Kamisu Hideout is a small underground outpost of the Farmers Alliance on Hikari. Originally, the Farmers Alliance operated a station inside the Hiryo Cloud but due to its location being compromised during the Sigma-59 conflict, the Farmers Alliance with aid of Samura decommissioned the space station and started to establish a planet-side hideout.
The hideout reached fully operational status in 829 A.S. and since serves as Farmers Alliance's answer to the growing number of Synth Foods convoys arriving from Rheinland.

| [834 AS] Treachery in Rheinland! |
|
DARMSTADT -- 834 -- The ungrateful dogs in the LWB have betrayed our common cause. After one of theirs murdered an honorable Alliance technician on Darmstadt, we arrested the perpetrator to answer for her crime. In response, the LWB attacked the prison transport and drove our officers off their bases. Effective immediately, the Elders have diverted all resources and funds out of Rheinland to focus on the struggle in Kusari. Our Benefactor is greatly displeased by these events and has summoned Commander Hiroki Osaka to answer for his failures. The Elders have agreed that we must move forward with our plans for Shikoku immediately to prove our worth and atone for this shameful debacle. |
| [834 AS] Alliance mourns death of Rheinland commander |
|
KAGOSHIMA -- 834 -- The Alliance mourns the loss of Naoaki Kurita, the senior FA commander dispatched to oversee our Rheinland subordinates. This theater has recently claimed many Kusari lives in our war against Synth Foods. The Rheinlanders have blamed these deaths on increased activity by Synth’s corporate lapdogs -- the RFP and Bounty Hunters’ Guild. Kurita is believed to have been traveling through the Cologne System to order the LWB assets stationed there back to Stuttgart. He was intercepted by RFP patrols and fought to the honorable death rather than surrendering. |
| [834 AS] Synth under pressure in Rheinland |
|
KAGOSHIMA -- 834 -- The Rheinlanders have foolishly thrown their doors wide open to Gallic trade, having learnt nothing from their history. Gallia unexpectedly secured the removal of controls on agricultural exports; large-scale shipments have already begun through Zurich and Cologne. Synth has been forced to drastically lower their prices in response. We have prohibited our LWB subordinates from targeting these Gallic shipments as they are a useful weapon against Synth Foods’ profits. While the immediate impact on Stuttgart’s independent farmers is unfortunate, this is a necessary evil for the defeat of the Synth menace in Kusari. |
| [833 AS] Kishiro Betrays the Kusari People |
|
KAMISU -- 833 -- Kishiro has once again shown its true colors by striking an alliance with the foul foreigners, Synth Foods. The two seek to exploit the Kusari people during a moment of tragedy, following the storms on Kyushu that damaged the exports of nutritious, traditional foodstuffs. We have ordered our subordinates in Rheinland to step up attacks on Synth exports towards the Sigmas, as well as scaling our own attacks within Kusari on both Synth and Kishiro. In the coming months we intend to repeat the victory at Roppongi by delivering another deadly message to Deshima Station, striking fear into invaders and traitors alike. We shall strike as soon as the necessary supplies have been procured. |
| [833 AS] Kyushu Faces Rising Temperatures And Falling Profits |
|
Kyushu, the key to Samura's monopoly on the organically-grown food industry, has faced rising ocean temperatures lately, owing to a vast temperature surge in the mantle plume underneath its largest ocean. This has been compounded by the resultant eruption of several underwater volcanoes, releasing enormous quantities of greenhouse gases into the planet's atmosphere. Partially as a result of the geological activity, the equatorial monsoon season produced some of the strongest tropical storms ever recorded on Kyushu since its colonisation. These storms devastated the world's agricultural sector as they blew through the most fertile tropical lowlands, destroying as much as 20%% of the planet's annual crop yield, on top of damage to infrastructure and tragic loss of human life. Many rural communities are reported to be struggling, with some farming communities still remaining flooded ghost towns even a month after the worst of the storms abated, though smaller-scale tempests still rage around the equator. A Samura spokesperson outlined the company's intent to restore the planet and its communities to full productivity by the middle of next year, despite the ongoing circumstance. |
| [832 AS] Battleship Matsuda Meets Its Demise! |
|
It had long been rumored that the grand Battleship Himeji had not been lost in the Tohoku system as previously thought; That it had been brought back and given a second life by the unlawful elements that are the antithesis of the Kusari state. This rumor had been proven true as the Kusari Office of Intelligence reported movements of a Meiji-class Battleship in the Kyushu system, deploying Golden Chrysanthemum fighter wings that seemed to deliberately target Kusari patrols in the northern part of the system. Immediately upon learning of this, Battleship Matsumoto and its battlegroup were redeployed from Hokkaido, and within two days were poised and ready to face this new threat. Only a short few hours later, a patrol of fighters reported a warship with the transponder reading Battleship Matsuda operating in the relative open, heading for but not yet reaching the relative safety of the Seiran Dust Cloud. Matsumoto itself departed with its escort to confront the Chrysanthemum battleship, close to the edge of the nebula. Within minutes of it coming into sensor range, bomber and fighter squadrons from both sides closed in and opening salvos were exchanged between the battleships. It didn't take long before the KNF's preparation was shown to be well worthwhile; their superior numbers whittled down or otherwise preoccupied the Chrysanthemum's fighter force leaving a variety of openings in the Matsuda's defensive cover for KNF bombers to exploit. While the Matsumoto was withstanding a heavy beating from the guns of its older sister, it was plain that the Matsuda was slowly being whittled away as its shields began to fail and the very same engine design flaws that had rendered it immobile in KNF service were now exploited by bomber wings to once again cripple the warship. After several more minutes, the Matsuda's escape pods began to eject from the ailing battleship, picked up by Chrysanthemum fighters as they fled deeper into the Seiran dust cloud. It didn't take long thereafter for the ship's powercore to falter and fail completely, culminating in a vast explosion that reportedly almost turned night to day on the dark side of Planet Kyushu, if only for a split second. Matsumoto itself sustained moderate damage in the engagement, relatively untouched by Chrysanthemum bombers however still suffering the ill effects of Matsuda's anti-capital weaponry. Despite its damage, it remains deployed in the Kyushu system to continue the blockade of the cardamine trade and to serve as a show of force to any who would challenge the might of the Emperor. |
| [832 AS] On the Nose |
|
NEW TOKYO -- 832 AS -- Multiple tips from unknown sources have aided, upon investigation, in exposing the abuse of Cardamine between numerous members of the Kusari Keiretsu. Intense work hours have pushed both the youths and the senior citizens towards the consumption of the drug, which is more readily available than ever before, partially due to the foreigner presence upon Roppongi Station. However, with the recent Farmers Alliance bombing on Roppongi seemingly linked to the sudden increase in Cardamine use among Kusari's businessmen, New Tokyo's residents have expressed sympathy towards the perpetrators, speculating that the Alliance's blatant admission to such a vicious act is not to be taken as a boast or a threat, but as a sign that they will not allow their friends and families to be preyed upon by the greed of corporations that, "do not belong anywhere near our home", said Katsuyori Ichihara, Samura Industries financial consultant, and survivor of the Roppongi attack. "I don't blame them", Mr. Ichihara continued, "that vile drug destroys families." Due to recent events, Samura Industries has taken it upon itself to act as a substitute for Interspace Commerce within the insurance market and many citizens have already expressed gratitude to Samura and their willingness to provide more financially preferable contracts than what the old management offered. |
| [832 AS] A Foul Wind |
|
KYUSHU -- 833 AS -- Ravaged by the worst cyclonic storm in recorded history, Kyushu's bustling food production has been thrown into total disarray. Local authorities are struggling to address the infrastructure damage that has been caused by not only the heavy rain, but strong wind and violently surging tide. Even with the storm having passed and dissipated, the full extent of damage is unknown. Missing persons reports are flowing in and the police finds itself too preoccupied with rising unrest given the looming threat of a critical food shortage. What was otherwise expected to be a bountiful harvest now only offers grim tidings. In an uncharacteristic move, many of the Farmers Collectives are putting out calls for aid and promising generous dividends to people with the necessary resources and expertise. This is likely the only way the local economy will recover, faced with dwindling stockpiles an power outages should the measures of the Collectives and the Government fail. |
| [832 AS] ALG pose unexpected threat |
|
KAGOSHIMA DEPOT -- 832 -- The blow dealt to the Liberty intruders on Roppongi Station was a great victory for the people of Kusari. Roppongi peddled foreign filth to New Tokyo’s youth, contaminating them with Synth Paste and Cardamine. Unfortunately, this great victory now poses a threat to our future. ALG Waste Disposal is currently negotiating for a contract to decontaminate and dismantle the wreckage. Our benefactors have advised that this operation could reveal the source of the fissile material used in the attack. This is unacceptable for our long term objectives, and must be prevented at all costs. ALG must now be considered a priority target across Kusari. |
| [831 AS] Jump Hole Upheaval Causes Chaos |
|
HEISENBERG -- 831 AS -- Jump holes across Sirius have become increasingly volatile and chaotic over the last year, with Professor Sophia Nagel from the Heisenberg Research Station linking the unusual phenomena to the Pulse. The Pulse was an unprecedented blast of hyperspace energy that was detected immediately prior to last year's jump gate Blackout. Professor Nagel and her team are certain the Pulse originated from outside Sirius, but are otherwise no closer to identifying its source or mitigating a future Blackout event. "Following the Blackout, we began to see immediate signs of jump hole destabilization in multiple different regions, with many ultimately falling out of phase alignment altogether", she commented. The dramatic upending of Sirius' jump hole network has already prompted many groups to abandon stations and withdraw from systems that appear to risk being cut off. While months-long trips between the stars are possible thanks to the Liberty Engine and many centuries of innovation, few ships are designed or provisioned to make such arduous journeys. Those who were displaced by Sirius' redrawn map hope that system connections will return, while adventurers and explorers rush to discover new routes. |
| [801 AS] Kusari imposes embargo on Rheinland |
|
NEW TOKYO -- 801 -- Shogun Edo has announced that a full economic embargo of Rheinland will be imposed by Kusari due to the outrages of the Colony Wars. Liberty’s President Jacobi has taken a leading role in mediation between Rheinland and the other Houses, with the Provisional Rheinland Government offering a message of condolence to the Kusari people for the actions of the toppled previous regime. Despite this, Kusari has remained resolute that no normalization of relations will be considered until full reparations are made for the devastation in Honshu and New Tokyo, and the many crimes Kusari alleges were perpetrated there. |
| [801 AS] Rheinland ends all hostilities |
|
FULDA -- 801 -- With the disappearance of Chancellor Niemann and the installation of the Liberty-backed Provisional Rheinland Government, an immediate cessation of all hostilities has been ordered. Rheinland forces have begun withdrawals on all fronts. Reports from Kusari have confirmed that the Northern Fleet has retreated from New Tokyo and Honshu, however it has not returned to Rheinland or recognized the authority of the PRG. Government sources believe the fleet may have deserted, with Rheinland's remaining loyalist security forces being ordered to high-alert as a precaution against pro-Niemann coup attempts. |
