Title: Untitled.

Well it's been almost a week since my last entry, so I suppose I should write an update. The Rogues that I had contacted about those turrets seem to have forgotten about me. I haven't heard back since I sent off that request.

No matter. I'll just go down to Dublin myself and poke around the Mollies a bit.

The Mollies are actually not that dissimilar to the Xenos in how they came about - being down-trodden by the resident corporations before finally cracking and going radical. But it must be said their ideals are certainly far more romantic than their Libertarian counterparts.

I've had some cordial dealings with them before, so hopefully someone will recognise me and let me get my foot in the door. I'm sure they will appreciate a Scylla showing up out of the blue. If everything goes my way I might be able to help them get rid of some of those Corsairs who have invaded my Homeland.

I keep tolerating all these pirates and terrorists as a professional courtesy, but honestly it is rather satisfying to make the odd Corsair or Outcast... go away... whenever one finds themselves alone with me. I don't like Cardamine, I don't like Slave traders and I don't like genocidal pirates. In general I don't like anyone descended from the Hispania. Such a pity they have to be so achingly beautiful.

Even someone living in the underbelly of their Homeland still has some pride in it. I'm proud of my heritage and it makes me sick to think of what the Corsairs are doing there. If they were just smuggling in their Artifacts and disappearing with Junker-bought supplies it wouldn't be a problem. But nuking all and sundry without any concern for the lives they are destroying simply makes my blood boil.

I'm guilty of knocking off a few transports in my time, I can admit that. But in all the times I've done it I've never had to kill any civilians. I prefer to target corporate transports, because nine times out of ten the crew don't give a rat's arse about the cargo and just want to get away with their lives intact. That way, everyone wins - except the company. But no-body cares about their well-being, mainly due to the fact they have no care for their own employees' - which is the very reason the Mollies exist.

The Mollies have a much more romantic agenda - Gaining sovereignty of the Dublin System. Killing civilians isn't on their priority list - not to say they are completely innocent of that of course, but they are still much more agreeable than, say, Corsairs.

I'm going to be floating down to Dublin and cleaning house a bit. This should be interesting. Hell, I might even run into mum again. Last I heard she's still hanging around Bretonia in that clapped-out hulk of a Clydesdale.

The Maelstrom is prepped and ready to launch on what will be her longest flight since her resurrection - To Arranmore. Alsatia will be flown by Misaka with the White Devil and the Bomber escorting us.
