"A revolutionary not in bloodshed." I may as well be honest with you and state that this day has been coming for quite some time. But I'm sure a few of the Hessians knew already. Yes. It is true I strongly oppose the Rheinland Government and its forces. Yes. It is true I strongly oppose the incursion of the corsairs into Rheinland. And I will continue to do both, but I feel it best to inform you that I will no longer be doing so as a Hessian.
Consider this my notice of resignation and take it not as a bitter omen of betrayal, but one of me thanking you for even allowing me the honour of flying the colours. But there comes a time when ones lies to yourself must end and I have been lying to myself for far too long. Perhaps I'm just not built to do the same things you believe yourselves built to do or maybe I just disagree with your methods, of which I'm sure there is reason, but I don't share this exact reasoning.
I will never oppose a Hessian by force. Nor will I turn my back on the good that was at times shown to me. But this is the end of the line for me. I'll attempt to find peace elsewhere to continue both the practices of opposing the government and the corsair intrusion. One of you gave me the chance to serve and the other is perhaps the only reason I'm alive right now and not sandwiched along with a certain Donau in a minefield. For this I wish you both well, goodbye.

Hmm,
This wasn't entirely unexpected, your soft attitude and lust for Lena was obvious. I wish I could say I was fustrated, but I can't exactly find a reason why. The Army doesn't need people slowing down the movement. I am most displeased that your attitude infected, and costed me a potential brigadegeneral.
That being said, officially, I accept your resignation. Lukas Reimann you no longer hold any authority over Hessian personnel. You are to leave all equipment made by the Army which includes, but is not limited to, Ships, weapons, and arms, behind. You will be permitted to reside as a civilian of the Hessians on Vogtland, your access codes to all other ranking military installations will be revoked immediately. Lack of compliance will result in your arrest.

"A revolutionary not in bloodshed." I find it insulting that you think I pushed Lena to this, you're wrong. She wanted to stay and it was only because she did so that I did the same. We disagree fundamentally, you kill whoever disagrees with you, but little do you know that this won't save Rheinland. There won't be a Rheinland left to save at this rate.
The feeling of displeasure is mutual and I promise to return my equipment to the Armee the day I stop working with the bundschuh as I am now. So I find it only fitting I keep my Odin but return my Thor. Your invitation to stay on vogtland is appreciated, but I have no desire to stay alongside people more reckless than a juvenile on cardamine.
It's one thing to call me soft, it's a complete other to call me harmful to the movement, you would be a more fitting example of that, not me. I don't know what made you this heartless and void of compassion but I'm sure it was severe.
I never want to hear from you again, but you have my word regarding the equipment. If I leave the bundschuh, it'll come back to you. At most I might pressure service in the coalition. Goodbye.

[Message Begins]
I gave you my word and my pursuit for a new cause to serve has led me to the coalition. I've kept my ship thus far into my service there and employed it against our mutual enemies as well as to the defence of our people, more specifically the Hessians.
If you do still desire for me to return the ship to you despite this information as well as my continued respect for the ultimate goals of the revolution, then notify me and I'll have it returned immediately. Though if you do not want this, then I'd like to make continued use of the vessel in fulfilling shared goals, albeit differently.
Soon enough I'll prove your accusation of me being weak wrong, I am no pushover and I'm not afraid of killing for what I believe in. I'll keep count of the dead military, police, agenten, corsairs and otherwise for you. Depending on my schedule you'll receive regular updates to prove your insult factually wrong.
Remember that your most precious tool is your humanity and that sometimes pushing someone down only makes them stronger, stay safe and ensure the same for our people. I'll be doing it from my end.
