I'm Zek, and this is a TSZ News Alert!

On the handcrafted bridge of the Four Leaf, a Sunvault model Sunship, Guardian Clover Moonchild stood. Radiant as a Goddess, Clover's beauty is, of course, was in no way marred by her current outfit - A polyleather work jacket, and a pair of engineer's utility overalls.

"I would've dressed up if I'd known you'd be taking photos," the Guardian and CEO of Both JoyCo and GCEPS said. Modest and graceful despite her fame and success, Clover presents as a down-to-earth philanthropist and caregiver. She showed me her expansive fish garden and offered me a cup of tea as I entered her ship.

"My favorite is cinnamon and sweet clove tea," she said before taking a sip from her teacup. As she swallowed the first ship, she blinked in surprise. "Ooh, I forgot I spiked that," she elaborated.

And so, over a shared pot of (thankfully unspiked) tea, we got down to the interview.

Responding to the rumors of GCEPS working on terraforming planets near Fatar space for purposes of wildlife conservation, Clover stated simply, "That is not true." Loyal subscribers know, of course, that these rumors have been based on the appearance of GCEPS Equipment near, and within, Fatar space. When pressed, Clover stated that she "heard nothing about that," possibly signaling that someone is siphoning equipment from GCEPS without her knowledge.

But as the interview continued, this reporter began questioning whether or not the rumors might even be true. Clover, and GCEPS, seems entirely focused on one thing - the absolute destruction of Fantom Laboratories, known recently for their laboratory experiments escaping into populated areas, causing mass death.

"If you visit their labs, it's pretty clear they're evil! They basically striaght up TELL you. Their slogan is "Progress Without Limits" - that's terrifying! Limits are what keep people moral. If you have no limits, everything is doable," Moonchild said, "The lab in Krell has a PERSON in a cage...It's terrible. They cry out for help."

When pressed to confirm whether or not Clover intended to use her companies' money and influence to oppose Fantom, Clover doubled down.

"I intend to destroy them," said the usually-pacifist Moonchild. Although elaborating that she had "repeatedly broke in, embezzled money from them, and graffitied all over," Clover refused to explain her plans further, only stating that certain assets of Fantom would be "easy to kill."

Have Clover and GCEPS finally moved onto the offensive? If so, this reporter applauds such action. It's about time well-meaning people in this sector took a stand.
