

[ 2015.03.07 03:40:35 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote kneels slowly.
[ 2015.03.07 03:40:47 ] Ibrahim Tash-Murkon > /emote would sigh and maybe roll his eyes if he thought he could get away with it but bends to his knees.
[ 2015.03.07 03:41:03 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote looks over sa someone somewhere had knocked over a hymnal
[ 2015.03.07 03:41:20 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Almighty Father, we, your children, are gathered here in sorrow to mourn the passing of one million souls, murdered by a heretic.  Your power brings us to birth, Your providence guides our lives, and by Your command we return to dust.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:41:35 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote kneels.
[ 2015.03.07 03:41:48 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Lord, those who die still live in Your presence, their lives change but do not end. I pray in hope for these one million slaves.  I pray that they were righteous in their lives and that you have welcomed them.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:42:12 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “We pray that you gather them into your arms, O Lord and welcome them into Your paradise, where they shall know no suffering, no anguish, no pain.  Where they are free to sing Your praises through eternity.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:42:23 ] Shalee Lianne > /emote kneels.
[ 2015.03.07 03:42:58 ] Alizebeth Amalath > “Holy Holy Holy Lord, God of Power and Might.  Heaven and the world are full of your Glory.  Hosanna in the highest.  Amen.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:43:12 ] Thal Vadam > "Amen"

[ 2015.03.07 03:43:52 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote murmurs "By His light and His will."
[ 2015.03.07 03:44:26 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote steps back from the altar and around to the front. She motions for the people to stand.  “After this, we will be meeting in the Holy Grape for a wake in memory of the dead. After the benediction, we will recess in silence in respect of the dead.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:44:37 ] U'tah Arareb > /emote stands

[ 2015.03.07 03:47:09 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote heads to the front of the altar and kisses it before falling in line behind her Acolyte and Thal.
[ 2015.03.07 03:47:24 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote ‘s acolyte steps off, swinging his relit censor.  The procession gets halfway down the aisle before stopping.  Lyse turns and once more kneels, her crosier flat on the ground and her forehead to the floor. *
[ 2015.03.07 03:47:41 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote mutters half to himself. "And death to the Butcher."
[ 2015.03.07 03:48:08 ] Thal Vadam > /emote bows before the alter, keeping the staff high
[ 2015.03.07 03:48:21 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote whispers to Aldrith, "By His light and His will."
[ 2015.03.07 03:48:23 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote stands and the procession leaves out the doors, but Lyse stops at the back and turns around.  “Go forth in peace, the service is over.  Praise be to God.”
[ 2015.03.07 03:48:29 ] Kithrus > /emote bows as Alizebeth Amalath passes

[ 2015.03.07 03:49:13 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote bows to the Bishop as she passes and again as she leaves.
[ 2015.03.07 03:49:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote sniffs slightly, rubbing her eyes.  She curtseys then departs.
[ 2015.03.07 03:49:38 ] Kithrus > /emote leaves almost marching out a grim look on his face

[[Post Service RP at Grape]]

:A surprisingly comfortable space in the Emperor Family Station in the Amarr system.The walls are paneled with dark wood. Periodically there are cross-hatched sections that serve to store wine bottles horizontally. The temperature is cool. There are multiple tables and booths with sumptious velvet red cushions. Stained glass lanterns and lights providing soft lighting. Each table has a wine & beverage list with a range of wines, ales, liquors and non-alcoholic drinks such as tea. A simple menu is also on each table that indicates that complimentary bread and assorted cheeses and fruits are provided to those who order by the bottle. Along one wall is a suit of golden armor with ceremonial sword and a tabard for the theology counsel that is cut for a femine figure along with a Picture. A square parquet dance floor is in the center of the room. The proprietor Vincentus Azizora and attentive wait staff are all baseliners.A Dinner Menu is available. A small ad in the menu refers to the nearby The Shriving Pew as "Serving Spiritual Needs since YC 117".A small sign on the bar says "Proudly serving Lodovica's Vitae"

[ 2015.03.07 03:50:01 ] Vincentus Azizora has set up stations with wine glasses and carafes and servers and various snacks and other drinks (alcohol and non) for any who come after the service.
[ 2015.03.07 03:52:46 ] Thal Vadam > /emote enters still dressed in robes and sits at a corner booth
[ 2015.03.07 03:53:22 ] Samira Kernher > /emote enters the Grape, still wearing her black dress and headscarf. She rubs the palm of her left hand idly, which is wrapped in a bandage. She looks around at the stations.
[ 2015.03.07 03:53:35 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote solemnly enters, and heads to the nearest station. And just sits.
[ 2015.03.07 03:54:07 ] Kithrus > /emote enters wearing his normal officer coat (orange and black) and heads to the bar nodding to the people he knows well (you know who you are)
[ 2015.03.07 03:54:32 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote wanders in and grabs a glass of ice-water and stands looking around the room.
[ 2015.03.07 03:55:13 ] Ibrahim Tash-Murkon > /emote can be seen walking in the hallway walking past the entrance of the Grape on his way to the lifts from the Chapel.
[ 2015.03.07 03:56:26 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote steps in, back in just her white cassock with gold sash.
[ 2015.03.07 03:56:46 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote bows his head at the Bishop.
[ 2015.03.07 03:57:26 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote enters, having slackened his distance with Samira. He lets her be for now as he wanders over towards Thal.
[ 2015.03.07 03:57:56 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote moves her hand in an arc. "So, where's the wine?"
[ 2015.03.07 03:58:10 ] Kithrus > Right over here your grace
[ 2015.03.07 03:58:15 ] Lord Kailethre > And here.
[ 2015.03.07 03:58:28 ] Kithrus > emote taps the bar as he gets a drink
[ 2015.03.07 03:59:17 ] Thal Vadam > /emote looks around the bar, his black beard and from the only visible things from his robes
[ 2015.03.07 04:00:16 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote heads over to the bar and gets a glass of wine. "It's been rightly pointed out that killing him is not the easiest thing, but as far as blowing up his ships and killing any baseliner that supports him, Deus Vult." she says to the crowd
[ 2015.03.07 04:00:16 ] Thal Vadam > ((and frown*))
[ 2015.03.07 04:01:27 ] Samira Kernher > /emote walks between the stations, idly looking at what's served and contemplating things.
[ 2015.03.07 04:01:39 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote looks at the Bishop listening, but saying nothing in reply to her observation. Instead moving to refill his glass with some more ice-water.
[ 2015.03.07 04:02:35 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote starts sorting through the snacks at the station he is at, and also pours himself a glass of wine.
[ 2015.03.07 04:03:00 ] Kithrus > /emote takes a drink

[ 2015.03.07 04:04:52 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote sits by Thal, and searches for his cigarette case in his pockets. "Vadam. Do you smoke?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:05:43 ] Kithrus > /emote turns to everyone
[ 2015.03.07 04:06:00 ] Thal Vadam > "Not usually Sir, but tonight i'll make an exception"
[ 2015.03.07 04:06:29 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote taking a few snacking bites of his biten snacks.
[ 2015.03.07 04:06:42 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote makes her way over to Thal, waiting until he is done talking to his superior.
[ 2015.03.07 04:07:01 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote pulls two hand-rolled cigarettes from his ornate silver case and hands one to Thal. He lights his and hands the lighter to Thal.
[ 2015.03.07 04:07:10 ] Kithrus > I don't speak for everyone, I never even been that good at speaking but I will say this: I cringe when I think of Maria being in one of those cans. I wish I was there.
[ 2015.03.07 04:07:52 ] Arkon Sarain > /emote puts down his glass and exits hands clasped behind his back, eyes focused on some distant thought.
[ 2015.03.07 04:07:54 ] Kithrus > I could claim what I would have done but I'll never know.
[ 2015.03.07 04:08:01 ] Kithrus > I just wish I was
[ 2015.03.07 04:08:12 ] Thal Vadam > /emote lights the cigarette and takes a smoke "Thank you captain"
[ 2015.03.07 04:08:18 ] Kithrus > /emote takes a drink
[ 2015.03.07 04:08:45 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote notices Alizebeth and places his freshly lit cigarette in the table's ash tray before standing and bowing. "Bishop, correct?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:09:29 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote waves for Aldrith not to bother with a bow. "Yes. I am not sure we've met, captain, was it?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:09:55 ] Thal Vadam > /emote sets his cigarette in the ash tray, stands and bows
[ 2015.03.07 04:10:53 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote nods and picks up his cigarette, taking a brief drag that doesn't interrupt the flow of the conversation. "Yes, Fleet Captain Aldrith Shutaq of the Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris. I saw that Classiarii Vadam was in the ceremony."
[ 2015.03.07 04:11:38 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote is still idly poking through and eating snacks, his expression is blank.
[ 2015.03.07 04:12:32 ] Kithrus > /emote takes a drink and wanders over to a seat
[ 2015.03.07 04:12:44 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Yes, I had asked him to be the lector and he did a splended job. I was just coming over to thank him again for his participation in the service."
[ 2015.03.07 04:13:23 ] Thal Vadam > "It was an honor your excellency"
[ 2015.03.07 04:14:35 ] Samira Kernher > /emote quietly just prepares a bowl of salad, finding nothing else she really feels like eating. She then walks over to a booth and slides into it.
[ 2015.03.07 04:15:47 ] Kithrus > /emote motions * Samira Kernher over
[ 2015.03.07 04:16:08 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote smiles. "Well, thank you again. Blessings to you both."
[ 2015.03.07 04:16:39 ] Thal Vadam > /emote bows before returning to his booth
[ 2015.03.07 04:16:52 ] Samira Kernher > /emote glances at Kithrus. She sighs, not looking much in the mood for talking with people. But she walks over. "May I help you, milord?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:17:08 ] Kithrus > How are you holding up?
[ 2015.03.07 04:17:51 ] Samira Kernher > "I'm fine, milord, thank you for asking."
[ 2015.03.07 04:18:21 ] Kithrus > /emote nods
[ 2015.03.07 04:19:27 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote nods politely to Alizebeth. "I am sure we will meet again, bishop. This age is sorely in need of spiritual guides. You are quite literally a godsend."
[ 2015.03.07 04:20:52 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Of course. I will make myself available to anyone that needs the help of the church. And when I can fly combat ships better, join you in your fight against the Butcher."
[ 2015.03.07 04:21:35 ] Aldrith Shutaq > We will welcome you with open arms. Amarr Victor.
[ 2015.03.07 04:22:28 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Pax Amarr."
[ 2015.03.07 04:22:44 ] Samira Kernher > "Was there something you wanted to speak to me about, Lord Crases, or just to ask me my well-being?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:23:08 ] Aldrith Shutaq > That would be lovely too. Alas, we have to win a few more victories before that peace.
[ 2015.03.07 04:23:17 ] Kithrus > Just asking, it was good seeing you at the service.
[ 2015.03.07 04:23:31 ] Kithrus > sorry if I kept you
[ 2015.03.07 04:24:48 ] Samira Kernher > "Of course, milord. It was good to see you as well. Have a good evening."
[ 2015.03.07 04:24:56 ] Samira Kernher > /emote curtseys, and heads back to her booth.
[ 2015.03.07 04:24:58 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote nods. "It's an ideal to work to. I have faith in God."
[ 2015.03.07 04:25:47 ] Kithrus > /emote nods saddly and takes another drink
[ 2015.03.07 04:26:52 ] Aldrith Shutaq > As should we all.
[ 2015.03.07 04:27:27 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote makes an audible crunching noises as he eats one of the snacks, stopping suddenly halfway through and looking around awkwardly.
[ 2015.03.07 04:28:20 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Thank you for coming to the service." she says to Aldrith before going over to Kithrus "Evening, your lordship."
[ 2015.03.07 04:29:14 ] Kithrus > evening
[ 2015.03.07 04:29:22 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote sits back down and turns his attention to Thal. "I had seen her name in the Imperial Congregation but I had no idea she was a holy woman..."
[ 2015.03.07 04:29:51 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Good to see actual clergy amongst us once again.
[ 2015.03.07 04:30:04 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "I had the same difficulty after meeting her captain"
[ 2015.03.07 04:30:23 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Mmm. I wouldn't call it a difficulty.
[ 2015.03.07 04:30:46 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "I hope the service was meaningful to you?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:31:01 ] Samira Kernher > /emote quietly eats her salad at her booth.
[ 2015.03.07 04:31:02 ] Thal Vadam > "You would if you referred to her as a holder"
[ 2015.03.07 04:31:22 ] Kithrus > It was, thank you it was very well done.
[ 2015.03.07 04:31:39 ] Kithrus > Your grace has a tallent for call to arms may I add
[ 2015.03.07 04:32:30 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Heh. I suppose so.
[ 2015.03.07 04:32:45 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote smiles modestly. "Why, thank you. Usually I try and give people a spiritual peace. But, when it comes to blooders, the only solution is a mace in their skull."
[ 2015.03.07 04:33:26 ] Kithrus > I would be inclined to agree.
[ 2015.03.07 04:33:48 ] Kithrus > I wasn't aware he turned blooder though
[ 2015.03.07 04:34:22 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote pours another glass of wine, having already drunk the first, and continues to absent mindedly eat snacks.
[ 2015.03.07 04:34:24 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Nauplius? Well, it is clear now. Sadly."
[ 2015.03.07 04:34:56 ] Kithrus > Sadly yes, as if we didn't have immortals to fight
[ 2015.03.07 04:35:45 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "I admit, I was hoping to see Maria at the service."
[ 2015.03.07 04:35:51 ] Samira Kernher > "He turned blooder a year ago, and has murdered over 4 million people in that time."
[ 2015.03.07 04:36:10 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote sighs out a cloud of smoke as he stares off at Samira. "I worry about her."
[ 2015.03.07 04:36:45 ] Samira Kernher > /emote settles back to her food, having said all that she wanted to say.
[ 2015.03.07 04:36:51 ] Thal Vadam > "As do i Sir, i confess the LT inspires me"
[ 2015.03.07 04:38:29 ] Kithrus > She had exams today and was planet side
[ 2015.03.07 04:38:56 ] Kithrus > Shes almost done he classes.
[ 2015.03.07 04:39:37 ] Kithrus > her*
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:14 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "I will forward her the text of my sermon, if you wish?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:19 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Heh, be careful about how you let her know that; it might put too much pressure on her already fragile will. Not that there isn't already an enormous amount of it on her already.
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:26 ] Aldrith Shutaq > She's stronger than she seems, but she still has limits.
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:28 ] Kithrus > I think she would like that
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:43 ] Aldrith Shutaq > This whole Butcher situation tries her.
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:50 ] Kithrus > May I ask you something your grace?
[ 2015.03.07 04:40:57 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Of course."
[ 2015.03.07 04:42:12 ] Thal Vadam > "As it does me, but her faith and desire to meet are foe in battle wherever he is, she has the soul of a Classiarii"
[ 2015.03.07 04:43:12 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote corrects Thal with a smile, "Praetorian. We are all warriors of God. We just use differnt tools, not different spirits."
[ 2015.03.07 04:43:20 ] Kithrus > Its a tradition in the Amarr bloc of capsulleers to sware in the executors. I was wondering if we, as I have already asked PIE for assistance to host such an event in the future. Nothing has ben set in stone yet as far as I know. I'd like to do it right
[ 2015.03.07 04:43:31 ] Kithrus > with a clerics blessing
[ 2015.03.07 04:43:52 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote just looks puzzled. *
[ 2015.03.07 04:44:06 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Elaborate, your lordship?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:44:12 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Of course Sir"
[ 2015.03.07 04:44:42 ] Thal Vadam > "Still...she is an honorable sort"
[ 2015.03.07 04:44:55 ] Kithrus > When CVA, PIE or AM has had a new leader he swares to uphold the faith and the amarrian way of life. I'd like your blessing for mine.
[ 2015.03.07 04:47:39 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Oh. I would be honoured."
[ 2015.03.07 04:47:44 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Mmm. Yes. She tries very hard...
[ 2015.03.07 04:47:58 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote pauses a moment in thought. "I think I'll go check on her."
[ 2015.03.07 04:48:09 ] Thal Vadam > "Some day, i shall let her know"
[ 2015.03.07 04:48:23 ] Thal Vadam > /emote nods "Yes sir"
[ 2015.03.07 04:48:31 ] Kithrus > As would I, now you grace one last thing I would like your blessing tonight before I turn in. I have much work todo and I need all of the graces God is willing to grant.
[ 2015.03.07 04:51:15 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote makes another loud crunching noise, accidentally.
[ 2015.03.07 04:51:26 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote nods. "Of course." She places her hand one Kithrus's head. "May the Almighty God bless you, Lord Kithrus, and keep you in His Grace. May His Light and Will ever guide you. Amen."
[ 2015.03.07 04:51:37 ] Kithrus > /emote bows his head.
[ 2015.03.07 04:51:51 ] Kithrus > thank you your grace, I bid you good night
[ 2015.03.07 04:52:58 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Good night, your lordship."
[ 2015.03.07 04:53:17 ] Kithrus > /emote bows again finishs his drink and walks out
[ 2015.03.07 04:53:55 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote stands and meanders over to Samira's side, finishing his cigarette on the way.
[ 2015.03.07 04:54:15 ] Samira Kernher > /emote pokes at the remnants of her salad.
[ 2015.03.07 04:56:20 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote pours a third glass of wine, and eats more snacks.
[ 2015.03.07 04:56:56 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote looks her over, already having noticed the bandage on her hand. "So. What did you hit? Another mirror or did you crush a glass with your bare hand?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:58:20 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote goes over to Lord Kailerthre "Evening, your lordship."
[ 2015.03.07 04:58:33 ] Lord Kailethre > Hello your excellency.
[ 2015.03.07 04:58:42 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "How did you find the service?"
[ 2015.03.07 04:59:09 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote frowns, "I'm not fond of gloomy things but, it was nice."
[ 2015.03.07 04:59:11 ] Samira Kernher > "The second," she says, without looking at him. Unsurprisingly, she as well looks rather poor, having deigned to not put on any makeup today, probably only deciding to go at the last minute. Her eyes are red and there are deep black rings beneath them.
[ 2015.03.07 04:59:52 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "I hope it was meaningful?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:01:04 ] Lord Kailethre > As meaningful as it can be. Unlike Miss Kernher I can't really empathise beyond understanding the horrific nature of this tragedy.
[ 2015.03.07 05:01:35 ] Thal Vadam > /emote stands and heads for the door
[ 2015.03.07 05:02:27 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Well... we're all allowed to be a little mad sometimes.
[ 2015.03.07 05:03:15 ] Thal Vadam > /emote walks by Samira "Atash Classiarii LT" He heads for the door and exits
[ 2015.03.07 05:03:30 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Yes, she is the next one I will speak to. But as holders and True Amarr in general, it falls on us to take the responsibility to work to see that this never happens again. I've created a petition to have slaves removed from sell orders. I hope that
[ 2015.03.07 05:03:36 ] Alizebeth Amalath > people will support it."
[ 2015.03.07 05:03:54 ] Samira Kernher > /emote nods at Thal, giving a brief, "God bless." She then looks back at Aldrith.
[ 2015.03.07 05:04:21 ] Lord Kailethre > I have no power to change it. But I will try to give support.
[ 2015.03.07 05:04:28 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote eats another snack.
[ 2015.03.07 05:05:20 ] Samira Kernher > /emote looks back at her food. "It's punishment."
[ 2015.03.07 05:05:44 ] Aldrith Shutaq > For?
[ 2015.03.07 05:06:10 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Well, I will just bother people until they change it to make me go away." she smiles sweetly
[ 2015.03.07 05:06:21 ] Samira Kernher > "Failure to stop it."
[ 2015.03.07 05:06:57 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote sighs, and eats another snack.
[ 2015.03.07 05:07:08 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote enters the holy grape wearing a 24IC flight uniform.
[ 2015.03.07 05:08:45 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote places her hand on Kailethre's shoulder "The peace of our Lord be with you. Also, you'd asked to speak with me, now that the service is done, I will make time for us tomorrow, if that works?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:09:31 ] Aldrith Shutaq > I know you are going to blame yourself for this no matter what I say, so I won't try to dissuade you.
[ 2015.03.07 05:09:54 ] Lord Kailethre > Y-yes.
[ 2015.03.07 05:11:15 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote picks up a glass of dry white wine.
[ 2015.03.07 05:11:46 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Do know, however, that amongst us all, you are the least to blame, and yet punished the most.
[ 2015.03.07 05:11:48 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote bows her head to Kailethre and heads over to Samira, not interrupting Aldrith. She's not following him, she swears!
[ 2015.03.07 05:12:22 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote begins to light another cigarette. "I find that tragic."
[ 2015.03.07 05:13:27 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote takes one look at Samira and decides it's better not to interrupt.
[ 2015.03.07 05:14:07 ] Samira Kernher > "I'm Minmatar," she says, as if that rationalizes it.
[ 2015.03.07 05:14:34 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "And?" she asks Samira softly.
[ 2015.03.07 05:15:40 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote takes the opportunity to take a drag from his cigarette as Alizebeth picks up the argument.
[ 2015.03.07 05:15:42 ] Samira Kernher > "Missions 42:5."
[ 2015.03.07 05:18:07 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "You know, that doesn't speak of punishment."
[ 2015.03.07 05:19:37 ] Samira Kernher > "We are the worst of His failures. We're the furthest away."
[ 2015.03.07 05:21:16 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote frowns deeply. "God doesn't do failure, child. While the Minmatar people might have turned away, we are in the process of reclaiming them. Some have been reclaimed, others are in the works. But the Minmatar are closer to righteousness than th...
[ 2015.03.07 05:21:41 ] Alizebeth Amalath > than the Gallente, or Sansha or any other number of pirate groups."
[ 2015.03.07 05:22:19 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote takes a deep sigh, and takes a plate of snacks and a bottle of wine over to a booth.
[ 2015.03.07 05:22:28 ] Aldrith Shutaq > She is speaking of capsuleers. Clones.
[ 2015.03.07 05:22:56 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote speaks up. "I've never thought of Missions 42:5 as applying to a collective group. It is probably one of the most intensely personal passages I can think of."
[ 2015.03.07 05:23:42 ] Samira Kernher > "No I'm not, sir."
[ 2015.03.07 05:23:45 ] Samira Kernher > "I'm talking about Minmatar."
[ 2015.03.07 05:23:59 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote raises a brow at her. "Really?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:24:00 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "She said she was Minmatar, not a capsuleer. That's another can of worms." Lyse takes a seat, because she's old and well, no one around is going to tell her no. *
[ 2015.03.07 05:24:24 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Still, my point stands."
[ 2015.03.07 05:25:15 ] Samira Kernher > "God hates us."
[ 2015.03.07 05:25:26 ] Samira Kernher > "It's why this happens. It's why it keeps happening."
[ 2015.03.07 05:25:41 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "God hates the Minmatar? That's an incredibly bold statement."
[ 2015.03.07 05:28:07 ] Samira Kernher > "Doesn't He? We keep spitting on Him. He offered us mercy and we threw it away."
[ 2015.03.07 05:28:50 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "So, we should just go purge the Mandate then?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:29:55 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote frowns.
[ 2015.03.07 05:29:58 ] Samira Kernher > "No..."
[ 2015.03.07 05:29:59 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "God doesn't hate the Minmatar, no matter what you think. God is incapable of hatred, which is why He is Just. God's wrath is immense, but do not describe it as hatred."
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:01 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "And you've just blamed God. That God is responsible for this action. Maybe you missed that part of my homilty where I said it was Not. God's. Fault."
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:19 ] Samira Kernher > "I didn't say it was His fault! I said it was ours!"
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:32 ] Samira Kernher > "We've failed Him! That's why we get punished!"
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:49 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "God does not use instruments like Nauplius to carry out His will. His Light, His Will is not done by heretics."
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:52 ] Aldrith Shutaq > The Butcher is the one who failed.
[ 2015.03.07 05:31:54 ] Samira Kernher > /emote clenches her jaw together after that outburst, shrinking in her seat.
[ 2015.03.07 05:32:14 ] Karmilla Strife > You know he probably gets off on that Butcher title....
[ 2015.03.07 05:32:27 ] Karmilla Strife > just because he's nameless, doesn't mean we should empower him.
[ 2015.03.07 05:33:02 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote nods to Karmilla "That is probably true. What do you suggest we call him?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:33:34 ] Samira Kernher > /emote stays quiet. she pokes at her salad.
[ 2015.03.07 05:33:49 ] Karmilla Strife > what he is. False Prophet, Heretic, etc....
[ 2015.03.07 05:34:02 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote smirks to himself, "The Failed One."
[ 2015.03.07 05:34:15 ] Karmilla Strife > There you go.
[ 2015.03.07 05:34:32 ] Karmilla Strife > That's not the sort of title that a Sabik can boast about.
[ 2015.03.07 05:35:44 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "I like it. Make sure the people know that is his name, Captain." She looks back to Samira. "The fact is that these slaves were from the Kingdom, and likely that the majority of the slaves killed were not even Minmatar. The fact is that if God wants
[ 2015.03.07 05:36:23 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Mmm... The Khanid breed an awful lot of Gallente, actually.
[ 2015.03.07 05:36:30 ] Samira Kernher > "They were Minmatar. They were all Minmatar. That's all he goes after."
[ 2015.03.07 05:36:42 ] Aldrith Shutaq > True. He would have made sure of that.
[ 2015.03.07 05:36:44 ] Alizebeth Amalath > to punish someone, He doesn't use a heretic to do it. That while the Minmatar are rather recalcitrant, they are hardly a failed race."
[ 2015.03.07 05:37:03 ] Samira Kernher > "Everyone that is not True Amarr is a failed race."
[ 2015.03.07 05:37:29 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "There are plenty of Sani Sabik that go after True Amarr only. Does that make the True Amarr a failed race?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:38:14 ] Samira Kernher > "No. They're God's Chosen."
[ 2015.03.07 05:38:23 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Not failed beyond Redemption. Not at all."
[ 2015.03.07 05:40:01 ] Karmilla Strife > He does what he does to get a response.
[ 2015.03.07 05:40:38 ] Karmilla Strife > Lt. Kernher you've opposed him more than anyone else. He tailors his actions to get the most response out of you.
[ 2015.03.07 05:41:03 ] Samira Kernher > "So it is my fault."
[ 2015.03.07 05:41:24 ] Karmilla Strife > This doesn't mean that anything is your fault. It means that you have closest to beating him of all of us.
[ 2015.03.07 05:41:37 ] Aldrith Shutaq > That he does. Your own personal agent of the Deciever. You should be honored the great Evil wishes to destroy you the most.
[ 2015.03.07 05:41:42 ] Karmilla Strife > He's desperate.
[ 2015.03.07 05:42:38 ] Karmilla Strife > You've destroyed his every attempt to legitimize himself in acts that would draw together the Sani Sabik underground community.
[ 2015.03.07 05:42:58 ] Karmilla Strife > His facilities, his attempts to re-write scripture.
[ 2015.03.07 05:43:04 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "This might be your test of faith, child."
[ 2015.03.07 05:43:09 ] Samira Kernher > "It hasn't stopped him."
[ 2015.03.07 05:44:19 ] Karmilla Strife > In one year he's given up all of his plans and reverted back to the only thing he can accomplish. Murdering those who can't flee and can't fight back.
[ 2015.03.07 05:44:30 ] Karmilla Strife > It's nasty, and it's terrible.
[ 2015.03.07 05:44:47 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote lets those that know the history speak on this. *
[ 2015.03.07 05:45:12 ] Karmilla Strife > But he's weakening, and that's how you kill sabik capsuleers. You weaken them.
[ 2015.03.07 05:46:33 ] Samira Kernher > "How is he weakening? He killed more yesterday than the total of every single tower combined."
[ 2015.03.07 05:48:35 ] Karmilla Strife > He is unable to effect his will as he as attempted in the past. He cannot take blood, so he has to buy it. He cannot kill faithful in arms, so he must kill cargo in the vessels of his ally's own ships.
[ 2015.03.07 05:48:52 ] Karmilla Strife > I know you still see it as a loss. I do to.
[ 2015.03.07 05:49:23 ] Karmilla Strife > It's not easy to win against people like him, for many of the reasons you have stated publicly on the IGS.
[ 2015.03.07 05:49:58 ] Aldrith Shutaq > The billion he used on the Providence is a billion that will not be used to purchase more slaves.
[ 2015.03.07 05:51:26 ] Karmilla Strife > I strongly suspect that he was provided with slaves. The last time he murdered a million, Lunarisse and I checked regional market records. Unless he had been buying for longer than a year, he did not buy them at that time.
[ 2015.03.07 05:52:13 ] Karmilla Strife > And what organisation has a stockpile of millions of slaves and is provided with resources and unarmed transport vessels such as freighters?
[ 2015.03.07 05:52:24 ] Samira Kernher > "Oh fuck off with that."
[ 2015.03.07 05:52:49 ] Samira Kernher > "I'll not have you decrying one of the few capsuleers who actually does any -good- in this universe because you find his thread annoying."
[ 2015.03.07 05:52:57 ] Samira Kernher > "Fucking petty."
[ 2015.03.07 05:53:08 ] Aldrith Shutaq > What, Ston?
[ 2015.03.07 05:53:15 ] Karmilla Strife > You don't think it's a coincidence?
[ 2015.03.07 05:53:19 ] Samira Kernher > "No, I don't."
[ 2015.03.07 05:53:59 ] Samira Kernher > "There are fucking hundreds of millions of slaves on the market available at any time, from heretics in the Civic Court and the God-damn Kingdom."
[ 2015.03.07 05:54:03 ] Samira Kernher > "That's where he gets them."
[ 2015.03.07 05:54:22 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Considering his cooperation with the Kameira Program, I really don't think an associate of the Failed One would be in the business of providing PIE with a small army of unshakably loyal troops.
[ 2015.03.07 05:54:31 ] Karmilla Strife > and if a capsuleer buys a slave on the SCC market. the number of slaves purchased that day in the region increases.
[ 2015.03.07 05:54:57 ] Samira Kernher > "Then he's probably bought them earlier, instead of all in one day. He's been a capsuleer for over six fucking years."
[ 2015.03.07 05:55:10 ] Samira Kernher > "Maybe he's had all of these for years."
[ 2015.03.07 05:55:24 ] Samira Kernher > "It's certainly a better assumption than condemning one of the only good capsuleers out there."
[ 2015.03.07 05:55:28 ] Karmilla Strife > that's possible. The records Lunarisse and I checked did not go back that far.
[ 2015.03.07 05:55:43 ] Karmilla Strife > I don't think Ston is good.
[ 2015.03.07 05:56:01 ] Karmilla Strife > I know enough criminals to be familiar with their trade.
[ 2015.03.07 05:56:28 ] Samira Kernher > "You've been one long enough, sure."
[ 2015.03.07 05:56:36 ] Karmilla Strife > I've also been a part of collective that has freed 250,000 slaves and never encountered any of the obstacles he claims.
[ 2015.03.07 05:56:36 ] Samira Kernher > /emote rolls her eyes and shakes her head.
[ 2015.03.07 05:56:51 ] Karmilla Strife > They're all free now, not in someone's hangar.
[ 2015.03.07 05:57:13 ] Samira Kernher > "Do you say the same thing about Ms. Ymladris?"
[ 2015.03.07 05:57:22 ] Karmilla Strife > No
[ 2015.03.07 05:57:28 ] Samira Kernher > "Why not? She does the same thing."
[ 2015.03.07 05:58:06 ] Samira Kernher > "no, the fact is that you, like so many other utterly petty people, get annoyed by the constant posting on the thread and decide that that's a good enough reason to raise suspicions about someone's motive."
[ 2015.03.07 05:58:15 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote listens intently, there is a lot she is unaware of and that needs to change. *
[ 2015.03.07 05:58:25 ] Karmilla Strife > Because I haven't done as much research on her arcology, and because my Matari contacts haven't mentioned any distrust of her.
[ 2015.03.07 05:58:44 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote is still poking through and eating snacks.
[ 2015.03.07 05:59:07 ] Karmilla Strife > I think she's an I-Red bootlicker, but that's not quite the same thing.
[ 2015.03.07 06:01:05 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote sighs. "It's not Ston."
[ 2015.03.07 06:02:08 ] Karmilla Strife > It's entirely possibly that you're right. But Ston has used Amarrian strawmen before to further his agenda.
[ 2015.03.07 06:02:46 ] Karmilla Strife > It's not impossible that he would cater to one of the most deviant minds of our era to further his cause.
[ 2015.03.07 06:02:58 ] Samira Kernher > "He's a pacifist. He wouldn't allow people to get killed."
[ 2015.03.07 06:03:19 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "Forgive me if I ask a stupid question. Who is Ston?"
[ 2015.03.07 06:04:04 ] Samira Kernher > "He's someone that patrols border areas to rescue people that capsuleers jettison into space to avoid customs."
[ 2015.03.07 06:04:18 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Ston Momaki, leader of the Deciples of Ston.
[ 2015.03.07 06:04:23 ] Karmilla Strife > And collects them in concentration facilities.
[ 2015.03.07 06:04:28 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "He sounds like the opposite of Nauplius."
[ 2015.03.07 06:04:35 ] Karmilla Strife > He re-educates them as he sees fit
[ 2015.03.07 06:05:09 ] Samira Kernher > "I'll trust Ms. Aspenstar's investigations into his facilities over yours."
[ 2015.03.07 06:05:24 ] Karmilla Strife > As you wish.
[ 2015.03.07 06:05:51 ] Karmilla Strife > Maybe I've just worked with bad enough people that I see the worst possible.
[ 2015.03.07 06:05:56 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote shrugs.
[ 2015.03.07 06:06:04 ] Samira Kernher > "Maybe you should stop working with bad people."
[ 2015.03.07 06:06:35 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote smiles. Can't argue with that one. *
[ 2015.03.07 06:06:49 ] Karmilla Strife > Like calls to like, Lieutenant. I think it's been made abundantly clear that I'm not Praetorian material.
[ 2015.03.07 06:07:10 ] Karmilla Strife > So I'd rather do bad things to bad people and hope it cancels out.
[ 2015.03.07 06:07:21 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote gives Karmilla a smirk, wincing at the sick burn.
[ 2015.03.07 06:07:45 ] Samira Kernher > "And I'm Minmatar. When you are bad, you resist the bad and try to be better."
[ 2015.03.07 06:07:51 ] Karmilla Strife > Don't smirk at me Aldrith. You're the one that put the idea in my head so many years ago...
[ 2015.03.07 06:08:02 ] Samira Kernher > "You don't -embrace- the bad."
[ 2015.03.07 06:08:10 ] Samira Kernher > "And accept it."
[ 2015.03.07 06:10:54 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "You know, for a woe is me Minmatar, you are incredibly feisty." Lyse says approvingly
[ 2015.03.07 06:11:04 ] Karmilla Strife > I serve the Empire as best as I'm able.
[ 2015.03.07 06:11:27 ] Samira Kernher > "Then your best isn't good enough."
[ 2015.03.07 06:11:34 ] Karmilla Strife > Really?
[ 2015.03.07 06:12:03 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote starts to say something and holds back.
[ 2015.03.07 06:12:15 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Now, now...
[ 2015.03.07 06:12:17 ] Samira Kernher > "Really."
[ 2015.03.07 06:12:41 ] Karmilla Strife > I shut down Silas Vitalia.
[ 2015.03.07 06:12:46 ] Karmilla Strife > How's your target Sabik doing?
[ 2015.03.07 06:13:35 ] Samira Kernher > "Deception is the weapon of demons, not God."
[ 2015.03.07 06:13:41 ] Samira Kernher > "And deception is what you cling to."
[ 2015.03.07 06:14:13 ] Karmilla Strife > I told her to her face what I intended to do when she recruited me.
[ 2015.03.07 06:14:19 ] Karmilla Strife > Her hubris destroyed her.
[ 2015.03.07 06:15:01 ] Samira Kernher > /emote shakes her head to herself. She scoots further into the booth, so that she can lean against the corner between the wall and the seat.
[ 2015.03.07 06:15:09 ] Samira Kernher > /emote doesn't respond.
[ 2015.03.07 06:15:30 ] Aldrith Shutaq > Perhaps we shouldn't crowd her right now.
[ 2015.03.07 06:15:34 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote looks to Karmilla and raises her hand. That's enough
[ 2015.03.07 06:15:43 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote sighs. "This conversation did not go as I had planned. I apologize."
[ 2015.03.07 06:16:13 ] Karmilla Strife > /emote stands and leaves the holy grape.
[ 2015.03.07 06:16:37 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote stands, flicking his head towards Karmilla. "I'll take her cue and leave you two alone for now."
[ 2015.03.07 06:17:46 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote gets up to refill his plate with snakes before going right back to his booth.
[ 2015.03.07 06:17:46 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote nods and turns to Samira. "It's not your fault. I know you're going to beat yourself up over this no matter what I say. I've seen it before. But God's church is here to help in any way we can. Call me any day or night."
[ 2015.03.07 06:18:19 ] Samira Kernher > "Ok."
[ 2015.03.07 06:18:58 ] Aldrith Shutaq > And you always know where to find me, Samira.
[ 2015.03.07 06:19:11 ] Samira Kernher > "Yes sir."
[ 2015.03.07 06:19:37 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote makes another audible crunch as he bites into something.
[ 2015.03.07 06:19:57 ] Alizebeth Amalath > "And if you don't. I'll come find you." she smiles. "All of God's children are my responsibility. Even Minmatar. Especially Minmatar."
[ 2015.03.07 06:20:49 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote stands and raises her arm for a blessing. "May the Almighty God guide you. May His Light guide your steps and His Will your hands."
[ 2015.03.07 06:21:02 ] Aldrith Shutaq > /emote bows and makes his way out.
[ 2015.03.07 06:22:12 ] Samira Kernher > /emote lowers her head. "Thank you, your grace."
[ 2015.03.07 06:22:48 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote heads over to get a plate of cheese and looks around to see if there's anyone else she needs to talk to.
[ 2015.03.07 06:23:29 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote found himself a new bottle of wine.
[ 2015.03.07 06:24:33 ] Samira Kernher > /emote pushes her bowl away. She then pulls down her headscarf and takes a headset out of her handbag, which she puts on. She then flicks a button on it, and rests back in her seat listening to the quiet music.
[ 2015.03.07 06:25:41 ] Alizebeth Amalath > /emote frowns just slighly at Kailethre's bottle and heads out
[ 2015.03.07 06:27:32 ] Lord Kailethre > /emote would've returned the frown if he was paying attention, but has now taken out his datapad.
[ 2015.03.07 06:37:26 ] Samira Kernher > /emote eventually gets up and leaves the Grape.

[[Luna didn't go to the Grape]]

Set upon a grass-covered plateau on the planet Oris sits the Amarr Legio Basilica. The sight that greets each pilot when they first enter the Basilica grounds is a large granite archway fifty feet tall, under which is draped a massive golden spun-silk banner bearing the Amarrian double-bow. Before the entrance is a guarded security checkpoint, where all weapons must be turned in before entering. Just behind this lies a rack of inactive holo drones, which facilitate capsuleers who are unable to be present in person. Passing through the archway leads the pilot into a high vaulted passage, with various banners bearing the sigils of Amarrian heros hung between alcoves along the way. Below these stand statues honoring every ruler in the Emipre's long history, the last statue being dedicate to the current Empress, Jamyl I. After about fifty yards the passageway opens into the Amarr Legio Basilica itself. Gilded pillars reach from the marble floor to the ceiling, supporting a huge domed roof covered in frescos of Scriptural stories. Around the entire work of art is a wreath of Holy Scripture in gold filigree, the lines selected to correspond with the stories depicted.The gaps between the pillars are connected with smaller archways creating quiet, more private alcoves. These archways are topped by magnificent stained glass windows depicting ancient saints and warriors of the faith. Colored light streams upon the center of the main arena from them.The nave is a circular, open public space, with several ornate tables (complete with comfortable seating) and a large fountain. Wherever a person stands their eye is drawn to the apse at the very far end of the Basilica. Behind a few rows of pews and a carved cherry wood railing is a large stone altar, simple in adornment except for two large golden braziers with gentle incense smoke rising from them. Behind the altar is a decorated stone pedistal atop of which stands a sixty-foot tall statue of a praying angel, gazing down upon the open space. Two large open doors stand on either side of the Basilica, the left leading to a cloister with a garden where a small non-alcoholic refreshment bar stands. A large pool of water flanked by tall trees lies in the center of the gardens and stretches a hundred meters long. The right door in the nave leads to the dormitory wing, which contains room, board and offices for residents, staff and guests, as well as a small adjoining chapel.

[ 2015.03.07 04:00:48 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote enters the Basilica. She looks drained. She sits quietly in the back and pulls off her headdress letting her hair fall down.
[ 2015.03.07 04:02:36 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote exhales and closes her eyes and just sits.
[ 2015.03.07 08:03:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote gets up after a long while of sitting in silence. She walks out to the gardens even though it is night.
