Prior to | Prior to September 3306, Darkwater Inc was secretly hired by the [[Lords of Restoration]] to provide military training to members of the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army]]. A Darkwater contractor known only as Colonel Brock oversaw the training program and reported to [[Senator]] [[Karl Nerva]]. At some point, Brock demanded to renegotiate the contract's terms when his troops found undercover agents of the [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit]] among the recruits. Darkwater also guarded an important captive for the Lords: [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]]. ACT's Captain [[Saskia Landau]] learned of Darkwater's involvement in the Lords' conspiracy after the [[Omega Grid]] network, a secure communications system used by [[Imperial Intelligence Service|Imperial Intelligence]], the NMLA, and the Lords, was cracked in February 3308. The [[Imperial Guard]] assaulted Summerland on February 9, 3308 and intercepted a Darkwater ship attempting to flee with the Emperor, who was safely rescued and returned to [[Capitol]]. | ||

*[[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] has been found alive after being secretly imprisoned by the private military firm Darkwater Inc. The [[Imperial Herald]] published a special report on recent events: "The absence of the Emperor from public life for over a year has prompted much speculation. The [[Imperial Senate|Senate]] claimed that she was being kept safe from assassination attempts by the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]], and that they remained in contact with her. In truth, she was being held captive by the NMLA's secret benefactors. This group of [[Empire|Imperial]] [[senator]]s referred to themselves as the [[Lords of Restoration]]. They were revealed only after [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]] recruited independent pilots to help decipher the terrorists' [[Omega Grid|dark-comms network]]. [[Anders Blaine|Chancellor Blaine]] immediately ordered the [[Imperial Guard]] into battle against Darkwater soldiers. A ship fleeing from the [[Summerland]] system was intercepted, aboard which was a cryogenic pod containing the Emperor herself. She was swiftly returned to [[Capitol]], and is currently under the care of the [[Imperial Palace]] medical team. The [[Imperial Internal Security Service|IISS]] has launched a security operation based on ACT's information. This reveals that groups within the Senate, Darkwater and [[Imperial Intelligence Service|Imperial Intelligence]] formed a long-running conspiracy to fund and empower the NMLA. Senators [[Alberto Gereon]], [[Karl Nerva]], [[Ursula Torquatus]] and several others have been placed under arrest. ACT has stated that it will provide additional information soon."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/6203a754f628791f254db8d8 GalNet: Arissa Rescued from Year-Long Captivity]</ref> | |||
