Lads and Lasses, the interminable argument about whether to maintain Ravenhurst Base is growing to a natural end. In short, the Base is gradually dying due to lack of supplies, meaning that the TAZ are voting with their inaction, the Base is currently at 68% health and declining.
Therefore I propose to remove all goods and cash from the Base within the next 23 hours and transfer the proceeds to the TAZ Bank.
Anyone with an objection who wants to pledge to keep the Base open, please drop me a line here, otherwise she will die peacefully, releasing her energy back into the Sirius ether, albeit somewhat explosively, in the very near future.
There will be an opportunity to witness the event, roast yer chestnuts and drink a glass of wine in honour of the Base when the time is nigh, she has served us well.

I'd say you have a good handle on this. Next time though, get an explanation before destruction. Let's allow them passage so that we can learn something about these.....Zoners.

Kallisti popes and popettes!
After a long time of beeing stuck on Primus, the Deadcat is repaired and runs again through the wideness of the universe. Most of my crew is back again, only Luci isn´t my pilote anymore. Seems she wants to leave us to stay closer to the K´Hara. I have no clue, what is going on with her, nor do i know her plans. She left the ship to buy a small one to live alone from now on. She told me something about a mysterious cult she wants to join. I tried to discuss all this with her but she behaves like a stubborn teen in my view. So i need an experienced pilot for my ship, before we start the next bigger journey.
Let´s hope, that this is only a temporary autonomous behavior. I love her, and i don´t want to loose her forever.
But i have good news too. Dr. Cornelius is back aboard. The Primus One now needs some repair and parts of the hull have to be renewed. So for now i have my old Doctor again.
Also i want to sell the Ariadne to buy a Sabre instead. It looks like i have only one ship at the moment, especially as i have to give Luci the creds to buy, what she needs.
If someone is interested, i will give a party on Pueblo next evening, when Eris gets her dark night face. Whoever wants to join, You are welcome. Drinks, drugs and food for free!

I will be returning to my home on Canaria for a bit as I have some things to do there and quite honestly, I need the unwind time. I have left the station on an anonymous shuttle so as that no one can track me.
When I do get settled, I'll be upgrading the medical facilities on Shasta and I'd like to discuss making a small base to do some research work, research that I wouldn't do on station. But, that is a conversation for another time.
1st:
The Gallics have seemed to have broken their own agreement with the TAZ. While witnessing an engagement near Freeport 4 with Pope McMillan, Gallic primary fleet pilots first threatened and then fired upon TAZ vessels. I have enclosed my ships log, though my evidence cam was offline due to technical issues.
Code:
[09.03.2014 07:48:18] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: The rest, finish off the zoners.
[09.03.2014 07:49:15] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: You need a little lesson in warfare honor, Zoner.
[09.03.2014 07:50:09] [TAZ]Prometheus(A): Jason: You really want to start another conflict?
[09.03.2014 07:50:37] [TAZ]FrostBlade: Gaunt: i say, this is most unpleasent. i thought we had settled the problems between TAZ and the gallics
[09.03.2014 07:51:10] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: Understand this.
[09.03.2014 07:51:13] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: Your neutrality is not a shield.
[09.03.2014 07:51:16] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: You live because we allow it.
[09.03.2014 07:51:31] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: You'd do well to remember that, for what is given can be taken away.
[09.03.2014 07:53:31] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: Consider this another lesson in humility, Zoner.
[09.03.2014 07:55:21] GRN|Lucie,LeBlanc: I wonder why you have not learned your lesson yet.
[09.03.2014 07:55:35] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: You'll see us in baffin shortly, zoner.
This part is of most concern: [09.03.2014 07:55:35] GRN|Ansel.Xavier: You'll see us in baffin shortly, zoner.
I suggest that we contact our friend and ready our defences just in case.
Secondly:
A member of the LN, Hudson Ravis, attempted to impede our escape once the Gauls targeted us by firing several cruise disruptors at us. I can only assume that he planned to escape by leaving us for the gauls. This is a very concerning move on the part of a liberty primary fleet member.

Hello popes.
Indeed, as what pope Gaunt stated above, the Gauls threatened us. They have fired multiple cruise disruptors at my ship the Prometheus, giving me another month of work covering up the burns on the paint by repainting it.
I also witnissed this... Libertonian firing multiple disruptors at Pope Gaunt. He kept going on even once i said that he had to stop it.
All the best to ya,
Jason McMillan
This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Kallisti, Brothers and Sisters,
For some time now, I have been on the surface of Crete which is where this secure transmission comes from. It was my effort here to research terraforming, to help the Empire become less dependent on raiding food sources and to assist their problem of starvation. While I've collected many samples of soil, air, water and so forth here in a mountainous area of Crete with some fertile growing area, I've become convinced that the Corsair Empire cares little about helping themselves.
My communications have gone unanswered and a promised contact never arrived. Therefore, I will be finding home by morning's light. Within a few days, I should be back to Baffin.
John, I have some things I'd like to run by you. I'll see you when I arrive.

I received this transmission regarding the obtaining of a Leviathon class warship and use of our facilities in which to build it. It might be a good opportunity for TAZ.
What do you think?
