Breaking News: Grand Master disappears from home!
The Grand Master of the Blue Lotus Syndicate, known to many as the beloved distributor of ambrosia across the Sirius Sector, has been found missing in his home in an undisclosed location. This dissapearance, according to the Blue Lotus Syndicate's executors, came only a week after the Grand Master had altered his will to name an ambitious underboss, as opposed to his enigmatic second in command, as his sucessor as Grand Master. This will has been authenticated by Maltan linguists and the Death office of the Inquisition. While no evidence has been found suggesting the Grand Master had died, Blue Lotus Syndicate protocol dictates that if such an event were to occur, and no response could be found on special systems, the sucessor named in the Grand Master's will would be the Grand Master's steward while search efforts were mounted.

Already, sources within the Syndicate have begun to discuss new evidence and theories that may shed light on this mystery. Theories range from Corsair assassination to disappearing for infiltration purposes to madness from a one-time exposure to the Lady Razgriz to Phantom kidnapping. Dr Mario Soprano of the Constantinople Research Institute (not to be confused with the vile Cambridge Research Institute) has found no DNA evidence after an extensive search that would suggest any sort of struggle or even a false struggle.

An unnamed security officer has offered a different theory, under the understanding his identity would be kept confidential;
"I suspect that he [the 2nd in command] has something to do with this. His [native land of the 2nd in command] roots have always made me suspicious around the local circle, and the recent reports I've received from independent investigators [in the 2nd in command's native land] have turned up some rather disturbing information. For one, one of his underlings seems to, with his consent, have associated with that Hogosha slime Enrique Corleone, who, as some of you may already know, is standing trial with that Dr. But what is far more disturbing is that they apparently have made associations with a strange group of [military] personnel, who's names and records even most of our agents cannot access. Suffice to say, I think that something odd is going on, and I don't like it."

In the meantime, Malta News Network will continue to cover this exciting story on a new neural net channel established specifically for the lives of the Dons. We all here hope that the new leader can effectively govern the Syndicate and that the Grand Master will one day return to once again spread the Orange Dream.
