Celebrations can be heard across numerous station brothels and bars throughout New Eden following the latest in plans for occupied systems by the Triglavian Collective. “Praise to our Triangle Overlords” could be heard chanted through many nullsec boarding cities.
A spokesperson for the Collective announced a plethora of Mega-infrastructure projects during a regular public address, but all were quickly pushed out of focus at the mention of the Bahromab stargate within the Niarja system being redirected to the Stain system of LC-1ED to support the Triglavian offensive against Sansha’s Nation. Raids on Triglavian controlled abyssal dreadspace by the Nation have spurred the stargate appropriation. Further details of allied capsuleer participation in future “Sansha quelling” operations were mentioned among the elated cries of the observing crowds.
The Collective, not realizing the gravitas of the announcement, was quickly bombarded with calls of support from numerous coalitions and alliances throughout null security space. Pledges of materials, manpower, structure production capacity, and logistics flooded in overwhelming Collective liaisons in Niarja. Pro-Collective hackers quickly economized on the situation, plastering propaganda posters across as many stargate and station billboards as possible before CONCORD quickly clamped down on the intrusions. Similar posters calling for support of the Collective and their efforts to bring about “The Holy Staingate”. Paper forms and leaflets rapidly started to appear in all manner of places and local governments with authorities struggling to contain the outbreaks.
No timelines have been outlined, but it is certain that such an opportunity to gain further support by the cut-throat capsuleer population in New Eden will not go unexploited by the Triglavian Collective. Critics of the Collective have remained quiet, knowing that voicing concerns would fall on deaf ears, as well as potentially undermining efforts to reduce public support for the collective. EDENCOM was expected to offer a counter response, but was equally shocked as the public at the announcement.
The Amarr Empire was also caught off guard by the announcement as their stargate to Stain was recently put on hold following invasions to their sovereignty and the major disruptions that followed. Rumours whisper out of The Empress’s government of rushed plans to restart the project and capture capsuleer support first.
StainGuy, a vocal, long time advocate for a low security route to the Stain Constellation, regained consciousness in a Mindflood Rehabiliation Clinic in Querious, and commented:
“I can’t believe this is happening! I just can’t even right now!”
