We are proud and excited to present to you the first issue of The Drake Chronicle, a new and independent newspaper that aims to be the voice of the Underhive.
The Drake Chronicle is a newspaper by the Underhive, for the Underhive. We are a team of talented and passionate journalists who live and work in the Underhive, and who care about the issues and stories that matter to you.
We are not affiliated with any gang, house, corporation, or authority. We are not afraid to speak the truth, to expose the corruption, to challenge the injustice, and to celebrate the diversity of the Underhive.
We cover news from all over the Underhive, but especially from the Drake Cluster, the area where we are based. The Drake Cluster is a vibrant and dynamic part of the Underhive, where gangs, nomads, scavengers, traders, hackers, entertainers, and many others coexist and compete.
The Drake Cluster is also a dangerous and violent part of the Underhive, where wars, conflicts, crimes, and atrocities are common. The Drake Cluster is where we need your eyes and ears, your stories and opinions, your support and feedback.
We report with bravery and integrity. We often infiltrate the criminal world to report undercover. We risk our lives to bring you the truth. We don’t sugarcoat or censor our stories. We don’t shy away from controversy or criticism. We don’t compromise or sell out.
We hope you enjoy reading The Drake Chronicle as much as we enjoy writing it. We hope you find it informative, engaging, and inspiring. We hope you join us in our mission to make The Drake Chronicle the best newspaper in the Underhive.
Thank you for your attention and trust.
Lena Frost and Zara Skye
