BARREN ARRAKIS

Cyrus, governor of Arrakis, announced on the 19th or April that harvesting sand in Arrakis is an offense punishable by law. Governor Cyrus has stated that anyone caught breaking this new law will be charged with griefing.

In addition to this new law change in Arrakis, Governor Cyrus has proposed his new plan, titled, "Make Arrakis Great Again", to restore Arrakis's landscape. This plan's motive is to smooth Arrakis's landscape from the excess of sand farming, and to restore the sand to important areas. Governor Cyrus is accepting any donations and help the citizens and residents of Aquila are willing to give.

Aquilan citizens may harvest sand to the south of Aquila now, in the ocean.

MICRO-AGGRESSIONS

On the night of April 18th, controversy sparked as SpiritThrasher, a new Aquilan resident, was caught mining around Microdose's bunker. SpiritThrasher pleads innocence on his part, claiming he got lost in the tunnels beneath Aquila's surface, and was simply attempting to mine his way back out when he ran into Microdose's bunker.

Microdose does not plan on pushing charges.

SCHOLAR SCRAWLER

On April 15th, Chief Justice Gjum announced the creation of the Scholar's Guild. Led by Inferior Justice Cyrus, the Scholar's Guild's purpose is to educate and entertain Aquila's citizens. Members of the Scholar's Guild write works of fiction and non-fiction, to contribute to the nation's culture and knowledge.

The Scholar's Guild has picked up the Aquilan newspaper, as well. The previous owner of the Aquilan Times has not been heard from for quite a period of time, so the Scholar's Guild has decided to take the opportunity to provide a quick way to let Aquilan citizens and residents know about current events.
