BloodBird Gallente Federal Defence Union	Posted - 2008.08.20 12:19:00 - [5] Thanks for the information, slave. I don't think I'll join, but your master might just hear from me one day. Also, if I had got'n here faster I might have understood what Stitcher is talking about. I'm sure it would have been rather... strange.

I don't think I'll join, but your master might just hear from me one day. Her mistress would be me. What do you have to say to me? Originally by: Kimochi Rendar Originally by: Stitcher ... "Costumers"? Perhaps they have somesort of play planned..? This pilot is a clear example of why booster addiction is neither big nor clever. I think it was an error in message input, and customer was meant, not costumer. Although, that said, dressing up is a fun game. However, If people want to dress up as slaves and masters and whip each other for sexual gratification, as in the Gallente bondage domination fantasy fashion, then that is largely their own affair, unless they do it in the street and frighten the horses. If any of my associates have opened a club for this sort of purpose, it is news to me. I shall investigate. As for drugs, I don't believe that's the case. To say Rhen is a slave does not describe our relationship properly. Slavery tends to imply coercion, drugs, violence, that sort of thing. None of that is the case. Rhen's status is entirely of her own choosing.

Although, that said, dressing up is a fun game. Maybe it's unfair of me - it's certainly prejudiced - but I tend to immediately think less of a person's opinion if they can't even be bothered to properly vet and edit their message before submitting. If a message is worth transmitting, it's worth being careful and considered over it first. A little light mockery is a relatively harmless way of encouraging them to put more care and attention in next time. ((OOC: before anyone points out the whole "second language" thing, in my experience the vast majority of posts made in bad English are made by native English speakers. If the OP is not a native speaker, they have my apologies))

Or perhaps it's just reality. GIGO, you know. Garbage In, Garbage Out.

Veron Daerth Amarr Blood Meridian	Posted - 2008.08.21 23:14:00 - [11] Edited by: Veron Daerth on 21/08/2008 23:14:42 I wouldnt say that Amarrian electronics are so very bad. <Veron Daerth looks under his console, his voice continuing slightly muffled> This translator has never failed me yet, though I do have all my equipment checked regularly. Hmm. It looks dusty under here, I'll have to have the cleaners come in again soon. <His head pops up, and he can be heard clearly again> I think it has to do with local accents and such. While each sub set of the various nations speak their own language, I have noticed that, for example, an Intaki born and raised on Intaki Prime sounds very different from an Intaki born and raised on Gallente Prime. Even though they speak the same language. Toss in some slang terms or words that sound or are spelled the same and have different meanings (bear and bare) or are contextual in nature (bear/carry and bear/animal), and you have a good way to make even the most advanced translator hiccup. Just a thought. God be with you all.

Interestingly enough, that makes very little sense in Caldanese. Part of it got translated as "...contextual in designated-function (carry/carry) and (animal-bear/animal)". "Animal" in Caldanese is either: A) a monosyllabic prefix used to signify a living creature: "Ji". A live bear is a Jikumuo, whereas a dead one is an Inkumuo, and a stuffed one would be reclassified as an inanimate object via the suffix "taa", causing it to become an inkumuotaa (lit.: "dead-animal bear object"). or B) Niijiakaum, referring to all animals (lit.: "Pertaining to/animal-prefix/all") My respect for the people who program translators continues to grow by the day. - Lt.

Kimochi Rendar Ghost Festival	Posted - 2008.08.23 17:26:00 - [15] Originally by: Kathryn Dougans What is? Both at the same time? Where do you shop? A video feed opens, showing a view of a stylishly decorated room with a huge panoramic window looking out onto the planet below. Kimochi is standing in close view and is wearing a perfectly tailored dress made of a glossy dark purple material with exquisitely crafted silver filigree accents that clings firmly to her hips and delicately kisses the floor about her feet. I was referring to Miss Rhen's status being of her own choosing... Maybe I am misreading her intentions, but choosing to be someone's slave seems rather kinky to me. And as for where I shop, I get the majority of my clothing custom made. Haute Couture is one of my favourite hobbies... There really is nothing like wearing clothing that is designed especially for you! She treats the camera to a twirl, the material of her dress catching the light. If you are interested I can put you in touch with several very good designers. Mention I sent you and they may even give you a discount... Kimochi winks and touches a holographic control panel to end the transmission. Ghost Festival is now recruiting!

Jtharra K'thain Minmatar Coriolis Commerce Cluster	Posted - 2008.08.23 21:26:00 - [17] No one chooses to be a slave. Love has nothing to do with freedom. Just because you love your slave, doesn't give you the right to own her. You can think you love a pet, and you may think it loves you back. It's still just a pet that believes pleasing her owner is the only way of life. People are not pets. They are better of in the wild, roaming free between the nebula's. If you truly love her, you will set her free. She want's to or not. I have no respect for one that chooses to become controlled. It implies weakness. And if this is only some sort of kinky love game... it's rather tasteless to mock the many true slaves suffering under the hands of their so called masters. Oh, and by the way. Lovely dress Kimochi. /Born in chains, raised in freedom.
Kimochi Rendar Ghost Festival	Posted - 2008.08.23 23:02:00 - [18] Ooh, a party... What's the occasion? And Jtharra K'thain, What if the slave genuinely loves their servitude? What if being able to cater to their master or mistress' whims brings them more pleasure than they could ever hope to get if they where 'free'? I'm not suggesting that your view is invalid, i'm merely curious. Oh, and thank you for the compliment! That dress is a particular favourite of mine.. It was designed by Sebastian LaCroix in Caille. Ghost Festival is now recruiting!
Jtharra K'thain Minmatar Coriolis Commerce Cluster	Posted - 2008.08.23 23:32:00 - [19] Originally by: Kimochi Rendar And Jtharra K'thain, What if the slave genuinely loves their servitude? What if being able to cater to their master or mistress' whims brings them more pleasure than they could ever hope to get if they where 'free'? I'm not suggesting that your view is invalid, i'm merely curious. Slavery is, in it's essence, appalling and wrong. If someone genuinely loves servitude they are more often than not sick or mentally unstable, unfortunately something quite common amongst slaves. I believe you would be surprised to find how many slaves that claim, or even believe that they love the position they are in. The power of indoctrination and suppression of the free will is stronger than one might think. I have no doubt that the woman in question, if she can be called that in her weakened state, indeed loves her master. Or rather, believes that she does. I find it disturbing that a man or woman in a position of dominance and power abuses this "love". Think of it as children. A child beeing raised, beaten and suppressed will she not still love her parents? Just because you love something or someone doesn't make it right. Love is not an excuse for abuse. The woman in the comm becomes silent for a moment, as if she is pondering a distant past. ... Anyway. Slavery is wrong, it doesn't matter if its voluntary or not. And if it is just a game they are playing if it indeed is true love twisted in some strange act. Then I find that they are mocking my people and what we are fighting for. Originally by: Kimochi Rendar Oh, and thank you for the compliment! That dress is a particular favourite of mine.. It was designed by Sebastian LaCroix in Caille. The woman before the comm sits down and the camera follows her, probably hovering on a drone. She looks tired and pale, even for her Sebiestor tribe heritage. She wears a brown pod-suit still wet from the suspension in the pod and it is clear she isn't exactly dressed for a party. I seldom have time to think of such thinks as dresses and clothes, I envy you... you remind me of someone I had almost forgotten. But... She sighs and locks at a beeping console to her right transmitting an encoded message. ...that's for another time. She reaches for the camera and the comm abruptly ends. /Born in chains, raised in freedom.

I do understand how you would find that kind of thing insulting, but I guess i'm more liberal-minded than a lot of pilots. Originally by: Jtharra K'thain I seldom have time to think of such thinks as dresses and clothes, I envy you... you remind me of someone I had almost forgotten. You should spend some time and money on yourself, Jtharra. Take some time away from the capsule, buy yourself some new outfits with that insane Capsuleer budget of yours and enjoy yourself. It's important to let go and indulge yourself from time to time, lest you become detatched from the world. She sounds genuinely concerned. Many a pilot has become dangerously obsessed with death, destruction and strife due to a lack of downtime. Don't become one of them. Ghost Festival is now recruiting!

Jtharra K'thain Minmatar Coriolis Commerce Cluster	Posted - 2008.08.24 01:05:00 - [21] The comm starts up again, this time she is dressed in a rusted metal and stin-alloy suit, probably some sort of make-shift captains uniform. She is holding her right hand at her side in bandage, although healing implants should heal it quickly. She is, or was beautiful, but strife and war has made her a pale comparison to what she once was. Originally by: Kimochi Rendar Hmm, we come from very different backgrounds so I suppose I find it hard to see your point of view... I do understand how you would find that kind of thing insulting, but I guess I'm more liberal-minded than a lot of pilots. We do indeed come from different backgrounds, although I should not be presumptuous and claim that I know anything of yours. I genuinely hope that you did not suffer the strife and injustice that I did as I was younger but I'm sad that you don't have the experience. After all that has happened, I have become stronger. I sit here today talking to you as a pilot, something none thought would be possible. She sits down in a dirty and oily seat and the camera drone hovers closer, she seems tired but determined. You say you are liberal, and free-thinking I assume. It's as you say rare to find that amongst pilots. I fear I'm not very liberal myself anymore. I commend you. But I must confirm my views. Slavery... can never be accepted. And I will be cloned a hundred times before I let go of hope to find... Silence. Originally by: Kimochi Rendar You should spend some time and money on yourself, Jtharra. Take some time away from the capsule, buy yourself some new outfits with that insane Capsuleer budget of yours and enjoy yourself. It's important to let go and indulge yourself from time to time, lest you become detatched from the world. She smiles for the first time in the conversation but seems quite unused to it. However much I would like to do that, sit idly in a bar over a cup of aged spice-wine or wander the streets of Crystal Boulevard in Caille spending a fortune on cloth and scents... I can't. I feel like I don't have time. It's strange... I think now. That in all my struggle for success, I have no time to enjoy it. Not the wondererous life I imagined as I first submerged myself in the comforting pod. Music, culture. I don't even know how to enjoy myself anymore... She grow silent again and looks directly into the camera. Originally by: Kimochi Rendar Many a pilot has become dangerously obsessed with death, destruction and strife due to a lack of downtime. Don't become one of them. I fear it's to late for that... My path is clear. I cannot be weak if I am to be successful. But perhaps we should not keep this conversation in an open channel. I fear we're taking this subject far out of topic. /Born in chains, raised in freedom.
Veron Daerth Amarr Blood Meridian	Posted - 2008.08.24 02:26:00 - [22] Pilot K'Thain, I have read your words with some... hmm... trepidation and a bit of sadness. I once suffered a great loss. My family, whom I loved (yes, we Amarrians do know of and do love) dearly, were killed along with many of my fathers retainers, guards, serfs, and slaves. My father went insane from the grief and embarked on a hopeless and insane crusade against the culprits, the Blood Raider Covenant. He set out with but a single battleship to fight against an entire pirate nation. He lived... for a time. Then he was killed. But the man that died that day was already dead. He died the day my sister and brother fell, there in the fields and halls. My mother followed father into God's arms, soon after. Only I remained. I like my father, fell victim to my grief and rage and hate. I followed it out into the darkness between the stars, and there, it consumed me. I was a better tactician than father, and I killed many. I spared none that stood against me, and madly laughed in the blackness that had covered my soul. Do you believe in spirits? I do. My little sister saved me. Dead those many years, she saved me nonetheless. When I put that pulser against my head, and pulled the trigger, I should have died. The sonic discharge should have pulped my brain and that would have been it. To this day, I marvel that it didnt fire. It sits on my desk right now, a monument to death and slaughter and the consequences of them. When I lay there, screaming and weeping and hyped on who knows what boosters, Mishara came to me. There in my moment of absolute despair and anguish, she brought me out of it. I am certain now of what I should be doing, and how I should be and do, for always, there behind me, is Mishara. Her gentle soul guides me, and shines the light that blew away the darkness, and soothed my pain. Though I can never forget the hurt of her death, I can now go forward, with her, with all of them, watching, guiding me. You, Pilot K'Thian, in the near future, may find yourself on the brink of the Abyss, if you havent already. You will look into it, as we all do sometimes. What will be hard, is looking away. Of letting go of the rage and hate that burns in you. If you let it drive you, let it rule you, you will fall. Not to an enemy, though that too is possible, no... you will fall to your own hand. And you will be lost forever in the Abyss. Take some time, Pilot. The universe isnt going anywhere. Meditate, think, let it go, do what you have to, but dont let your rage and hate eat you alive. May God grant you the same Mercy in Death that you showed others in Life, Pilots.
Jtharra K'thain Minmatar Coriolis Commerce Cluster	Posted - 2008.08.24 03:10:00 - [23] The comm springs to life with, this time with a somewhat bad transmission, probably due to some interference from a nearby gas cloud or from heavy encryption. Jtharra looks cold and grim as she strikes up a conversation with the Amarrian pilot. I usually don't take time to debate the issues of freedom, slavery, love or life with an Amarrian, but I've seen that you are more approachable than most. One of few good sides of your Amarrian heritage I am sure. You say you too know off loss, yet you care nothing for ours. You lost your siblings and your parents, as have so many others. But no other people have lost what we have lost, fought like we have fought for the simple things i life that most take for granted. Perhaps we were born for servitude as most Amarrians claim, But I'd be damned if it's the destiny we will grow up to. I believe that you felt love for your family, but I am not sure what kind of love we are talking about, as all versions of love I've seen in amongst the Ammarian people is different from what I've been thought. I know for a fact that the master I was born to indeed thought he loved me, and in his mind I'm sure it was true. But it was no love I cared to give back. I'm not saying you are incapable of love, just that the Amarrian people are just as much bound by your own chains as your slaves. Indeed, your are perhaps more slaves to your own culture that we ever were. We, at least, had the strength to try to break free. You say you felt rage, rage for what they did to your family. Then even if you find my methods wrong, you cannot deny my right for revenge, even if it takes me to your abyss. The raiders killed your family, and even if you now feel no hatred against them, you cannot say that what the did was right. At the mention of sisters Jtharra grow even colder and a weak flimmer of hatred grows in her eyes. I'll just skip the part about drug induced visions, I try to keep my mind clear and I ... She takes a deep breath, as if trying to control something. Pilot Daerth, I'll try to keep this civilized. Yes, I am already on the brink of the Abyss. I was born here. All my hatred, all my anger and all that I am now, is thanks to the treatment your people gave me. You've been near the abyss and came back, good for you. We are cursed to live here for, by my ancestors, I don't know how long. We don't like you have the choice to go back to a comfortable life of contemplation and meditation. We don't have the luxury to put a pulser to our own chin, someone else put it there for us. She grows silent again, and for a moment a bit of fear or sadness can be seen in her eyes before she is consumed by anger again, as the Amarrian somehow seem to have struck a nerve. Don't speak to me about loss again Pilot Daerth. I weep for your family, but it was no doing of mine. But my loss, was brought by the Amarrian people. I bid you to release your slaves and return to your contemplation, if that is what will bring your people rest and comfort by all means, return to your Gods. But leave us to ours. Our God is our families, our tribes and our freedom to roam where we want. I might be lost, but other perhaps, will find their way out of this. Find a way of peace before the galaxy collapses upon it self. The transmission ends. /Born in chains, raised in freedom.
Veron Daerth Amarr Blood Meridian	Posted - 2008.08.24 05:24:00 - [24] <Veron Daerth's image appears, he is sitting in his office, on a Gallentean station.> Pilot K'Thain, I am indeed disheartened to hear your words.I have pondered them, considering how to respond. You have been harmed, this is evident. I cannot fix it, nor make it as if it never happened. I do not know what your master did, or why. You should know that most slaves in the Empire are not habitually beaten, or abused, or ****d or wahtnot. This makes it rather difficult for them to work, no? Dead and starving slaves dont make good workers. However, that said, it DOES happen to some, and it is deplorable. But I cant change it, not alone, and not in my lifetime. You may wish, by the way, to consider some possible solutions to the issue of slavery that do not include the deaths of thousands or millions. Lord Vision also had some ideas for how to integrate the slaves into Amarrian society. Even if you do not agree with the idea's put forth, remember that there are also others that seek solutions to the problem, even if they do not always agree with you. You say that I care not for your loss. I presume that you mean your people's loss. It is a part of human nature that we do not empathize with those we do not know of. We CAN sympathize with them, but not empathize. I, frankly, do not know you, or your people. I do not know of your ways, or your customs. I do not know much of your religion, though I am gathering information about several belief systems extant in the cluster. I do not know of your history, beyond a few notations and some mostly forgotten history lessons from school, all those long years ago. You personally, I would not know if you walked up and spat in my eyes. I can hear of "your loss", and in some ways, I feel a sense of ... injustice, a bit of abstract sadness, but any real passion... I am sorry, but no. I cannot weep for every child orphaned, every wife widowed, every family rent and torn asunder. Neither can you. There arent enough tears to shed for them, isnt enough ISK to buy their homes and lives back (if they could at all), there isnt enough space in the vastest memory core of the greatest computer to record all their names. There are too many for you to save. You will break yourself trying. And the few you CAN aid, will never receive it if you do. It is a hard and harsh world, Pilot K'Thain. The innocent suffer and their tormentors rarely are brought to task. We each of us, must do what we can to stem the tide, but hold it back? Shoulder the burden of an entire species? That is simply not possible, Pilot. You will go mad from the grief alone, to say nothing of the anger and rage and hate. Love... love is strange. My wife would tell you that the idea of "love" like on the holo-reels and the vids is foolish, and I would agree. I love Shian dearly, and would give my very life for my child. You are correct when you say that love means many things. Respect, caring, loyalty, honor, all these and more. But make no mistake, it also takes many other forms. Just because what is demonstrated as love by one person is different than your idea of it, makes it no less viable and legitimate. You simply do not return that love, or not in the same way. <the signal begins to break up, static fills the channel>

Veron Daerth Amarr Blood Meridian	Posted - 2008.08.24 05:50:00 - [27] <the channel clears> My apologies, Pilot, I had to deal with an issue. You mentioned that you are at the brink of the Abyss. Then step back. You can, you know. Oh it is hard. Hard like almost nothing else, because it is so very very addictive. And easy. It is easy to hate, and easy to kill, and easy to howl and rage at the skies, I know that so very well. It feels good when you exact your revenge, when you imagine their screams and, if you manage to get into some hand to hand, to smell their sweat and blood and fear. To see the look on their faces when they die. Yes, it feels good indeed. But you can turn away. You have the strength of will, the mindfulness to know when it is time to STOP. When it is time to turn back from the road you have chosen, when you come to the realization that before you stretches a road of nothing but death and destruction and chaos and torment, not only for those you strike against, but yourself. When you see that, should you continue, all that will be left at the end is a husk, a mere shell of a person, worn like a skin over a beast, an animal. I beseech you, consider that. You were not born at the brink, but you have walked there, certainly, and had some help along the way, true. But where you go, and what you do now, those are YOUR choices. You need not stay in the Abyss, and you need not give up, all you need do is THINK, reason, use your mind. Open yourself to the possibility that there are ways that you can show mercy, ways to stay your hand, and still achieve your goals. Blood and death are not all that awaits you, should you but see it. <Veron Daerth's face grows still, and cold.> Yes, Pilot, I DO know of loss. I know of the rage and despair and anger and emptiness that remains afterward, too. I do not ask for your tears or sorrow, and truthfully, they do little good, the deed being done, so to speak. My brother, sister, father and mother lie dead these many years, and are in a better place. I tell you of them not to elicit sympathy, but to show that you too, can MAKE A CHOICE, as I did. You too, can be free of this weight that would drown you in anguish and sorrow. You can shed the chains of hate and rage, as I did. God grant that you need not walk the path of insanity and death to gain what I learned, to know what I know now. <Veron Daerth smiles a sad smile> You remind me of.. me... a long time ago, Pilot. Hakarris could tell you, I suppose, but I am very different that I once was. The choices we make, dictate the life we lead, Pilot. Remember that. Your time is now, make the choice. You need not be lost. You can be the guiding light, or a true visionary that can affect change, someday, perhaps. But you throw it away so easily. You seek to sacrifice yourself today, and know not even if it will be worth it tomorrow. Do not give up so easily, Pilot. Thats what the slavers want. May God grant you the rest you deserve.

A simple [No Image Available] is written in the middle of the comm. Pilot Daerth. I've listen to your words, and you are truly different from most of the Amarrians I have met, something that gives you much credit. But you are still born and raised in a culture far different than mine, and you are still colored by it, as am I from my background. Master or slave, both are bound by their own chains. The Abyss, if there is such a thing, is a place that I and many others know of. Many Amarrians, Caldarians and Gallente know of it, all of us have walked the path. * The Caldari has fought to break free from the Gallente and they do so know in the war for Caldari Prime. They are perhaps the most recent proof that old grudges die hard and the war for their ancient home is a living proof that walking along the Abyss is dangerous for everyone. The battle is righteous, but still innocents die. It is war. * Gallente has fought countless battles for freedom and their culture. But perhaps they are those amongst us that walk the path less than any other, and I envy them. * The Amarrians, your own people has fought many battles as well. All though most battles has been those of the attacking imperialist, you as well has lost some battles. Especially your humiliating defeat by the mysterious Jovian Empire. But from your losses you have been angry and full of revenge, and many of you, like yourself, have visited what you call the Abyss. But none you can measure the intimate relationship we have with the Abyss and the darkness between the stars. You say I can return from from the abyss as if it's simply a choice of where I put my feet. I WAS indeed born here, you saw to that. For many Minmatar there is no other path than the one we are forced to walk. Walking out from a dark room is impossible if you have no light to guide you, and even harder if someone locks you or your people inside. You KNOW what freedom is, that's why you can return to it. You've been raised outside of the room, you know what too look for. If you are born in darkness, light has no meaning, even if you seek it in your heart. The wrath and anger many Minmatar feel today is the direct result of the treatment they have been given. It doesn't really matter if you beat the slaves or abuse them, what really hurts the mind of a tribe member is to be bound. You have felt wrath, anger and violence as have we. But you cannot understand what it means to NOT have a choice. You've been bound by your own chains, but no others has put the chains around your neck. You claim that everyone has a choice. This is simply not true. In a way, I'm still a slave to the culture you brought me up in, still a slave to the path I walk, from this I will never be free. My parents fought to raise me in freedom, and they died for it. That is why I am where I am today. Someone broke my chains, it's my DUTY to make of it what I can. That's why I don't aim to take care of every freed slave in the galaxy, that's not how it works. Everyone must be strong enough to fight themselves. I can brake the chains of a caged slave, but I cannot teach him to survive in the wild. If they die trying, then so be it. At least they died as free women. I'm not a rebel like my parents, I don't spend every day trying to fight the oppression head on like they did. I grow stronger myself, and fight my own battles. And if I grow strong enough, as my heritage forces me to, others will see and break their bonds them selves. There will be blood, the last Minmatar slave will be free. The question is if we can retain our humanity after the battle ends. And if we don't, I guess we will have to make do in the darkness between the stars. Perhaps we will never see the light, but we will always be free. Pilot Daerth, free the last slave of your household, jettison them into space with some oxygen if you have to. Then you are welcome at my table. (cont..) /Born in chains, raised in freedom.
Jtharra K'thain Minmatar Coriolis Commerce Cluster	Posted - 2008.08.24 22:45:00 - [30] (...cont) Then you will be welcome at my table, you can try again to explain what light is. I've never seen it, so how am I supposed to find my way from the darkness of the Abyss? I cannot say I'm not curious to what your path is, and how I can fight my battles without being consumed along the way. But as long as I am forced to, I will bite. You must cut your bloodied hand from your body before you can reach out to us. It doesn't matter how well you treat your slaves, they are still just slaves. I doubt the rusty hull of my ship and the strong will of my crew will be enough to meet you in a battle of blood in deep space... but if I have a chance to brake the bonds of those at your feet I will. This is of course, assuming you have slaves, for all I know perhaps you don't. Return in your dreams to that little sister of yours, picture her in chains as old as she would be by know, at the feet of a hungry Bloodraider. Then listen to her, and ask her if she wishes that fate on anyone else. She has guided you from the Abyss, perhaps she can guide you just a little bit further, however real she is or not. If she against all odds are free. and if I ever meet her during my battles with the pirates, I will brake her chains and send her on her way. No one deserves that fate, not even an Amarr. But if I meet her, holding the chain of another I will personally load her in a turret and use her as ammo for my next attack. /Born in chains, raised in freedom.
