The Purge of Litharge.

On the 20th of Hecto, in the year 942 A.E., a hacked transmission originating from Nocturne Station was broadcast to most mindsims in the Starmourn sector. The transmission was that of a grainy video feed, showing a Jin man, a small Elgan individual in gray robes, and several figures in the background (later identified by gesture-recognition security software as Argo T'rath, Frixxi T'rath, Imelda T'rath, and Flipilaria.)

The man, known to many as the wanted terrorist Shoko T'rath, introduced the Elgan as Phryxi T'rath, one of his loyal acolytes. There was a short speech, in which Shoko explained that Phryxi had chosen to join the death god of their own free will, to better convince the galaxy of the organization's fervor. The camera followed Phryxi as they moved with what appeared to be a homemade explosive device into a largely deserted cloning bay.

Though the transmission became fuzzy and unreliable following the explosion, in the intervening days, it seems that the following events transpired:

- Flipilaria turned on Shoko T'rath while deep in the bowels of Nocturne Station, and with the help of a heavily masked individual in B.E.A.S.T. armor (who some speculate may have been Rylek Ironbound) ended his life. No INR was found in the corpse, confirming to most authorities that the de facto leader of the Congregation of T'rath does seem to be permanently dead.

- Upon learning of Shoko's death, Congregation cultists in the Celestine Ascendancy went berserk, attacking everything and everyone in an effort to follow their leader's example and meet T'rath.

- Led by Guardian Prime Ata Aurazi, the Immortals began a systematic eradication of the violent cultists in the streets of Litharge. They were assisted by members of the Scatterhome-based Ironbound dynasty, most notably Rylek, Daikojun, and Kyre Ironbound.

- Upon receiving favorable reports of decreased cultist activity in Litharge, Sherkaney Tikikik of the Hon-En-Tur Exaltation verified that her GovCorp had approved re-opening the Crossings cloning bay, following repairs. She went on to state that any INR data on HETE's servers that matches a cultist's identity will be denied a new body in the future.

As of this writing, activity from the Congregation of T'rath has largely gone underground.

Reconstruction efforts of the Celestine Crossings cloning bay has begun.
