*Four thousand Imperial slaves have been left stranded on [[Eotienses A 3]] after being forcibly freed by emancipation group [[Autonomy]]. Independent [[Journalism|journalist]] Gwendolyn Nash reported for Vox Galactica: "Since being set free outside [[Port Isabelle]], the former slaves have been without food, shelter or income. Many complain that they cannot return home without completing their indentured servitude to pay off debts or fulfil contracts. In desperation, thousands of newly homeless have poured into the city. Many public buildings, such as the Imperial Museum of Culture, have been turned into makeshift camps, with large numbers also begging on the streets. Police and support services are struggling to cope with the unexpected influx of immigrants. Already there have been several clashes between citizens and the emancipated, and such incidents are likely to escalate until a solution is found."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5d0a5febeb19b50d081252b6 GalNet: Imperial Slaves Stranded]</ref>

* A local media report stated: “This morning, visitors found the entire New Dawn Collection exhibit empty, with every single one of the Candromir statues gone. Painted onto the wall was a graphic of a winking cat. The museum cannot explain how its security systems were so completely circumvented.”<ref name=":0" />
* Captain Madoc Evander of the [[Imperial Internal Security Service]] commented: “We are performing forensic analyses and interviewing all staff and visitors. As yet, we cannot confirm any connection between this theft and one that occurred three months ago in the [[Alioth]] system, despite the identical ‘winking cat’ motif. We will make every effort to capture this criminal and recover these precious cultural artefacts.”<ref name=":0" />
