Konnichiwa Commodore Robinson,
It is to my honor that you are speaking with us. Your skill in battle is well known.
Thank you for the information about a leak in our Society. I apologize that it has caused you some inconvenience. Where would you like the heads of those responsible to be delivered too?
As to this "Athena.Curvacious". Deal with her as you will. If we do not get to her first.

Commodore,
Thank you for taking the time to deliver your message. We have identified the ship concerned and can confirm that it was indeed stolen, all of the identification codes and call signs match with those passed to us by your agents who have been most cooperative in helping us deal with this situation.
We are reviewing internal security procedures on an urgent basis so that this does not occur again in the future. As for the Athena.Curvacious, please do not hesitate to take terminal action against this ship in which ever way you see fit and with extreme prejudice.
At this point I can offer the assistance of a Hogosha hunting party to claim the ship back, but I'm not sure you would want to see such a party in Liberty and we wouldn't intrude on you without a direct invitation.
Transmission; Start
Identification: Commodore Christina Robinson
Location: New York system, Planet Manhattan, Fort Bragg
General Yarr, The Hand;
I'd rather not have severed heads circulating in Liberty, but thankyou for the offer. If you or your collegues get to the ship first, feel free to claim it back. It was yours, after all. The Hogosha are welcome in Liberty, as long as like everyone else, the law is obeyed. This policy also extends to some of your enemies, so if you do dispatch a hunting party, please do not be sidetracked by individuals such as Golden Chrysanthemums or Bretonian citizens.
Thankyou for your endorsement of our use of lethal force against the crew of that ship. It helps that you see our point of view.
