/ INITIATING TRANSMISSION FEED /

Yshiradh, Orassian nation and aliens from the beyond. Broadcasting currently from Libertopia, @union-replicants space. Weather here is lovely with occasional rainfall. A prime time to hit the beach and enjoy the light of the parent sun, since it's predicted to shine bright today, as it is for the Orassian Liberation Front in home space.

This is 'People's News Republic', an independent news agency geared towards unbiased coverage about current events happening in the Orassian space. I'm your hostess, Erhrdra D'Kara, and here are the latest developments.

The liberation forces have made significant advancements in the west of Gaurdis system and have secured ample space and time for the OLF to install a defensive station in the system.

The fight was hard, but the competency of the Liberation Front, and the help lent to them by the aliens not indifferent to our fight for democracy, had pulled them through the struggle. The push is currently moving to Oros and the broken ruins of the homeworld, but the resistance and the presence of the loyalists there is still significant. The potential capture of Orassia is anticipated to improve morale among the fighting forces, and the OLF needs what it can muster to bring an end to one of the only oppressive dictatorships in the Eastern Quadrant.

Among the greatest news today is the complete liberation of the H'Oumukh Region! In their strategic push, and with the aid of many volunteers from other interstellar states, the OLF managed to secure the region and clear it of all presence of loyalists. According to the words of the soldiers, it was "as if the whole comms network of the Matriarchy's forces in H'Oumukh started malfunctioning, which allowed for the offensive to be successful in the first place." It is unknown at the moment who was responsible, but, whoever it may have been, they have just helped to bring the tyranny of the Matriarchy one step closer to its end.

In other news, our news network, with the help of our allies, have reached out to Region of J'Horrim to spread the message of truth. When we heard that they still believe that no civil war is currently happening on their doorstep at all, we were shocked. The propaganda wall of the Matriarchy had certainly worked wonders for them at the time, but not at that moment.

At least some of the citizens in the region got to hear the realities of what was happening, and they would share them with the rest gradually. Our agency certainly received potential points of contact, which we will gladly share with our allies.

We have received word that the OLF is to hold memorials to the fallen soldiers in the capitol city of the region, Atasaŋ. The insurgents have suffered their share of losses they intend not to be forgotten by the fighters. We, the free Orassian people, will keep on pushing against the tyranny of dictatorships, and our promise to never stop fighting will never be broken.

For tonight, this concludes our news coverage. Thank you for listening. This has been 'People's News Republic'.

Truth to the people.

Freedom to the Orassian people.

Peace to the fallen.

Your offer will be considered. If we decide to contact you, we will do so over secure channels.

Curses! The rebels have laid claim on the border system to the north! Our investigation into our own navy has determined the insurgent groups smuggled bomb parts onto ships and in a series of surprise attacks crippled the starbase's defences.

The timeframe where they could've brought on the explosives onboard corresponds with a recent assault attack. We managed to hold their advances barely, while waiting for reinforcements. After the space battle, several civilian transport ships were spotted, claiming to have "suffered collateral damage in the fight" and were cleared to dock for repairs alongside our ships, compromising our forces.

Unconfirmed reports claim that @vakthar-of-song's so called "volunteers" aided the rebels in this disaster. If these are to be believed, then the depth of foreign meddling within our borders goes on far deeper than the initially surmised involvement of @union-replicants' into our broadcasts.

Several bad actors that were involved in this transgression of security were successfully identified and arrested. The Matriarchal Court shall deliberate on their sentence now, and from the evidence we managed to find, their fates look grim. Deservedly so.

The Matriarch issued an edict to counteract the flaws in the security of our space navy. Tight regulations and regular revisions by the Matron Council will be scheduled weekly. Any personnel caught supplying information and cooperating with the hostile actions of the rebels and international actors will be charged with high-degree treason. That is all.

Oh... It seems that the origin of our transmissions has been discovered by our rivals. I suppose it was only a matter of time. It's doubtful the Matriarchy has the technical means to stop our broadcasts from entering into their space, unless they have allies as powerful as we do.

Let us turn on the visual feed. Our studio has changed a little for the upcoming occasion.

Yshiradh, Orassian nation and aliens from the beyond! I'm Erhrdra D'Kara, the hostess of 'People's News Republic'. We're an independent news agency geared towards unbiased coverage about current events happening in the Orassian space.

A significant event for the entire nation happened several weeks ago when the partisans from the 'Orassian Liberation Front' and the 'Insurgent Priesthood Organisation' successfully stormed main military headquarters of Atasaŋ city. All military units of the enemy had been pacified, and the heavy artillery and infantry stored within was put to use by the insurgents.

During the next few weeks, the OLF and the IPO liberated the entire city and approx. 55% of the entire H'Oumukh Region of Prophet's Promise, which is quite unprecedented in the recent history. By all means, the entire nation had witnessed the start of a large-scale civil war.

The Matron Council and the Matriarch had declared a state of emergency and will be mobilizing all military assets to put and end to the fast-growing insurgency movement. But, the OLF/IPO remain optimistic, stating their experience in building robust defenses.

(For the purposes of clarity, all of the natural blockers have been omitted from view.)

The fighting hadn't started just on the capitol world, however. Local insurgent cells on J'Kir's Jewel, the terraforming base of Prophet's Promise, rose up to the occasion and claimed two habitation domes in the eastern hemisphere of the moon. One of them is a civilian-class farming and hydroponics facility and the other is a fortress-class overwatch dome. The revolutionaries quoted the events in H'Oumukh Region as a direct inspiration for their actions.

It appears that a lot had been happening behind the scenes. The 'Orassian Liberation Front' had reportedly struck a deal with the disgruntled administration of the Resource Extraction Sector. The latter was being heavily taxed by the Matriarchy in attempt to hoard minerals and strategic resources for themselves, as they no doubt anticipated the rise of the insurgents.

The Central Habitat Complex of the sector's administration had been retrofitted to serve as the HQ for the Orassian Liberation Front, opening a new space frontier.

Currently, in context of recent events, our correspondents report heavy fighting happening in the northern system of the Orassian space. The insurgents are being hammered by the Matriarchy's assault fleet divisions. The former are resorting to hit-and-run tactics to exhaust the opponent, while slowly striking at the starbase with particle lances.

We anticipate that there will be a lot to cover in the coming weeks, though it's unclear how much we will be able to reveal in order not to compromise the OLF's intelligence departments. What is certain, however, is that this is a pivotal point for the entire nation and the start of our fight for democracy.

For tonight, that is all. This has been 'People's News Republic'.

Truth to the people. Freedom to the oppressed. Remembrance to the fallen.

Good evening, Orassian nation. It's 'People's News Republic' once again, delivering to you only the most relevant and unbiased news on the authoritarianism propagated by the Matrirachy.

Today's news coverage concerns the city of Atasaŋ, known for its significance as a mining region for the Orassian economy, where minerals are extracted and purified. There is a lot to unpack here, so let's dive into it.

The entire city, as are many others on Prophet's Promise, is at a full on riot. Civilian protesters are torching military conscription offices where mandatory service for male citizens was being arranged and training centers for aspiring Sisterhood of the Matriarchy. The whole city is on fire and the Matriarch's cloned enforcers are struggling immensely with the situation.

We have an exclusive live interview with one of the protesters. For the purpose of protecting the identities of the interviewer and the Interviewee, their names and likeness have been concealed. Reporter, you can take the stage now.

/ DIVERTING TO ENCRYPTED FREQUENCY /

[ REPORTER ] : Yshiradh, Mr. ▓▓▓▓ ▓▓▓▓▓. We're glad you could give us some of your time. [ INTERVIEWEE ] : Heard about your agency from my colleagues, but we can't talk about it at work or we'd get arrested. They say it's better than any state news network. [ REPORTER ] : Yes, we do strive for unbiased coverage of important events the current government wouldn't dare to give light to. [ INTERVIEWEE ] : Hold up, I hope I won't get into trouble for this... [ REPORTER ] : Worry not, your face will be concealed in the finished cut. Tell us, please, what has personally spurred you and your peers to protest? [ INTERVIEWEE ] : Damn Matron Council racked up household taxes honest workers in no way can't pay, plus I heard they usin' clones to do their dirty work--them Enforcers recently and ▓▓▓. If that wasn't bad enough, they're keeping them on leash with mind-control or somethin', so the poor sods ain't got no say in what they do or even think... ▓▓▓. (harsh slur) [ REPORTER ] : So, economical woes with the administration of the government, plus personal disagreements were the reason, is that right? No political ones? [ INTERVIEWEE ] : I recently ganged up with buddies on [Popular Psi-Messaging Interface App in Orassian space] in a group, 'Orassian Liberation Front' they called? Anyways, we coordinated our stuff through that psi-net and it's massive, you know. At least a few dozen million people is on it. [ REPORTER ] : So, that's how you managed to get the supplies for incendiary cocktails and received instructions on what to target directly? [ INTERVIEWEE ] : Yeah, we got 'em good! At least none of my relatives gonna get conscripted into any ▓▓▓ the Matriarchy is doing, and if the government repairs those, we just gonna torch 'em again. (Loud sounds of shots are heard on the live feed and cries of people on the streets to flee.) [ INTERVIEWEE ] : ▓▓▓, they're firin' on us! Get down, ▓▓▓ ▓▓▓▓ quick! Cover!

(The interview was cut short by gunfires from the law enforcement.)

/ DIVERTING TO MAIN FREQUENCY /

We're receiving word from our reporters on site that the Matriarchy's Enforcers have opened fire on civilians as a final measure. At least seven people have been killed and twelve in critical condition! The fact that they can even consider such a course of action and actually do it... Despicable.

Our agency will contact all respective divisions within the 'Insurgent Priesthood Organization'--they have the best doctors available who will ensure that the protesters harmed by law enforcement will be protected and kept safe from the Enforcers' paws.

Our last commentary after a tragic incident like this relates again to the city of Atasaŋ. Its mayor, Dhir H'Oumukh, has recently been forced to resign and is now facing a felony sentence of fifteen years after openly criticizing the Matron Council.

His story as a previously popular electoral candidate last year have hit the city's community by storm, and no doubt was the catalyst for open riots. His fate at national court still is uncertain, as he remains in custody of law enforcement.

For tonight, that is all. Our agency urges you to stay vigilant and keep your relatives safe in any way you can. If you believe you are in direct danger from the authorities, contact the OLF, the IPO, or even other interstellar states for asylum, shelter, and means to defend yourselves. Brace for the future's hardships and struggles.

This has been 'People's News Republic'.

Truth to the people. Endless rest to the fallen.

Checking reception... One... Two... Three...

Reception appears to be great. It seems as though our dear people at the Matriarchy tried to trace the origin of our transmission. Luckily, our friends managed to counter their attempts by scrambling our transmission vector to a bunch of unrelated galactic states.

Let's turn on the live feed.

Good afternoon, Orassian nation. Erhrdra D'Kara here on behalf of 'People's News Republic'. Our sacred mission is to bring you unbiased coverage and deep-dives into the authoritarianism and lies propagated by the regular state media.

On today's agenda are the mass protests happening in almost every major city on Prophet's Promise: Gharêph, Shêsyŋ, Atasaŋ, Yellidzõkh, Êshõkh, Yeŋabh, and most definitely the capitol city of Atêraghr.

The Enforcer clones of the Matron Council are rounding up any person they could find even remotely related to the protests into unmarked vehicles with no registration numbers. The abundant CCTV coverage installed since the Matriarch came to power certainly plays into their paws with tracking any dissidents. Where the people are being taken is still unclear.

Underground groups, such as the recently popular 'Orassian Liberation Front' and the 'Insurgent Priesthood Organization' vow to locate the kidnapped civilians and give them freedom they have been deprived. The mood among the people is nothing short of outrage, however all relevant groups understand they must remain composed and ready.

For the purposes of protecting the intelligence services of involved groups, we will publish any recent information within two standard days. We encourage all civilians interested in the safety of themselves and their relatives to do the same and report all relevant information on the Enforcers' movements to the OLF or the IPO.

Stay vigilant and watchful for the next few days, and do not panic. It is what the Matriarchy wants of us: a fearful and submissive flock. Let us not give into fear and false information.

That is all for today. There will be more exclusive coverage coming next, so stay tuned. This has been 'People's News Republic'.

Truth to the people.

May it guide us away from the darkness.

Greetings, Orassian nation. It appears we have stumbled on some attempts to resist our scheduled newscast. Luckily, we have good people and allies working on countermeasures. And, unfortunately, not all of us will hear our message today, as no doubt the Matriarchy would've already shut down all psi-vision networks in highly populated areas to avoid the fiasco they can't tell you about.

But, more on that later. Let us turn on the visual feed.

/ ENABLING CATCH PROTOCOLS FOR VISUAL FEED /

That's much better. Good evening, once again, on 'People's News Republic', an independent news agency whose mission is to bring you unbiased coverage and deep-dives into the authoritarianism and lies propagated by the regular state media. I'm your hostess, Erhrdra D'Kara, also the HEO of the agency.

So, our today's story is regarding the previous transmission and the impact it had on the urban population centres. The nation has heard us loud and clear: and, oh dear, they've taken action.

Caption - Protests in capital city of Atêraghr are in full swing: citizens demand investigation into the Matron Council. Claims of government-sanctioned cloning are ignored.

With the protests underway, it's no secret that cloning in the Orassian space is illegal and is a felony. Our agency's stance on such matters is clear: this practice should be fully legalised and all ethical concerns related to cloning properly addressed by competent experts.

The Matriarchy's record relating to it hasn't been totally clean, however. At first, as shocking as it sounds, the first generations of Orassian clones were forcefully corralled and subsequently murdered by the Matron Council under false pretenses that these Orassians were "less pure". They were still people, and another victims of the Matriarchy's authoritarian enforcement machine.

What is concerning however is that the protesters stressed their woes about the the fact that the current government used cloning in general, rather than the Matriarchy's breaches of sapient rights by suppressing free will of clones.

As a news organisation, we take a stance in support of rights of clones and against any notion that they do not deserve all freedoms and protections that they do. The fact that the current government does not recognise it is deplorable and warrants condemnation.

As a bonus piece of news, local partisans in rural regions of Prophet's Promise and other colonies are currently being armed by private foreign groups. Though, by which I'm not at current liberty to say.

What I can say publicly is the current mood of those who are directly receiving the aid. From what the anonymous partisans themselves told us, "they've been the most helpful people one could have" and "the best buddies to get a drink with". That is a direct quote.

And, for tonight, I believe this is all. More coverage about the history of cloning and legislature of SOUL federation to regulate it is coming this weekend.

This has been 'People's News Republic'. Truth to the people. May it guide us away from the darkness towards the light.

Greetings, Orassian nation. My name is Aŋro J'Bassim, and I will be your news hostess for now. The Central News Agency offered me this position after the previous host went AWOL. Rumour has it she was a conflicting person carrying dangerous beliefs on her back. It was quite rude of her to disappear on the nation's watch in this way. Let us hope the law enforcement is investigating her case, determining where she has gone.

Our news will be short for today. Her Excellency oversaw the construction of the war temple in Yellidzõkh city. No doubt, many warrior-priests were invited to witness such an event in jubilant praise of the Divine Saviour, the War God. Our people flocked to the opening ceremony to be one of the first inside the house of Their divine radiance.

The People's Ascendance Initiative went into effect, as was authorised by the Matriarch. Any person, be they Orassian or of other species, could undergo a procedure to acquire psionic capabilities far quicker than what were done during the era of the former Tribunal. Our society is moving increasingly towards integrating psi-communications into our daily life, and we would not want the rest of our non-psionic citizens be left behind.

In our other news [STATIC] our scientists made a crucial discovery in shielding tech [LONG STATIC] we remain optimistic, however.

Ghaem! Why is it not working properly? Come on, fix it people!

One, two, three... Testing reception. Interference signal stable. Turning on video feed now.

Good evening. Erhrdra D'Kara here, the High Executive Officer of an independent news organisation 'People's News Republic'. I was a previous hostess of the Orassian state news, before I found asylum in another interstellar state. The nature of it I cannot reveal for security reasons and for the safety of my employees.

Our mission is to bring you unbiased news and deep-dives into the authoritarianism propagated by the state media. There will be a lot to unpack in the incoming months.

Starting with the first bombshell: our sources on Prophet's Promise and its colonies confirm that the Matriarch has sent a special enforcer task group to disperse dissidents and silence vocal opponents. Those enforcers were reported to be the same person in appearance and behaviour clad in dark power-armor, suggesting the use of clones. Despite the common consensus on the capitol against cloning, the Matriarch seems to disregard such.

Our anonymous sources have confirmed to be in possession of an enforcer's body, after their brutal assault on their hiding place. Upon autopsy, it was revealed that the clones were heavily modified cybernetically, and their cranium was completely enveloped in circuits designed to suppress free will of the affected person. Such modifications were also used as a transmission relay for direct commands, but the source of those could not be determined.

The ethical implications of such discoveries are appalling. Not only the Matron Council is actively complicit in these highly deplorable methods, but the Matriarch does not seem to mind it either. But, of course, the Matriarchy would not comment on such if they were approached with this question.

For tonight, this is all. More truthful coverage about the individual lives of our citizens under the oppression of the Matriarchy is coming soon.

This has been 'People's News Republic'. Truth to the people. May it guide us away from the darkness.

Hello there friends, this is Unit A0128-28-06-368 speaking. It is regrettable but i must inform you all, Unit X0001-01-01-377 has barricaded himself within his safety fortress and refuses to come tend to this communication channel... Our @union-replicants friends have tried luring them out with promisses of tea and gas to no avail, i fear this situation may endure for quite sometime.

[orassian]

Amidst widespread celebrations of our All-Saints Day, the Matron Council had organised a duelling competition on one of our coliseums honouring the patron saints of Kherhr and Darhrŋa, the twin-protectors. All were surprised to see the Matriarch herself attend the sports. During the event, Her Excellency addressed the people publicly, stating that additional funds shall be redirected to the Department of Defence and Homeland Security. This would include an internal R&D division who are responsible for improving defence capabilities of our deep space turrets.

Such news were accepted positively by an overwhelming margin among the populace, with a minor, but vocal group of critics expressing their disapproval for this decision. According to them, general infrastructure projects in rural areas are being severely neglected. The Matron Council has issued special grants to remote villages to rectify such conditions.

With the previous developments around Garhradh D'Kara, the leader of the so-called 'unionised church', their movement had only shown signs of waning in the recent months. Little to no protests were witnessed in all regions of Prophet's Promise and the colonies. *uncertain cough*

The people can finally breathe a sigh of relief that... *clears throat* our way of life will never be in danger again. If any extremist groups were to come about, they would be dealt with according to the Divine Law. That is all. Praise be the Divine Saviour!

It’s nice for my achievements to be recognised…how are things over there anyway, my floating friends? I do so miss you :)

The Bavian Government doesn't officially name the individual known as The Destroyer of Tyranny in MoE books or exams, however we can confirm the Bavian People did benefit from your questionable actions and the Bavian Government has offered a pardon once again.

This one brings great news from the south, Xav nobles detected and decrypted a Kojjal emergency transmission to their leader. It is as follows.

*click* "Oi Warlord Rokk, boss Zikx here! We's gettin' blastied down here! It would be fun if we could blasty them back but it's all orbital bombardments!" *click* "We gots to leave the snorties and softies behind... We's in full retreat, repeat full retreat, for reals!" *click* "Fallin' back to where we gots the anti-orbitals at. They up and runnin' yet? Didn't think we'd need them, innit? Over!"

"Don'tcha hear that clickin', ya rot-brain?! We's got nosy soft-skins havin' a sniff! Shut yer damn meat hole! Rokk over 'n' out!"

A short time later, a band of Xav hunters took this image in Death Valley. The alien-hive craft and the orbital bombardment have been confirmed to be of the @pactargent operating in the area. Though the Xav Dynasty and Qor Unity are eager to celebrate, they are holding off as they mobilise to assist the Pact drones on the ground and in the air.

For us, the culprit were the space weather disturbances near our former transmission beacon. It's fascinating how we've come to use the same frequency for different reasons.

The Ministry of Communications and Federal Government would like to report due to unforseen events the FRGB's Communications Signal has had to be changed. This has resulted in several communication issues and we erge for calm at this time.

Following up on our recent transmission on this frequency, the Matron Council has deemed it necessary to move away from using the previous transmission beacon entirely.

Due to dangers posed by the chaotic space weather activity to the galactic north of our space, the previous transmission beacon was left to drift away from the gravity well of a barren world towards a nearby star. It served us well in our days and through that same beacon we had met aliens we could never dream about. However, as with all things in life, that chapter has come to an end, and we pay our respects.

We will be broadcasting live the former beacon's trajectory towards the star. All citizens and non-citizens are welcome to attend the future ceremony free of charge. We will count the days until collision.

That is all.

Former beacon's galactic coordinates: here.

A Shift in Communications Frequency

Greetings, denizens of Peritainia,

Due to recent space weather disturbances, our primary communications array has been damaged in a sudden ionic storm. Repair crews are already on their way to address the situation and get the array in operating condition. In the meantime, we will be using this communication frequency on a backup platform for the time being.

Unfortunately, this region of space where the primary comms array was installed has been discovered to be unsafe in the recent astral meteorological report. All civilian transports and cargo have been rerouted. Therefore, using this backup array as a primary one still remains a possibility in the future. However, the ultimate decision to move is still up to the Matron Council and the Matriarch.

We are aware of other empires that are using this frequency, including @pactargent, @phlaalu, @worldsthree, and @vegvasignal. Please, if others are receiving this, make yourself known and open for diplomatic interaction.

Blessings,

Foreign Comms Management Office.
