Ye Chronicles of Evonya

Agent Sasha Nemtsov has a special treat for all the Code-compliant people of highsec--and all the rebel miners who read MinerBumping.


As Sasha describes it, Ye Chronicles of Evonya is a "MediEVEal Farce". Unlike all those depressing YouTube videos out there, Ye Chronicles of Evonya is a fantastical journey filled with wonders and delights.


Treasures await those with a discerning eye. Though Sasha's story may be farcical, if one looks very closely, there are actually some interesting parallels between the fictional realm of Evonya and the world of EVE Online. And there are some valuable lessons to be drawn from those parallels.


BONUS!

In keeping with the outlandishness of Sasha's video, we're doing today's post upside down.


I have a feeling Agent Hero Of HiSec would feel right at home in Evonya.

But the shareholder-related honours today go to Black Pedro, whose purchase of 1,000 additional shares sent us just past the 1,172 billion isk mark and earned him a Supreme Protector's Tip of the Hat™.

Onward, gallant Knights of the Code!

    3. The sad part is that it is random anon ag whiners that are coming up with all of this anti-Semitic content from their twisted minds. You can make your fail-troll claims any time you want and pretend to find salt, but deep down you know that it is you who is truly messed up in the head.

  2. Good evening, New Eden. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of everyday routine, the security of the familiar, the tranquility of repetition, the totality of blogs. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, where upon important events of the past, usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, are celebrated with a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this November the 5th, a day that is sadly no longer remembered, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. There are, of course, those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with moderator accounts will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well, certainly, there are those who are more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable. But again, truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, ganking. They were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, James 315. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. This night, I seek to end that silence. This night, I corrupt the MB to remind this community of what it has forgotten. A great citizen wished to embed the fifth of November forever in our memory. His hope was to remind the world that fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words; they are perspectives. So if you've seen nothing, if the crimes of this Code remain unknown to you, then I would suggest that you allow the fifth of November to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me, inside the gates of High Sec, and together we shall give them a fifth of November that shall never, ever be forgot.

  3. How CODE acts:

    Government agencies at all levels aimed to exclude Jews from the economic sphere of Germany by preventing them from earning a living. Jews were required to register their domestic and foreign property and assets, a prelude to the gradual expropriation of their material wealth by the state. Likewise, the German authorities intended to "Aryanize" all Jewish businesses, a process involving the dismissal of Jewish workers and managers, as well as the transfer of companies and enterprises to non-Jewish Germans, who bought them at prices officially fixed well below market value. From April 1933 to April 1938, "Aryanization" effectively reduced the number of Jewish-owned businesses in Germany by approximately two-thirds.

    What code forces miners to pay for:

    During the Nazi era, German authorities reintroduced the Jewish badge as a key element in their plan to persecute and eventually to destroy the Jewish population of Europe. They used the badge not only to stigmatize and humiliate Jews but also to segregate them and to watch and control their movements.

    1. What miners get through compliance with the Code: purpose, self-respect, structure, order, guidance, leadership.

      Most importantly, they get content!

      Tank up and watch local, ECM up, join us, move to null, or die. Does not matter to us what you do, we will try to kill you anyway!

      Welcome to EVE!

    1. How does it feel to be labeled by a single word that makes you so upset it grinds you teeth and flares your anger. Such a simple thing made so potent that you lash out at the utterance of a simple word.

    Well done Rob! I do love to stand before the citizens of Nakugard in local and offer them guidance and support – this wonderful, no-nonsense short story has provided Alt 00 with another valuable educational tool.

    Praise James! \0/

  9. Hey Rob, are you going for just a straight Olde English style, or will you add a bit of Monty Python, seems like there's a touch of that already but just curious if you will ramp it up or no?

    ReplyDelete
  10. Huh. Python-Schmython! No, seriously, I grew up with them around, so it would be odd if their influence was entirely absent.

    I just went for the easiest format I could manage (I can't draw), so whatever feeds in, goes in!
