Greetings, Field Maestre de Alba:
It's unfortunate to hear what you say, but we knew that this moment could come. I consider that the order to return our gunboats from Delta is correct, now we must focus on the defense of the settlement and supporting the forces of the Phoenix administration of Pygar.
I'll order preparations to begin to evacuate all non-essential non-combatant personnel from Faith Haven, if necessary. I'm also going to talk to Monsignor Patel so that he can contact Livadia Shipyard, to see how the rehabilitation of our colony ship is going. It's a priority to know if we will be able to evacuate our people there, or we'll have to request the help of the Theia, as it was offered to us.
Maestre, it's time to raise our prayers to Deux Machina, and to maintain strength of mind in the face of the adversities that lie ahead. We mustn't forget that Deux helps those who help themselves, so commit your soul to Deux, and do your duty knowing that we're doing the right thing.
