A live feed of a gothic young woman appears on screen. Her clothing is quite eccentric, in particular being the flower-like eyepatch covering her right eye. The background behind her seems simulated to mask the true appearance of her vicinity. She smiles at the viewer and begins speaking gently.


Well, konbanwa~!

It looks like you are receiving this transmission quite late, so I hope you are having a peaceful rest! I'm sure I'm a new face to you. My name is Ubukata Tsuya, and I am the newest addition to the Elder Dragon Council. As such, I have been issued the task of securing an agreement with you. Perhaps you were not expecting a fellow lady from us to be in your presence? Huhuhu~. Anyways, the Dragons have a proposition for you to consider. We realize that things have been shaky between us, and we desire for our alliance to strengthen. We both will still benefit greatly by working together. The Dragon is once more leaving its nest, readying its fire to breathe onto the pitiful Kaigun. This revitalized push would assist you greatly, if you may listen.

Firstly, however, I would like to apologize on behalf of the Shogunate for backing out on the recent siege that took place, as well as apologize for the lack of communication in recent times. A change in management comes with a change in policy, but this does not mean we intend to jeopardize our alliance. Our Shogun wishes to conserve the might of our navy during sieges for bases which are affiliated with or owned by the military forces of the state, A.K.A., the State Police or the Naval Forces. We would be more than willing to assist you in attacking bases which fall under the criteria I just described. Once more, I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Now, let's get into the real reason I'm here! You didn't think this was just an apology, right? Hehe~. Well, our plans have some details yet to be hammered out before full activation, but the groundwork has been created. We have revised old plans to attack Tomioka and various other targets in other Kusari systems to create diversions. The Sisterhood does not have much interest in Tomioka, correct? Despite this, we would like to humbly ask for your support in overtaking the planet. A little push is needed to jumpstart our efforts, and I think it would benefit greatly from a womanly touch! If you have the ladies to spare, we require some additional footsoldiers to be transported to the outpost planetside. We can offer training if necessary to get them adjusted to ground combat. These women will be instrumental in derailing Samura infrastructure on the planet, and in the long run, loosen the grasp of the Kaigun on Kusari by securing Tottori. I would be willing to take care of them if they are uncomfortable with masculine superiors.

In return for your support, we can provide our own through economical and trade support. We would be willing to deliver certain things you need that we have, or can easily obtain. As odd as it seems, the Shogun also mentioned bringing Vodka in particular. Are you a drinker? I sure hope so! It might not be wine, but it can be classy, too. If you would agree to this initial proposition and show good faith, Hakkera-sama may trust the Sisterhood enough to give you shared access codes to one of our capital vessels of your choice. If you can do this for us, we can make arrangements to support you in greater amounts. As a friend of mine when I was on vacation in Liberty once said, "You scratch our backs, we scratch yours!" Of course, if there is another way of support you wish to suggest, or another way you would like to assist us, please specify it and we will give it consideration. Whew, that was a mouthful! I hope you forgive me, I love to go into great detail.


Once she finishes, she seats herself on a nearby "bench" in the simulated environment, and crosses her legs in waiting.


Ubukata Tsuya, Fourth Elder
The Blood Dragons
