Good afternoon,

Both of you admirals seem to imply that us taking up arms was a choice. It never was. I suppose Admiral Hale is not entirely wrong in his observations, I suppose. We are indeed a group of people left behind by the system. It is indeed that unites us, rather than a narrow political ideology. I do not see that as something that discredits us, quite the opposite.

The Commonwealth is not a political party that wishes to force ideas on others. The Commonwealth seeks to alter that system mentioned before. We are left behind by not simply a slightly imperfect system, but rather one deeply flawed. Admiral Hale, even I am shocked by what you're saying so casually. Are the numerous Legionnaires insignificant to you? Are they not Libertonians? Are they not human beings?

And that's where the Xenos come in. I'll be honest, no, I do not personally agree with their methods, nor with their specific ideals. That's okay, because we aren't Xenos. What we share is that we have been 'left behind by the system'. The Republic's policies are the cause for their existence. We do not share their ideas on how to reform the system and so we haven't merged and never will.

Finally, on peaceful reform, I honest wish that would work. I even tried. However changing the system can not be done using that same system. It does not accommodate that option. Still, I personally always have been trying to stay as peaceful as possible and always will be. Spreading information has always been my favourite tactic. However a legitimate political party, and I did try that mind you, will never be accepted. After all, we have been cast out by the system.

In conclusion, we do not wish for violence, we would love to fight without weapons, but it is the likes of you who left us no choice.

Libera te ex inferis!
