Subject: Interdicted by KNF Squadron
The Rashinban was forced to eject cargo after an encounter with a Kusari Naval Forces squadron. While most of the squadron advocated for destruction of the vessel or imprisonment of the crew, the leader -designated as 'Ronin'- showed an unusual amount of reasonableness in requiring a fine and destruction only of cargo.
I have not seen this behavior in the Kusari Navy before, and I ask that they be treated with an amount of fairness.
Appended to this message are the log recordings obtained by the Rashinban's communications officer. Please note that I deemed it more valuable to preserve the Rashinban than our cargo, so I will accept any punishment in the place of the rest of my crew.
[27.06.2020 20:39:39] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: Well, this is an interesting encounter.
[27.06.2020 20:39:42] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: Konbanwa. Can I help you?
[27.06.2020 20:40:01] A bounty pool worth $50.000 credits for 1 kill has been deposited in your account.
[27.06.2020 20:40:44] Death: HMS-York was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:41:04] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: I didn't expect to see your troupe carrying those goods, nor using such a ship.
[27.06.2020 20:41:13] Death: Mr._Might_Kite was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:41:28] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: My troupe? I am not certain what you mean.
[27.06.2020 20:41:33] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: Konnichiwa.
[27.06.2020 20:41:52] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: Your collective of angry teenagers.
[27.06.2020 20:42:48] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: But we are not the Kusari navy! I am far older than a teenager.
[27.06.2020 20:43:14] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Seems like the suspect was already apprehended.
[27.06.2020 20:43:20] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: Hai.
[27.06.2020 20:44:13] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: So. What is happening with this particular suspect?
[27.06.2020 20:44:18] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Say, Chrysanthemum. Aren't you embarrassed to fly that hunk-of-junk?
[27.06.2020 20:44:27] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: I thought you lot revered the Akegata.
[27.06.2020 20:45:35] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: Hmph. What a silent person.
[27.06.2020 20:45:39] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: My crew and I simply have a preference for the Pilgrim. As you can see, it is quite capable of taking a beating
[27.06.2020 20:46:26] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: And surviving. Now, may we go? We are only carrying software, which is hardly illegal.
[27.06.2020 20:47:30] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: You are currently identifying as a member of a hostile organisation of the Kusari State.
[27.06.2020 20:48:04] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Have I missed anything?
[27.06.2020 20:48:10] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Negative, Captain.
[27.06.2020 20:48:16] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: Given the current situation, you are to either submit yourself to be detained. Or you will be executed.
[27.06.2020 20:48:21] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: Just on time.
[27.06.2020 20:48:24] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Good.
[27.06.2020 20:48:44] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: The Kusari state started it when they executed my crew running an independent trader.
[27.06.2020 20:48:51] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: This is your playfield, Ronin. Do with it what you must.
[27.06.2020 20:49:13] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: I am not here to argue. Submit yourself or perish.
[27.06.2020 20:49:14] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Aside from usual protocol, is there anything else that can be done?
[27.06.2020 20:49:33] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: We could subject her to a fine and dropping her cargo and let her carry on.
[27.06.2020 20:49:39] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: That in of itself is fine by me.
[27.06.2020 20:49:42] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Doubtful. Chrysanthemums aren't ones to submit easily or ever. Recommended action is to dismantle the ship.
[27.06.2020 20:49:44] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: I like that idea.
[27.06.2020 20:49:54] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: The previous one.
[27.06.2020 20:49:56] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: So my choices are to die in prison or to die here?
[27.06.2020 20:50:04] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: Section 6-1 of the Kusari Legal Codex demands the terrorist be detained or executed.
[27.06.2020 20:50:19] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: True, but that would be too easy.
[27.06.2020 20:50:30] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: This could be a serious blow to their logistical operations.
[27.06.2020 20:50:39] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Not like these "terrorists" are a threat to Kusari.
[27.06.2020 20:50:59] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Law is above all, Chishiki. Just because a captain refuses to cooperate with the Law and atone for their actions in prison.
[27.06.2020 20:51:06] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Doesn't mean we'll have to let them off the leashe.
[27.06.2020 20:51:10] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: If we are not a threat, just let us go.
[27.06.2020 20:51:24] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: I see.
[27.06.2020 20:51:24] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: You are a potential threat, alright.
[27.06.2020 20:51:28] Death: HMS-York was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:51:31] [KNF]'Chishiki'|66th: Noted.
[27.06.2020 20:51:33] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Ronin. Your call.
[27.06.2020 20:51:54] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: I'll stick to my original plan. Chrysanthemum you are to wire ten-million credits to me and drop your cargo.
[27.06.2020 20:52:11] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Failure to do so will be an obvious deconstruction of your vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:52:16] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: That is not what we are to do in this situation.
[27.06.2020 20:52:18] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: I suggest you take the deal.
[27.06.2020 20:52:25] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: Likewise.
[27.06.2020 20:52:27] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: This is a member of a enemy organisation.
[27.06.2020 20:52:35] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: It is very clear what we should do.
[27.06.2020 20:52:36] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: This is but a pawn.
[27.06.2020 20:52:42] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: That is irrelevant.
[27.06.2020 20:52:48] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: I won't put down a puppy.
[27.06.2020 20:52:55] [KNF]Sk.Hattori: Then you're in the wrong line of work.
[27.06.2020 20:53:09] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Hitokiri, I believe you hold higher jurisdiction than the Santo-Kaisa.
[27.06.2020 20:53:19] [KNF]'Hitokiri'|66th|: We'll do what Ronin - and by exention I say, commander Hattori.
[27.06.2020 20:53:22] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: If that is all you ask, we will comply.
[27.06.2020 20:53:31] Death: Mr._Might_Kite was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:54:11] /givecasht 10000000
[27.06.2020 20:54:11] [2020-06-27] 20:54:10 You have sent 10.000.000 credits to [KNF]'Ronin'|66th.
[27.06.2020 20:54:22] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Your cooperation is highly appreciated.
[27.06.2020 20:54:47] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: You are free to go.
[27.06.2020 20:55:01] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: We are sorry for any inconvenience we might've given to you *chuckles*
[27.06.2020 20:55:08] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Now get.
[27.06.2020 20:55:17] GC-Rashinban: Nakai: You are kind to allow me to carry on.

[27.06.2020 20:55:31] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Next time, be more vigilant if you are to smuggle.
[27.06.2020 20:55:32] Death: Lisander was put out of action by a hostile vessel.
[27.06.2020 20:55:43] [KNF]'Ronin'|66th: Cutting through the lanes like that.. *scoffs*
