From:Capitaine de Vaisseau Vicomte Pierre Vincent Dupetit-Thouars de Plateau des Coucous To:Marine Royale Gauloise Units Encryption:Bordeaux
Bonjour. Je suis Commandant de Vaisseau Vicomte Pierre Vincent Dupetit Thouars de Plateau des Coucous. You can remembre my name if you want, but you do not 'ave to. Iss is zhe procedure and a courtesy to introduce myself.
Donc. *For a moment he amuses himself by looking at his scepter. He swings it through the air, gracefully, a few times, as if he is trying its properties as a weapon.*
Many of you 'ave noticed zhat Libertie Navie station in front of Planete Los Angeles during our invasions. I know zhat because many of you 'ave complained about it. I suggested it should be desroyed to l'Amiraute. Zhe suggestion reashed King Charles 'imself, as iss was a matter of potensial propaganda value, but it took its time. Apparentlie 'Is Majeste 'ad very important sings to do at zhe time. I was on one of zhose parties myself, too. Not somesing you want to miss in exshange for a siege. Mais, now zhey are over. Everyone got drunk and some got violent. Besser not release zhat violence on 'Is Majeste's furniture, or zhe guillotine might be 'eard in zhe shambres of 'is castle. Pearl 'Arbour is a perfect targette for releasing violence.
*He stops caressing the scepter with his glance, which he suddenly shoots at the camera, as he slams the scepter into the floot.*
Chevaliers! By zhe direct ordre of King Charles XI, zhe stassion called "Pearl Harbor", by Planete Los Angeles in California, is to be desroyed completement and utterlie, at zhe earliest possible convenience! Failure means zhat zhose Sirians might stop fearing us. And zhat means zhat we might 'ave to do somesing very in'umane to restore our reputassion. I do not like dirtying my 'ands wizh blood. I prefere firing artillerie at zhe enemie. War should not be personal. Zhat is why I 'ave a firing squad armed wizh cannons to do zhat job over enemie prisoneurs or disobedient soldats. Zhose 'oo desert or oppose zhis ordre might 'ave zhe honneur of providing zhem wizh aiming practice.
What I said is verie clear and I expect no furzher questions. Au revoir. *He uses the scepter to gently turn the camera off.*
