Line 1,284:
*Senior Agent Tanya Ramirez, one of the joint leaders of ACT, calls for independent pilots to assist in the search for Captain Niamh Seutonia, who had gone to the Mudhrid system aboard her Anaconda, the Valkyrie, to investigate NMLA activity. The Valkyrie departed Mudhrid on a heading for the Marlinist Colonies on March 24, but failed to arrive at a scheduled rendezvous. Pilots later discover the wreck of the Valkyrie on Trianguli Sector GW-W b1-0 1 A, and learn from recovered logs that the NMLA had apparently lured Captain Seutonia into an ambush.
*Jasmina Halsey returns to Federal politics and joins the Federal Diplomatic Corps as an ambassador to the Alliance. The development is praised by Elijah Beck, head of the Alliance Office of Diplomatic Relations. In related news, the FDC recalls Ambassador Jordan Rochester to be reassigned, as most Federal and Imperial embassies in each other's space have remained closed since November 3306.
*The Federation and Alliance pressure the Empire to do more to eradicate the NMLA. Emperor Arissa Lavigny-Duval instructs Chancellor Anders Blaine present a range of options, and Senator Lorcan Scordato volunteers to visit the Marlinist Colonies on a fact-finding mission. Public opinion in the Empire, more polarised on the issue of Marlinism than ever following the Nine Martyrs, appears to strongly favour a military response over diplomacy.
*The Domestic Counter-Terrorism Act, sponsored by Vice President Jerome Archer, is approved by Federal Congress. The sweeping public surveillance law is classified as emergency legislation and therefore replaces all preexisting laws concerning surveillance of civilians and their communications. Archer touts the law as a way to prevent future terrorist attacks in the Federation, but Shadow President Felicia Winters criticises it as an outrageous violation of civil liberties.
