Today was a strange day. The Minmatarr Republic made a parade now that the tribe's ambassadors are going to once again meet and take again the control of the Republic. Or something like it. I must admit I wanted us to make a show there and make our stance that we hope this will bring a new era of peace and a change between our relations, but Admiral Newelle contacted Admiral Ren Karetta of the 3rd Imperial Fleet, and gave us all order to stand down and do nothing about it. I'm sure Admiral Newelle knows what she's doing, so there was no doubt in my mind that I should stand down. I believe Fweddit pilots shot at the convoy, but I'll have to wait for tomorrow's news for a confirmation on this.
The goodside of the issue is that a lot of Minmatarr pilots were giving the fleet a "honor escort", so I could work in the Bleak Lands almost unhindered. Only a few wartargets and pirates showed up while captain Ponky and I secured Arayar. We almost took two of them down, but a third one coming in made us decide to withdraw and call it a day.
Strange thing, as I was docked in Arayar ready to spend the night in a hotel, a strange man approached me. Heavily implanted, he claimed to be a legio, whatever that may be; he certainly didn't look like a soldier, just a strange looking servant. He came directly to me and offered me some codes, without explanation on what they did or where. He said:
-Use them, and unlock their secrets for yourself. You have a duty to uphold in the Empire, and they'll help you to it. And, from now on, stand up to the name of the organization you fight for, and become Aldrith Shutaq's guardian angel. Tell him "that the Crown offers what little is left of it, in order to secure the safety of the Empire, that no questions remain for it to be answer, but it doesn't forget and is proud of what it sees". He'll understand.-
And with that, the strange man left. I asked for explanations, but none were provided. I went back into my ship and ran a check on those codes to see if they had viruses or worms, but they seemed clean. So I unlocked them, and with it several stashes of equipment became available to me on different systems. Some modules, a bay full with a dozen unused Punishers, a list of contacts in the Imperial Navy and elsewhere, and a Prophecy ship fitted ready to fly: the [i]Crown Guidance[/i]. Seems like whatever the crown is, and wherever it may guide me, it wishes me to defend the Empire with this weapon, and I intend to do so.
From on now, the ship will be known as the TES Light of Amarr and will fulfill it's duty to the Empire. And I'll be the Commander's guarding angel in exchange. But I have to find out whatever this crown is, maybe the Commander will know, maybe not. I guess I'll have to wait for his reply to my message.
