*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>[[Darkwater Inc]] in the [[Summerland]] system has been declared a hostile military target for its role in abducting [[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]]. The private military firm, led by Colonel [[Ronan Brock]], was secretly hired by the Lords of Restoration to train and equip the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. Darkwater troops also kept the Emperor imprisoned in a concealed bunker for over a year. Once their involvement was revealed by [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]], Darkwater's forces regrouped around the megaship Pearl Mandate. Colonel Brock led an attempt to gain control of Summerland as a defensive measure but was unsuccessful. The mercenaries have now been branded as wanted criminals by the system authorities. The order to strike against Darkwater came directly from Emperor Arissa: "I call upon my loyal servants and all other warriors of honour to wipe out this nest of traitors. We remember the innocent victims of the NMLA by punishing those who enabled them." The Summerland Patron's Party will redeem combat bonds for destroyed Darkwater ships at the starport Henry O'Hare's Hangar. Although the Summerland system is typically [[Permits|permit locked]], the [[Empire]] has arranged a total exemption for independent pilots for a three-week period. To guarantee that Darkwater is thoroughly eliminated, the Empire is offering a range of incentives to pilots. These include awarding the rank of Master in the [[Imperial Navy|Imperial Navy Auxiliary]], [[discounts]] on Imperial ships and weapons in the Summerland system, and [[Imperial Hammer]] railguns for the ten pilots who achieve the most combat bonds.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/620e45f0cdd68425834e4348 GalNet: Empire Declares Reprisals Against Darkwater]</ref> | |||

*[[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] has attended a public ceremony following her year-long abduction by the Lords of Restoration. Her proclamation from Trasken Square, standing before millions of [[Capitol (city)|Capitol's]] citizens and flanked by legions of [[Imperial Guard]], was broadcast across all channels: "To those who protected the [[Empire]] during my enforced absence, I offer my deepest gratitude. My trusted [[Anders Blaine|chancellor]], [[senator]]s and security agencies are to be commended. To those who dared to attack Imperial citizens, who dared to impersonate me and mislead my people…who took the lives of my family. Know this: there will be no place to hide from my wrath. And to all citizens who may fear these uncertain times, I vow that your Emperor will lead you into the glorious future that is ours by right." Subsequent messages from the [[Imperial Palace]] praised [[Affiliated Counter-Terrorism unit|ACT]] and its supporters for their work in freeing Arissa and destroying the [[Neo-Marlinist Liberation Army|NMLA]]. Princess [[Aisling Duval]] was also thanked for her dedication to finding out the truth, although some [[newsfeed]]s have noted that Aisling would hold a strong claim on a vacated throne.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/620cf0800244583b4b417c49 GalNet: Arissa Retakes the Imperial Throne]</ref> | *[[Emperor]] [[Arissa Lavigny-Duval]] has attended a public ceremony following her year-long abduction by the Lords of Restoration.
