I'll keep this short. I don't have a lot of time, as I'm dealing with the fact that one of Aethelu's little relics has gone rampant.
' Wrote:Which brings me to the big questions.
Why does Hellfire Legion attack Liberty Rogues?
Why does Hellfire Legion attack Outcasts?
Why does Hellfire Legion attack Junkers?
Why does the Hellfire Legion ally itself with Xeno Terrorists?
Does the Hellfire Legion regret the attack on Lane Hackers on the basis of piracy? Will this now be a recurring phenomenon?
Do you insist that Lane Hacker Alagar must not enter the Vespucci system?
If that list of yours still stands, what other Lane Hackers have you decided to prevent from entering the Vespucci system and for what reason(s)?
The Rogues are an unruly bunch. They're unpredictable, they're violent.. At least with Sylpheed, they were somewhat organized. We could work with that. Now? They're just a liability.
The Outcasts are nothing but a plague on Liberty. They bring no benefit, only more of their damned drug. If we don't deal with them, soon enough they'll have the entire house, including your own organization, under their thumb.
The Junkers? Almost every Junker port in Liberty is a hub for everything from drug smuggling to full-blown piracy. They may not be part of the cause of Liberty's decline, but it certainly isn't helping.
Because the Xenos share common goals with the Legion. We are both working for a better Liberty. Their methods may be ... questionable at times, but their hearts are in the right place.
If it meant not having to deal with this, then yes. As for it being recurring... Unlikely, but the possibility remains.
No.
None.
And 'suspension' usually means exile.
Alan Markson closed the message terminal with a scowl, and then deactivated the privacy fields around him. The bridge of the massive Spyglass-class vessel was a bustle of activity as officers and crew members preformed their duties. The ship's XO looked up at Markson, coming to attention with a swift salute.
"Orders, sir?"
Markson gave the man a simple nod in response.
"Prepare to move out. Get a fix on the last known location of the Incursus ..."
The lights on the bridge slowly dimmed as the crew began preparations for the orders they had been expecting for a while.
"... And take us into jump."
