You've constructed your base within an active warzone without notifying Harmony personnel of it's existence. Now it's a definite concern as this base, despite it's non-strategic locale, may be used by enemy forces to strike Harmony.
You have 24 hours to identify yourselves and your purposes, and forward immediate fee of 50,000,000 credits to H|-SNS-Discovery alongside proof of docking rights to all H|- tagged vessels, or this base will be forcefully dismantled.
As we have become aware, this facility is administered by Kruger Minerals, I must say, a simple reply was all that was necessary, as we do not attack Rheinland corporate or lawful entities. Should unlawful forces in the region give you issues, I can try my best to dispatch a response team to your assistance. Naturally, no fee will be required for your installation.

You said that "a simply reply" was all that was necessary. Kruger dont sent "simply replies" to thugs attempting to charge any kind of ransom on our instalations. Instead bowing to wannabe tyrants we prepare our defenses. Thats pretty much the essence of what means being a Rheinlander.
Lets make something very clear from the start: Kruger Minerallien dont negotiate with pirates or terrorists, you threaten us, we defend ourselves.
We estabilished a base in Rheinlandic Space, where Rheinland Military and Rheinland Federal Polizei enforce Rheinland laws.
No line in such laws state that we need ask permission to foreign navies defectors that claim OUR space as theirs.
The needed lawful dealings where under way with the legitimate authorithy over that part of space, and that is Rheinland law.
Threatening destruction of one of our instalations isnt something we take kindly, especialy from someone that we helped in recent past.
We waited for the end of the deadline of your ultimatum to just then answer, as your approach wasnt just disrespectful for someone that are no more than guests, but it clearly shows what your group in fact is: Thugs, criminals, demanding inexistant fees in a space that you dont own.
So, again, more things to be made clear:
- No fee will ever be paid in Rheinland space to anyone else than Rheinland government.
- No docking rights will be given to unlawfuls or terrorists, less even those who openly threatened destructing the instalation.
