Bonjour, monsieurs et madames de la Marine Royale Gauloise.
As scheduled, the Algerie departed from Planet Leeds, under escort back to Gallia in order to effect a combat systems retrofit. The transit to, and conduction of, the retrofit went smoothly -- the Algerie is now appropriately fitted for combat, with the latest weapons, armor, and internal upgrades. The trip back to Sirius was equally uneventful. A lone Bretonian gunboat was apparently attempting to perform cargo interdiction maneuvers within Leeds, but fled once they had caught a glimpse of true power. We are now stationed in orbit near Planet Leeds, and await further direction.
Vive le Roi, vive le Patrie!
