"This is the captain of the Gallic Brigands gunboat designated Kamelot, I know, silly name. But! The case at hand, my fellows, is a group of Sirians who are being quite the ill-tempered bunch in Council territory. Sure, they were fighting Royalist scum, though the fact as my crew provided help, we were fired upon heavily by Sirian weaponry. I made the attempt to call out for the fools to stop, though eventually, I was forced to inform the gunners all Sirian targets were hostile. After we destroyed one ship, the other two retreated a small distance away.
"A Council pilot, one I did not have the honor of getting the name of responded to my calls at sector E-6, and informed them of their 'trespass' and informed them to leave. Of course, the Sirians refused and after stating a firmer position, the Sirians fired upon him. Unfortunately his ship was disabled and I towed him back to Planet Quillan to your safety. This was of course after destroying the other two vessels in assistance and vengeance. I trust your pilot will receive good care there, as for me and my crew, since we know our kind are not openly welcome, vacated Quillan after delivering your pilot. I believe we have sufficient gun-cam images of the postmortem of combat, I suppose the pilot's ID tags are displayed there, yes. Send them the data parcel, Percy."
We had thought many battles by your side, Gallic Brigands were supporting us since beginning of this conflict. That is why we will always respond on your distress call.
This pilot was my younger brother he joined us recently and is not one of our best pilots but he is a brave one. We will honour him for his actions.
Your assist and dedication is noticed so you are welcome to sped your holiday on Quillan. As for Sirians who did not respect our law and openly disobey direct command we will act accordingly to this situation.
Au revoir!

Tenno, Masaru, and SuperNova... hmm, I'll have to spread the word. If Council has any concerns about openly killing Sirians (even if they deserve it) just give us a call and we'll take care of it along the usual arrangements. We protect our friends.
