The beginning of a beautiful friendship

Art by Camosaurus.

ARTEMIS, ESC - Gaijin, the leader of Edax Rerum, an alliance with some really bad reputation, seems to have finally acquired himself a friend. As expected, it happened by accident (all previous deliberate attempts failed miserably) when he poked a Spectre in Edvea. Spectres are not exceedingly resistant to incoming fire and this particular one proved to be no exception.

It is yet uncertain what Gaijin's goal was, but the result was loud: the public channels were filled with all-caps transmissions by the victim: a young pilot named Acturius. It seems that he did not prefer the prospect of quietly going down: he started sending angry messages to Gaijin, insulting him, his mother, and his aunt's three-legged dog (another unfortunate attempt at making friends). Not only that, he also queued a bounty of 1 million credits on Gaijin's head, which became active today, and spreading the word on all the channels. 
Let's see if anyone finds the reward enough to avenge Acturius!

This kind of tenacity is unique to such young pilots, yet admirable. 
Either way, a welcome is in order to this dark and unforgiving universe. Acturius, may your future be bright!
