Hello my fellow pilots. Most of you know me as Larzok, Junior Operations Officer of EXO. But some of you know me better as the High Priest of the Meow, Speaker of the Meow of our beloved Space Cat. Some of you may wonder why we have hijacked your comms.... Or where infact the regularly scheduled "Political Rantings of the Space Austrialians" Stream is, so I will make this brief.
In the months since EXO believed they had "cured" us of our madness there have been rising tensions. While those of you who have chosen to ignore the Meows of our great Space Cat believe all is well, all is not infact well. There is a growing under current of distrust and in some cases loathing expressed towards those who have been guided out of the Darkness by his Holy Whiskers... And despite our best attempts to smooth the ruffled fur of those around us, we have come to an impasse.... As our Religion is one of Fire and Bloodshed there are certain things we must do to keep our faith....Stemming from this are fundamental differences that can not be reconciled with the general populace within EXO. We refuse to sit idle while the Pawless seek to declaw our great faction, through exposing our trade routes, to tieing our Paws with endless mewling Alliances that serve only to keep the weak alive and the strong held back. So from this day forward... All Adherents of the Meow have resolved to withdraw from EXO, resign any positions of leadership we hold, and remove ourselves from EXO Space. We do this peacefully, and with no malice towards our EXO Brothers and Sisters. We have sat silently long enough, and our wrath shall no longer be tempered, and our claws no longer sheathed....We are the Adherents of the Meow. We are the chosen of Space Cat. And we shall Burn all without Paws...

I've watched this multiple times over the last few weeks of wandering.... I know some of them where hurt by the schism.... But we couldn't let it go on any longer.... We've spread ourselves into the darkness... Only coming together in small groups. Some of us have kept lines of communication open with our former faction... Some have embraced the bloodlust, and adhere heartily to the 9th edict. For now, I search... Wandering from system to system, planet to planet, station to station.. I know it's out here somewhere... I can hear the call... In some sectors it comes as a roar... in others a faint whisper... I don't know how long it will take... But home is calling to me, and it is only a matter of time before I find it....It isn't any of the places I've called home before... It is a new home... the home of The Space Cat, and once I find it... Our work can truly begin.
