It seems like we will have to talk about why the Recon Cruiser Kerimov, given to you as a gift,
was misused and used to attack the Corsairs in Gamma. Perhaps some conditions that were
on the ship have been forgotten so we must discuss them again.
You have seen Premier, but the question is, what do you plan to do about it? Questions linger.
Who was flying that ship, knowing full well the Resheph is hardly a warship? I suppose
my predecessor has made a few errors, but we shall have to review what conditions
go with the ship again.
The Resheph, is a Recon cruiser, not a warship. It is not meant to be used in hostilities against
any human targets, save Wilde and Nomad targets, or in self defense. It is a ship whose
power lies in it's advanced technology, that allows you to see threats from far away and react
accordingly. Please keep those conditions in mind.

I am endeavouring, on my end, to find out exactly who was responsible for this affair. Once I know, the Commissariat will deal with them swiftly.
The question I need to ask, at this point, is are the Corsairs pressing the Order for war, is this incident the catalyst of something much larger... or is it the sole reason of Corsair aggression against the Order?
The Duma has discussed the Order-Corsair problem, and we are worried that the problems will escalate into an armed conflict, despite your best diplomatic efforts. The Corsairs have gained a taste for blood over Freeport 9, and they feel that they are in a position of strength.
I worry about our friends in the Omicrons, because if the Corsairs want war they will find an excuse. If not this one, then certainly some other reason. Would you not be better served by taking a stronger stance against them?

I maintain, as a personal opinion, that the current leadership of the corsairs are all idiots.
They press forward eagerly, not knowing their limitations and their enemy's strength, and
this will prove to be their downfall.
We in the Order have anticipated this turn of events long ago, and here it is rather a point of our
existence. We are the protectors of Humanity Premier. Our first, and foremost priority, were, and
are nomads and related parties. We cannot afford wars with anyone else, and it is against
*everything* we stand for. That is all I have to say on this matter.
If war comes, we must face it like we have all wars, but we must do all we can to prevent
more bloodshed, and more cases of humanity destroying itself. Aren't the Nomads enough?

War, it appears, is on everyone's doorstep this day. On the old calendar, Advent has began and here on Volgograd people are preparing for Christmas. It used to be that this was a time of peace, love and harmony. I wonder what has happened to humanity to push us this far.
It is easy to hate the Corsairs for what they are, but too readily people forget what they could become. I think... I hope they will learn temperance given time.
As for the Coalition, you know where we stand, as always. We are with you on the thin blue line, and I reaffirm my commitment there. There is a far graver threat than the Corsairs out there, and our job is to support you, not to hinder your cause.
