My guess. It's a beginning when looking backwards, for now it's just normal everyday news.

Way I see this Heth needs to drop down to KK CEO. And the Amarr really need to clean house and after this one, no more changes in the Imperial Throne. Maybe the Amarr can fight about the Chamberlain next?

  Different thread.

[Sepherim]

Oh yes, there was a lot of outcry against the Empress (old-Seph for example considered her an usurper for not following the proper channels to reach the Throne), but with time, the Empire is the Empress, so you need to accept it and follow/obey. Like it happened during the times of the Mad Emperor, it's not the place of those without certain powers to judge those above their station. You may like her or not, but you should certainly not speak against her, or else the MIO might pay a visit in the night...

Its also that since TEA decided to drop her in our laps, the rest of CCP has done a fairly decent job of handling her - instead of playing up the psychic mind-possessed Jamyl, we've been mostly shown a politically astute and tactically-minded Empress. The more mindboggling aspects have been all but ignored, while her capabilities as a normal leader and politician in the Empire's labyrinthine political state have been explored more heavily. I deeply approve of this kind of "making the best of a bad situation".

It also may be a normal news that wont lead to nothing.

Don't be naive, the age when we could get news-posts that was just that, and did not build up to something bigger, ended long ago.

Unless ofc this IS just a news-post, and there is nothing more to it.

I would love the return of a constant trickle of some news every now and then and not all of it being connected to some bigger issue, for obvious reasons, but I don't think this is it.

We will see though.

[Sakura Nihil]

I'll see your fascist state dictator and raise you our zombie drug-addled mind controlled by an ai telepathic with superhuman strength empress any day of the week.

She.

Is.

The.

Worst.

No debate.

As someone who hasn't read any of the books, giving a spoilered TLDR would be very much appreciated on this.  Heth is still probably far worse, barring said TLDR.

[Nicoletta Mithra]

I wholly agree with Esna's stance on the Empress thingy. I just ignore what one ought to ignore about it - and CCP thankfully makes this quite easy.

[Sepherim]

I actually believe The Broker actually manages to be worse than the Empress.

[Silver Night]

Yes, because he was awesome before, and they ruined him. Getting a little off topic, though.

Has any more info come out, or just the one item so far?

[Korsavius]

Oooo, education debate always produces some interesting stuff. I will be watching this with closely

Don't forget the Enheduanni. Never forget the Enheduanni.

Or whatever the hell it is spelled.

Please don't be insulting, the Eldar are awesome in their settings, the whatwastheirnamesagain were a horribly bad plot-point pulled out of the ass of a mediocre writer.

Anyhow... I am somewhat interested in seeing where this goes myself. While I'm about to sever my current link to Amarr RP I still like the faction OOC and want to know how this goes.

[Merdaneth]

People, just don't read the books. They give you OOC information your character wouldn't have access too, but (apparently) are still influencing the way you play your character....

[Jev North]

I'm deeply blessed in that I found TonyG's writing style so grating I never made it more than a few chapters into each book. Avoiding the executive summaries floating around has proven more difficult -- but it helps.
