Philosophy: An Acolyte's Musings on Life. - Rendvir Arvanis.

#1
This file would be public to the entire House Horuset powerbase:

Once opening the file one would instantly be greeted with an image of a jungle canopy, an image taken from above.

"Ask yourself, what do you see? I do not know your answer, but I know the word that would come to the mind of many... of the foolish. They would see a peaceful forest. And this is why they are wrong, for peace is a lie. This overview is an illusion of peace, an illusion that the Jedi have embraced. This illusion allows the weak to sleep at night, believing they are safe."
"I will tell you what I see, I see life. When we look closer... we can see life for what it really is."
As the user scrolls they would be greeted by another image, the same forest but an image looking at it from under the canopy.

"Here we can see what life really is, a closer look tells us that there is only passion here. How can plantlife show passion, you may ask? It is the passion we all possess, a desire and innate refusal to die. This passion, is survival instinct. Here you see the strong, the trees who's trunks grow tall, so that they absorb the light while those below starve. Their roots growing deep and wide, so that they get the water and nutrients, leaving others for scraps."
"Then, you can see the smart. The vines which use the trees, grow around them and leech off their life, strangling it out of them and growing onto their next prey. Then... you see the meek and insignificant, the small plants which are barely noticed. They may have survived... but they never thrived."
"Though, how did these specimens become the apex life-forms that they are? The same method which any apex predator went through... they evolved. Through struggle, passion, and time they became more than what they once were. How did the other life-forms become so menial? They fell for the illusion, they allowed themselves to become content. They stagnated, and now they are disgusting, and hardly worth notation."
The next image displayed would be some propaganda artwork, of two Sith fighting off many Jedi.

"This embracing of passion, this contempt for stagnation, is what has made the Sith strong. All successful Sith strive for evolution, whether they know it or not. And those who do not embrace this harsh truth... they fail. Be it in their acolyte trials, or later in life. Someone stronger will smell their weakness and prey upon them."
"In order to survive, constant evolution must be paramount. Once one falls to stagnation, they embrace an eventual doom."
"Peace is a lie, there is only passion."

Ongoing Crisis
War in the Northern Territories


The Balance of Power in the Northern Territories!

"The Northern Territories shift under the weight of changing times. With the passage of the ICOT, internal strife amongst Imperial Forces in the North has lessened - though never abated. Although the momentum of the Republic has not yet been met entirely, fortification efforts and victorious naval campaigns have evened the footing at least slightly. Eyes align on systems such as Vykos, Nam'ta and Orsus to see how this proceeds.."



((OOC: The Balance of Power system has begun! Missions that relate to grand changes in the Northern Territories will have an impact on the balance of power shown above, with the end result being that the balance of power's state at the start of the next war arc will determine how strong the Republic will be in the area. The balance of power can be pushing in our favour with bigger scale events aimed at taking the Republic down or fortifying ourselves in the North. This can be achieved through Operations, Adventures and Guild Events. The blue represents the Republic, and the Empire is red! This is organised by the Guild Team, so please direct OOC questions to them.))
