I hope that this message will find you in good health, as our meeting in Hokkaido has been interrupted rather abruptly. I've decided to humiliate these very unpleasant KNF officers by letting them chase me for several systems, while giving them false impression of a near success, just to leave them way behind in the end while laughing. This is how Liberty has shaped the Lane Hackers. While being notoriously outnumbered and at disadvantage, we had to learn how to strike unnoticed and then disappear in the shadows.
The encounter with KNF forces in Hokkaido in addition to the chase itself has provided me with a lot of intelligence regarding their tactics, mode of operations and available manpower. Surprisingly, KNF has shown incredible battle-flexibility, being able to quickly withdraw unnecessary ships and replace them with appropriate forces. Our analysts will continue to dig through gathered data to provide us with some valid counter-tactics. We will be happy to share them.
Now let me express my happiness that the Golden Chrysantemums are regaining their former position in Kusari. I had the pleasure to personally meet Okasan Amaya Tanaka over a year ago, shortly before the unfortunate events which affected your sisterhood so badly. As you may know, we had performed several operations together. I attach you archived logs, if you wish to know the specifics.
Finally, I would like to ensure you that our cordial relations from the past have not been forgotten. Your ships are still warm welcomed at our bases, and we hope that this feeling is mutual. I also hope that we will be able to meet soon in order to discuss more details concerning our cooperation.
