No living soul aboard the Osiris had ever seen anything like it. The grand ascension of Queen Aliyah to Pharaoh of the Eighth House was a spectacle of light and majesty that reached beyond ceremony — it was a rebirth of an Empire among the stars. The ship’s vast ceremonial chamber was transformed into a cathedral of brilliance, with radiant beams of gold sweeping across the vaulted glass dome as choirs sang from every deck. For the first time in centuries, the throne of the Empire had a living bearer, and every corridor of the ship pulsed with awe.

Lord Tariq, standing beside his daughter as the crown was placed upon her brow, called the event “the moment when legacy meets destiny.” His voice carried through the broadcast feed with quiet pride. “Our people have wandered the stars long enough. Tonight, the throne stands once more, not upon a world of stone, but upon the spirit of all who journey with us.

”For hours, Aliyah danced among those closest to her — her cousins, her father, and even the young cadets from the lower decks who had only ever seen her through broadcasts. They say her laughter echoed through the ...

Imperial Fleet Begins Its Long Voyage to Earth — Egyptian Space Military Stands Ready Amid the Unknown

The Egyptian Space Military has entered a new chapter as the royal fleet — led by the flagship Osiris — begins its historic journey toward Earth. Though the destination lies far beyond the known star routes, the soldiers of the Eighth House Defense Corps remain vigilant and resolute. During the departure ceremony, each soldier renewed their sworn allegiance to Queen Aliyah, vowing to defend her command and the vision she carries for the Empire’s return home.

Under the command of Admiral Meryetisy, the Imperial forces have begun full-scale readiness operations across the fleet. Training rotations, reconnaissance scans, and defensive simulations have been heightened in preparation for any unforeseen encounters during the voyage. The atmosphere aboard the Osiris is one of disciplined anticipation — soldiers performing their duties with quiet resolve, aware that this mission is more than exploration; it is destiny. “We may be far from any world, but we carry one within us,” Admiral Meryetisy told Earth Bound. “Every heartbeat aboard these ships is the pulse of the Empire, and it will not...

THE PEOPLE’S TRIBUTE — STARS IN HONOR OF THEIR QUEEN

By Zara El-Sayed, Staff Correspondent — Eighth House Cultural Report

Across the colonies and aboard the royal fleet, the commoners of the Egyptian Empire have found a new and luminous way to honor Queen Aliyah — by painting intricate star charts across their faces in shades of gold, indigo, and silver. The practice began quietly among artisans on the lower decks of the Osiris, inspired by the constellations once used by the ancient navigators of Earth. Within days, it spread throughout the ship and into the outer colonies, transforming from a gesture of admiration into a shared symbol of unity. Each pattern represents a different constellation — some marking the royal bloodline of the Eighth House, others symbolizing protection and safe passage through the stars.

To the citizens, this act is more than decoration; it is devotion in visible form. Families gather in common halls each evening, using fine mineral pigments and starlight reflectors to trace the maps of heaven across their skin. “We wear the journey upon our faces,” said one worker from the agriculture decks. “So that wherever the Queen leads us, the stars lead her back to us.” The Egyptian Broadcast Channel has confirmed that the Queen herself acknowledged the tribute during her evening address, calling it “a reflection of the light we carry within — and the light that will guide us home...

Educated at the New Home World Academy of Communications (Graduated Cycle 3743), Kem specialized in Historical Broadcasting and Galactic Political Studies, where his early commentaries on inter-colonial governance earned him the Crown Scholar’s Merit for Excellence in Public Communication.

Following his graduation, he began his career as a field correspondent for EBC’s Outer Realm Division in Cycle 3745, covering diplomatic missions, scientific expeditions, and civil restoration efforts across the frontier colonies. His sharp analysis and composed on-air presence drew attention during the Aurion Crisis Reports of Cycle 3748, where his live coverage became required study material for incoming cadets at the Broadcast Academy.

By Cycle 3752, Kem was promoted to Senior Correspondent for Council Affairs, offering nightly analysis from the upper chambers of the High Council aboard the Neteru Kheper. His balanced perspective and reputation for integrity led to his appointment as Chief News Editor of the Egyptian Broadcast Channel in Cycle 3757, where he now oversees the Earth Bound publication and its network of correspondents.
