Betrayal

[Zero755]

Noah laced her fingers together and rested her chin on them. The Nomads are planning another invasion. And it looks like this time they mean business. She thought to her response, choosing her words carefully. She began her response.

Commodore, what you have told me is, troubling. The colonies barely survived the last run in with the Nomads, and now they are warring with each other as if they werent almost annihilated those years ago. Bretonia and Kusari are both rather weak due to their fighting with each other granted neither would admit it. And Liberty and Reinland are on the brink of open war. So if there was a time for them to strike it would be now. Come in through Tohoku and wipe out Kusari, since all of their military is near the Tau systems. Then it would be a simple thing for them to overpower Bretonia in her weakened state. Liberty would fall next with most of her fleets positioned along the border with Reinland. And then they have Reinland from all sides. It will be a blood bath.

She paused, collecting her thoughts, It seems as though Liberty has a bone to pick with us as well, I thought we were in the middle of cease fire negotiations? Then they sic those Hunter dogs on us? I dont understand it. And now I am fairly certain that the 122nd has known about these ships for some time now. Does the rest of the Order know as well?

I guess what I am trying to say Commodore is: we all signed up to fight the war against the nomads, and this looks to be a pivotal time in that fight. It looks like the 122nd was gearing up for this, but you have sustained heavy losses this day. I would like to transfer the Mistralith to the 122nd, each person on my crew has been hurt by the Nomads in some way, and I know in my heart that they want to do whatever it takes to stop another massacre. And the best place for us to do that is on the point of the spear, the 122nd.

We cant allow the Nomads to push us to the brink again. Lets take this fight to them.

Noah sighed, and sat back in her chair, awaiting Commodore Stewart Chamberlins response.
