(this is at a previous poster in this thread)-> I'm pretty sure, that as a capsuleer pilot, I could shoot one of the lift guards out of the blue on my way from my ship to my Corporation's private offices/lodgings (you know, the the guards that are meant to keep non pod pilots from getting up there), and say something completely false such as "he made sexual advances on me, and I felt threatened." I sincerely doubt there would be a serious investigation in the matter, and unless I was in Amarr, I'd probably just have to pay some kind of fine (what's a few million isk though? A new ship, a clone? you make me laugh impovershed serf working for 5isk/hour). So, yeah, the whole being able to kill tens of thousands with a single thought, or spare just as many with just as little . . . makes us . . . above? the "law." If I was in a more "lawless" portion of space (read no concord or well fitted navy to tell me that I don't get to do what I want) and I was forced to take the clone express back from a bar, you can bet your keester, that thantos, and grandma's life savings I'm going back and blowing up the whole colony in retaliation. They will know Wrath and Righteousness incarnate from my Holy Amarrian Lasers.
I agree that the picture was deeply disturbing. The whole killing people I can see, and have a connection with (even if it was only to see with my own eyes the person was alive and infact, human) is disturbing, much more so, than say pushing a little red button that will kill a notional 10 million (I'm sure it'd be much different for the "notional" 10 million people on the receiving end of that red button). I needed an explaination, and the story did a superb job.
GREAT WORK ABRAXAS. Would you please send me the ip address, and login information to the secure Eve network where you have the rest of the story hidden? It'll save me alot of money and time, over flying to iceland, and trying to locate the archive manually (I'm very bad at reading binary, or hex for that matter).
I particularly like how the non descript, yet well dressed man has a rutheless undertone to him. After the Atira figured out the ploy aimed at getting her attention, it kind of changes the game a bit . . . that poor bastard inspector did die, so this man is obviously willing to sacrifice anyone and everyone (except himself of course) for whatever his goals are.
I DEMAND to know more aobut "Shoeless Joe," the inspector who was so thoughtlessly killed by his employers (I bet he thought he was working for a legitimate company or some such, like ORE or CreoDon). You said yourself, that if enough people demand, you'll deliver.
