This is Nakajima Honoka, Commander of Battleship Sapporo of the Kusari Naval Forces. Recently we have been on a patrol thru the Sigma-Systems, with a focus on Sigma-17. Following the Imperial Stellar Codex of Kusari, I-4c, Kusari Naval Forces "reserve the right to carry out patrols and inspections for the sake of the security and interests of the Empire." in systems defined as Zone of Influence. (citation: 1-4c). The systems of Sigma-19, Sigma-17 and Sigma-59 fall under this definition, as per I-4 of the Imperial Stellar Codex.
Unfortunately, this part of the Imperial Stellar Codex collides with the Guild-Laws, specifically 3.2 and 3.3. There has been a point of conflict when we carried out patrols in SIgma-17, to keep an eye on the recent incursions of the maltese forces in the Nemuro Dustfield. To keep the peace, we have for now left the system, however carrying out our patrols is of high importance to us.
I hereby request a license for our vessel, Battleship Sapporo, to carry out our patrols and inspections in the systems Sigma-17, Sigma-19, Sigma-59 and Sigma-13. We do hope for a fruitful cooperation to ensure the security of these systems. We thank you for your time.
