*The [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit]] is actively investigating [[Imperial Intelligence Service|Imperial Intelligence]], despite the [[Imperial Senate|Senate]] ordering it to cease operations. Inspector [[Mara Klatt]], one of ACT's co-leaders, told the media: "We are convinced that elements within Imperial Intelligence provided support to the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. Our view is that a modified version of the [[Omega Grid]] software was supplied to the terrorists, allowing them to build their own dark-comms network. Thanks to Captain Saskia Landau's inside knowledge, we are learning how to detect a unique identifier associated with the network employed by the NMLA. Our actions may have political repercussions, but this taskforce is dedicated to finding and destroying the NMLA. We must follow the trail wherever it leads." Civil and military leaders in the [[Empire]] have reacted with outrage, including [[Senator]] [[Zemina Torval]]: "Are we expected to risk our citizens' lives by letting our security services be compromised? How might the [[Alliance]] or [[Federation]] respond if we attempted to hack into [[Alliance Interpol|Interpol]] or the [[Federal Intelligence Agency|FIA]]?" However, a plea for cooperation was made by Princess [[Aisling Duval]]: "If nefarious groups within our Empire have helped the NMLA, we must uncover the truth. I firmly believe that the [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval|Emperor]] herself remains in danger, and ACT might help us to learn her fate."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61f92e4dfcc3f73bc25b59dc GalNet: ACT Defies Imperial Decree]</ref>

*Princess [[Aisling Duval]] has discussed growing concerns over [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]]'s lack of public engagements in recent months. In an interview with The [[Imperial Herald]], she said: "[[Chancellor]] [[Anders Blaine|Blaine]] assures us that the Emperor has been kept in seclusion for nearly a year to protect her from the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. But why has this prevented the [[Empire]]'s ruler from engaging with her citizens? After all, [[Hadrian Augustus Duval|Hadrian Duval]] and his family were placed under the same [[Imperial Senate|senatorial]] protection without disappearing altogether. We know that the Emperor has communicated with the Senate on various matters during this time. Government channels are generally trusted thanks to [[Imperial Intelligence Service|Imperial Intelligence's]] verification protocols. But Captain Landau's recent testimony, which links Imperial Intelligence to the NMLA, has me concerned. How can I be sure that a breach to our most secure networks wasn't responsible for the location and murder of my father, [[Harold Duval|Prince Harold]]? Until Arissa appears in person, it is irresponsible to assume her safety is guaranteed. I will be most relieved to have my fears proved wrong." Chancellor Anders Blaine responded: "With the greatest respect to Princess Duval, I have never had cause to believe that Her Majesty the Emperor is in any danger from her own security agencies. Her imminent return to public life should alleviate such concerns."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61e990e8f149e92c535802d2 GalNet: The Missing Emperor?]</ref>
