The 8th January 820

The Interspace Commerce drops off a demand for ore in Dublin. It was my time to take care of that, so I went on my miner to leave for the fields. Half the way from Essex to the field my sensors spotted a Molly in the BMM field. I sent a warning to the IC customer and moved closer to check what it is.

In the field I met a Molly miner (Hegemon shipclass) and a transport of the OS&C, buying ore from a Molly. Seeing a chance to show a Molly what it means to get interrupted by their enemy I moved in to attack the miner, to clear the BMM field of the hostiles, but sadly I didn’t had any CD’s with me, so he escaped, but the interesting things then started to happen:

The OS&C wanted some ore, no matter who provides it. I checked the BMM network, to download the latest price list, but then I received an interesting dialog between the Molly miner and the OS&C on the local system channel.

OS&C|Ted.Prescot: hmm , oki ill visit goldern coin
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: but dont push us to interfere with your relations in system
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: riley fill up here i go to coin
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: i will move to godlern coin to honour the no fire agreement between mollies and BMM
OS&C |Ted.Prescot: i mean osc ... ups
silent.Miner: ok

At that time I thought that maybe the OS&C isn’t aware of what he might do there, so I stepped in and sent out a warning on the local system channel!

BMM-Bard.Black.: Be aware, that the bretonian government might not be happy about that!
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: dont pull us in your system disputes. If bretonian goverment displeased , let them dispose the mollie base
BMM-Bard.Black.: You are about to buy Ore of a serious criminal group in Bretonia!
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: What about those corrupt goverment officialls who allow those "criminals" to operate ?
OS&C|Ted.Prescot: politics ... bad thing

At that point, it grew above my head, so I contact you, that you might handle that with correct facts, arguments and strength if needed…

And here the uplink to the raw intel:

So here you have the facts and I wish you good luck with the rest, I will return to Graves and stand by for further mining.

Greetings from Bard Black of the Bretonia Mining and Manufacturing

Here I am again.

Early this morning one of the OS&C contacts me about some ore in Dublin.

I did refused to mine for the ally of our enemy in Dublin, but to get some clear information from the BPA) or some Government spokesmen about how to continue with the OS&C would be good.

Greetings Bard Black from the BMM!

Mr. Black,

Thank you for passing this information along. We'll have a word with the directors of Spa and Cruise and see what action needs to be taken. I'll leave it up to you and the rest of BMM to decide whether to sell them ore in the future.

Once again, thank you for this and your continued work for our nation.

Best regards,
Deputy Commissioner Magnus Page
