[ 2016.05.27 00:24:01 ] Aurelius Exodus > Ave Directrix, ave Velerra
[ 2016.05.27 00:24:23 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote is seated in the corner. ((Velarra may or may not here. People often lurk in bar channels))
[ 2016.05.27 00:24:39 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote rises. "Hello Admiral thank you for meeting ,e.":
[ 2016.05.27 00:26:19 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote sits down "Hello Directrix, thank you as well for taking the time to meet with me".
[ 2016.05.27 00:26:53 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote returns to her seat. "Of course, Admiral. Although I was surprised you applied to us, if I may say so"
[ 2016.05.27 00:27:28 ] Aria Jenneth > /emote pads in quietly, her customary long dagger tucked through the sash around her waist*
[ 2016.05.27 00:27:29 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote nods "Is it because of my military history?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:27:37 ] Aurelius Exodus > Greetings Aria.
[ 2016.05.27 00:27:56 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes, A-M has a long and distinguished history and is primarily combat. We.. do many things."
[ 2016.05.27 00:28:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Why are you thinking of leaving Lord Kithrus's side?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:28:23 ] Aria Jenneth > *bows politely* Ave, Admiral. *Aria, in person, is downright tiny-- about 4'10" and built like a bird*
[ 2016.05.27 00:28:54 ] Aurelius Exodus > I very much enjoy Kithrus' company, however A-M has been struggling
[ 2016.05.27 00:29:02 ] Aria Jenneth > *she pads quietly over to Luna's side, and finds herself a spot along the wall*
[ 2016.05.27 00:29:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:29:14 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Why is that, if i am not prying?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:29:43 ] Aurelius Exodus > I am an active fleet commander, and I prefer to run fleets with people and groups I am familiar with, as opposed to public groups with people I am not familiar with.
[ 2016.05.27 00:29:58 ] Aurelius Exodus > So running generic 24th Militia fleets is a bore for me.
[ 2016.05.27 00:30:12 ] Aurelius Exodus > I like running with SFRIM, PIE, groups like that.
[ 2016.05.27 00:30:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods, 'I can understand that. It also.. can be hard to keep adjusting to multiple pilot's styles as well as different values"
[ 2016.05.27 00:30:58 ] Aurelius Exodus > Um.......A-M has just been plagued with people leaving, we cannot hold corporatins or people for anyhting. It has been weeks since I have seen another member.
[ 2016.05.27 00:31:25 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "Have you engaged in self reflection as to why?" She looks a little concerned.
[ 2016.05.27 00:31:59 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "It's been.. peak time so to speak for the 24th IC'
[ 2016.05.27 00:33:01 ] Aurelius Exodus > Honestly I think it is a multi tiered issue. Other groups are offering more. We own no moons, no outposts, we struggle providing free ships for players. Honestly I out of pocket everything, as does Lord Kithrus, A-M is essentially broke.
[ 2016.05.27 00:33:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > Our fleets are usually 2 A_M members and handful of people we do not know, so we cannot fly more expensive ships since doing so in public fleets can result in issues.
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I assume you personally are self sufficient? We do offer limited SRP and some combat ships in Mehatoor with the expectation loot is returned to the Society to fund the operation"
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:14 ] Aurelius Exodus > So we really lack to fire power of PIE or PYRE that can bring real firepower when needed to take assets or defend the same.
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:10 ] Aurelius Exodus > I am not rich at the moment ((skill injectors are literally crack cocain)) However yes, I have a steady flow of ships ready to go and I make ISK as needed to fund my purchase of ships.
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "We are primarily industrial/exploration/agent work but we have a core of combat pilots. it is not a large group, you understand that?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Have you considered PIE?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > I have considered PIE but the Amarr Lock is not something I can fully commit too.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:05 ] Aurelius Exodus > I mean I do explo and help with industry, so I am no stranger to those.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:15 ] Aurelius Exodus > I do whatever I can to make ISK to fund my war machines.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Alright. Keeping in mind our limited nature with combat, generally just two days a week.. why do you want to join us?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:58 ] Aurelius Exodus > A few reasons. One is that I really like the members of your group. That is hands down the most important thing to me.
[ 2016.05.27 00:37:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > Two, I beleive I can be an asset, while yes your combat ops are limited I believe I can greatly assist with those and perhaps even get more going, as long as they do not conflict with other SFRIM ventures.
[ 2016.05.27 00:38:31 ] Aurelius Exodus > Three: I enjoy the fact that SFRIM is into multiple things, not just one. And lastly you are important to the Amarr Empire.
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods, "I appreciate that you feel that way. And yes, we do multiple things as I outlined in the materials I sent you."
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I see you are Caldari. Are you a convert?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > I am. would you like to hear my story?
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:53 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes, please"
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote eyes flicker over to Aria, then back to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:42 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote looks off into the distance briefly......than begins to speak "I was born into an important family in the Caldari Megacorp structure"
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote sips her drink that was already at the table with her.
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:02 ] Aurelius Exodus > As such, from an early age I was being groomed to become a critical asset without the structure.
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:20 ] Aurelius Exodus > ((within the structure+))
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:53 ] Aurelius Exodus > I soon became appalled at the greed of the megacorps, and looked to seek my own path. I was good at fighting, so I became a mercenary.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:35 ] Aurelius Exodus > Soon I became engulfed in the very greed that I was originally so appaled at. I would do anything for ISK, destroy anything, kill anyone, if you wanted someone gone and were willing to pay, I was your man.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns.
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:11 ] Aurelius Exodus > Eventually I realized that the course of my life was taking a downward spiral.
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:35 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote looks out into no where, the look of pain and guilt on his face
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:56 ] Aria Jenneth > *listens quietly-- well, probably listens. It's hard to tell*
[ 2016.05.27 00:44:09 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote takes a deep breath......."I decide to get out, I would take one last job, a seemingly noble cause, and then be I would be done."
[ 2016.05.27 00:45:10 ] Aurelius Exodus > My contract was sent via a diplomat of the Amarr Empire, the Minmatar had full control of the Low sec regions of Devoid and the Bleak Lands, and they needed warriors to reclaim those sytems.
[ 2016.05.27 00:45:48 ] Aurelius Exodus > At first it was just a job.......fighting needed to be done, ISK was ready to be made, I was in my comfort zone
[ 2016.05.27 00:46:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:46:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > But slowly but surely, I began to see a certain beauty in the Amarrian way of life. At first I thought that someone with such a black history such as mine would just be an on looked, someone who would be an oursider just looking in
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:12 ] Aurelius Exodus > But I was wrong, the Amarr embraced me, told me I could be forgiven, that redemption could be found.
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:28 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote smiles ever so slightly "I found my home."
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:41 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods with a faint smile.
[ 2016.05.27 00:48:11 ] Aurelius Exodus > Over time I became so powerful I began my own corporation fighting for the amarr, then eventually my own alliance. I never felt such pride.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:00 ] Aurelius Exodus > I met my wife, an Amarrian Noble, with ties to Empress Sarum, who I met several times and has been the high point of my life.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Oh? I should like to meet her some time.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > I soon decided to slow things down, I let my Alliance and Corporation into the hands of a trusted freind, who as it turned out was not so trustworthy.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:56 ] Aurelius Exodus > Certainly Directrix, That can be arranged.
[ 2016.05.27 00:50:07 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > I assumed when you married her you converted?
[ 2016.05.27 00:50:34 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was for the most part already converted, but that did cememnt it indeed. The ceremony was magnificent.
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles, envisioning it. She nods. "Turning to your comment of the alliance/corporation. What happened?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:22 ] Aurelius Exodus > Since then, I bounced between a few groups, looking for a more permenant set-up.
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:33 ] Aurelius Exodus > ((Awox Disband))
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > ((ouch))
[ 2016.05.27 00:52:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > My corporation is technically still alive, however it has been taken over by a blood raider spy.
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Tzedakah?" She frowns
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:09 ] Aurelius Exodus > Pride and Glory
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Ah I remember them"
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:31 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was the CEO during their prime.
[ 2016.05.27 00:54:18 ] Aurelius Exodus > And main FC which was my favorite part.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:25 ] Aurelius Exodus > We were heavily affiliated with CVA, and for a while we left the warzone in lowsec to join them in their null campaigns.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:54 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote enters wearing a wearing a yukata patterned with white SOE ship silhouettes. She sees Luna and gives a smile.
[ 2016.05.27 00:56:04 ] Aurelius Exodus > We stayed in null sec with them for a while, the high light was the burn provi goonswarm campaign. We were there for that.
[ 2016.05.27 00:56:34 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles at Jen and waves her over.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:15 ] Aurelius Exodus > And that in a nutshell is my story. I have many regrets and I have nightmares every single day from the horrors I commited, but now I have embraced a just cause.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:29 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote speaks these last words with great pride.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:37 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote walks over to Luna and smiles at her and her guest. "Good evening, L...Directrix."
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > Good evening Ms. Starfall.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "And the Empire is fortunate because of it." She says "Hello Legionarius, we have an interview of a potential new member" she indicates to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:29 ] Jennifer Starfall > Good evening, Mr. Exodus. It's good to see you again. It was a pleasure flying iwth you the other night.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > Indeed, I too enjoyed it,
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks at Aurelius "given that path.... what is the essence of the Amarr Faith to you? What does it mean? There's really no right or wrong answer."
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:30 ] Aria Jenneth > /emote bows to Jenn, not quite able to restrain a smile*
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:57 ] Aurelius Exodus > It is everything, there is no simple answer. The Amarr Empire stands for so much; beauty, love, faith, hope, justice..............
[ 2016.05.27 01:00:12 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote smiles at Aria. "Good evening, suuolo." She sits down and listens to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:17 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was essentially a walking dead man..........no more coherent than a Sansha Slave, but the Amarr offered me a new life..........a chance for redemption, peace, and the chance for love to enter my heart.
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "I assume.. those who introduced you to the faith didn't make you feel second class because you were Caldari? That all faithful are equal before God?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:26 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "if they follow his Scriptures and commandments?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:27 ] Aria Jenneth > *is standing near Luna, along the wall, not quite completely managing to look stoic and bodyguardly*
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:47 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote starts to speak than stops............he looks as if he is trying to choose his words carefully.
[ 2016.05.27 01:02:22 ] Aurelius Exodus > Um.......there were some issues. Some Amarrians do feel like only they can be true amarr, and everyone else is not quite on the same level.
[ 2016.05.27 01:02:56 ] Aurelius Exodus > However they are the minority, many of the Amarr I know see my piety and treat me no different than if I was Amarr Born.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:27 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I assure you.. it is important to the Society that we treat each other the same."
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:43 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote nods in agreement with Luna.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:54 ] Aurelius Exodus > My marriage into a noble family cemeted that, and in turn I treat all people the same, aside from active enemies against the empire.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Are you comfortable knowing we have a diversity of pilots.. from Jin-Mei, to Caldari, to Ammatar and even Brutor, besides the usual races?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > Indeed, I have no issue with Minmatar, I simply have an issue with the republic and their loyalists. That is why I hunt them down.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods, satisfied.
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:00 ] Jennifer Starfall > What about heathens?
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Do you believe in reclaiming just by slavery or also by preaching and example?" She adds?
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > If you mean heretics such as the Sani, I would love few things more than to erase such heresy from existance.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Good." She nods slightly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > but..
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:29 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > I think Jennifer means can you work with and co exist with those who are not faithful but also not enemies
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > I did marry into a slave-holding family, so as such I do own slaves. I consider myself to be one of the nicest slave holders and I offer paths for freedom, however I am not opposed neccasrily to freeind them all.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:54 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Such as our Caldari allies.. your former people.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:57 ] Aurelius Exodus > Yes indeed I can, and I do.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:21 ] Aurelius Exodus > I work with people of all races including the caldari.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:35 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:48 ] Aurelius Exodus > And many of my former minmatar slaves have stayed with me in free and paid positions and I am glad to have them.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:58 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You also answered my last question."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:07 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Admiral, why don't you fly with us one more time tonight."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:21 ] Aurelius Exodus > I plan on doing just that.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "And if you want to join us still.. i am happy to extend the invitation"
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:34 ] Aurelius Exodus > Thank you Directrix.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:36 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Just remember.. we are a NRDS corp."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote smiles greatly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:46 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "But Matari Militia and neuts who enter plexes are deemed red"
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > Certainly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "Ok. I need to tend to some Society matters, it was a pleasure." She rises. "Contact Maria or Daisha for fleet"
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > With so much time spent working with CVA, I am no stranger to the NRDS life, and A-M is sort of nrds though not as strict as cva.
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles. "Good night Admiral. Have a Blessed Night"
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:13 ] Aurelius Exodus > You to.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:23 ] Aurelius Exodus > Thank you again for speaking with me.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "of course" She exits.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:47 ] Aria Jenneth > /emote bows respectfully, then follows the Directrix*
[ 2016.05.27 01:11:25 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote bows

[ 2016.05.27 00:30:12 ] Aurelius Exodus > I like running with SFRIM, PIE, groups like that.

[ 2016.05.27 00:33:01 ] Aurelius Exodus > Honestly I think it is a multi tiered issue. Other groups are offering more. We own no moons, no outposts, we struggle providing free ships for players. Honestly I out of pocket everything, as does Lord Kithrus, A-M is essentially broke.
[ 2016.05.27 00:33:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > Our fleets are usually 2 A_M members and handful of people we do not know, so we cannot fly more expensive ships since doing so in public fleets can result in issues.
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:08 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I assume you personally are self sufficient? We do offer limited SRP and some combat ships in Mehatoor with the expectation loot is returned to the Society to fund the operation"
[ 2016.05.27 00:34:14 ] Aurelius Exodus > So we really lack to fire power of PIE or PYRE that can bring real firepower when needed to take assets or defend the same.
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:10 ] Aurelius Exodus > I am not rich at the moment ((skill injectors are literally crack cocain)) However yes, I have a steady flow of ships ready to go and I make ISK as needed to fund my purchase of ships.
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:18 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "We are primarily industrial/exploration/agent work but we have a core of combat pilots. it is not a large group, you understand that?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Have you considered PIE?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:35:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > I have considered PIE but the Amarr Lock is not something I can fully commit too.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:05 ] Aurelius Exodus > I mean I do explo and help with industry, so I am no stranger to those.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:15 ] Aurelius Exodus > I do whatever I can to make ISK to fund my war machines.
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Alright. Keeping in mind our limited nature with combat, generally just two days a week.. why do you want to join us?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:36:58 ] Aurelius Exodus > A few reasons. One is that I really like the members of your group. That is hands down the most important thing to me.
[ 2016.05.27 00:37:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > Two, I beleive I can be an asset, while yes your combat ops are limited I believe I can greatly assist with those and perhaps even get more going, as long as they do not conflict with other SFRIM ventures.
[ 2016.05.27 00:38:31 ] Aurelius Exodus > Three: I enjoy the fact that SFRIM is into multiple things, not just one. And lastly you are important to the Amarr Empire.
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods, "I appreciate that you feel that way. And yes, we do multiple things as I outlined in the materials I sent you."
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:33 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I see you are Caldari. Are you a convert?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > I am. would you like to hear my story?
[ 2016.05.27 00:39:53 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Yes, please"
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote eyes flicker over to Aria, then back to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:42 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote looks off into the distance briefly......than begins to speak "I was born into an important family in the Caldari Megacorp structure"
[ 2016.05.27 00:40:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote sips her drink that was already at the table with her.
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:02 ] Aurelius Exodus > As such, from an early age I was being groomed to become a critical asset without the structure.
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:20 ] Aurelius Exodus > ((within the structure+))
[ 2016.05.27 00:41:53 ] Aurelius Exodus > I soon became appalled at the greed of the megacorps, and looked to seek my own path. I was good at fighting, so I became a mercenary.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:35 ] Aurelius Exodus > Soon I became engulfed in the very greed that I was originally so appaled at. I would do anything for ISK, destroy anything, kill anyone, if you wanted someone gone and were willing to pay, I was your man.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods slightly.
[ 2016.05.27 00:42:42 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote frowns.
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:11 ] Aurelius Exodus > Eventually I realized that the course of my life was taking a downward spiral.
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:35 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote looks out into no where, the look of pain and guilt on his face
[ 2016.05.27 00:43:56 ] Aria Jenneth > *listens quietly-- well, probably listens. It's hard to tell*
[ 2016.05.27 00:44:09 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote takes a deep breath......."I decide to get out, I would take one last job, a seemingly noble cause, and then be I would be done."
[ 2016.05.27 00:45:10 ] Aurelius Exodus > My contract was sent via a diplomat of the Amarr Empire, the Minmatar had full control of the Low sec regions of Devoid and the Bleak Lands, and they needed warriors to reclaim those sytems.
[ 2016.05.27 00:45:48 ] Aurelius Exodus > At first it was just a job.......fighting needed to be done, ISK was ready to be made, I was in my comfort zone
[ 2016.05.27 00:46:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:46:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > But slowly but surely, I began to see a certain beauty in the Amarrian way of life. At first I thought that someone with such a black history such as mine would just be an on looked, someone who would be an oursider just looking in
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:12 ] Aurelius Exodus > But I was wrong, the Amarr embraced me, told me I could be forgiven, that redemption could be found.
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:28 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote smiles ever so slightly "I found my home."
[ 2016.05.27 00:47:41 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods with a faint smile.
[ 2016.05.27 00:48:11 ] Aurelius Exodus > Over time I became so powerful I began my own corporation fighting for the amarr, then eventually my own alliance. I never felt such pride.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:00 ] Aurelius Exodus > I met my wife, an Amarrian Noble, with ties to Empress Sarum, who I met several times and has been the high point of my life.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:38 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Oh? I should like to meet her some time.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > I soon decided to slow things down, I let my Alliance and Corporation into the hands of a trusted freind, who as it turned out was not so trustworthy.
[ 2016.05.27 00:49:56 ] Aurelius Exodus > Certainly Directrix, That can be arranged.
[ 2016.05.27 00:50:07 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > I assumed when you married her you converted?
[ 2016.05.27 00:50:34 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was for the most part already converted, but that did cememnt it indeed. The ceremony was magnificent.
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles, envisioning it. She nods. "Turning to your comment of the alliance/corporation. What happened?"
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:22 ] Aurelius Exodus > Since then, I bounced between a few groups, looking for a more permenant set-up.
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:33 ] Aurelius Exodus > ((Awox Disband))
[ 2016.05.27 00:51:40 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > ((ouch))
[ 2016.05.27 00:52:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > My corporation is technically still alive, however it has been taken over by a blood raider spy.
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:03 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Tzedakah?" She frowns
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:09 ] Aurelius Exodus > Pride and Glory
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:15 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Ah I remember them"
[ 2016.05.27 00:53:31 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was the CEO during their prime.
[ 2016.05.27 00:54:18 ] Aurelius Exodus > And main FC which was my favorite part.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:25 ] Aurelius Exodus > We were heavily affiliated with CVA, and for a while we left the warzone in lowsec to join them in their null campaigns.
[ 2016.05.27 00:55:54 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote enters wearing a wearing a yukata patterned with white SOE ship silhouettes. She sees Luna and gives a smile.
[ 2016.05.27 00:56:04 ] Aurelius Exodus > We stayed in null sec with them for a while, the high light was the burn provi goonswarm campaign. We were there for that.
[ 2016.05.27 00:56:34 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles at Jen and waves her over.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:15 ] Aurelius Exodus > And that in a nutshell is my story. I have many regrets and I have nightmares every single day from the horrors I commited, but now I have embraced a just cause.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:29 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote speaks these last words with great pride.
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:37 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote walks over to Luna and smiles at her and her guest. "Good evening, L...Directrix."
[ 2016.05.27 00:57:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > Good evening Ms. Starfall.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:05 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "And the Empire is fortunate because of it." She says "Hello Legionarius, we have an interview of a potential new member" she indicates to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:29 ] Jennifer Starfall > Good evening, Mr. Exodus. It's good to see you again. It was a pleasure flying iwth you the other night.
[ 2016.05.27 00:58:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > Indeed, I too enjoyed it,
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:09 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote looks at Aurelius "given that path.... what is the essence of the Amarr Faith to you? What does it mean? There's really no right or wrong answer."
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:30 ] Aria Jenneth > /emote bows to Jenn, not quite able to restrain a smile*
[ 2016.05.27 00:59:57 ] Aurelius Exodus > It is everything, there is no simple answer. The Amarr Empire stands for so much; beauty, love, faith, hope, justice..............
[ 2016.05.27 01:00:12 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote smiles at Aria. "Good evening, suuolo." She sits down and listens to Aurelius.
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:17 ] Aurelius Exodus > I was essentially a walking dead man..........no more coherent than a Sansha Slave, but the Amarr offered me a new life..........a chance for redemption, peace, and the chance for love to enter my heart.
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:17 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "I assume.. those who introduced you to the faith didn't make you feel second class because you were Caldari? That all faithful are equal before God?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:26 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "if they follow his Scriptures and commandments?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:27 ] Aria Jenneth > *is standing near Luna, along the wall, not quite completely managing to look stoic and bodyguardly*
[ 2016.05.27 01:01:47 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote starts to speak than stops............he looks as if he is trying to choose his words carefully.
[ 2016.05.27 01:02:22 ] Aurelius Exodus > Um.......there were some issues. Some Amarrians do feel like only they can be true amarr, and everyone else is not quite on the same level.
[ 2016.05.27 01:02:56 ] Aurelius Exodus > However they are the minority, many of the Amarr I know see my piety and treat me no different than if I was Amarr Born.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:27 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "I assure you.. it is important to the Society that we treat each other the same."
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:43 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote nods in agreement with Luna.
[ 2016.05.27 01:03:54 ] Aurelius Exodus > My marriage into a noble family cemeted that, and in turn I treat all people the same, aside from active enemies against the empire.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Are you comfortable knowing we have a diversity of pilots.. from Jin-Mei, to Caldari, to Ammatar and even Brutor, besides the usual races?"
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:04 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:45 ] Aurelius Exodus > Indeed, I have no issue with Minmatar, I simply have an issue with the republic and their loyalists. That is why I hunt them down.
[ 2016.05.27 01:04:57 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods, satisfied.
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:00 ] Jennifer Starfall > What about heathens?
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:24 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Do you believe in reclaiming just by slavery or also by preaching and example?" She adds?
[ 2016.05.27 01:05:50 ] Aurelius Exodus > If you mean heretics such as the Sani, I would love few things more than to erase such heresy from existance.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:02 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Good." She nods slightly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:13 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > but..
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:29 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > I think Jennifer means can you work with and co exist with those who are not faithful but also not enemies
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > I did marry into a slave-holding family, so as such I do own slaves. I consider myself to be one of the nicest slave holders and I offer paths for freedom, however I am not opposed neccasrily to freeind them all.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:54 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > Such as our Caldari allies.. your former people.
[ 2016.05.27 01:06:57 ] Aurelius Exodus > Yes indeed I can, and I do.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:21 ] Aurelius Exodus > I work with people of all races including the caldari.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:35 ] Jennifer Starfall > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:48 ] Aurelius Exodus > And many of my former minmatar slaves have stayed with me in free and paid positions and I am glad to have them.
[ 2016.05.27 01:07:58 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "You also answered my last question."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:07 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Admiral, why don't you fly with us one more time tonight."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:21 ] Aurelius Exodus > I plan on doing just that.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "And if you want to join us still.. i am happy to extend the invitation"
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:34 ] Aurelius Exodus > Thank you Directrix.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:36 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "Just remember.. we are a NRDS corp."
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:41 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote smiles greatly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:46 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "But Matari Militia and neuts who enter plexes are deemed red"
[ 2016.05.27 01:08:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > Certainly.
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:22 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods. "Ok. I need to tend to some Society matters, it was a pleasure." She rises. "Contact Maria or Daisha for fleet"
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:46 ] Aurelius Exodus > With so much time spent working with CVA, I am no stranger to the NRDS life, and A-M is sort of nrds though not as strict as cva.
[ 2016.05.27 01:09:51 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote nods.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:01 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > /emote smiles. "Good night Admiral. Have a Blessed Night"
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:13 ] Aurelius Exodus > You to.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:23 ] Aurelius Exodus > Thank you again for speaking with me.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:32 ] Lunarisse Aspenstar > "of course" She exits.
[ 2016.05.27 01:10:47 ] Aria Jenneth > /emote bows respectfully, then follows the Directrix*
[ 2016.05.27 01:11:25 ] Aurelius Exodus > /emote bows
