Admirality,
At approximately 1708 in the Tau-29 system, I came across a Liberty 'Guardian'-class ship flying Bretonian colors. Presumably, a ship for the Bretonian Intelligence Service. Judging by the interception trajectory, the ship had jumped out from the Baffin system before turning and fleeing away from me. Fortunately, the pilot stopped as I approached her, soon to be joined by her wingman. And in return, I was joined by 'iamthelaw' from the KNF secondary fleet. Therefore, I began interrogating the two agents about their reasons to be in Tau-29, I was only supplied with weak and illogical excuses and reasons, which made me more suspicious.
Unfortunately, my systems went dark for a short while. By the time my ship was back operational, the targets had already cruised away after my wingman had opened fire on one of them to prevent them from running away. I powered up my engines and pursued the targets through other routes to cut them off. Eventually, we arrived at the Gallic-occupied Edinburgh system, where we managed to down one of the agents as soon as I arrived. I set course back to the Taus as quick as possible to avoid drawing unnecessary attention from the Gauls, or any potential Bretonian reinforcements that may have been on the way. Hopefully, that delivers the required message to them.
However, on my trip back, I encountered a Blood Dragon ship in the vicinity of the Tau-29 jump gate in Tau-31. In addition, I overheard ships from the Union Corse calling said Dragons for talks, which indicated that there was possibly a large number of them. Bretonian Intelligence and Blood Dragons in the Taus doesn't seem very coincidental, especially that the Dragons have never shown much interest in that region.
[15.08.2017 20:08:48] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: I suggest you cut your engines, pilot.
[15.08.2017 20:09:08] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Yes, pilot?
[15.08.2017 20:09:56] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: (Static)
[15.08.2017 20:10:01] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Ah. Interesting, an Armed forces vessel with Libertonian equipment in the Taus. Intellignece, right?
[15.08.2017 20:10:27] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Well I'm sure you're aware that Liberty and Bretonia have a lend-lease agreement.
[15.08.2017 20:10:56] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: As to your second question, I can neither confirm nor deny.
[15.08.2017 20:11:29] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: I'll take that as a yes, for the time being. Now, I'm more concernd about what you're doing here in Tau-29.
[15.08.2017 20:12:19] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: I would suggest that that question be referred to the Bretonian Embassy at New Tokyo as I am not at Liberty to answer.
[15.08.2017 20:13:11] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: I'm not here to play politics, pilot. I ask questions, and you answer them respectively. You either do it now, or do it later
[15.08.2017 20:13:14] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: in detention.
[15.08.2017 20:13:34] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: The Naval Forces doesn't tolerate foreign intelligence in its vicinity.
[15.08.2017 20:13:52] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Especially if it's from the Kingdom of Bretonia.
[15.08.2017 20:14:35] [SIS]-James.Skirka: What the hell is this?
[15.08.2017 20:14:59] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: As far as I'm aware, Tau-29 is not within the territory of Kusari
[15.08.2017 20:15:29] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: As such, the conclusion that we are active within the vicinity of the KNF is ... incorrect.
[15.08.2017 20:16:05] [SIS]-James.Skirka: And what Business does the KNF have for holding us up?
[15.08.2017 20:16:33] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: The Imperials can claim what they want, if you're referring to that. Doesn't mean that it can be true.
[15.08.2017 20:16:52] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Has my agent broken any laws?
[15.08.2017 20:17:01] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: The system of Tau-29 has always been a shared territory between the Republic of Kusari and the Kingdom of Gallia.
[15.08.2017 20:17:54] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Your very presence in this system threatens the national security of the Republic. It is fishy for Bretonian intelligence-
[15.08.2017 20:18:06] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: pilots to be in this system, and I want to know why.
[15.08.2017 20:18:20] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You know we can't tell you that.
[15.08.2017 20:18:43] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: I wasn't giving you an option, pilot.
[15.08.2017 20:19:16] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Apologies,
[15.08.2017 20:19:21] [SIS]-James.Skirka: When last I checked, the Republic of Kusari was at peace with the Empire. We wouldn't want to cause a diplomatic incident now.
[15.08.2017 20:19:30] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Would we?
[15.08.2017 20:19:36] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: If you would like to escort us out of the system, we will comply.
[15.08.2017 20:19:54] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: We we're unaware that this was considered shared territory, I'm sure it would better for the diplomats to handle this.
[15.08.2017 20:19:57] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Empire? You mean the Kingdom?
[15.08.2017 20:20:17] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Her majesty is 'Empress of the Tau'
[15.08.2017 20:21:00] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Tch. I doubt your so-called queen even went to the Taus in the first place.
[15.08.2017 20:21:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Fair point. In any case, how can we help?
[15.08.2017 20:21:36] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: If you're trying to fool me by acting like some foolish uninformed agents, you have to try again.
[15.08.2017 20:22:05] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: I doubt any intelligence agency would hire someone who isn't informed intergallactic treaties and agreements.
[15.08.2017 20:22:12] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Quite frankly, we were unaware that your government considered this part of their territory. We have never seen any treaty,
[15.08.2017 20:22:29] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: agreement or document which confirms this to be as Kusari's territory.
[15.08.2017 20:22:40] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: That said, intelligence work doesn't stop at peace, does it?
[15.08.2017 20:22:51] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: So instead of causing a diplomatic incident, let us cooperate.
[15.08.2017 20:23:05] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: We will turn off our weapons, and you can escort us out of this system.
[15.08.2017 20:23:08] iamthelaw: Hold on law breakers
[15.08.2017 20:23:23] iamthelaw: Your stolen goods are now forfeit
[15.08.2017 20:23:32] iamthelaw: And look at that, you do not have enough money to pay the fine
[15.08.2017 20:23:35] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Not before you speak out what you were doing here, or even planning to do.
[15.08.2017 20:23:38] iamthelaw: So you will have to spend some time in jail
[15.08.2017 20:23:50] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Calm down, officer.
[15.08.2017 20:24:05] iamthelaw: Now, it's all over lawbreaker.
[15.08.2017 20:24:37] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: We were searching for the Rousillon jump hole, we were attempting to monitor the activities of Auxesia.
[15.08.2017 20:24:53] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: As you know, there are rumors that their leader is potentially infected by Nomads.
[15.08.2017 20:25:11] iamthelaw: Sheathe your weapons and surrender or be destroyed!
[15.08.2017 20:25:27] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Mind telling this chap to settle down as well?
[15.08.2017 20:25:36] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: As such, Bretonia needs to evaluate the situation in the independent worlds and reconsider our relationship with that -
[15.08.2017 20:25:39] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: organization.
[15.08.2017 20:26:42] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Oh. Don't mind him, he might be suffering from the Lawl's Syndrome, we'll have him checked up soon.
[15.08.2017 20:26:53] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Thank you.
[15.08.2017 20:28:41] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Auxesai doesn't normally operate in the Taus region, how come you think that they may be operating there?
[15.08.2017 20:30:22] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Our intelligence suggests that they have been making erratic incursions out of the independent worlds
[15.08.2017 20:30:37] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: We needed to monitor there movements as a result.
[15.08.2017 20:30:56] iamthelaw: You do not need to be here to do that
[15.08.2017 20:31:04] iamthelaw: Why are you here?
[15.08.2017 20:31:08] iamthelaw: Explain, now.
[15.08.2017 20:31:15] iamthelaw: Your stolen goods are forfeit.
[15.08.2017 20:31:27] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Fine by me.
[15.08.2017 20:32:26] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Auxesia is supposed to be closer to Bretonia than the Taus. Our information suggests that they reside in a system close to
[15.08.2017 20:32:28] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Cortez.
[15.08.2017 20:32:32] iamthelaw: Now pay the fine or go to jail.
[15.08.2017 20:33:03] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: Thank you for the intelligence sharing, our intelligence has also suspected the same for quite some time now
[15.08.2017 20:33:41] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Huh? A bit surprising that you aren't quite aware of that, considering the close relations you two have.
[15.08.2017 20:59:50] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: You shouldn't leave without notice, pilot.
[15.08.2017 21:00:00] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: You are in Bretonian territory. Illegally.
[15.08.2017 21:00:04] [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry: You do not have permission to be here
[15.08.2017 21:00:13] [KNF]'Nobushi'|66th: Last I checked, this was Gallic. [15.08.2017 21:00:38] Death: [SIS]-Adrienne.Perry was put out of action by iamthelaw (Gun).
[15.08.2017 20:51:33] [UC]-Jose.Nivalgo: This is Jose Nivalgo of the Unione Corse, to all ToI vessels in the area.
[15.08.2017 20:51:47] [UC]-Jose.Nivalgo: I would like to meet you. For conversation. Please send me coordinates.
[15.08.2017 20:52:09] {ToI}Imari.Settan: We are currenly unable to assist
[15.08.2017 20:52:27] [UC]-Jose.Nivalgo: Is there something I might help you with?
[15.08.2017 20:52:32] {ToI}Imari.Settan: please contact us via Neural Net
[15.08.2017 20:52:49] [UC]-Jose.Nivalgo: As you wish. Thank you for your precious time.
