I have finished capsuleer training, but my patience is put to the test again, as even more training awaits. Skills to acquire, ships to make mine. It is hard to control my impetuousness, since I am eager to start my quest.
God, through the visions I was granted, has instructed me to find the holy relics of the empire. Prime three among them are the crown Avetat and the scepter Ametat of the emperor Amash-Akura and the chalice of the prophet Dano Gheinok. To this quest I must devote my life, even if most will declare me mad.
Below are some initial notes I made on the Ametat and Avetat:
It is known that various impostors made forgeries, some with a lot of success. Harr Indi was an Amarr Holder on Matar who claimed to have discovered the Ametat and Avetat. He produced exquisite forgeries of the items that fooled the Empire for close to a year. Following discovery of his deception, he vanished.
A more sincere attempt seems to be Ilash Toth's expeditions thousand years ago, 21432 AD:
The first was launched shortly after the Empire developed the jump gate, when a notable radical theologian, Ilash Toth, and a contingent of fifty-thousand followers set up an expedition to find the artifacts. Toth had long espoused a return to the early days of the Empire, before contact with the Udorians instigated the Reclaiming, and purportedly received a vision from God that would lead him to the Ametat and Avetat and enable him to reestablish what he considered the old days of glory.
Toth's following had grown quite massive and his intention to launch an expedition drew great interest from all quarters of the Empire. The search lasted for three years, with Toth reportedly growing closer and closer to uncovering the resting place of the artifacts. Eventually he came to believe he was nearly at the point of discovery and sent a tenth of his followers back to Amarr to spread the word that the Ametat and Avetat were on their way back to the Empire.
However, Toth and his remaining followers never returned, and no trace of them was found. The system where those followers that had returned claimed they had left him was devoid of any indication of their fates, with no wrecks nor evidence that Toth had ever been to the system. Treasure hunters fell upon the system, but never discovered the Ametat and Avetat. To this day, Toth's disappearance remains a mystery

The ultimate fate of Ilash Toth and his followers has been a source of much speculation and conspiracy theory. The most commonly accepted answer is that the expedition met with some calamity and was destroyed, with the wreckage having long ago been picked apart and scattered. The nature of this disaster varies from theory to theory; some claim it was a group of pirates or raiders, others contend it was a critical engine failure or other ship malfunction.
However, several conspiracy theories remain popular. The most widespread theory claims the emperor, fearing that Toth would uncover the actual artifacts, sent a covert detachment of the navy after Toth. They followed Toth to the resting place of the Ametat and Avetat and then destroyed him before securing the artifacts for themselves. The Ametat and Avetat, this theory claims, remain under heavy guard in the Imperial vaults, awaiting a time when the emperor must reveal them to save his own power.
A similar but less outlandish theory claims the emperor merely used the expedition as a way to dispose of Toth. The theologian never discovered the artifacts but he was still eliminated by imperial assassins. The truth of the matter was covered up in order to prevent a public backlash.
Still other theories claim that Toth did find the Ametat and Avetat, but then departed with them to parts unknown, feeling that the Empire was doomed even if he returned. The followers he sent back, it is said, were those unworthy of following him to his new utopia.
Finally, there are some claims that Toth met with some advanced civilization, perhaps even the Jove, and was either destroyed, kidnapped for research, or willingly went to live among what he viewed as a more righteous society.
Whatever his fate, it seems unlikely the truth shall ever be uncovered.
