Once famous trader, test pilot and explorer turned infamous space cannibal, Ryan Reign long thought to have died in his fabled quest to locate the legendary "Developia" has surprised the universe earlier tonight by appearing in Metana C-5 of Itan controlled space.

Perhapes even more shocking than the notorious space cannibals appearance was where he was seen. Several Itani pilots engaging the hive in fierce, life or death battle reported seeing Reign ACTUALLY INSIDE a Hive Queen.

one pilot was quoted after the battle...

"it was the strangest thing I've ever seen in battle! there he was just inside the queen, I wasnt sure what to make of it. I've personally flown in the border wars with him and he was always a bit off but to land in a queen, thats just insane!"

...one of our passing news ships was able to capture the shocking image



UIT government officials had this to say...

"well, the man clearly is insane but as I understand it he is still held in high regard with the Propeller Group, and only eats the pilots who attack him...and I'm sure we've all had Soylent Green at a Serco restaruant at some point. so unless he commits a crime here in UIT space, I say live and let live.

The Propeler Group was unavailable for comment. However, several Itani monks have announced plans to mount a rescue attempt for Reign and try to ease or repair the extensive psycological damage attributed to the many years of solitude in his search.

The Serco Dominion has not, does not, and will not sell such a product. Your groundless accusations require you to make an apology. Statements such as yours encourage the bias against our great nation, and cannot continue.

Uh, Aramarth, you might want to rethink your statements about Serco and cannibalism...

upon more research UIT NEWS has uncovered many reports of cannibalism by Serco warriors. None of the warriors who spoke of such things were horrified; only bored or mildly amused. while it may be true that not all Serco practice cannibalism it is a certianty that many do.
an investigative journalist has also recently discovered certain Corvus pirates have been over looking cargo in favor of crews,
crews which are never heard from again. while there is no direct evidence that these crews are being sold to Serco diners and eateries, several captured pirates have made allusions that the crews were indeed sold as live stock.

representitives of the Serco government, when questioned only replied "No comment". nor were there any Serco officials who would comment on the practice of stringing enemy pilots across the hulls of serco fighters.

It is my position that Dr. Lecter, Lexicon, and other such individuals were/are Akanese plants- installed in a calculated effort to discredit the Dominion. Entire nations are not responsible for the acts of mere handfuls of individuals, either.

In addition to the previous reports there was of course the some what dramatized trial of the infamous Dr. Lecter. a man who by all accounts not only eats flesh but drinks blood as well.

One only need glance through the charges brought against him or the trial transcript to realize that the Serco do indeed engage in canabilisim.

for futher referance sources, see...Lecter trial verdict.

ONE EATS PEOPLE!!

Aramarth may be correct, given Lecter's prior identity... http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/7/13634?page=4#200228
