Your Majesty,
Firstly i would like to personally congratulate you on your ascension to the thrown. I would also like to mention i attended your coronation ceremony. Sitting in my Shiniest of ships buzzing around the outside of the mob in attendance i felt nothing but pride in the display of the lands and teachings that gave me my life today, but also a bit of sadness not for myself but a great man that these lands will soon loose. I was thoroughly impressed by the presence of dignitaries from other nations. Most notably of which Maleatu Shakor. The thought that he would be in attendance would have struck me as absurd less i saw it with my own eyes. To think any Sanmatar would come to any royal event ... well i think almost nobody saw that coming. Nor did i expect the bombing attempt or all the negativity based solely on your heritage. I suppose i shouldn't be so surprised, but my mind is not so narrow to think only certain people where created by God, nor would i think a specific creed is all that matters.
Your words are what took the day in my mind however. Some lines in particular :
* "Today, I step forward to lead the people of Amarr into a new era. An era of prosperity, an era of growth. An era of change, and progress." *
* "A path that takes us on a journey paved with prosperity for loyal of the faith." *
*"To support this growth, our administration will work to make the Imperial economy a powerhouse of activity, with new foreign policy and trade legislation that opens up our markets to the cluster like never before."*
Ordinarily i might push this off as typical rhetoric of someone in power, cheeky to be in their new station. I however am not of the short minded type. I recall past positions and opinions. Yours in particular have made me all the more curious with the Sanmatar's appearance. I wish to bring to light the memory my mind holds World news article 8-20-2013. During the succession trials i believe most to of thought of you as one of the more moderate potentials, a view i did not share; In fact i down right laughed. To think that a woman who cares more about her pockets than her message to be thought of anything other than hungry... well that is quite a joke. Now after this days events I'm at a bit of an impasse with myself. I'm not sure weather you have fooled the Sanmatar in some way, or if you have somehow deceived even yourself. Or maybe Maleatu Shakor is in on this in one way or another himself. In any way it takes place i know whats coming. I mean to say i know some sort of Reclaiming is on your to-do list.
In my letter to Rehniz Zateki and subsequently to Lord Yonis i had outlined that i had a peculiar ride in my life up to this point, even more so now with a culmination of events that has lead to myself becoming a holder. I was born to minmatar parents. I had a more privileged upbringing than most but was still born a slave. I lost my parents in the rebellion at the hands of resentful men. Then i was forced through some horrific adaptations and training to fight on these same peoples behalf. I still hold so much hatred over this i feel as though its poring out of my eyes. Despite this i cant bring myself to hold innocent people responsible. I am not of Amarr ancestry which is probably why i look through the inbred and greedy hegemony, policies, and rhetoric, to the true essence of the faith. It's true that God calls for the faith to be spread, however greedily taking slaves in the name of the faith for your own selfish benefit is not in or of the faith. This is the greatest heresy. Lord Yonis understood this. When jamyl tried to smear his name by granting the Amatar madate under his tutelage. The empress thought she had outdone herself. She thought she would brake open a mask and reveal an aristocrat. Instead she found the truth in piety. A man unbroken by faithless shames.
In some time a great man, one of true spirit and faith will show what it is to have conviction once again. I only hope you can live up to the crown adorned your head. I hope you keep the mask on, that so many see as your face. I hope that Garkeh Khanid, keeps his vows and honor in the same respect; and i want you to know that even though a great leader dies capsuleers live forever.

Well, there is Otto. He came from the other side of the gate.... 
To OP: Given thought =/= is going to do it. Also, I don't think Shakor fell for anything or was decived in any way. He is many things, and a politican among them. He knows how to smile nice for the camera when needed. If anything it would be him perpetuating the decption, likely to get a better feel for the new Emperess and see if he can gain from her a military, economic, or political advantage to make the Minmatar a less favorable target for a future Reclaiming... Or he could have been there for the free food. That's the only reason I turn up to official functions.....

Take note that 'maximum human lifetime' is no longer what it used to be. However, you are right. We are a very recent addition into the interstellar scene.

If this is true, I am calling nonsense on the Republic's economic policies.

You claim to look to the 'true essence' of faith, and yet you have chosen one of the most blasphemous call signs imaginable. I simply will not repeat it.
The entire tone of your letter and in particular your closing statement is quite shocking. A holder you may be, but you are in no position to question the Lord, or Her Holiness on any subject.
I'm confident my words will fall on deaf ears to one who has strayed so far from the Lord. I do however hope you are truly 'ever vigilant' and can someday find your path to God. |

It is hardly blasphemous. As clones, there is the likelihood that all of us are soulless.

It is not inappropriate to be wary of one whose past has been shaped by the pursuit of material goals instead of spiritual ones, and to pray that she will uphold the will of God in her new position. And that is key--he is praying for our empress; he is praying that she will uphold what is right and true. As we all should.
His lordship's concerns are only shocking if they come true. |

From my observation, any man deprived of basic human needs, be it food, water and shelter, will usually stop acting like a person and start acting like an animal. Before they can be educated in any way, the needs of biology have to be met first.

Only through many hardships
Is a man stripped to his very foundations
And in such a state
Devoid of distractions
Is his soul free to soar
And in this
He is closest to God
- Missions 42:5
And indeed, the first duty of a state head is the prosperity of her polity. How can you see to the prosperity of your people if you fail to Reclaim their spirit? Prosperity of the soul must come before prosperity of the body. The people of Amarr are starving. But it's not food or coin that we are hungry for.
I pray that Her Imperial Majesty will see to our real needs. |

Sammi, if the people of Amarr aren't hungry for food or coin, then she's already met your primary needs. I'm sure the head of a noble house cannot arrive at her station without being a conscientious practitioner of the faith.

It seems you only serve to further my point of a blinded empire.You can't shade her words in anything other than greed, so you seek to dismiss me based on my chosen name; the allusion of which seems to far removed to ever be in your reach. I am not questioning the lord as the lords work is never done, I cant smile through my dismay however.

Our illustrious ancestors freed their souls from the evils of the old.
world and created a new one.
The great Amarr Empire was founded to cultivate the spirit of man.
To do so the enemies of the outside had to be defeated and the enemies of the inside controlled.
The Lord gave our Emperor the power to harness the Good and punish the Evil.
Ever since, the Emperor has lived the lives of his subjects and breathed the air of authority."
- The Scriptures, Book I 1:14
I Think this may help some to understand where our great land stands today... The Lord gave our emperor the power she dosn't embody the Lord.
We as Amarr must strive to cleanse the land and cultivate the spirit from enemies outside and within |

Her aim was to try to get him to loose face by turning away from the appointment because they are Amatar lands, as most of the aristocracy would. |

Yonis is of greater fortitude of the faith than she realized.
That is lord's own bizarre fantasies.
Empress Sarum saw a pious and energetic upholder of amarr ideals in Lord Yonis and gave this task to him, because she knew that he would not fail. |

I wonder now if you ever truly have been starving.

Missions 42:5 is not just a clever turn of phrase, it is a fundamental truth about the human body under extreme stress. It is more than an appeal for rich men to simplify their lives, it is a kernel of wisdom as old as hardship itself. "There are no atheists in foxholes," is another phrase that means in the end the same thing. A sort of reflection of that truth cast in troubled waters where the scripture is cast on clear mirrored glass.
In trying to argue that the people of the Empire go hungry, as you often love to imply about the Republic as well, you have forgotten that far more go hungry in your State.
Starvation is not painful. God does find you when everything is taken from you.

Just go to Skarkon and stay in Sahaal for a year. That place is ample demonstration on what destitution can do to a person's spirit.
Everywhere you go it is always the same. Deprived of food, water and shelter for prolonged periods of time, and they will start considering robbing someone else of everything they have a valid way to survive for another week. Happens anywhere that is stricken with poverty and a chronic lack of life-preserving supplies.
