I am contacting you on a personal matter, call it out of curiousity, after I have stumbled upon a less pleasing person of the Blood Dragons commanding a Togo-class Battleship. I have noticed that they were exclusively using Order technology and wanted to ask about this. Is it possible to acquire your capital weaponary? I am aware of the renewal of the Sigma Alliance still taking place but I am already curious.
[01.07.2018 16:04:56] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Mind telling me why you insult "her" then?
[01.07.2018 16:05:04] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Insult who?
[01.07.2018 16:05:23] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Megaera.
[01.07.2018 16:05:56] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: If truth being said into her face is insulting for her - she only prooves me right about her stature.
[01.07.2018 16:06:07] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: A stature of an immature child lost in her dreams.
[01.07.2018 16:06:09] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Mind telling me what you saw as truth then?
[01.07.2018 16:08:10] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Kon'nichiwa.
[01.07.2018 16:08:22] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Evening, Zoner.
[01.07.2018 16:08:46] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: I won't receive an answer, will I?
[01.07.2018 16:09:06] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: You must've fell deaf on ears if you haven't received it yet.
[01.07.2018 16:09:20] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Perhaps you would want to review the audio logs.
[01.07.2018 16:10:06] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Pah. You didn't understand me then.
[01.07.2018 16:10:28] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: I ask what "truth" you threw at her face.
[01.07.2018 16:10:41] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Not what you see the truth as.
[01.07.2018 16:10:48] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: I have told you already.
[01.07.2018 16:10:51] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Useless.
[01.07.2018 16:11:12] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Then go entertain yourself with something else. Are you her puppet, or something?
[01.07.2018 16:11:31] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: A puppet, huh? If someone's a puppet, she's mine.
[01.07.2018 16:11:51] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Makes little to no difference.
[01.07.2018 16:11:53] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: But hey, I won't entertain myself with something else. I do what I want.
[01.07.2018 16:12:37] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Mmh.
[01.07.2018 16:12:41] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Seems our assistance here is nor really necessary, given those dorks of Megaera's crowd is allowed here.
[01.07.2018 16:12:54] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Eh?
[01.07.2018 16:12:59] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Did you just call me..?
[01.07.2018 16:13:09] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Yes.
[01.07.2018 16:13:27] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: You shouldn't.
[01.07.2018 16:13:40] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: You should. Seriously. Never.
[01.07.2018 16:13:44] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Truth hurts?
[01.07.2018 16:13:45] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Call me anyone's puppet.
[01.07.2018 16:14:43] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: But when you think you are better than me or the people I chose as friends. Go get lost.
[01.07.2018 16:15:02] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: I am better than the likes of you, for sure.
[01.07.2018 16:15:26] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: If you really think so, that might explain why you know so much about this assault.
[01.07.2018 16:15:33] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Heartless murderer.
[01.07.2018 16:15:39] BD|-Kirishima: Yoshino: Excuse you?
[01.07.2018 16:16:08] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Hai, they told me. They told me they were forced to scare you off, as it seemed you knew too much.
[01.07.2018 16:16:21] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Such stuff raises questions, doesn't it? Did the "murderer" part hit you that hard now?
[01.07.2018 16:16:33] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: That's a bit overreactive, isn't it?
[01.07.2018 16:16:53] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Bye bye.
I might reacted a bit harshly but if you knew the full context, you would surely understand. I don't take insults regarding my person lightly but it ends when my friends get insulted too. And to explain the situation, a Zoner research installation fell victim to an attack of seemingly rogue Blood Dragons and friends of this Zoners as well as local military forces gather to counter this. Megaera considers this Zoners her friends too as I found out. I saw no issue in helping them too but as you can see things escalated the moment I have mentioned her name.
I have the suspicion that Meg told me the reason for this too already. If you please take a look at her words:
[01.07.2018 15:40:10] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: What are you doing all the way up here though?
[01.07.2018 15:40:19] Megaera: I am helping my allies defend these stations
[01.07.2018 15:40:47] Megaera: Blood dragons seem to find it funny to attack them
[01.07.2018 15:40:51] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Mmh. I see, who's making trouble? Wait.. what?
[01.07.2018 15:41:06] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Why the heck would they do that..
[01.07.2018 15:41:17] Megaera: No idea.
[01.07.2018 15:41:57] Megaera: A togo showed up blaming one of their own, but she knew too much and refused to to come in for answers
[01.07.2018 15:42:08] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: That's just stupid. They gain nothing by this. If I were them, I would focus my efforts on the Samura hub in Nagano.
[01.07.2018 15:42:18] Megaera: We had to destroy it
[01.07.2018 15:42:31] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Doesn't sound like a serious loss then.
[01.07.2018 15:42:44] Megaera: Some person called Yoshida...
[01.07.2018 15:42:53] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Yoshida?
[01.07.2018 15:42:57] Megaera: Unknown to me but they claimed to know me
[01.07.2018 15:43:20] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Yoshida.. I only know about one Yoshida but this one isn't a Dragon.
[01.07.2018 15:43:28] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: Claiming knowledge of you, Meg?
[01.07.2018 15:43:32] GC|W~Metal.Tango: Mi: In what way?
[01.07.2018 15:43:53] Megaera: Called me a troublemaker and started throwing insults at me

[01.07.2018 15:44:32] Megaera: not Yoshida
[01.07.2018 15:44:40] Megaera: Yoshino
Take this message as whatever you want, a revenge act or simple curiousity. To be honest, it is both. I am not asking the Order to assist in the protection of the Zoners or Megaera or me. We can handle all this ourselves. I just thought it is good to tell our allies about the Order technology used by this one Dragon vessel.
I also wish to ask if you think we should bring this up to the Shogunate.

Rogue Dragons?
This would not be the first time there is a hostile agency operating from under the Blood Dragon umbrella. I pressume their increasingly feudal tendencies only fester treachery by incentivizing unscrupulous individuals to backstab one another for promotion within their society.
The Order has no objections to sell its weapons towards its allies, be it laser or capital armanents that you could find even aboard battleships. However, the Shogun was quite insistive towards strict records and distribution of the hardware among Dragon forces. The ship under designation "Kirishima" yields no result from our databases. The ship must had then obtained these turrets outside of typical official channels, bypassing both Order and possibly even Shogun himself.
Whether the Zoner base in Independent Worlds dies or not is largely a Shogun decision and The Order will not question such decision. However as you claim, said Zoners were friends of the Clans. I cannot see any precise evidence of open hostilities (use of lethal force) so at this point of time I cannot condemn this disagreement. However this Dragon knows more than he is letting on while utterly failing at properly disguising oneself.
Do you have any more information about Captain of the Kirishima? Status, clan, agenda, connections... anything will be of help to make a clearer picture for The Order.
