To All customers past and present Abh Research Groups Tsukihime Labs are currently closed and operation have been suspended till further notice. It has come to our attention that some rouge Blood Dragons seem to have targeted our Civilian Research Labs in the Kepler system. I would like to take the time to thank all who have been customers a that have purchased our products for their space faring needs. most the crew and staff are taking refuge at the Ames and all the Nottens have been move to the Goddess Shizuha.
At this time I would like to ask if any assistance can be lent in the protection of the Labs we are but a small research group and do not have the paramilitary assets to defend the labs from any protracted attack of any magnitude. The Shizuha is a unarmed research and our current stable of ships are lacking the ablity to fight. I will leave this comm open for any that wish to lend a hand
I am Hakodate Yoshino, and i speak on behalf of Ando Clan, of the Blood Dragons Shogunate. Your message have caught my attention; despite the fact we have never had business with Tsukihime Laboratories - neither I see an issue in their existance, as such - I am to assure you that nor The Shogunate, nor The Ando is somehow related to that declaration. To an extent, I will move a capital asset in my disposal to watch over the situation there, and to hopefully try and sort it out peacefully, as well as to make sure no Shogunate asset is assisting the rogue Dragon.
Despite the lies Samura is spreading widely throughout Kusari - our goal was never to harm any civilians.
I shall lend you a hand on this matter.
Peace, being the distant dream it is, comes inevitably, and goes hand in hand with justice.
Cursed be the war.
Watashi wa Kobayashi Setsuna desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu.
I am the Commodore-Major and Director of the Ouroboros Hakugyokurou Diplomatic Affairs Directorate.
Ouroboros, being a active customer of ABH Laboratories, has dispatched a 2-ship fighter-bomber element to Ames as a deterrent to this threat - Ouroboros High Command assumes that this vessel is a possible rogue Blood Dragon vessel, unaware or malignantly disobeying orders from the Shogunate or Clan Daimyo.
This is out of both interest in ABH as a friendly business partner and out of interest of Ouroboros assets awaiting transfer to our flagship that are still aboard Tsukihime Laboratories.
However, as per current protocols, command request that you submit payment to cover ammunition - 2 million credits to each vessel should cover expenses for undertaking this operation.
We wish for a peaceful resolution, but as the old saying goes, si vis pacem, para bellum.
