About two years ago, I was exploring in Feythabolis, following up on a lead about a possible offshoot of the Talocan civilization in that region. Among the bewildering array of short-lived barbarian kingdoms, one stood out: the Zerg. They were hospitable enough to give me docking rights in their stations for my archaeological expedition.
Being a friar, I shared my enthousiasm about the Amarr faith, and cautiously attempted some proselytizing. Most Zerg thought I was crazy, whereas in all honesty their own religion sounded to me far more crazy. They believe that all of reality is some sort of simulation ran by Gods who live on a volcanic island, led by a chief deity called Hilmar, which, I pointed out to them, is a system in Kador (perhaps the home of their Gods? It does not have a lava planet, though).
They were rather adamant about their beliefs and I did not hold high hopes for their conversion to the true faith. Nevertheless, through my friends at the Theology Council, I arranged for missionaries to be brought over, as I had permission to build a small chapel in one of their stations in P8-BKO. After returning back to the Empire, my focus shifted back to my own quest and I paid no more attention to this.
So, you can imagine my delight when I found out yesterday that the seed that was planted bore fruit! I heard that ms. Tather Borg -one of our fleet commanders- had been contacted by the Zerg for a joint operation agaist the Drifters. That they send an official delegation to the Empire and contribute voluntaries in the Drifter crusade, is such an important step towards full recognition by the Empire! I will thank and praise God today for this unforeseen development and pray that they may ultimately join us in full communion in the faith!
