I am sending you this transmission from Freeport 6 while the transport still receives extensive repairs. The General of the Council along with one of his minions attacked me in Roussillon system but thankfully I made it to the freeport so that I can send you this important transmission. We have been betrayed!
But let's take things from the beginning.
Herr Yoshida has shared with me his initial logs which I am also going to present in this report. Apparently the Provocateur intercepted an empty Council transport in Colorado system. Even though the Council opened fire in the beginning, the captain was quickly intimidated to cease fire. During the conversation the captain told him many things about the Council and about the location of the new home of the Council, Roussillon system. Eventually, the captain named Imrahil Amroth invited us to their system. In return the Provocateur escorted the transport in Liberty and even stopped an Outcast from extorting the Gallic revolutionist. Herr Amroth paid for Mr. Yoshida's services of course.
However, the most important sentence of the entire chatlog was undoubtedly the following:
Imrahil Amroth Wrote:[23.05.2015 14:11:59] [C]-CLT-Aquitaine: 2/3 E on the navmap, as I said from Scarborough Station straight north
Even though Herr Yoshida didn't expect to find anything worthwhile he visited the location. To his astoundment he found a jump hole at exactly the location he was told. After he jumped he encountered a mine field but he was already warned by the Gallic so he had brought with him sensitive equipment which allowed him to discover the way out. In total Herr Yoshida made three surveys, and he has still explored only a small part of the entire system. His efforts were mainly hindered by the lack of a base of operations, so he had to return to Newcastle for refueling very often. It should be noted that a Kusari Battleship flying the old Imperial colors can also be found in the mining field's entrance. [1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8]
Nevertheless, during one survey he met a Council transport finding its way out of a much more complicated mining field which was surrounding another jump hole. The captain was very friendly, helpful and informative. Here is their brief discussion.
Communications log Wrote:Mr.Yoshida:- Oh, hello there. [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: hello Mr.Yoshida:- I was trying to find a way inside this mining field, but alas this ship has no significant survey equipment on it. Mr.Yoshida:- I think I'll follow the pattern you just showed me [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: Go to this base and straight to hole Mr.Yoshida:- Where are you going by the way? [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: Toulouse Mr.Yoshida:- That is the planet? [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: It is safety for these people Mr.Yoshida:- Oh I see. Thanks for letting me know. [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: safe journey Mr.Yoshida:- I think I'll stick around these sectors a bit longer. Thank you Captain. Mr.Yoshida:- First time the Lane Hackers hear about Toulouse. Looks like a terraformed planet. [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: no problem 2015-05-27 08:51:31 SMT Traffic control alert: [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois has requested to dock [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: no idea of origins just getting people away from the mad King Mr.Yoshida:- So you're a blockade runner? [C]-CLT-Coureur.de.Bois: More a liberator of people
Furthermore, the Provocateur also contacted FynnMcScrap, a leading figure of the T&T lackeys. Fynn revealed to him that there is also a jump hole leading to Baffin system, however we have not discovered its location yet. He also said that they are very secretive about this system, which was of course obvious since not even the Lane Hackers knew about it. [1 | 2]
Eventually, because of the difficulties in the survey pf the system and the lack of more interactions with the Council members who invited us in the first place, Mr Yoshida moved to more important tasks while he instructed me to continue what he had left unfinished. Inside Roussillon I also encountered a GMG transport named arijuk, which was however unresponsive. And that led me to today's encounter...
Initially it was a small Council fighter but then he called his master, a Council general according to him. I won't further comment on the conversation, as it speaks for itself. I am only attaching the evidence of the Council assault on the transport. [1 | 2 | 3]
[C]-CLN-Candide: Now, where were we at? [C]-CLN-Candide: Oh, oui. Explain yourself. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: I am at a loss. Shall I start from the beginning? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: I thought you were informed. [C]-CLN-Candide: Of what? [C]-CLN-Candide: Nobody having the authority to either invite you directly or suggest it have done so. LH~Domino.Theory: What? LH~Domino.Theory: He was a Kapitan! [C]-CLN-Candide: Et who's this "he"? [C]-Jean.Francouis: Well then he did it under the table LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Kapitan of [C]-CLT-Aquitaine, Herr Amroth! LH~Domino.Theory: An important man as we were told! [C]-CLN-Candide: You also spoke about the Coureur de Bois, what about that one? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: When I first entered this system with my crew I encountered him. He was carrying refugees. [C]-CLN-Candide: How many? LH~Domino.Theory: He told us about the Planet but he was in a hurry so I still didn't have docking access to Toulouse. LH~Domino.Theory: Thousands? I don't remember. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: How all those things come into a surprise for you? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: We were invited to come hier und we receive... such hostility. [C]-CLN-Candide: If the Coureur de Bois was carrying thousands, then I warn you one last time. No lies. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: The Lane Hackers never lie. We have evidence of everything I said. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Guten Tag StarRaven the second! [C]-CLN-Candide: Hmm. If you submit that evidence to the Council, you may leave in one piece. StarRaven.II: 'ehllo LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Leave? But Kapitan Amroth invited us! [C]-Jean.Francouis: Why do you need to be here in the first palce I wonder? [C]-CLN-Candide: And General LaFlamme will now throw you out. Then I'll have a talk with Monsieur Amroth later. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: We had no idea about this system, he told us where to find the jump hole and everything. [C]-Jean.Francouis: It seems we have a stain in our rankes monsiuer LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Throw me out? Do you know how this will look to our Professors? [C]-CLN-Candide: I know how it looks like right now. [C]-CLN-Candide: You are an intruder, whom if complies, may live an other day. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Don't forget that we now have knowledge of this system. [C]-CLN-Candide: I think that takes away one of our two options, doesn't it? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Intel that many group would like to purchase. Showing such unfriendlishness will only lead to further retaliation... LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: We have come as friends and now we are thrown out with no explanations. [C]-Jean.Francouis: Acording to the freelancer that just passed you were here about a week ago... LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Indeed. This is where I encountered Coureur de Bois. [C]-CLN-Candide: Monsieur, why do you think we'll let you leave alive with such information in your possession? [C]-Jean.Francouis: And someone by the name of "Mr.Yoshida". LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Take it easy please... [C]-CLN-Candide: Easy? After your threats? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: We were invited here and now you will murder your guests? [C]-CLN-Candide: I may, but the position of a General is not in which I can take the luxury of taking things easy. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: It took me weeks to survey even a portion of this system. But this is no survey ships. I went back to Magellan for refueling and of course I saved my progress. Killing me will not help you hide anything. [C]-CLN-Candide: You were invited by a Caporal. It weights no more than an invitation of a rock. [C]-CLN-Candide: I think this concludes our encounter fast. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: So Herr Amroth is not a man of importance? [C]-CLN-Candide: You delete all your survey data about this system right now or I'll delete you myself. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: So why he invited us here and gave us all the instructions? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Answer me General! [C]-Jean.Francouis: Dont demand him to do things. [C]-CLN-Candide: I don't know, but once I've dealt with you, I'll have a talk with him as well. [C]-Jean.Francouis: You are not in a position to make demands [C]-CLN-Candide: Now, comply or face our projectiles. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: As I said, the small survey that we have conducted until I finally met Council ships, is not here. It is back in Magellan. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: I shall take my leave now. [C]-Jean.Francouis: Well this doesnt help [C]-CLN-Candide: Does that sound like you are unable... or wait, maybe you just do not want to comply? LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: It is more of an inability to comply than anything. [C]-CLN-Candide: That leave us no other choice then.
- The cruiser starts firing mortars to my transport -
LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Mister Yoshida made most of the survey, I came after he had other business to attend to. LH~Domino.Theory: Wolfgang: Are you out of your mind? LH~Domino.Theory: This is not over! LH~Domino.Theory: Got damnit it! 2015-06-09 19:28:00 SMT Traffic control alert: LH~Domino.Theory has requested to dock
In thirty hours I expect to leave this damn place and finally reach Barrier Gate.
