Comrades of mine from the SCEC have reported a potential infectee, flying with your IFF codes, naturally I found this worth mentioning as it is more than obviously a cause for concern. The suspected entity's name is "Megaera" according to my Comrades and she has, on record, had cordial conversation with one of the blue beasts themselves, I have coupled the relevant transcript to this message.
This individual should be quarantined and questioned post-haste if she really is affiliated to you. The Nomad Bomber-craft known as "Aspu" was terminated, I personally made sure of it.
Code:
Megaera: Hmm hello
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Hmm?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Reading non-Coalition signatures
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Well now, you are bold pilot.
Megaera: ho so?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Its understandable, trade lanes provides some type of configurating spacetime matter field
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: hail, if friend.
Megaera: Should I be worried?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: It is not best to sneak up on people in these parts.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: not, if you have no ill intentions, comrade
Megaera: Well it is just me
Megaera: Your group I never met before
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we are reading your Blood Dragons IFF. They are trusted allies of the People of Coalition
Megaera: It malfunctions
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: It is my duty and the duty of my crew to ensure the safety of this expedition Doctor.
Megaera: Yesterday it read outcast
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: To create this field House definitely used some high-energy emmiter points
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: I will be watching you closely Freelancer.
Megaera: I am a friend of blood dragon though
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: at any rate - don't interfere with our surveying process and we'll be fine
Megaera: My sister is Sakurai augus
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Your sister?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: a famed name, indeed. A friend of our friend is our friend
Megaera: yes
Megaera: But I am more a wanderer
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Anybody can say she sister of somebody wellknown
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: be welcomed to stay, although this place can hardly be called "hospitable"
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: That is for sure.
Megaera: I know
Megaera: Almost all people that fly these parts want to kill me
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: aspirant, can you try to examine this ruins in close?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: I examine it right now
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: aliens, infested Order, fanatic core, what else do you expect?
Megaera: Well yea
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we are interested if there is any electronics of some sort in these...tings
Megaera: And order
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: from what we know about Tradelane technology, it relies heavily on sophisticated electronics
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Sinse we dont end analyzes of inner structure of Delta ruins we dont know how perform observations of its inner systems
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: the Coaliton still lacks tradelane technology and the findings can be... marvelous
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we shall penetrate a hole in the structure for you, aspirant
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Though that technological gap is ever decreasing be assured of that.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: powering up frontal guns
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: It can be on structural level
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: breach - successful
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: anything to be extracted?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Megaera, hmm... why does that name ring a bell.
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: I mean, topography of crystalline can be system itself
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: these technologies seem to be too complex for us
Megaera: I am pretty known sadly
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Nothing to observe
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Its looked abandoned
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: I concur with you, aspirant. It must be embedded in the structure itself
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: if that is a tradelane, it must lead somwhere
CPW-Indigirka: Gena :i'll be patrolling nearby
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: let us check where to
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Probably all valuable components what be in structure cavityes was extracted/used/absorbed by structure
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: another component
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: I guess its "going to rabbit hole?"
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: proceeding further. Let's see how deep the rabbit hole is
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: On another end can be some valuable
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: .... What happened...
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: My head...
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Get signature readings
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: what...the...hell
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Its... too big
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: CPW - cover us, we proceed on
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: And..look on signatures readings.. its still active
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Copy That Kardashev.
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Is it even active...
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: looks like a jumpgate.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: the data we have obtained on the nomad war in 800-801 claimed there was something similar
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: That is now Jump Gate, that is the passage to hell...
Megaera: I advice you not to enter it
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: When we use jumpgates and holes,ships systems perform some field configuration which activate it, we can try activate it and
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: read signals
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we believe it is best not to jump
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Oh, its active
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Write signals!
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Only the damned enter that... they do not return.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: writing...This is incredible!
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we shall commence material examination
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Aspirant - send probe inside
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: I believe, we can receive the data from it for a few miliseconds
CPW-Indigirka: Gena :What's on the other side?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: I guess readings completely same as Houses generated wormholes?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: The devil himself...
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: You are all communists!
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: I do not like this Doctor, I caution against it.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: jumping inside without necessary preparations can be too dangerous
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: We dont belive in devil, you are shoud be ashamed
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we can not risk People's assets without cautious preparations
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: I believe, it was a figure of speech
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: My mother's "supersitions" can be hard to shake, she was Bretonian.
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: But i agreed i dont want see what on another side
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Sending probes
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: By myself of course
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: any readings?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: is the signal similar to Houses' jumpgates and/or jumpholes?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Only one image, and high energy readings in ends
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Yes,way through wormhole has same signatures pattern
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: well, we are not expecting the probe to return...
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: That would be a leap in faith too far.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: similar to "tradelines" we can't trace anything resembling electronics
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: But it definitely use another energy supply for creating it, its bigger and create more powerful and stable line through space
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: topology
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: don't worry, "Korolev", we shall request from the HCSTA to allow us to convene an expedition inside
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Copy that.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: if the HCSTA approves, we will see if there is a "devil" on the other side
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: If so I will bring my guns to bear on the beast.
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: And shout on it if that needed
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: i assume, we will require the assistance of local zoners and freelancers
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: I believe, it is time for us to leave for good
Megaera: the zoners are too busy in these parts
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Ah, i forget about she
Megaera: How can you forget about me?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Hostiles signature
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: hostiles signatures
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Not for long it isn;t.
CPW-Indigirka: Gena : Contact
Megaera: Well I am a friendly hostile
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: have they been spying on us?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Looks like "Nomad"aliens
Megaera: hmm
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: yes, the signature patters are same as those of other specimen
Megaera: Hello
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: remain on guard
Megaera: Darklings are leaving
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Dont know i dont read any signatures of nomad technology on ship of this women
Megaera: No threat to 'hara home
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: aspirant, start analysis of movement patterns
CPW-Indigirka: Gena : Could not scan but the ship was small
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Dr.Belov, to hell analyses, it women speak with specimen
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we read it as a specimen similar to one we encountered today in O delta
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: But i dont read any patterns like wild
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: A "bomber" type
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: You should not try and get to friendly with that... thing.
Megaera: They dont like you being here
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Friendly?Same thing kill transport full of civilians
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: when the small ones appear, the bigger ones usually follow
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: We lost Evgeniy on this mission
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: this indicates it is time for us to live
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: *leave
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Then we should be rid of that thing quickly and leave.
Megaera: If you shoot they will open fire
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: negative, "Korolev". It is too small for us to capture it
Megaera: Right now you can still go
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: security of the data obtained is our utmost priority
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Oh for god you are communicate with them?
Megaera: ye
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: My head still ached from last contact,what wrong with you
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: you are walking on thin ice, Megaera
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Beware what you say in the next few moments Freelancer.
Megaera: hmm
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: I am only fond of Human company here.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: today you are communicating with the, tomorrow you are worshipping them, and the day after - infected by them
Megaera: I dont intend on that
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Indeed.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: commecning jumphole protocol
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Seems like if they want infected her, they would do it freely
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: ressuply at Freeport-11
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: What the hell in this omicrons, we need report all to comissariat
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: It is following us...
Megaera: I am not an it
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: ignore the hostile
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we still have another place to investigate
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: but first - refuel
Megaera: And I am friendly too
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Indrigirka get away from that... thing.
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: I dont hear before,what some humans contact with nomads by their will
Megaera: Why the sudden hostility?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: what is the status?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Moving the Korlev into a defensive pattern along the Freeport Perimeter.
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: That... thing still follows.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: copy that, "Korolev".
Megaera: Oh I thought you meant me all this time
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: May be they study us as we do it?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Then that blasted thing can study the barrels of this ships forward guns.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: if you are sure about your capabilities to put it down - see no reasons against.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: yet, our capital vessels have limited capabilities to assist you
Apsu: Megaera: What is the Coalition doing here?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: None of you concern, Freelancer.
Megaera: Studying your technology to mimic house tech
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: it seems we have weird stuff going here
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Firing off a warning shot... maybe that will scare it off.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: this "freelancer" might be infected
Megaera: I am not
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: How can we be sure of that.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: is spoke throu you. Care to explain how?
Apsu: Dr. Belov: Can you give me a preliminary mission debriefing?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: It imitates!
Megaera: se?
CPW-Indigirka: Gena : I think it likes my ship
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: it seems it is a sort of mimicing
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: God, it not imitates...
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: it was directly from kardashev post
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: You dont feel nothing?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: I remember not losing control over myself
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: this is a new pattern behaviour for smaller species
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: CPW-Indigirka I would advise from approaching too close to the Alien.
Apsu: Gena: Maybe we should just tell it what we did in Minor.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: aspirant Shweik, are you recording this?
Megaera: It probally just mimics
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: yes..we can later extract all our bort recordings and compare
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: CPW-Indigirka, report. Did you lose control over yourself?
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: or is it just mimicing us?
CPW-Indigirka: Gena : no im fine
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: i assume it might be that pattern of telepathy they used previously
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Firing off another warning salvo... gunnery crews ready.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: but now they communicate in our own vocal patterns
CPW-Indigirka: Gena: it seems to me it is harmless
Apsu: Gena: We should communicate with it.
Megaera: Some communicate in diffrend ways
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Only i feel this terribly headache?Or it from injures in corsairs battles
Megaera: Kessereya almost uses a human speech
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: expedition, your thoughts on whether we should continue surveying
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: I belive, our further operations can reveal our intentions to them
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: I will follow your lead doctor.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: therefore, we should scrap the remaining objectives for later
Apsu: Antonov: What intentions do you mean, Dr Belov?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Yes, we can only destroy it to hide our purposes or retreat without any violence
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we had intel on another place of interest nearby
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: but now we should refrain from visiting it
Megaera: what place?
Apsu: Antonov: What place of interest?
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Not interested for you i suppose
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: it...is...difficult to resist its interrogation
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: moving to Omicron Kappa
Tip: Are you new to our server? Introduce yourself on our forums in the Welcome Section @Discoverygc.com
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: CPW "Indigirka", report
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: any threats to your vessel?
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: If it follows us into one more system, my hand will be forced. We cannot afford for integrity of expeditionary vessels
CPW-Korolev: to be comprimised.
CPW-Indigirka: Gena : I follow you
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: copy that
Apsu: Megaera: I wonder if I can remember what I saw the Coalition do in Minor.
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Let us now wait.
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Gunnery crews ready weapons, feed power away from engines.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: let us wait for everyone
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Indigirka is here. Aspirant Shweik, return immediately
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: 20 sek
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: We all seem to be here.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: proceeding to Corinth station
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: Moving the Korolev into rear position.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we need to share some intel with zoners and inquire about their possible participation in our suicide mission
Megaera: wait for me
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: The infectee follows us?
Megaera: I am not infected!
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: i belive, she is not infected indeed
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: This woman's ship not contain any piece of nomad tech
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: If you say so.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: that might have been an attempt of aliens to saw discord among us
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: But she in some strange unity with them
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: yet, her motives remain unknown
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: agreed, apirant
Attention! Stand clear. Towing SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: There is some sense in that notion.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: Moving to Omicron Theta
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: final destination - Kamchatka station
Megaera: *sips sake* think I lost them
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Good luck, freelancer. Better stay away from those aliens
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: We definitely must make report for comissariat
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we surely will
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: And i mean not HCSTA
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: yes, indeed
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: High Command can benefit from this report as well
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Below: coordinates for Kamchatka station are set
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Tak tochno. Begin recognaisance of path
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: report on any suspicious activity in the system
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we have made it alive out of there. Another victory for the People!
SCEC|Anton.Shweik: Clear. For now
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: And to my sanity... that place... it is unnatural.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: it is indeed
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: we are nearly here
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: secuting the data
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: data - secured
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: excellent job, comrades
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: the base staff reported unsual activity in the system
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: too many unidentified objects
CPW-Korolev: Antonov: I might as well moor the Korolev here, I have matters to attend to aboard. Proshchal'nyy Privett Doctor Belov.
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: be warned, they regularly have patrols of these abominations
CPW-Indigirka: Gena: I'll check everything 30 km from the station
SCEC|CPRV-Kardashev: Dr.Belov: Farewell, Antonov.

"Knowing Humanity - We will be duty, bloody and unavoidable."
Your concern is understable, but i can confirm the word spoken by Megaera - she is my sister in honor, a sole wanderer with anything but not the hostile intentions towards the people habitating Sirius, that treats Okinawa as her home since not too long ago; Ishikawa Masako-san is our trusted friend, and is always welcome on the territory of the Blood Dragons. Sirius-wide she tends to have some bad fame, but most of the individuals actually looking for her - caused the misunderstanding on their own, and they are the only ones to blame for this.
As a conclusion - i would prefer you to treat this person at least neutral - she poses no threat for your operations in any way.

You seem to have a personal attachment to this person, Daimyo. But if you are going to ask me to treat her as anything other than an infectee after going through the transcript, then you will need to scan her for an incubus and furnish me with the result.
Take chances for no one, trust but verify.

This is indeed concerning news, the transcripts alone are more than enough reason to doubt the honesty of your sworn sister Sakurai. I understand that you have a close connection with the pilot in question. I wish to investigate this personally and further. Daimyo Augus, please initiate a direct communication between this "Megaera" and I.

Greetings, whoever you are.
I see you took the liberty of contacting my associates.
But before that... First things first.
This following certificate attests that individual under name “Lady Megaera” - true identity could not be established at current time - holding position of a non-aligned Freelancer is confirmed free of alien infestation and/or contamination. Screening was enacted by The Order Specialists on explicit wishes of Heung Hideyoshi, Treasurer of The Blood Dragon Shogunate.
⧫ Date of screening: 13th February 825 A.S.
⧫ Notes: Indication of minor, non-life threatening brain tissue damage. Possible cause could be linked to oxygen deprivation. Recommending further study at neurological department.

I hope you are happy with this information, because it is going to cost your dearly.
Now to the real issue at hand...
I gave myself permission to track you down using the data you sent, so now you will be dealing with me.
Your men were a long way from home and the only thing that kept them from being shredded by the alien armada was me.
A little gratitude was in order...
Instead I get this. You meddled in my affairs.
Do this again and I will use your skin as wallpaper.
Do we have an understanding?

I would strongly suggest that you advise your honorable sister against making such provocative statements, there are many who would not merely ignore it out of respect for our relations and would treat it as a threat.
My job is not one that garners admiration or respect, but her behaviour certainly does not make this any easier, I am glad to be wrong, but I could not have taken any other action than the one set out before me. It is far better to be certain.
I will ignore this theatric out of respect for Daimyo Augus and only request that she have her sister in honour not put herself in the way of Coalition operations, if she does, my hands are bound in the weaponised bonds of duty and it will be an obligation that I will have to discharge.
That will be all.

"Knowing Humanity - We will be duty, bloody and unavoidable."
You made a very serious accusation that proved to be false. Although the Shogunate itself holds no relationship with this "Megaera" it stands to reason that anyone would be offended when being inflicted with such criticism. "Megaera" is not of our ranks, so you can assume that they will do as they please, we are not responsible for their actions. If you believe otherwise then I would suggest escalating this event as I do not believe you to be of proper rank to discuss matters of diplomacy. I can, however, confirm that the record of screening is genuine and that I no longer see this pilot as a threat to the Kusarian peoples and thus this appears to be solved.
Your respect for our structure and way of life is noted and appreciated, furthermore, you should be praised for your willingness to stand alone for what you believe to be true. These are honourable traits, aspired to by many dragons, however, the fight here is done. A question was asked and an answer was given, if you wish to continue this back and forth, please do so on a channel where I am not present.

With the political landscape of Sirius constantly shifting and changing, along with the morals of our enemies, the Coalition is due a revision of its policies in certain Houses such as Liberty. The reason why I have chosen to contact you about a House adjacent to the one you are currently fighting against should become apparent as I explain it.
The iron fist doctrine of the Coalition was an effective tool to beat the Alliance into a retreat, but we no longer fight the true Alliance. We fight their splinters and their assorted underworld opposition. A single front that has become two highly contrasting theaters of war, expensive and hard to effectively counter.
It is for this reason that I have been recently authorized to pursue more non-traditional pacts with certain groups in certain areas of interest, such as Liberty. While I might have connections in Rheinland, Bretonia and to an extent even Gallia, I do not have this luxury in Liberty. I am therefore requesting for the aid of the Blood Dragons in establishing a diplomatic channel with a member of the Libertonian underworld, one I can reason with and ensure both our interests are being met.
I understand the weight of this request, but I believe it is a fair exchange for the assistance that I have rendered in the past. After-all, you would only be facilitating a talk, I would not ask you to bind yourself to any repercussions, if we are going to win the war against the spawns of the Alliance here in Sirius, our M.O must change from what it was in Sol.
This can happen only with your help, establishing contact myself would likely be lengthy and come with justified suspicion from the groups in Liberty. Therefore I will have to rely on our friendship, as always, we will seek to further your interests even beyond the Kusarian border were you to grant me this request.
The time you have spent listening to this is appreciated.

I will speak directly: indeed, we do have an opportunity to provide you with such contacts of 'Liberty Underworld', with the group known as Lane Hackers. However, before we pass them any word of a possible treaty with a trustworthy person - we would like to know more about your intentions: they would serve as a viable proposition to convince our allies to give you a proper response.

Daimyo Augus,
Your tenacity and candour are admirable. What I seek can be encapsulated as follows, since you have mentioned the "Lane Hackers" as a contact, they will serve as the example for my clarification.
What I seek:
Is to primarily ensure House Forces suffer losses, doing so would require a degree of mutual understanding between us and the unlawful forces of Liberty, to whom I am ready to extend an offer of assistance in fighting against the same.
What I will provide in exchange:
As I previously stated, I will ensure targets that are considered mutually despicable, such as House Military and so on are met with stiff retaliation, I will however, abstain from targeting any shipping vessels, as I understand these transports to be a source of income and a lifeline. The extent of this can be further clarified once direct contact is established. I will likely only request freedom to freely terminate ships that would deal in artifacts and slaves.
The "intimate" relations between the Lane Hackers and Malta is no secret, and what the Hackers choose to do to their own bodies is their choice, their cardamine dependence does not concern me and is not my problem. Therefore, despite my personal hate for the substance, I will ignore transports that seek to supply them with the aforementioned substance.
These terms should be reasonable, if they are not, then I will certainly find out.
