La Terre: Puritism Now a Religion
Posted By: Joker Article: MAY08-3 Reported To: INN Reported On: La Terre Reported At: Mon May 12 19:29:12 3008 Celebrations broke out in New Paris today after the La Terre senate voted in favor of recognizing Puritism as an official religion. Such a status makes the group exempt from taxes and gives them special priviledges within the small world.A rather secretive organization, the Purists -- which have grown in number since the Birthright War -- refuse to disclose details about their religious practices. Rumors about ideals have often seeped out to the media, but none have been confirmed.The festivities lasted a few hours and were attended even by the religion's main figure, High Absolver Robertson. Regarding this decision, he had few words to share: "Blessed are we who seek purity. We are thankful to the All-Source, and the La Terre government, for making it easier to carry out our great work."
Perseverance System Now Z-23
Posted By: Joker Article: MAY08-4 Reported To: INN Reported On: Ungstir Reported At: Mon May 12 19:29:50 3008 The Perseverance system now falls under the Z-23 classification, according to the charts used by Lockstone, Smith & Thayer -- an independent firm devoted to the study of demographics and hazards in various locations of the universe."Essentially, this means it's a pretty dangerous place," John Thayer, senior member of the board explains. "The lack of scanning capabilities, the fact that it has become a known hive for criminal activity and the number of incidents that have been reported since the beginning of the year all point towards this." According to the system used by the firm, a Z-23 system falls merely five points beneath a ZZ-O zone -- the most dangerous specification in a chart that boasts more than a hundred levels. "We strongly advise against travel there."Regardless of these claims, Minerali Co. continues their mining work in the area, giving employment to hundreds of Ungstiri who have lost their home after the Phyrrian assault. Furthermore, a spokesman for the HenchCorp subsidiary assures there are attempts underway to one day create special colonies so that the proud people who once lived in Perseverance can return.Recent studies show that the misplaced Ungstiri have taken to living in small groups in various planets, mostly keeping to themselves.
