*[[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]] has released details about a plan by the [[Lords of Restoration]] to frame [[Hadrian Augustus Duval]] as the leader of the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. The information was extracted from the NMLA's [[Omega Grid]] network and published by Captain Saskia Landau: "It was [[Senator]] [[Ursula Torquatus]] who devised a scheme to undermine the [[Imperial Family]] and turn citizens against them by 'exposing' a Duval as the NMLA mastermind. Hadrian Duval was seen as the logical choice since many viewed him as an extremist through his prior association with [[Nova Paresa|Nova Imperium]], though [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] officially pardoned him in 3306. The Lords of Restoration used a virtual doppelganger of the Emperor, indistinguishable from authentic transmissions, to convince the [[Imperial Senate|Senate]] that she was communicating from a safe location. A similar doppelganger was developed to replicate Hadrian and was used to send orders to NMLA allies such as the [[Arastin Delacroix|Landgrave of Mudhrid]]. This is how they planted evidence, discovered in April 3307, that Hadrian had converted to Neo-Marlinism and was determined to wipe out all other Duvals. Yet, despite triggering an unsuccessful [[Federation|Federal]] attack in the [[Paresa]] system, the accusation was not verified or widely believed. Months later, the Lords of Restoration tried to kill Hadrian and [[Astrid Minerva-Duval|Lady Astrid]] before their son [[Hector Mordanticus Duval|Hector]] could be born, fearing the continuation of the Duval dynasty. But other senators moved the family to a secure location, beyond the reach of their agents." Hadrian Duval has publicly thanked ACT for uncovering this information and officially absolving him of all suspicion in this matter.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/62138ad4d83a154b750c5986 GalNet: Further Omega Grid Secrets Revealed]</ref>

*The [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit]] has unveiled a secret cabal of [[Empire|Imperial]] [[senator]]s who masterminded the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA's]] terrorist activity. The information was obtained after ACT successfully penetrated the NMLA's [[Omega Grid|dark-comms network]]. Captain Saskia Landau provided this summary to the media: "Senators [[Alberto Gereon|Gereon]], [[Jourdain]], [[Karl Nerva|Nerva]], [[Lorcan Scordato|Scordato]] and [[Ursula Torquatus|Torquatus]] were at the heart of a powerful conspiracy to permanently remove the position of [[Emperor]]. They called themselves the [[Lords of Restoration]], based on their aim to restore executive power to the [[Imperial Senate|Senate]]. The NMLA became their terroristic agents, weaponised to assassinate the [[Imperial Family|Duvals]] and other obstacles. Its members were militarised at [[Darkwater Inc|Darkwater]] training camps and provided with sophisticated equipment by corrupt [[Imperial Intelligence Service|Imperial Intelligence]] agents. But the Lords could never fully control the terrorist figurehead [[John Tyburn|Theta Seven]], whose attacks against non-Imperial starports were not part of their original plan. [[Marlin Duval|Marlinism]] was also exploited as a political lever. The hope was that, compared to this democratic ideology, citizens would view a senator-led Empire as a moderate compromise once the Imperial Family was gone. While this led to the establishment of the [[Marlinist Colonies]], the Lords' later attempts to influence those systems via puppet politicians did not succeed. Following the assassinations of [[Harold Duval|Prince Harold]] and other Duvals, the Lords abducted Emperor [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] in January 3307. She was kidnapped en route to a secure location, with Senator Nerva falsifying confirmation of her safe arrival. This allowed the Lords to engineer communications with the Senate via a virtual doppelganger, which were accepted as genuine since they were verified by Imperial Intelligence agents." ACT is working closely with Imperial security agencies to identify all those who collaborated with the Lords of Restoration.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/620a5094eb024118526134da GalNet: ACT Exposes the Lords of Restoration]</ref>
