Subject: The Time Has Come
[Within several smaller cities on Malta, a live feed appears on each marketplace advertisement screen, catching the attention of citizens walking past buildings and shops. The transmission ripples with static, a dark orange hue overlapping the outline of a man. He leans in forward, wearing a standard outcast pilot uniform and appearing to be roughly thirty.]
You deserve better.
[He pauses and sighs.]
When did we surrender?
[Some people viewing the transmission on the streets looked at each other confused.]
When did you, the Outcast nation, kneel before your dons, extend out your hand, and surrender your souls to the highest bidder?!
[He pauses again, seemingly agitated.]
Didn't they promise you leadership? Didn't they promise you wealth and prosperity? Didn't they promise you.. security?.. Tell me Malta, where are the 101st? The National Council? Where are the dons when you need them most? When your children are sick and hungry your leaders bicker and squabble over who get's the bigger field of cardamine!.. Is this truly what you surrendered your lives to?..
[The man's demeanor changes to outright angry.]
WE are the nation of Malta! Are we not better than this?! Look around! Are you content with your lives!? Will you slave away day in and day out for these dons these leaders these TRAITORS to Malta!? They keep the wealth from you, they sit in their villas atop their buildings atop their cities ATOP THEIR HILLS! While you work on the ground, EVERY DAY! The cardamine has become a part of you, while these families of "royalty" dabble in DEGENERACY - They spend their money on alcohol and items of foreign nations, ignoring and disrespecting the ground we stand on!
But not you. Not the good people of Malta. You understand it. You feel Malta's life-force flow through you. It is a gift, in fact, to be so close to the ground.. To love it. To feel it's pain, as it feels yours.. every day as you work..
The time has come. The dons are fat, old, lazy degenerate liars. You, the hardworking, Malta-loving people, are the blood of this great nation! No longer will i surrender myself to the whim of men that known nothing of hard work on the ground. No longer will i allow these people to plague our beloved Malta with their vile ideologies, bringing peace and neutrality with the world around them.. we all know that is what they want.. so they can sit and be rich and fat, while the people become poorer.. They are satisfied with inaction.. With no resistance to Corsairs or cretins of all shapes and sizes that plague this galaxy..
I say NO! Malta is my Queen, and i will give my life for her, with every breathe i take! She will be the symbol of life and death across Sirius! I fly the the beautiful Outcast cross on my ship because I KNOW my life, my ancestors lives, were saved by this beautiful world we call home!.. When did you last see your leaders take flight, proud of their home?..
[The man pulls out a knife, and begins to slit his wrist, dripping red blood down his arm.]
Malta is in my blood.
And I am the Blood Of Malta.
Are you?
[The transmission cuts, leaving some citizens scratching their heads and others cheering.]

Senor Lowack
I feel for your passion, Senor. There are indeed many issues with our beloved homeworld, and I admire your dedication to our way of life and our great Nacion's underclass. We as a house must always remember those who work tirelessly, those who are on the front lines, not just abroad, but natively, sacrificing life and limb to ensure our Nacion may defend itself from entities that would see our homeworld as little more than a smoldering ruin. The great people of this Nacion are without a doubt it's highest priority, more-so than the defense, for without them we would not be a Nacion worth defending, no?
I ask that any and all citizens, native or not, of our great house rejoice in your freedom to not only speak out, but say to the man above 'we are not slaves'. The pitiful existence of those who see the homeworld as a spawning ground of subject must be reminded that they are silencing countless voices, and with that silence they betray the very ideals they 'work' to accomplish. They work to please the overlords of their lives, and with that work they secure the downfall of our great Nacion, our great homeworld and our beloved children who seek only to make a life free from the oppressions of the Dons and dictators masquerading as 'elected officials'.
For years, we've stood by and watched this oppression, this torment, from windows we could not surpass. For months, we have attempted to relay to the people the truths of the 'leadership', the corrupted top-heavies who seek only to nourish their own pockets and children, the very servants of the 'outlawed' alien oppressors who deem Malta a candidate to spread their heretic thought of disguised 'freedom'.
No more.
I ask, in addition to Senor Lowack's decree, for the denizens of the homeworld, our beloved Malta, and anyone abroad to rise up, to cast aside the heinous rulings of your oppressors, and to take back your freedoms. With one fell stroke, we may push the corruption, the lies and deceit from our home and return her to the hopeful promise we were given over eight-hundred years ago.
I am Gabriella de la Zerda, and I, not as a politician, but as a fellow child of Malta, ask my fellow brothers and sisters to say 'no', not just to the man with the gun, but to the man himself, and throw off the shackles of this hidden slavery.
Together, as one unified people, with all as one voice, we can tear down the walls of not only this heinous corruption, but the walls of anyone who would see our dreams turned to dust.
For so long i have been waiting for the moment of the glory*I say it and stand up*
But hold on, in my age and after all i have been thought i wont fall easily for sweet talk or"poison in honey"the time i spent in Vierlande Prison thought me a lot. Throughout the ages politicians have used the power of a passionate speech to encourage and motivate people to their cause, but tomorrow never dies.
Outcasts did not and will never surrender or bend for anyone as long as we are still breathing*Say it with anger holding my gun tighter wearing my mask to hide my heavily burnt face*
I would fight for the Maltese Nation till the last breath but i would never rise my gun on another Outcast unless i am defending myself, like you said Malta is in our blood and we all shall be united again for better future, but in such a position, it is better to die ten thousand deaths, than to do anything out of servility, during my lifetime I have dedicated myself to the Maltese Nation and the Nation of Malta only.
So what is it that you are calling for ? what action do you expect from your passionate speech ? too many questions needs to be addressed as your speech contains a lot of meanings between the lines and i dont wish to see or be a part of another civil war.*Saying at as i walk away toward my ship and fly deep inside the Siniestre Cloud*

I and my crew have only one question: "Have you tried to correct the situation yourself?" By criticism and some miserable revolutions you will not achieve anything. And give me one example of the fact that we are forced to work for the leaders of Malta? Do you seriously think that every second Maltese is a slave? Well, am I a slave in this way? For some reason, I feel quite free, and if I obey Malta's orders, then only if the scum like the Corsairs decides to arrange another meat grinder on our land. The worst thing to see is how a brother goes to his brother, and his father to his son. Do you want that? I`m not.
"Revolutions are so dangerous that people do not want to live under the old regime, but they are not going to create a new one."
We spilled our blood and sweat for this Nation, where ever it was needed.
And those Dons you speak of, they now brought those who we fought for almost a decade, since of our first arrival.
They also banished Malta's true allies and defenders.
And they also, made us to become forgotten like we were nothing.
My name is Overlord Jared Nomak, and I represent Commune, once Samarran Raiders.
We've watched this for enough time, believing that it was not our business, to decide the faith of Maltese.
But we were wrong. The Maltese need us like they needed us always. Like in the times when they called us the Sword of the Malta. And we were Malta's citizen. Malta's people.
We are ready to come back, and once again be what we were.
