Vorsia News Network, Vorsia Companion - Closing of Gearworks

The closure of Gearworks company on galactic scale came as a surprise to business analysts and employees alike. Only two months ago the company reached its first year of active operations and continued to expand in membership and services. There were no indications of financial struggle or shortage of workers. Forgemaster Lilith Kaine-Delcroix revealed in her public statement that her reasons were no based on the status of the company, but her own inability to continue its management.

"Gearworks has been a home to me and many others for over a year. From the very start we kept expanding and improving our services, I consider myself lucky that not once we had to deal with theft attempt or struggles of similar kind that seem to plague many companies and groups in the galaxy. In the beginning there was only handful of us and over time we saw many people come and go, some of which left a lasting memory in Gearworks. Quite few stayed for a very long time, some even from the very start. It wasn't always easy to keep our community active, but as a leader I was grateful for honest and reliable employees. My gratitude also goes to the Trade Federation for their continued support and help, Gearworks wouldn't be as successful without them. It is because of the success that I have decided to close down; I did not wish to see Gearworks become unreliable and struggle to maintain itself.

We could not continue without changing too much or putting the burden of leadership onto someone not ready for it. After my personal life took a severe blow when my wife disappeared, I soon knew that my ability to lead Gearworks was fading. I could not continue to affect and be responsible so many people with clear continence. Some see it as sad news, but I am happy. I am happy to see our members being able to move on without resenting my decision. It brings joy to see members of the Gearworks family be successful elsewhere in the galaxy. I would like to thank the Avance Coalition for taking in some members already and giving them opportunities. In the end, Gearworks will always be remembered fondly as a successful company, as a leader in retirement I couldn't ask for more."

Some of the Gearworks employess also commented on their experience and time in the company.

"DSG has been not only a home for me, but a gateway into a new life. Everything that I will become from now on out is thanks to Lilith's guidance and the family of Dark Skies Gearworks."

Forger Nick Sandi

"For one year I been with DSG and never been happier in the galaxy, it was a great place full of friends. Lilith was great to work for EPIC stuff if you ask me. So active. Open, Freedom and so much more."

Forger Keyukep Xiuhcoatl

"Of all the people I've met and all the worlds I've visited, I have never felt more welcome than in the company of Lilith and the family I have found within Dark Skies Gearworks. They were more than a faction and there will always be a place in my heart for all of them."

In traditional Gearworks manner, Forgemaster Lilith and Gearsmith Tex Navos officially ended operations of the company by demolishing the Masterforge headquarters building. Spokesman for the Vorsia Companion government commented that the moon will be largely unaffected by closure of the company, the orbital stations built by Gearworks will be used for the benefit of Vorsian people.
