Sanada.
Long after the group broke apart, you continued flying the colors.
I always wondered if you were actually committed or if it was a play. Regardless, I'm glad you're still alive, and I'm eager to have you rejoin the team. I'm sending people to collect you and your nyx. We'll fix it up properly for you. Expect Edmond Foch. He's asked to be assigned to assist you.
How come you disappeared just like that, without a word? Should I expect you to do that kind of move again in a close future?
About the Forlorn colors... Well. I'm quite a sentimental person. Would you believe it if I told you I still have a Naval Forces transponder dating from the foundation of the Republic, and still use it occasionally?
Same story here, really. Remembered that Nyx collecting dust somewhere in the Barrier pass, and decided to check how those Zoners were taking care of its safety. Turns out the sums invested in upkeep were worth it. And I kind of Missed House Bretonia.
Rest is history.
No but seriously, had quite some fun flying it. You can't believe how many people reacted at that dreaded call-sign. Guess the Gauls heard about the reputation as well. Had at least ten of them chasing me down last time. Was pretty fun.
The Nyx didn't appreciate that party though.
Foch Edmond, you say? Can that guy be trusted? Guess I will wait for his call then. Still didn't have any as of yet.
What about Carmen, by the way? You did not give me any news about her. Guess the girl had enough, then?
That said, if I can ask, what are your priorities, now?

You can trust Foch. He worked with me during a stint in Kusari.
Carmen decided to go back to Malta. Turns out that she's making a bid for her home. I don't know where that leaves us, but Eliza decided to not rejoin the Hope.
As for my priorities, they're somewhat open. I'm looking to reestablish the Hope, and then I'll take things as they come.
Hold up... Eliza..? Malta?! Stenn..? Stenn!!
This had better not be who I think it is. I want nothing to do with that bitch, you hear?!
She shot me down once in Tau 23 system; barely made it alive. Might as well have ended as a slave for the rest of my life! How can you trust an Outcast? How could I... Damnit!
So what else are you hiding from me, boy? Are you planning to work for the Malteses, or even Golden Chrysanthemum while you're at it? Where did you disappear all this time?
I thought I could trust you.
That was just means to an end, is it?

Sanada.
Relax. Things are uncertain at the moment. Right now, I can share that the Gallic Amiral wants to meet with me to discuss something. Do I need to worry that you're going to knife me for that?
Really want to walk that path?
Let me tell you one thing. "Carmen" and I came to an agreement that it was a bad idea and that we probably should stop you. And by stopping you I may just imply ripping your two legs off so that you cannot trip merrily your way to House Gallia.
Probably..?
But seriously. If "Carmen" and I could agree, that means something is terribly wrong. Perhaps it's time to reconsider your options?
Or perhaps... Perhaps you have good reasons to act in such a stupid and terrible way? Surprise me.
spelling it to you once more : Gallia equals bad idea,
Sanada Junko.
