Sire.

This is a matter of state security, and therefore urgent. Patriots of our movement have discovered considerable evidence over two separate incidents of deep ties between the globalist Gas Mining Guild, our old, shared nemesis, and the revolutionary Socialists of the Red Hessian and Sirian Coalition movements. These ties are not only political, but appear to relate to the GMG’s defence apparatus, and occur under the wilful intent of their guild master.

Attached below is a component of a message received by the Union within the last twenty four hours from the GMG:





For clarity, I will focus on the exact details:

Kon'nichiwa, Mr. Von Himmel

I think it is time to make the Red Hessian Army a bit more of an ally of us. We need someone to punch your faces in Rheinland, with greets from your neighbors. In any case, go on and celebrate a nonexistent event where we slaughtered you, for there are much more to come.

Regards.

Kara Yukari
Guildmistress

The “You”, in this example, refers to the people of Rheinland. No ‘Unioner’ on an organisation level was engaged in direct combat within the war, as our are mostly drawn from the civilian stock of the era. However, this is nothing more than a false talking point, and whilst it revises history and insults the dead, this is not a threat in itself.
Guildmaster Yukari’s willingness to ally herself with enemies of the Rheinlandic state to further her objectives in Rheinland, however, presents a grave problem.

It appears Yukari has fulfilled this threat with action.








These two images, verified by two different Unioner vessels for authenticity, show a Sirian Coalition Revolutionary Army craft, callsign ‘Krsnik’, accompanying GMG defence forces in the vicinity of the late Helgoland Station; now a GMG staging ground. Krsnik is neither engaged in the images, nor were any logs of hostile dialogue between the GMG and the SCRA detected by our Arbeiters. When our forces engaged theirs, Krsnik wasted no time in assisting the Gas Miner’s Guild against us. This is a clear sign of both collusion, and intent to collude, between the Coalition-Hessian alliance, and the GMG. This is not fiction, nor is it kompromat – this is clear, undisputable evidence of conspiracy between globalist and revolutionary socialist agencies.

We strongly advise that the party distributes this information amidst the Bundstag and the intelligence services. Obviously there are inherent political risks involved if the Union publicises the information ourselves. We will keep the Rhein informed of any future developments, and strongly advocate that the Rheinland Imperator publicises the particulars of this encounter (barring the inclusion of our movement, for obvious political concerns), and brings up the subject of the GMG’s adversarial, aggressive stance towards the republic in the coming assizes. It is important that we counter the fake news distributed by the so-called Sigma Correspondence, after all.

Thank you for your time, Sire. We trust that this information will be of use to both you, and the people of the Rhein.

Regards,
Armin Jansen.
First contact representative and Diplomat-in-Chief of der Alster Union, Pacifica Base, Bering.

"It comes to no shock to the Imperial Family of the Guild's hostile actions towards our noble House. To align with the Red Hesse or even the Coalition is a grave threat to the security of our people. Your dedication and loyalty to the people of Rheinland has been noted and I vow to ensure that the Guild answers for these despicable acts. Even now our people within the Imperator have been passed along this information to launch a smear campaign against the Guild and the Imperial Party has lodged an official complaint with the Bundestag over the Guild's acts against the Rheinland Nation.

I will keep the pressure on the Guild politically and through the Imperator shift the Public's opinion against the Guild and their products. The Guild shall find few friends within Rheinland soon enough.


Gott Mit Uns, For Rheinland! "
