*A private investigator has uncovered some background to the derelict megaship that recently arrived in this system. Little is known about the [[Adamastor]], which returned on autopilot after two hundred years with no sign of its crew. But an experienced detective has come out of retirement to tackle this mystery. Local resident [[Benjamin Chester]], who was a founding member of the renowned Wallglass Investigations Agency, told [[Journalism|journalists]]: "I convinced the [[Alliance Salvage Guild]] to pass on some serial numbers that they discovered inside the Adamastor. Then I started scouring databases, interviewing sources and, well, doing my old job. The megaship was owned by a corporation called [[Azimuth Biochemicals]]. This was taken over by a similar company called [[Pharmasapien]], but both were liquidated long ago. No mission records exist, but service crew reports mention that the Adamastor's passengers included scientists, engineers and some kind of military. Eventually I unearthed a flight plan, logged in October 3111. It plotted a course toward [[Barnard's Loop]] with fuel for approximately 370 light years, and was scheduled to pass by the HIP 39748 and HIP 33386 systems. I'm way too old to head out there myself, but l hope someone can use this info, and help satisfy my curiosity about what happened all those years ago."<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/jkeowd/secrets_of_the_adamastor_chukchan_local_news/ r/EliteDangerous: Secrets of the Adamastor (Chukchan local news article)]</ref> | *A private investigator has uncovered some background to the derelict megaship that recently arrived in this system.

*President [[Gibson Kincaid]] has been removed from office after a majority vote in the [[Alliance Assembly]], following charges of treason, murder and corruption. The date of his trial is expected to be confirmed soon. [[Alliance Interpol]] confirmed that Kincaid was detained while attempting to flee his personal estate on [[Zaonce]]. A firefight broke out between Interpol agents and emissaries from the [[President of the Alliance|Office of the Alliance President]], acting as Kincaid's personal bodyguards. Several fatalities were later confirmed. A number of influential corporate and political figures who supported Kincaid's conspiracy to gain executive control of the [[Alliance]] have also been arrested, including a senior director at the [[Bank of Zaonce]]. Prosecutions are expected to rely heavily on the recent testimony of Admiral [[Frederick Yamamoto]] and a detailed report provided by the Wallglass Investigations Agency. Tashmira Silva, who privately commissioned the report, told the media: "I am satisfied that Kincaid will at last face justice for his crimes, including my sister's murder. [[Fazia Silva|Fazia]] championed fairness, and succeeded as an entrepreneur by believing in others, she would be pleased to know that the Alliance has been purged of such a corrupt presence."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5d0239210af2d9467f36c791 GalNet: President Kincaid Impeached]</ref> | *President [[Gibson Kincaid]] has been removed from office after a majority vote in the [[Alliance Assembly]], following charges of treason, murder and corruption.

*Admiral [[Frederick Yamamoto]], head of the [[Alliance]] fleet in [[Zaonce]], has been charged with the assassination of former presidential candidate [[Fazia Silva]]. The shocking statement was delivered by Tashmira Silva, who became CEO of Silva Holdings Inc after her sister's death: "When the inquiry into Fazia's murder closed, I hired the Wallglass Investigations Agency at great expense to uncover the truth. They identified that a professional assassin with a background in the [[Alliance Defence Force]] was responsible. Unravelling a complex trail of financial evidence and encrypted communications led directly to Admiral Yamamoto. He personally arranged to have Fazia killed during the presidential election campaign, presumably to remove her political threat to his friend [[Gibson Kincaid]]." [[Interpol|Alliance Interpol]] recently verified the Wallglass report and has now detained Yamamoto pending trial. The Zaonce fleet has been placed under the joint command of the [[Council of Admirals]]. There has been no comment from President Kincaid.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5cefbc7ac12a58648955e8f2 GalNet: Admiral Yamamoto Arrested for Murder]</ref> | *Admiral [[Frederick Yamamoto]], head of the [[Alliance]] fleet in [[Zaonce]], has been charged with the assassination of former presidential candidate [[Fazia Silva]].

*It has been revealed that Lady Talitha Ambrose's 300 billion credit fortune vanished as a result of her participation in a powerful gambling ring. Confirmation came when Baroness Oksana Ambrose shared a report from the Wallglass Investigations Agency: "Multiple sources verify that Lady Talitha has been a member of Jokers' Deck for years. At the group's most recent event, she bet the entire Ambrose Foundation during an epic game of high-stakes deadlock poker, and eventually lost. Lady Talitha was apparently devastated, fleeing the venue soon after. Some attendees believe that the game was rigged by one or more other players, who aimed to exploit Lady Talitha's well-known gambling addiction. The organisers of Jokers' Deck remain anonymous and untraceable, so retrieving the family’s assets is unlikely." An Ambrose Foundation spokesperson later stated that Baroness Oksana has officially revoked Lady Talitha's title, vowing never to speak to her daughter again.<ref>[https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/galnet/article/heiresss-fortune-lost-gambling/ GalNet: Heiress's Fortune Lost to Gambling]</ref> | *It has been revealed that Lady Talitha Ambrose's 300 billion credit fortune vanished as a result of her participation in a powerful gambling ring.
