An Apology
((OOC))
Ok so I would like to start the year by saying sorry for my silence over the last 2 months, work plus exam preparation both took up a large amount of my time and completely ruined my appetite for writing. A second apology to all those who I promised a special post in the new year it's not ready yet I had it planned I wrote 800 words but it's just not there yet it also was a victim of my lack of appetite.
Now I would like to say thanks to those who have been reading over last year you are the ones who make it worthwhile and it's also always great to hear from you.
Also as its new year I will make a resolution to post a lot more this year though I might slip a little OOC in as well as the RP but we shall see.
As well and I'm not quite sure how this works in a blog but I would like to do some shout outs for the year it's a pretty long list so bear with me.
-Well first to all my amazing Corp mates at the ILF who put up with me and my habits.
-Second to Nuke Cave for all the excellent fights
-Milo Camen for teaching me the finer points of scouting
-To my CEO Sakaane Eionell for not kicking me :p
-To Tryaz and co for some excellent PvP and his Chronicle recordings
-To All the Staff at the Declarations of War Broadcast
-Aedre Lafisques for being a faction war pilot but not a pirate
-Jandice Ymladris for being a great reporter
-James Syagrius for always providing someone to shout at in OOC and IC channels
-Djimbo Pakkat for hauling my stuff
Ok I'm sure I've forgotten people but basically if I have had fun with you this year cheers qqqaand thanks.
More posts incoming, till then fly safe

Blast To The Past
Something I found and I thought I share.
Through the scope I watched him as he moved from house to house, he would knock at each door if there was an answer he would spend approximately two minutes chatting get out an envelope, pass it to them, smile and nod his head politely then move to the next house, If there was no answer he would crouch and retrieve an envelope and slip it under the door.
When he had been to all the house's in the square he began the walk up the lane towards the place where he had parked his MTAC. At two meters from the machine he did as he had done in the previous five settlements, stopped and lit a cigarette. I breathed out as his body slumped to the ground, two weeks that were not coming back but it had been worth it.
Gurden Edearis had been a Serpentis enforcer for around eight years he was untouchable, or so it had been though. I picked my way through the rocks down the slope and onto the road leading towards the town. My rifle, already dismantled, now sat in the briefcase which I was holding firmly in my left hand, I strode into town looking dead ahead at Gurden's MTAC.
The town's people parted as I came towards the body, rolling up his left sleeve I found what I was expecting, the Serpent engraved into his arm. I then removed my data pad from my breast pocket and attached the facial scanner.
[GURDEN EDEARIS
AGE: 28
POB: Unknown
RACE: Gallente
ASSOCIATED GROUPS: Serpentis Corporation
CRIMES: Money Laundering, Drug manufacture & distribution, racketeering, manslaughter, tax fraud and murder.]
This is an extract from my father's journal of his younger years, at the time he was writing this he was still in university, so it has been an eye opening experience for me to read and has definitely given me some questions that I can ask him when I next visit Syndicate.

Killing A Mechanical Tortoise
The whole feel of the pod was different I felt weaker slower and restrained like each thought that normally ran so smoothly from mind to ship was clogged somehow the messages got through yes but not so neatly or for that matter so effortlessly. Sansha has arrived.
So I have been silent of late, this has not been to a lack of activity simply a lack of time to write about it. My attacks on pirates both capsuleer and non, have been regular and with results as ever changing as a stormy sea, my market orders both buying and selling continue to be fruitful, sadly my fitted ships have not done so well.
Planet side operations continue to be a success with many orders for hybrid cattle coming in every week. The Masseri State is really on the map, another trader has recently moved into the area which means competition should bring more business to the area and more trade opportunities seem to be appearing in Eugales less than a stone's throw away.
But now Sansha has arrived and his hoards as before threaten all who dwell in our system. I acted fast to begin with, first I looked at Intel and then I tested my metal against the forces of evil myself eventually I took out six frigates and two battleships in three separate battles. But it seems Sansha learns fast and soon singular groups containing just frigates and battleships became a rarity and the cruisers proved more then a match for me. After these first attempts I later joined up with my Corp mates and began a second round of assaults this time we took out approximately ten Frigates and one cruiser. It's slow and steady but we seem to be getting somewhere.
Now I fear for those planet side, I myself have been in station since the incursion began but I worry for my friends and relatives. I have already started looking into producing aid packages as well as repopulation plans for some of the smaller colonies in the Viriette constellation. I have every confidence in the Intaki military in combination with Modus Legion to put up a good fight if Sansha does put feet on the ground but I do wonder if there is more I can do.
