Command Cruiser Akechi and Murasaki Operations Logs
Akech-kan & Murasaki-kan outside the Saiun Cloud
Log 1: Preparing the Crew
23/06/829
The two Storta Cruisers prepared by Hispania Imperial have been received in good working order. Weapons systems are fully online, reactors are stable, and the refitted engines work properly, even beyond expectations during the trial runs. The ships no longer fully rely on the deuterium and mox fuel that is commonly used by Malta, but can now operate efficiently on H-fuel aswell.
That leaves us with a more pressing problem. The crew. Most of our GC Sisters have no experience operating a cruisers and therefore cannot achieve maximum efficiency out of these vessels. So far we managed to achieve an operational rating that fluctuates around 75%. To counter this, we have set up the recruitment process of our more technical GC Sisters and a massive reorganisation of the onboard chain of command is in progress.
Current crew status of the Akechi-kan:
CO - Matriarch Ishikawa Aya, codename Kiri
XO - Ikeda Yume
Current crew status of the Murasaki-kan:
CO - Nijigiku Adachi Masako
XO - Shireigiku Hinohara Yuuko
Those willing to step forwards for active roles on and outside of the cruisers when out in the field and having the proper qualifications are urged to step forward.
I have heard that you have wanted crew members for the new cruisers. I always wanted to be a part of something like this, but never got the chance till now. I would like to be on the Akechi-kan as the radio operator.
Sender:Yunoki Misaki Recipient:Gen'an Chrysanthemums Subject:A place on the Murasaki
Konnichiwa,
I heard Yuuko-san was XO on the Murasaki, so I decided to see if you have need of me.
I don't know much about engineering or about cruisers in general, but maybe maybe some of the Sisters will decide to bring their pets on board. Maybe I can volunteer to be part of the search and rescue when animals get lost in the cargo bay or when they wander around on other decks or close to weapon systems.
Or maybe find something else I can do. I don't really know. Perhaps you can find something suitable.
I'm hereby volunteering myself for a post on either of the two ships. The specifics are of little importance, I'll mop the floors, maintain the engines or work the comms if I have to.
Furthermore, I have little to no experience with Outcasts technology, so uh, keep that in mind before you put a trigger under my finger.
Sender:Kiri Eri Amaririsu Recipient:Gen'an Chrysanthemums Subject:Cruiser crew
Konnichiwa sisters,
Gomenasai for the thing with my name, Sensei Mariko Gave me my New Geisha Name and I am still not fully used to it. I would Like to help the Crews of the Cruisers too, but I fear I do have not that much Military Knowledge. But I am Good with Computers and Skilled at Hacking. I can also entertain the Crew with my Talents a Geisha Apprentice, and bring them arts and Music to entertain them in their Freetime. I have also Taught my Gaian Parot Miri a Few Tricks that could entertain them. And if all of that skills are of no use on such a Military ship, I could at least help to Supply the ships with everything they need and Bring Supplies to them with the Litle Transport Amaririsu that is under my command. Please allow me to help.

As luck or fate would have it, I am in need of your services. You see, there is indeed a bar onboard. And other than keeping Hinohara-san happy, you can make me happy by keeping the bar stocked with a variety of drinks! I know how resourceful you are Yunoki-san, and I can think of no one better suited for this important job.
Maruso-san,
I have flown with you recently and was impressed with your overall performance and attitude. These things considered, I would like to have you on board in some capacity. As you pointed out, the specifics are of little importance, at least for the moment. For now, anyway, you may assist Yunoki-san with setting up the bar.
Sender:Matriarch Ishikawa Aya Recipient:Suzuki Himari & Eri Amaririsu Subject:Akechi-kan positions
Himari-san,
Your request has been accepted. Yume is already familiar with the communication systems of the ship and will show you the ropes.
Amaririsu-san,
We could have use for you as our systems technician to make sure to optimise them using your computer expertise. Both the Akechi and the Murasaki could use a good diagnostics, debugs and optimisation. If you could run some checks on them, that would be appreciated. Also test the defences of our systems while at it.
Besides this as our onboard computer expert, you are welcome to help run the recreational area on the side. But do not spread yourself too thin. When the Akechi is out in the field I expect everyone to work to their optimal capacity

Akech-kan & Murasaki-kan guarding the Amenhotep while Gishi performs emergency repairs
Log 2: Amenhotep's plea
14/07/829
The first major deployment of the Akechi and the Murasaki has been a success. At 08/07/829, the Amenhotep made an emergency transmission from the Border Worlds, requesting the aid of the Golden Chrysanthemums. After we had laid down our terms, we moved in to assist with the repairs, which had been more substantial than we had anticipated.
As the Gishi, our repair ship on scene got to work, we were under attack by several waves of alien vessels, but managed to fend them off with minimal damage to our cruisers. Two fighters and a bomber got badly damaged, but the pilots have all been accounted for. For more information on the details of the incursion, refer to Ashikaga's report
Current crew status of the Akechi-kan: CO - Matriarch Ishikawa Aya, codename Kiri
XO - Ikeda Yume
Radio Operator - Suzuki Himari
Tech/System Operator - Eri Amaririsu
Current crew status of the Murasaki-kan: CO - Nijigiku Adachi Masako

Furthermore, For future reference, the logs of what had transpired that day will be included in this report. The sudden appearance of Nomads in the borderworld is concerning indeed.
[08.07.2022 20:44:45] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: I did not realise the Chrysanthemums had such vessels at their disposal.. impressive
[08.07.2022 20:45:12] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: We have the Akechi and the Murasaki
[08.07.2022 20:45:19] GC-Suzuki.Himari: *sada smiles*
[08.07.2022 20:45:23] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Of outcast origin, both?
[08.07.2022 20:45:38] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: They are still being optimised for combat
[08.07.2022 20:46:00] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: It is quite a feat nonetheless. Perhaps it ought to get the Navy to think twice about future engagements.
[08.07.2022 20:47:12] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Konnichiwa.
[08.07.2022 20:47:31] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: *Tsudzuri bows her head with respect.*
[08.07.2022 20:47:34] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Ah, Adachi-san. Glad you could come
[08.07.2022 20:47:43] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Konnichiwa sisters
[08.07.2022 20:47:46] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: All system greenlit?
[08.07.2022 20:48:05] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: It is always good to see you, Kiri-sama.
[08.07.2022 20:48:25] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Is this the new sister?
[08.07.2022 20:48:27] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Hai, all systems are green.
[08.07.2022 20:48:53] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Hai. Ashikaga Tsudzuri.
[08.07.2022 20:48:56] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Of Blood Dragon origin

[08.07.2022 20:58:34] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: It would seem so. [she chuckles]
[08.07.2022 20:58:46] GC-Sada.Aeru: Konnichiwa.
[08.07.2022 20:58:59] GC-Akechi-kan: All should be here
[08.07.2022 20:59:04] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: So it would seem. Yesterdays battles have somewhat drained me
[08.07.2022 20:59:16] GC-Gishi: S: The services of the Gishi were requested, thus, here we are
[08.07.2022 20:59:22] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Guess it is time to meet our new 'friend'
[08.07.2022 20:59:27] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: You saw combat, Matsumoto-san?
[08.07.2022 20:59:54] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Indeed, several of them yesterday. Today was the day for extended naps
[08.07.2022 21:04:13] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: New signature detected, Investigating source.
[08.07.2022 21:04:28] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Copy that, our fleet will follow

[08.07.2022 21:04:58] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Konnichiwa
[08.07.2022 21:05:05] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Amenhotep in range
[08.07.2022 21:05:10] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: An Osiris... Are these not the Order's favoured vessel?
[08.07.2022 21:05:16] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Indeed they are
[08.07.2022 21:05:24] GC-Sada.Aeru: Hai, I see it.
[08.07.2022 21:05:31] GC-Gishi: S: Large ship on Radar, I assume this is our contact?
[08.07.2022 21:05:31] GC-Sada.Aeru: Sisters, come.
[08.07.2022 21:05:32] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: However this one is not affiliated to them, it appears
[08.07.2022 21:05:33] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Hai, we have visual.
[08.07.2022 21:05:35] Amenhotep: Lilly: Well yes, and technically they would move mountains to get this one back.
[08.07.2022 21:05:53] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Initiating deep scan
[08.07.2022 21:06:53] Amenhotep: Lilly: I take it your the sortie sent out to meet us?
[08.07.2022 21:08:11] GC-Sada.Aeru: Drone, how is the scan going on that one? It would be unfortunate if this meeting goes wrong.
[08.07.2022 21:08:20] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Indeed. I imagine you did not expect this many escort ships. It was done simply as a preventive measure if anything out of~
[08.07.2022 21:08:24] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: I am Matriarch Kiri of the Gen'an GC. I wanted to personally see what this was all about. I took my entourage with me.
[08.07.2022 21:08:26] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: ordinary or unexpected happens
[08.07.2022 21:08:28] GC-Sada.Aeru: We have to take the necessary precautions.
[08.07.2022 21:08:41] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Hope I didn't disappoint you
[08.07.2022 21:08:49] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Were you at all followed, Amenhotep?
[08.07.2022 21:09:05] GC-Gishi: S: Repair supplies are available, Nanobot hull fusion tool is ready for work
[08.07.2022 21:09:12] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Scanning fininshed, Multiple Advanced tech devices detected onboard. Threat level Low
[08.07.2022 21:09:36] GC-Sada.Aeru: Threat level low? Is this a joke that I do not understand?
[08.07.2022 21:09:41] GC-Sada.Aeru: It is a massive warship!
[08.07.2022 21:10:03] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Guess the scanners should be recallibrated
[08.07.2022 21:10:09] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Correction immininet
[08.07.2022 21:10:12] GC-Sada.Aeru: Well, at least it is not charging weapons at all.
[08.07.2022 21:10:18] GC-Sada.Aeru: So far, so good.
[08.07.2022 21:10:31] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: How did you secure such a vessel from its... original owners?
[08.07.2022 21:10:52] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: It's said that Osiris class battleships posses stealth technology, so they should be more difficult to track by scanners
[08.07.2022 21:10:53] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Power fluctuation detected among ship Energy systems
[08.07.2022 21:11:07] Amenhotep: Lilly: Captain Asmodeus is former Order agent and took the liberty of keeping it after being betrayed by the Order Overwatch.
[08.07.2022 21:11:18] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Truly fascinating...
[08.07.2022 21:11:57] GC-Raimei: An Order crew, haven't heard from any of them since, does anyone know who they are ?
[08.07.2022 21:12:39] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Threat of futher reactor malfunctions unknown, System condition low. Repair as soon as possible
[08.07.2022 21:12:57] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Looks like we have work to do.
[08.07.2022 21:13:09] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Last time I interacted with Order agents they called us a coven of witches
[08.07.2022 21:13:27] Amenhotep: Lilly: your drone is pretty acturate, we are experiencing energy malfunctions and power outages some of the lower decks.
[08.07.2022 21:13:36] GC-Gishi: S: we have Components for engine repairs on board, They may require minor alterations to be used, but they should allow for
[08.07.2022 21:13:45] GC-Gishi: S: Reactor restoration
[08.07.2022 21:14:53] GC-Gishi: S: Prepare Tractor system to secure the package, sending away
[08.07.2022 21:15:09] Amenhotep: Lilly: Any parts you can spare will be useful, our engineers are good at altering equipment to suit our ship.
[08.07.2022 21:15:21] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Sugested replacements match 98% with ship signature, Succsees of stable repair 100%
[08.07.2022 21:15:39] GC-Gishi: S: Engine component crate in in space, ready for tractor beam
[08.07.2022 21:16:03] Amenhotep: Lilly: Thank you, I will have our engineers get to work on the conversion.
[08.07.2022 21:16:23] Amenhotep: Lilly: I wasnt aware the GC were able to procure the Storta from the Outcasts.
[08.07.2022 21:16:25] GC-Gishi: S: Armour plates also available, should you have internal breaches to repair
[08.07.2022 21:16:28] Amenhotep: L: Pretty impressive.
[08.07.2022 21:17:14] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: They are a closely guarded secret. Much like your own vessel it seems
[08.07.2022 21:17:26] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: I am reading an unknown ship approaching
[08.07.2022 21:17:37] GC-Gishi: S: The communication stated, severe damage had occured to the bridge, would you require external Breach sealing in that area?

[08.07.2022 21:47:19] Amenhotep: Lilly: Our ship is running at 90 percent capacity at the moment. We should not linger for long, incase more Nomads show up.
[08.07.2022 21:47:20] GC-Sada.Aeru: After this, the Amenhotep will only require a new painting. To hide the scratches. *chuckles*
[08.07.2022 21:47:36] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: The three before that one have also originated from the direction of that cloud
[08.07.2022 21:47:47] GC-Sada.Aeru: Ah, the freelancers left. Good, they were giving me the creeps.
[08.07.2022 21:47:53] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Same

[08.07.2022 21:48:08] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Maybe we should've destroyed them

[08.07.2022 21:48:22] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: But they didn't show any hostility, yet
[08.07.2022 21:48:27] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Wonder if they were in some way related to all the Nomad activity.
[08.07.2022 21:48:30] GC-Sada.Aeru: Maybe you are right, Hotaru-san. But I guess this takes priority.
[08.07.2022 21:48:35] GC-Raimei: Matsumoto-san .. that is literally what I said in the beginning
[08.07.2022 21:48:41] GC-Gishi: S: System status report, Amenhotep?
[08.07.2022 21:49:16] Amenhotep: L: our systems are at 90% capacity at the moment, you have done a great job. any further repairs will need a dry dock.
[08.07.2022 21:49:31] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: It is incredible what a simple repair ship can do, sometimes.
[08.07.2022 21:49:46] Amenhotep: L: If we had space to house on in our ship we would.
[08.07.2022 21:49:58] GC-Gishi: S: Allow us to supply our surplus panels, should you need emergency repairs with no station avalable
[08.07.2022 21:50:01] Amenhotep: L: one * cough*

[08.07.2022 21:51:03] GC-Gishi: S: That should enable space walks for emergency repairs, should other repair options be unavaiable
[08.07.2022 21:51:38] GC-Sada.Aeru: what about Noshima? not really a warship spaceport but...it could take some "rest" there for the time being
[08.07.2022 21:51:54] GC-Gishi: S: This is all we could do, good luck with the rest
[08.07.2022 21:51:56] Ego: There is absolutely nothing in the cloud.

[08.07.2022 21:53:57] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Hai, agreed.
[08.07.2022 21:54:09] GC-Sada.Aeru: It sounds boring, but fine.

[08.07.2022 21:54:20] Amenhotep: Lilly: Lead the way, we are not to familiar with Kusari space.
[08.07.2022 21:55:03] GC-Sada.Aeru: Don't we already have a totally expendable drone to scout ahead?
[08.07.2022 21:55:25] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Securing Estimated route
[08.07.2022 21:55:33] GC-Sada.Aeru: Good drone.

[08.07.2022 21:58:35] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: This cloud should keep us hidden for a while

[08.07.2022 21:58:40] GC-Sada.Aeru: Fortunately for you, Amenhotep, Kusari is full of clouds. Good if you need to hide.
[08.07.2022 21:58:52] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: The way ahead is indeed clear, sisters
[08.07.2022 21:59:24] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: We're about to leave the Keiun Cloud. We should have the visual view on the outer space soon
[08.07.2022 21:59:35] Amenhotep: Lilly: We will try to update our Nav Map and scout out possible locations.
[08.07.2022 21:59:49] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: I would have expected the government dogs to be all over us by now. We appear to have caught a break.
[08.07.2022 22:00:03] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: So it would seem.
[08.07.2022 22:00:03] GC-Gishi: S: Preffered outcome

[08.07.2022 22:00:15] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: I won't complain about it. All the more convenient for us
[08.07.2022 22:00:22] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: A quiet day is a good day.

[08.07.2022 22:02:24] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Samura, Kishiro, Corsairs, GMG, any Kusari law enforcement agencies
[08.07.2022 22:02:26] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Hai, welcome. [she smiles]
[08.07.2022 22:02:34] Amenhotep: Lilly: Your hospitality wont go unrewarded. We will do our best to repay this debt.
[08.07.2022 22:03:06] Amenhotep: Lilly: We have no affiliation with those listed entities.
[08.07.2022 22:03:35] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Database connection established. Synchronizing and loging collected data... *weird pc noises*
[08.07.2022 22:03:45] GC-Gishi: S: Should you require further supplies, we can run them Rapidly with Freighters
[08.07.2022 22:03:59] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: Konnichiwa sisters. ahm is that a Battleship?
[08.07.2022 22:04:08] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Your eyes to not deceive you
[08.07.2022 22:04:10] GC-Sada.Aeru: At least, this will be a fine stopover for your crew.
[08.07.2022 22:04:45] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: synchronization completed, returning to normal duty
[08.07.2022 22:04:50] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: wow and i thought i was a Pirate for Stealing a Liner. *chuckles as her parrot lands on her shoulder*
[08.07.2022 22:04:57] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: This is the Amenhotep of Captain Asmodeus.
[08.07.2022 22:05:22] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: so we have not stolen it?
[08.07.2022 22:05:43] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: No, we did not steal it. [she laughs]
[08.07.2022 22:05:45] GC-Sada.Aeru: Shh, stop revealing our final master plan. *laughs*
[08.07.2022 22:05:53] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Well, there goes that one I suppose
[08.07.2022 22:06:15] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: We aren't trained to maintain the vessel of that size, hehe
[08.07.2022 22:06:23] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: This cloaking technology is more impressive than I thought...
[08.07.2022 22:06:40] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: The gishi made a good amount of repairs though
[08.07.2022 22:06:49] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: well i am still a Priate, i have the Parrot after all. *gigles*
[08.07.2022 22:06:54] GC-Sada.Aeru: Repair ships can do wonders.
[08.07.2022 22:07:41] GC-Tanagumo: *Bestows a boop upon Suzuki*
[08.07.2022 22:07:48] Amenhotep: L: Everything seems nominal at this point though.
[08.07.2022 22:07:57] GC-Suzuki.Himari: *returns a boop on tanagumo
[08.07.2022 22:08:02] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: Happens. Guess your system insulation got damage too
[08.07.2022 22:08:04] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: If anything, it didnt happen at the worst time
[08.07.2022 22:08:06] GC-Tanagumo: *happy beeps n boops*
[08.07.2022 22:08:18] Ashikaga.Tsudzuri: Hai. If it happened when the Yokai attacked? That would have been far more of a concern.
[08.07.2022 22:08:21] Amenhotep: L: Yes, very lucky.
[08.07.2022 22:08:40] GC-Gishi: S: Should you wish to, some small ships are available on this station for small ship exploration
[08.07.2022 22:08:47] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Initiating deep scan of Battleship
[08.07.2022 22:08:49] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: all good i have cuddled with my Parrot in the meantime. *the Parrot says hello*
[08.07.2022 22:09:24] Amenhotep: L: You have a parrot aboard?
[08.07.2022 22:09:29] Amenhotep: L: Odd but interesting.
[08.07.2022 22:09:30] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Navigation system malfunction detected, sending calibration Data
[08.07.2022 22:09:31] GC-Gishi: S: They are of Civilian orgin, I should hope they will provide good anonimity
[08.07.2022 22:09:54] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: hai her Name is Miri, she is a Gaian Parrot that one of my sisters safed from a Smuggler.
[08.07.2022 22:11:35] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Nanobots detected, retriving for own usage
[08.07.2022 22:12:09] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Eri-san would not be the only one with... interesting pets
[08.07.2022 22:12:17] GC-Sada.Aeru: Amenhotep, one more thing. What is your stance regarding the Outcasts?
[08.07.2022 22:12:35] Amenhotep: Lilly: We dont have pets on our ship. At least not that I know of.
[08.07.2022 22:13:06] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: One of our Sisters keeps bringing gaian animals back to base
[08.07.2022 22:13:12] Amenhotep: Lilly: We leave them be should they leave us be. We dont have any quarrel with the Outcasts. Though I am not sure how they view
[08.07.2022 22:13:14] Amenhotep: our ship.
[08.07.2022 22:13:22] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: Well i wouldnt have too, but this smart girl always finds a way to sneak on board. so i gave up to keep her out.
[08.07.2022 22:14:22] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: We don't know either.
[08.07.2022 22:14:47] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: But so long as you stay on our good side, I doubt there will be issues
[08.07.2022 22:14:59] Amenhotep: Lilly: If your concerned about our view on Cardamine listen well. We have bigger issues at hand than to worry about a drug from
[08.07.2022 22:14:59] Amenhotep: malta.
[08.07.2022 22:15:17] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Altho, I wouldnt enter their space unannounced with a warship
[08.07.2022 22:15:18] GC-Sada.Aeru: Interesting. Fair enough.
[08.07.2022 22:15:18] GC-Murasaki-kan: Adachi: Good to know.
[08.07.2022 22:15:35] GC-Sada.Aeru: They do visit Kusari sometimes.
[08.07.2022 22:15:47] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: i think you shouldnt have problems as long as you keep neutra.
[08.07.2022 22:15:53] GC-Fuyuzakura: neutral.
[08.07.2022 22:16:02] Amenhotep: Lilly: As I said, if the Outcast leave us be then we have no reason to get messy should they visit.
[08.07.2022 22:16:37] Amenhotep: Lilly: But you know how some outcast can be a bit trigger happy.
[08.07.2022 22:17:26] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: sounds good, maybe i will even let you pet Miri then.
[08.07.2022 22:17:53] GC-Sada.Aeru: It depends on who you are talking to, I guess. It is not that I know too many Outcasts to judge them like that. *shrugs*
[08.07.2022 22:18:25] GC-Sada.Aeru: In any case, the crew of the Amenhotep should be more than safe around here.
[08.07.2022 22:18:34] GC-Suzuki.Himari: Indeed
[08.07.2022 22:18:37] GC-Sada.Aeru: Especially if the ship stays around the clouds.
[08.07.2022 22:18:51] Amenhotep: Lilly: Our communication channels are always open, dont hesitate to get into contact with us should any of you need anything.
[08.07.2022 22:19:14] GC-Akechi-kan: Kiri: If you found yourself in any problems, I will sort it out. You will enjoy the hospitality of the GC as long as you our
[08.07.2022 22:19:20] GC-Akechi-kan: mutual understand lasts
[08.07.2022 22:19:37] GC-Fuyuzakura: Eri: hmm sounds like you will have a great time in Kusari. if you need a Geisha for entertainment tell me.
[08.07.2022 22:20:05] GC-Tanagumo: Female Voice: Amenhotep Signature added to friendly database, unit can request assistance whenever needed
[08.07.2022 22:20:07] GC-Matsumoto.Hotaru: Keep in mind, this installation gets all kinds of visitors, so you may be able to meet someone from far away.
Command Cruiser Akechi and Murasaki Operations Logs
The aftermath of the clash with the Kiyohime
Log 3: Clash in the Saiun Cloud
02/08/829
The Skirmish took place at 27/07/829 A.S. in Shikoku. Both the Murasaki, commanded at the time by XO and Shireigiku, Hinohara Yuuko, and the Akechi, commanded by myself, XO Ikeda Yume, were not operational at full capacity yet. The maximum reactor output achieved from the reactor of the Akechi is currently 75%, and most likely, the Murasaki has similar readings.
Quite honestly, we tried to bluff our way out when the Kiyohime showed up. A state of the art Naval cruiser. The captain, Matsuda, the oh so how ironically named woman, would have none of that and despite my warnings, proceeded to engage the Akechi. Luckely Hinohara was quick to act and gave me covering fire.
The battle started in open space, but soon took us into the Saiun Cloud where we managed to incapacitate the Kiyohime. I opted not to destroy it as a warning. As I told to Captain Matsuda, to not act is more powerful than to act given certain conditions. In this case, letting her go shows more control of the battlefield than they had displayed in the past. Psychological warfare 101.
In any case. Our crews held up most examplary during combat. The Murasaki needed some heavy repair as it received the brunt of Kiyohime's firepower, but nothing that can't be repaired or replaced. Logs are included.
[26.07.2022 20:58:18] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Akechi-kan, konnichiwa.
[26.07.2022 20:58:31] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Shireigiku Hinohara
[26.07.2022 20:58:44] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Konnichiwa
[26.07.2022 20:58:56] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Ah, chief comms officer Yume, it is a pleasure. What brings you out in space?
[26.07.2022 20:59:01] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Don't see you out here often.
[26.07.2022 21:02:56] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Baka.. of course there are two of them.
[26.07.2022 21:03:11] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Konnichiwa.
[26.07.2022 21:03:14] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: This is getting out of hand. NOW there are two of them.
[26.07.2022 21:03:27] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Oh that one returned
[26.07.2022 21:03:40] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I shook her off in some nebula earlier
[26.07.2022 21:03:53] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Oh.. *baka....*
[26.07.2022 21:04:13] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Cloak technology
[26.07.2022 21:04:41] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Hai, you figured that much out.
[26.07.2022 21:05:15] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: *she mutters* two outcast destroyers.. this is far too uncomfortable...
[26.07.2022 21:05:36] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I don't think we're keeping you here, you can always move along.
[26.07.2022 21:05:52] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Wait.. that voice..
[26.07.2022 21:05:59] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Hai. It's me.
[26.07.2022 21:06:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Since when did you move off of a gunboat?
[26.07.2022 21:06:22] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I know, not the usual vessel I'm on. Trust me, I feel the difference too.
[26.07.2022 21:06:29] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I will -never- move off of a gunboat.
[26.07.2022 21:06:49] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I just ocassionally hop on the Murasaki-kan. I -am- it's Executive, after all.
[26.07.2022 21:06:58] IKN-Kiyohime: *Matsuda looks awkwardly around the bridge* Hai.. so I see...
[26.07.2022 21:07:52] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I cannot say I'm overly comfortable at the revelation that the outcasts have given you two of those accursed things
[26.07.2022 21:07:53] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Nice of you to all get along, Hinohara, but she is the enemy
[26.07.2022 21:08:14] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Get along? I believe you must be mistaken.
[26.07.2022 21:08:24] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I might be considering engaging that ship if I was on the Hoshi, Yume-san.
[26.07.2022 21:08:36] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: But it's the last on my to-do list on the Murasaki-kan.
[26.07.2022 21:09:31] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Then what is the purpose of our current presence here?
[26.07.2022 21:09:31] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I find myself in a somewhat awkward position. The fight is not impossible.. yet I dare not risk my vessel.
[26.07.2022 21:09:52] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: To cut off trading ships?
[26.07.2022 21:10:49] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Well.. since we're here. I obviously know Hinohara-ch.... Hinohara, but who is this on the other vessel?
[26.07.2022 21:11:18] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Who I am is little of your concern
[26.07.2022 21:11:30] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I prefer to know my enemy. It is very much my concern.
[26.07.2022 21:11:49] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Then by all means, keep guessing
[26.07.2022 21:12:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: You remind me of those younger KNF officers far, far too much.
[26.07.2022 21:13:01] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Could be
[26.07.2022 21:13:13] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Only I am far from young
[26.07.2022 21:13:26] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: A chrysanthemum who isn't young? That is a rare sight.
[26.07.2022 21:14:01] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Its more common than you think
[26.07.2022 21:14:47] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: That so? Here I was under the impression that your... methods.. had something of an attrition rate
[26.07.2022 21:15:37] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: So does the navy. You people arent selected for your willingness to live
[26.07.2022 21:16:35] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: What would you know of Naval selection?
[26.07.2022 21:17:52] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: You need a certain willingness to take risks and have a lack of fear to choose such a proffesion
[26.07.2022 21:18:01] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Perhaps.
[26.07.2022 21:18:23] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: When I joined, it was a great honour, to be accepted. Testing was quite vigorous, in fact.
[26.07.2022 21:18:33] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: That was before the many wars that have ravaged Kusari in the last fifteen years however.
[26.07.2022 21:19:05] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: the Bretonian conflict.. the Gallic war.. the damned Republic usurpers.. the civil war.. the war with rheinland..
[26.07.2022 21:19:13] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: The ever present conflict with the Blood Dragons..
[26.07.2022 21:19:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And... the GC.
[26.07.2022 21:19:45] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: And then you ask me about the attrition rate? You know well enough what I speak about
[26.07.2022 21:20:22] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Ask any of this vessel's senior crewmembers. They all know.
[26.07.2022 21:21:10] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: By the sounds of it, had fate been different, you may not have made a bad naval officer yourself.
[26.07.2022 21:21:18] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Which is why is it foolish to think that GC is only composed of young girls
[26.07.2022 21:21:47] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I did not say it was only of young girls, merely that older ones were a relative rarity. Much as they are in... well
[26.07.2022 21:21:49] IKN-Kiyohime: The navy.
[26.07.2022 21:22:20] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Those girls don't have the experience to know logistics, when to change tactic or when to strike
[26.07.2022 21:22:28] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: The young, the foolish, the patriotic, and more, all sign up to their deaths these days.
[26.07.2022 21:22:54] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I would make for a bad navy officer
[26.07.2022 21:23:58] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Given your.. career choice, perhaps that is true.
[26.07.2022 21:24:18] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: You misunderstand.
[26.07.2022 21:24:58] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I've had a lot of people saying that to me lately. Explain.
[26.07.2022 21:25:12] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I do not fight other people's battles. Only my own.
[26.07.2022 21:25:29] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And what makes you think I fight other people's battles?
[26.07.2022 21:26:04] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I won't be sent off to fight and die in someone else's conflicts
[26.07.2022 21:26:28] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Neither will I.
[26.07.2022 21:26:53] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: That is why my only conflict is fighting for the survival of my crew, my brothers and sisters aboard this vessel.
[26.07.2022 21:27:17] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: The young, the foolish, the patriotic, as I said. Guide them to survive to their retirement from service.
[26.07.2022 21:27:28] GC-Akechi-kan: The second Gallic war. Is that something you wanted?
[26.07.2022 21:27:57] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: What are you getting at with that question?
[26.07.2022 21:28:14] GC-Akechi-kan: It is a simple question
[26.07.2022 21:28:18] GC-Akechi-kan: Yes or no
[26.07.2022 21:28:29] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: At face value, perhaps.
[26.07.2022 21:28:48] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Very well, then I will humour you. No. I fought in the battle of Tau-31 in the first war. I know very well what the
[26.07.2022 21:28:58] IKN-Kiyohime: Gallic fleets are capable of. Kusari was not ready.
[26.07.2022 21:29:21] GC-Akechi-kan: Yet, Kusari sent their people to die there once again.
[26.07.2022 21:30:02] IKN-Kiyohime: *Matsuda grits her teeth for a brief moment* Perhaps.
[26.07.2022 21:30:08] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: That is what I mean with fighting and dying for someone else's ambitions
[26.07.2022 21:30:11] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: What are you saying.
[26.07.2022 21:30:35] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Those ambitions were... misguided, at the time.
[26.07.2022 21:31:04] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: That I would be the person to spit such orders in the face. Why I won't be a good officer. I fight only for what I stand
[26.07.2022 21:31:06] GC-Akechi-kan: behind
[26.07.2022 21:31:50] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I swore an oath, in the end of the day. An oath to serve the emperor; one I have not broken in nineteen years.
[26.07.2022 21:32:23] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Kusari may have been through hellfire and brimstone, however I have made it this far, at least.
[26.07.2022 21:32:44] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And.. well. My death will come whenever fate sees fit to deliver it to me.
[26.07.2022 21:32:58] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Because of your crew, not because of them. Be honest, you fight for them
[26.07.2022 21:33:23] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I have already said as much. They know it, I know it. Though, not only that. I have a duty to fulfil, and I fulfil it
[26.07.2022 21:33:25] IKN-Kiyohime: as best I can.
[26.07.2022 21:33:43] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: A duty to the state, the oath I swore a long time ago.
[26.07.2022 21:35:09] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: sounds one sided
[26.07.2022 21:35:15] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Explain.
[26.07.2022 21:36:11] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: A duty to the state. What duty?
[26.07.2022 21:36:24] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Why do you owe it anything
[26.07.2022 21:37:28] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: A duty I volunteered for, to defend Kusari's citizens, to take care of my crew, to protect those who cannot protect
[26.07.2022 21:37:31] IKN-Kiyohime: themselves.
[26.07.2022 21:38:00] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: In return, I had the opportunity to prove myself. There was a time when none would give me so much as a second look.
[26.07.2022 21:39:10] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I suppose, above all, a duty to serve the Emperor, and to trust in his guidance.
[26.07.2022 21:39:53] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I don't feel the urge to prove myself to anyone. I just am. Whoever have an issue with that, so be it
[26.07.2022 21:40:28] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Honestly the better way to live than in a straightjacket of duty and obedience
[26.07.2022 21:41:32] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: It was, I suppose, for me born of carrying the look of a foreigner, as well as being born feminine, but that part is a
[26.07.2022 21:41:34] IKN-Kiyohime: given in Kusari.
[26.07.2022 21:41:48] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I took pleasure in rising above that prejudice.
[26.07.2022 21:42:48] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I find more pleasure in breaking the prejudice than rising above it
[26.07.2022 21:43:19] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Why play by their rules when you can live according to your own?
[26.07.2022 21:44:18] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I played with the hand I was dealt, it is as simple as that. I made the most out of the situation I was in.
[26.07.2022 21:44:48] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Besides, I am but one woman. I am best served here, where I can ensure the hundred and seventy four other souls on
[26.07.2022 21:44:55] IKN-Kiyohime: board are taken care of.
[26.07.2022 21:44:56] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Why did you accept those cards in the first place?
[26.07.2022 21:45:56] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I saw an opportunity, and I took it. Things were different at the time. Kusari had a bright future.
[26.07.2022 21:46:15] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Or, so it seemed.
[26.07.2022 21:47:03] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Kusari has been rotten for centuries. Bright future for some people maybe. Not for all
[26.07.2022 21:48:43] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Hai. That is regrettably the case. I spoke to a noble earlier, Shimamori. He seemed.. distant, from the reality of
[26.07.2022 21:48:45] IKN-Kiyohime: Kusari.
[26.07.2022 21:49:08] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Perhaps I must concede that part of me wished I could change that but, I have a duty to uphold.
[26.07.2022 21:49:27] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Shimamori is a strange one and a blight on Kusari culture
[26.07.2022 21:50:15] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Besides. I doubt my service will last much longer. I would see it out with as much integrity as I can.
[26.07.2022 21:50:39] Nenet.Mido: Did I show up in the middle of a stand-off?
[26.07.2022 21:51:04] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Perhaps yes, perhaps not.
[26.07.2022 21:51:21] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Was this your doing, Chrysanthemums?
[26.07.2022 21:51:25] Nenet.Mido: I'm just going by looks here.
[26.07.2022 21:51:31] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Was what our doing?
[26.07.2022 21:51:31] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: This one seems rather docile for a KNF captain
[26.07.2022 21:51:49] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I assure you, docile is not the word I would use to describe me.
[26.07.2022 21:51:58] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I simply know when it is not the time for antagonism.
[26.07.2022 21:52:22] Nenet.Mido: 2 to 1 odds are not something you'd play I reckon.
[26.07.2022 21:52:32] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: which why docile is the correct term to describe you at the moment
[26.07.2022 21:52:37] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: If you haven't noticed, I've been two-to-one the entire time. I do not believe the fight is impossible, but it is a
[26.07.2022 21:52:40] IKN-Kiyohime: risk, to understate it.
[26.07.2022 21:54:10] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: A risk, yes.
[26.07.2022 21:54:15] Nenet.Mido: Welp, have fun staring at eachother.
[26.07.2022 21:54:24] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Arigato.
[26.07.2022 21:54:25] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: But risks come with the proffesion you chose
[26.07.2022 21:54:27] Nenet.Mido: Friendly advice, the more you wait, the more shows up.
[26.07.2022 21:54:45] Nenet.Mido: At least that's how it goes in Liberty.
[26.07.2022 21:54:47] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: If.. it is a fight you want, Chrysanthemums, then we are right here and ready.
[26.07.2022 21:54:53] Nenet.Mido: Might be better, might be worse over here.
[26.07.2022 21:55:26] Nenet.Mido: That was the wrong direction.
[26.07.2022 21:55:55] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I must confess my curiosity as to precisely why you have not yet seized the initiative.
[26.07.2022 21:56:12] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I'll leave that call to you, Yume-san.
[26.07.2022 21:56:30] IKN-Kiyohime: *A smile briefly tugs at Matsuda's lips, breaking her composure*
[26.07.2022 21:57:10] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Because unlike you naval types, I pick my own targets
[26.07.2022 21:57:51] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: That does not answer my question, it simply states your methodology.
[26.07.2022 21:58:01] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: And that is enough
[26.07.2022 21:58:22] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: You are remarkably cryptic, when you want to be.
[26.07.2022 21:58:33] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I am aware
[26.07.2022 21:58:55] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: But do not test me. My current status of inaction can change
[26.07.2022 21:59:13] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Heh. Don't mind us. We're just docile.
[26.07.2022 21:59:25] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Just because we have a chance doesn't mean it's a good one.
[26.07.2022 22:00:27] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Power lies in control. In both action and inaction. Just because you can doesn't mean you must
[26.07.2022 22:02:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Hai. That much is true.
[26.07.2022 22:02:49] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And yet I do not see the reasoning for your abstaining engagement
[26.07.2022 22:03:04] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Well. I have one theory but I deem it currently unlikely.
[26.07.2022 22:04:02] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: You can have your theories
[26.07.2022 22:04:31] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I cannot help but notice that the Murasaki has been absent in this.. discussion
[26.07.2022 22:05:04] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I have been.
[26.07.2022 22:05:19] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I already mentioned that I am not the commanding officer of this ship. She is currently missing.
[26.07.2022 22:05:26] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Hai. Good to know that you are still awake.
[26.07.2022 22:05:28] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I don't have the authority to make decisions.
[26.07.2022 22:05:37] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I am carefully listening in on everything.
[26.07.2022 22:06:31] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I see. Fascinating.
[26.07.2022 22:08:30] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Hinohara-san, what is you ship's status?
[26.07.2022 22:09:00] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: All systems are green. Shields are online, engines and thrusters are operational, weaponry's online.
[26.07.2022 22:09:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: That a threat?
[26.07.2022 22:09:34] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Reactor isn't- [Yuuko pauses to have a quick look around] Reactor is.. operational.
[26.07.2022 22:10:01] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Copy that
[26.07.2022 22:10:34] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: So, planning on finally making your move?
[26.07.2022 22:10:44] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I specifically am not -planning- anything.
[26.07.2022 22:11:11] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Alright, then I am moving out. Unless you need assistance removing this possible threat
[26.07.2022 22:11:31] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: It will not be necessary.
[26.07.2022 22:11:40] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I can deal with the Destroyer myself if it's needed.
[26.07.2022 22:11:49] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I'm.. not sure I can quite let a destroyer roam free around the system
[26.07.2022 22:12:06] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Risk or no risk.
[26.07.2022 22:12:06] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Alright, keep yourself and the Murasaki in one piece
[26.07.2022 22:12:24] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Of course.
[26.07.2022 22:12:49] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Gomen nasai. You cannot be allowed to leave.
[26.07.2022 22:13:02] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Disrupt this vessel again and you got another thing to worry about
[26.07.2022 22:13:28] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Very well.
[26.07.2022 22:13:31] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I already told you. You are too big a risk to let roam free.
[26.07.2022 22:13:48] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Battle stations
[26.07.2022 22:13:57] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Hai. So be it.
[26.07.2022 22:14:05] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Perhaps this one didnt get the hint before
[26.07.2022 22:14:05] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Is our assistance required, Yume-san?
[26.07.2022 22:14:29] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: You know the ship status. Think hinohara-san
[26.07.2022 22:14:33] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Hai.
[26.07.2022 22:14:38] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Weapon systems ready to fire.
[26.07.2022 22:14:47] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Gunnery, fire when in range.
[26.07.2022 22:20:54] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Bit off more than you could chew huh?
[26.07.2022 22:21:26] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: If you are to finish us, get it over with.
[26.07.2022 22:22:14] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: I believe we've passed the message through, Yume-san.
[26.07.2022 22:22:22] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Why? do you crave death so much?
[26.07.2022 22:23:05] GC-Akechi-kan: Remember what I said about power? Just that you can doesn't mean that you must
[26.07.2022 22:23:31] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And yet you have nothing to gain from not completing your victory
[26.07.2022 22:24:13] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Then what exactly is there to gain? We made our point
[26.07.2022 22:24:23] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: And what point is that.
[26.07.2022 22:25:05] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: GC is more merciful than the Kusari government
[26.07.2022 22:25:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: I did not ask for your mercy.
[26.07.2022 22:25:55] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: So you comdemn your crew to death for your pride?
[26.07.2022 22:26:29] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: As a captain you are responsible for more people than just yourself
[26.07.2022 22:26:42] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Do not lecture me on my own job..
[26.07.2022 22:26:59] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: However.. you may be right. For some aboard, it is not their time.
[26.07.2022 22:27:33] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: Cruise away and let us all go our merry way, Kiyohime.
[26.07.2022 22:27:47] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: Then take them home. And considder the reasons what got them almost killed
[26.07.2022 22:27:58] IKN-Kiyohime: *Matsuda sighs* The admiralty will have my head for this.
[26.07.2022 22:28:07] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: So be it.
[26.07.2022 22:28:19] IKN-Kiyohime: Matsuda: Better me than them.
[26.07.2022 22:28:28] GC-Murasaki-kan: Hinohara: If the admiralty expects the Kiyohime to take down two cruisers then perhaps you need to re-think who you work for.
[26.07.2022 22:29:45] GC-Akechi-kan: Yume: I didn't want the Akechi to go into serious combat just yet, but she held out nicely
