Breaking News: Turf War Erupts as Guardians Feel the Withdrawals

Lbox87 here, reporting to you live from the Tower where rumors and allegations have spread over the last few weeks regarding the illegal trading of the narcotic substance known as Synthesis. After the recent prohibition on Synthesis had been lifted a few months ago, the Vanguard openly jumped on the opportunity to legally profit off of the controversial drug by having their gunsmith, Banshee-44, sell variations of the drug at differing qualities and potencies. One strain of synthesis, however, has left a crippling addiction throughout the Guardian community as Guardians flock to Banshee-44 to unload all the Glimmer they have to purchase this "Heavy" Synthesis, or "Purple Sky" as users often call it. Reports have been popping up all over the galaxy as Guardians are accused of many heinous acts to acquire more Glimmer to purchase Purple Sky; allegations ranging from Awoken prostitution rings to the mass genocide and looting of Cabal in the Exclusion Zone. Seeing an opportunity to capitalize, the Nine had begun sneaking one of their agents into the tower under the guise of Exotic Armament dealing. Rumors quickly spread as Guardians realized that Xûr, Agent of the Nine, was actually selling Purple Sky in bulk in exchange for mysterious Strange Coins. Purple Sky consumption sky rocketed, bringing attention to Xûr from the Vanguard. Witnesses have reported seeing Commander Zavala threatening Xûr in the lounge of the Tower several weeks ago, and since then Xûr's stock of Purple Sky have been sporadic as he attempts to continue sneaking his supply into the tower. Further reports indicate that Vanguard agents are pushing into the Nine's territory to sell their Purple Sky at the inflated Glimmer prices. An anonymous source has also tipped that to cover their trail, the Vanguard has employed Eris, the famed Hellmouth survivor, to sell Purple Sky through another form of currency, but at a seemingly unreasonable exchange rate. Supposedly this was only to throw off accusations that the Vanguard is monopolizing on Synthesis by allowing an independent vendor to sell it, only at higher prices. This is only the beginning of a massive drug turf war that is projected to get much worse. Guardians have been seen going through heavy withdrawals and crippling debt, many living homeless out of their ships or on the Tower common grounds. Kinderguardians are being removed from their mentors and placed in foster care as the addiction spreads. Armor dealers have become opportunists in the matter, creating faux Heavy Synthesis enhancing gear that can actually malfunction and destroy the product, the manufacturer then likely splitting the profit with the Vanguard in the process. President DeeJ has been questioned numerous times on the matter regarding how he plans to handle this escalating situation, but as of late the only resolution coming is to impose manufacturer regulations on the previously mentioned armor. Rumors are spreading that President DeeJ is actually in cahoots with the Vanguard and refuses to address the inherent addiction in this cycle of chaos. Indeed, these are dark days in the galaxy... Lbox87, signing off. Edit: Thank you for getting the word out Guardians, addiction is a serious problem that should not be taken lightly. New Monarchy has opened up a free detox clinic for anyone willing to seek out help. Edit 2: Everyone lately seems to be like this [url]http://imgur.com/mqmAeCx[/url] (Thanks OZ420CT!)

  • Thank you for the objective reporting of what's really is going on in the Tower, so many other things go unreported... Tower Mayor Bombadil Cragglethatch is currently investigating the wrong doing of pres Deej as well as some other shady characters, hopefully, this will all be exposed.
