DATE: 14/09/828 A.S SUBJECT: Clash with a Blood Dragon Cruiser in Tottori
Having returned from Sigma-63 after some time spent establishing the first colony, "Zuiryu" returned to its side duty of assisting the law enforcement in Kusari. On our trip to the Tottori system to investigate the newly arrived OSC vessel "Maldives" and its safety we encountered a Blood Dragons war vessel "Kamiziumi". The vessel was of a cruiser or equivalent class. In an attempt to avert a hostility possibly detrimental to Tokai station in the vicinity of which the encounter took place, I made a request that the Dragons vessel took the distance of at least 15 clicks. The Dragon initially complied yet consciously violated the distance subsequently resulting in "Zuiryu" taking action. In short close-range combat, the Dragons vessel was disabled. The fight occurred at a distance of 13-14 clicks from Tokai station and I consider it to be safe from the collateral damage and the debris.
The log of the encounter is attached below.
In eternal servitude to His Imperial Majesty and the Empire of Kusari,
Koushaku Shimamori

[14.09.2021 02:21:12] Zuiryu: Shimamori: a dragon capital vessel near lawful objects.
[14.09.2021 02:21:31] Zuiryu: Shimamori: we will be lenient on you - leave 15 clikcs away and yo uare left to your own business
[14.09.2021 02:21:55] Kamiizumi: Sakura: I never saw the police with a destroyer before. This is quite rare.
[14.09.2021 02:23:13] Zuiryu: Shimamori: this is a Shimamori clan vessel rendering militia services to the state
[14.09.2021 02:23:34] Zuiryu: Shimamori: we assist the police in their job of upholding the peace and stability of the Empire
[14.09.2021 02:23:53] Zuiryu: Shimamori: which is why I would re-iterate the request to take a distance of 15 clicks
[14.09.2021 02:24:05] Kamiizumi: Sakura: Shimamori clan... Never heard about you.
[14.09.2021 02:24:30] Zuiryu: Shimamori: I will not be warmongering where the conflict can be avoided. Yet the security of imperial assets are the priority
[14.09.2021 02:25:02] Kamiizumi: Sakura: Samura can go to hell.
[14.09.2021 02:25:16] Kamiizumi: Sakura: And everything else.
[14.09.2021 02:25:16] Zuiryu: Shimamori: no wonder, we are a smaller clan from Honshu.
[14.09.2021 02:25:37] Zuiryu: Shimamori: your stance towards Samura is of no importance. Take distance or we will take measures
[14.09.2021 02:26:07] Kamiizumi: Sakura: It is not your clan who will order the Hayazaki-Clan.
[14.09.2021 02:26:32] Zuiryu: Shimamori: there were no orders here but requests. So be it
[14.09.2021 02:26:41] Zuiryu: Shimamori: we gave you enough time to take distance
[14.09.2021 02:26:53] Zuiryu: Shimamori: in the spirit of peace
[14.09.2021 02:27:13] Zuiryu: Shimamori: your willful ignoring the request will result in us performing our duty to the Empire
[14.09.2021 02:27:33] Kamiizumi: Ichigo: Bullshit.
[14.09.2021 02:27:58] Zuiryu: Shimamori: what a peculiar name. Don't tell me you are called "strawberry"
[14.09.2021 02:28:24] Kamiizumi: Ichigo: I did not say my name.
[14.09.2021 02:28:37] Zuiryu: Shimamori: good, I can see 15 clicks
[14.09.2021 02:28:43] Zuiryu: Shimamori: keep it that way
[14.09.2021 02:29:00] Zuiryu: //ok, sorry. I thought the prefix before speech means identification
[14.09.2021 02:29:42] Zuiryu: Shimamori: keep distance, dragon.
[14.09.2021 02:29:42] Kamiizumi: Ichigo: Sakura, I say we destroy this one. | Sakura: Alright.
[14.09.2021 02:29:49] Kamiizumi: Ichigo: FIRE!
[14.09.2021 02:29:56] Zuiryu: Shimamori: so be it.
