Good evening.

I'll skip straight to the point, since this appears to be real, and I'm honestly not one to take threats to the Battlegroup's, or even Bering's, sovereignty lightly.

At exactly 0926 hours on the day this transmission is going out, what I can only assume is a prank by the 'New Zoner Alliance' was played in the direct vicinity of Freeport 2. A, quote, 'boarding ship' has been placed on the southernmost biodome of the station, violating both Harmony's restriction on protected territory and certainly the Union's claims on the system as well.

I figured you would want to know this, as Harmony will most certainly be taking action, and with due haste.

Sincerely,
Allison Hunter
Battlegroup Harmony

Greetings Miss Hunter,

We thank you for informing us of this violation within our system, under normal circumstances I would have let Bering Cell handle this on their own but an attempted boarding of Freeport 2 also requires Hamburgs attention. I will immediatly dispatch a strike group containing my own flagship from Hamburg to Bering, I have already informed the different Cells I am in touch wiht but cannot give promises if they will come as well.

This "boarding ship" has to be destroyed as fast as possible for the sake of the last remaining stability within the Bering system. It is on us to strike quickly. Also I will suggest the following:

- Until the arrival of our combined strike force increase scouting and interception missions within Bering to prevent any supply vessel to get to the ship and potentially increase its resistance.

- Remaining Unioner forces within Hamburg will patrol the system and intercept anything approaching Bering to further increase the possibility of weakining the enemy before our strike.

Our forces will be gathered in approximately 5 hours from this point, we look forward to fight along side you.

Kind regards,
Alise von Ravensberg,
The Countess of Ravensberg; Leader of the Hamburg Cell.
