You're where the Wild Things are...

An in-character blog set in the universe of EVE Online. These are the private diary entries of Lady Ekaterina Mariya deSilvestris, a minor Amarrian Noble and Capsuleer. Other existing characters within EVE will be referred to throughout, though any opinions and views expressed are those of this character. These entries may touch on or directly address mature themes such as violence, sexuality, race and ethnicity, and mental health. As noted, any views are those of the character.

Before we begin, I feel it important to say a few words on the subject of mental health. Ekaterina, or Ekat as many call her, is something of a troubled soul. This aspect of her character is a personal choice I have made, for very personal reasons. Although EVE is a game in which the players can immerse themselves to a greater or lesser degree as they wish, mental health is a very real issue for many people. Those two simple words cover a myriad different issues and concerns that affect people directly or indirectly every day all, over the world.

If you find yourself affected by any issues touched upon in these posts, or if you face your own troubles, please know that there are people out there you can turn to; doctors, friends, family - there is ALWAYS someone. If you are an EVE player, then Broadcast 4 Reps chat is available, staffed by wonderfully kind and good-hearted volunteers. If you know of someone who has mental health issues, then please just let them know you are there. It doesn't have to be anything big, just a smile, a cup of tea, a quick phone call about last night's game - just a little thing to show they aren't forgotten.

You Never Fly Alone.

Initiate Amar is quite the inspiration!  Ambushed by four enemy frigates whilst on a solo patrol - he destroyed all four, and even caught one of the capsules too!  With Praetorians like this, Her Imperial Majesty's subjects can sleep peacefully, knowing they are safe.

Unfortunately, on a more disturbing note is the fact those who claim to be our allies and protectors of the Empire, are anything but.  Captain Daphiti is still hunting that worthless traitor who made an unprovoked attack on Lieutenant Lioncourt a few days ago.   Completely unacceptable, horrific even!  To know that we must be so vigilant against enemies within as well as without is quite a terrible burden.  I have no doubt at all that those are Faithful, like all who serve in PIE and LUMEN, will weather whatever storm is coming, and shall pass any test sent by God or by Her.  We will overcome, we will be Victorious, and then we shall usher in a new Golden Age of Amarr!
