I'm aware this transmission may come as a surprise to the vast majority of you. No doubt the last thing you expected was a semi-friendly transmission from your 'sworn enemies', but I'm of a mind that we can actually try to do good for each side.

My name is Colonel Maria Cortez. I am more or less the official spokesperson for the Seventy-Second Fleet of Malta, a group of primarily ex-Maltese Navy pilots and scientists working to put an end to the extensive threat of the Nomads. Seeing as how the people of Crete share our dislike for the K'Haran force, and are more or less our kin in terms of original genetic makeup, we felt it was only natural to contact you on the grounds of possible cooperation against this threat.

I wish the Council a good day, and many victories.

I'm pleased the Council took the time to respond. I was certain you'd have questions, which I have done my best to prepare for. To that end, and speaking for the Commander as he himself would likely be answering the comm if able, I will provide you with the clarification you desire.

Firstly, we are to a degree. The Fleet maintains within it's ranks that personnel are free to chose Stabiline over Cardimine should they desire. Those who prefer cardimine are free to use it, but exposure to those who desire to stay free is absolutely prohibited.

Next, attempts were made, yes, to reverse cardimine addiction. The first was pioneered by our own Randall Santiago, but eventually proved far too risky to continue. At this point, we're relying on stabiline to provide use for those among us who desire to become clean.

For those who do require it, however, we procure ours from Rogue, Lane Hacker and Junker installations across Sirius. It's not perfect, but the strategy works and keeps our people from dying.

Finally, and most honestly, the Fleet is not concerned with 'liquid orange'. The Fleet, as opposed to the majority of the Maltese population under the Nation Council, sees the Nomads as a real threat to Sirius and fights them for the continued existence of humanity as a species. Most of us have lost friends and family to the invasion, and have motivation to see that their acts are rebuttled fully.

I hope this has provided you with what information you needed. As with before, I wish the Council the best, as well as many victories.
