There are three official publications in circulation on the Pious Lament
OOC Players are invited to submit articles from their characters for publication here.
Cotidianis Mandatis, (Daily Orders) is published daily by the admin department and is a compilation of all the special orders submitted by all departments and calendar events, required reading for officers.
Current issue is all routine stuff for ‘Peaceful Orbit’, and official notification of the new Lady Captain / Rogue Trader taking over.

Trader's Cornicles is the Pious Lament’s official weekly newsletter, published by the admin office news department. This contains official notices and information about the ship, prayers, an uplifting editorial, 'technomancer's word', ship relevant articles, occasionally sector or imperium news and is heavily illustrated.
This week’s publication is dominated coverage of the Rogue Traders inauguration with plenty of pictures, article and interviews with associated people both shipboard and planetside. Very positive and congratulations are extended by the entire ship's compliment.

Weekly Lament is a sanctioned, independent publication produced on Gabriel Street, content is vetted by the admin office before it goes to print. Most of this is birth’s deaths and marriages, small adds and reports on sporting activities on the achievements of low-ranking individuals amongst the crew. Prayers, fiction and 'pep talks', from more senior staff are usually included.
This publication is also covers by the inauguration, and congratulates the new Lady Captain, with a declaration of loyalty and service from all the staff. There are few pictures here, and those mostly taken from the vid transmissions but there is one of her on the flight deck with her family and it quotes her as saying, "My thanks for your perseverance in these past trying times, the loss of a Rogue Trader is never easy and you have all performed your duties with honour and grace, and for that you all have my most sincere gratitude. As we move forward know that I will endeavour to reward you all as best I can. My first show of thanks will be an extra grog ration to be given to all crew who have honoured me by staying aboard and loyal to this mighty vessel and the crew"

***FROM THE OFFICE OF THE CHIEF CHIRURGEON***

Greetings, and all hail the God-Emperor!

Are you going to be translating to, and traveling through, the Warp soon? Here are some key things to keep in mind!

First off - Don't panic! Continue your normal duties unless otherwise ordered, or you come across a "special situation", which we'll talk about in a moment. Assume that every day is like the ones before when the ship is traveling through space or the Warp. Your duties won't complete themselves. =)

Secondly - Be alert! Traveling through the warp can sometimes present challenges, and "special situations" may occur, so we must be watchful. However, if you see something out of the ordinary, don't panic! Keep calm as a cool head will help you better get through it.

Thirdly - If you come across a "special situation", don't panic! Stay calm, get away as quickly and safely as you can, and inform a superior officer as soon as possible. If you see something strange, horrific, terrifying or just odd, do not engage it! Move away, following the steps provided above. Stay with other people as often as you can. The buddy system is a great way to stay alive and sane in the warp.

Try memorizing this. S.A.F.E. Stay Away From Evil. That includes those "special situations" I mentioned! And remember - the Hospice is open to you! If you are seeing things, if you are injured, make your way to us so we can help you! Stay calm, stay S.A.F.E.!

May the Emperor's light shine upon you and guide you!

Chief Chirurgeon Hadrian Kennek

GREETINGS CREW OF THE PIOUS LAMENT
From the Offices of the Rogue Trader

Gelron has successfully rejoined the Greater Imperium, and now falls within the Saoirse Protectorate. A glorious relic of the Omnissiah is recovered granting lost archeotech with which we can defeat our enemies and usher in a new age of prosperity. New crew will be joining our glorious vessel and within the coming months resupply here and ensure that the system is recovering properly then we will journey to a forge world to affect minor repairs and resupply as well as handing over information of the archeotech.

While we are here on planet, crew who have earned respite will be granted rights to visit the planet on a rotational basis. Report to your superior officer at the end of your shift to determine your eligibility and assigned respite.

Rejoice for soon we will embark into the stars to exact vengeance against those who would see us dead and attempt to usurp the proper rule of the Divine God-Emperor!
