Miss Hawken.
Hold onto your proverbial horses please I ask of thee. For a moment in our speck of existence together let us put the guns and knives and pixie sticks down, and talk. I'm not Finn McCool. And as you stated you're not your predecessors. I'm not the one making threats here but please don't try to push this off to a wrongful start. I'm tired of both of our respected factions loosing the lives of so many for such petty squabbling. You say you are a group of well trained Military individuals, but from what I've seen on the Gallic front in Western Sirius the Core is a child compared to them. So lets get the bull back in the pen so we can clean the stall out. While we of the Confederation of Freeports do work alongside Administrators of other Zoner installations, we are not, and I repeat, are not their ruling body. Also. Why did the Core loose Dabadoru in the first place if you are as highly trained as you say? I find such to be a bit odd.
Now then. I personally request to see the information upon acts in which those of the Zoner community in the Omicrons have attacked Civilians. This is something that even I will not accept.
To you demands on Freeport 11. The first two are steep but I'm afraid such cannot be deemed acceptable, even with our positive stance with Interspace Commerce. I don't believe they would find such a venture deep in the Omicrons to be a profitable venture with such hazards being faced like the Corsair populace and those of Nomadic intentions and we cannot grant full access to your superiors and such full ownership of the station. But... On terms of dismantling the station. Perhaps we can arrange something alongside the Core's colonization of Yaren under a joint venture instead of the station being in the middle of deep space. Yes?
Now to the other requests.
First. I might as well be telling you to end all research and development associated with Nomadic materials or let alone ship building in exchange but lets be frank neither will happen in such. There's no point in such a discussion of such an extreme as there are quite a few of the populace in the Omicrons that work as hard as they do mining in the depths of space. I wont be responsible for telling them they have to look for a new line of work. I simply will not. So the answer is no.
Second. I think we can agree to most of this request with exceptions to those of possible humanitarian crises that may arise in the future. If possible could you send me a copy of your laws in which I may find a few exceptions to, otherwise I think we can agree to this in some extent rather than not.
Third. Work with me in the above issues peacefully and I believe this will no longer be of an issue. Peacefully Miss Hawkens for both Zoners and the Core. Not one over the other.
Miss Hawken, you can be as intimidating as you wish towards me, but don't think for a moment I wont use what you say or how those of the Core act against the Zoner populace in the Omicrons if the need arises. Be mindful though. Unlike Finn McCool. I have quite a lot more people I can rely on to assist me in making either the Core's life a near utopia. Or a living hell. By Eris I mean every word in that.
Now what's it going to be Miss Hawken? Do we want to keep history repeating over and over, expecting something to change, until nothing of us remains but shadows, dust and floating scrap in the bowels of space for eternity... Or are we going to change things into a peaceful accord for all of us?
