By now you've noticed Auxesian Paramilitary vessels in your territory, stopping and seizing cargo from various vessels or actively purging degenerate elements from the area. Our people are authorized by myself to use whatever means necessary to restore order and seize all technological items of note. Rest assured that we're operating with the best intentions in mind.
You have nothing to fear. Cooperation is compulsory. Just stay out of the way and let us do our jobs. Interfere with The Covenant's mission and you will be dealt with. Severely.

We assume this is related to the attack on Pacifica we registered.
Have you had any information about this attack? There is Auxesia vessels everywhere and if they just do what they please this will undermine our efforts of establishing control on this system fully.
With the LSF pushing into the system we can't afford any further distractions.
The question is for how long? According to intercepted Unioner comms the Auxesian casualties are heavy, which if true, it means this declaration will be rather short-lived. The Unioners also told us that the Auxesians are cooperating closely with LN as well as the LSF. I would thus strongly recommend to take all kinds of precautions during your contact with them.
Luckily the Auxesian forces retreated. But not without giving the Navy and LSF time to push further into Bering. It has been difficult to hold the line and especially the Navy is getting bolder by the minute. Regardless, handing over Bristol to a controlled civilian company has allowed my engineers to retreat and we managed to use the weaknesses in Liberty's defenses to construct a small outpost within Texas.
The installation, at the current moment, has no defenses and only a small fighter wing to defend the installation. To provide a distraction and possibly fuel Liberty's adversaries without attacking the Navy directly we plan to strike Sugarland. We have bomber vessels ready to strike the installation. But to draw full use out of the situation I believe it useful to strike united. Many of those prisoners are bound to have some experience in piloting fighter craft. They would have to be controlled. Firmly. But striking Liberty with a motivated force they don't expect might be a surprise worth the risk.
The Xenos have recently contacted us again, wishing to trade and gain access to Bristol's resources. My command and I are well aware of the risk the Xenos pose. You've warned us before and we have our own experience. Gaining a foothold in Texas that we can use to put pressure on the system after this situation is over takes priority.
I would like your insight on the situation as we have to prove that we are well capable of holding Bering and that we're gaining ground.
You plan to strike the Prison Station Sugarland is a bold one, Admiral. However, if you decide to go through with it, I am afraid we cannot offer direct support. A recent battle in the Leeds system has confirmed what we already thought: the Gallic threat is the most worrisome one. Every blow we deal to the Liberty Navy and the other corporatocratic puppets of Liberty is a favour we are doing to the invaders. Our assets in Magellan are already at risk, and should the Royal Navy seize complete control of California, we would find our zone of operations effectively cut in half.
However, in the eventuality you decide not to go through with the attack of Sugarland, I have a counter-offer for you, Fleet Admiral. During the convoy operation to Malta our two organizations took part in some time ago, we flew through the restricted system known as Thuringia. I remember that place being full of dangers. In the interest of making any future trips easier and safer, as well as gathering intel on our surroundings, I believe we should conduct a joint reconnaissance of the system.
You might be worried about the potential consequences of such an operation. Let me assure you, Miss Knight, we are experts in not getting caught.
PS: If you need any help in securing or supplying your new outpost, we'd be happy to help.
At this time I would like to inform our friends in the Lane Hackers of Admiral Knights stepping down. While her reasons mainly remain her own to carry, she has stepped down from her position as Fleet Admiral and leader of our Battlegroup. Subsequently, the position has come to me as her personal request. As unfortunate as it is to have Knight step down, I believe it is preferential to seeing her fall in combat against the Navy. As such, internal organizational matters are being handled, and we will be in contact soon regarding Galveston Outpost. Despite currently being under construction I have no doubt it will prove of great use to not only us but our allies in the Liberty underground.
If you have any question or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask.
On behalf of the Lane Hackers I would like to congratulate you for your promotion. It was well-deserved and frankly I believe no one can better fill the void of your predecessor than you.
Admiral Knight was an extraordinary woman who did everything to protect the people under her command from false accusers and eventually bring the fight to the enemy by establishing a presence in Bering and Texas. As you'd expect, we would like to ask you about your goals, vision, and the direction that Liberty Separatists are planning to take under your leadership.
As for Galveston, we will be waiting for more details.
