Barrier Gate Station West Wing Pub, The Lone Drunkard - Omicron - 06-03-2011
'Well, I spent some time there and I can tell you about them. It is space just like a Liberty but they speak more funnier. Rheinland is scattered by a revolution, driven by union of four factions. Most peaceful and smallest of them all are Bundschuh movement, part of them known also as Volksfront and those are I bumped into. Have been working with one of their aktivists as they are calling themselves. Most of them are students, politcians. Very few of them actually are engineers or military guys as one I worked with was. What they believe in is that Rheinland should be true democracy with people being able to choose party to rule, with free speech and no censorships. Also they don't much care if they would win those elections or not, main purpouse is to give freedom. And their weapons are words.'

He nods.
"Sounds familiar, but what do I have tae do wi' it? I ain' no Rheinlander, I want Liberty fixed, not Rheinland."

'That is simple. Make friends, receive a secure and safe port in case of problems. Also meeting them is not bad idea considering you have lots of common. I know shortcut that leads fast to Liberty border, through jumpholes. And... what do you have to loose? Travelling teach people and humans learn whole life.'
She drinks a bit of her water awaiting respond.

Kate heard the woman talking.

Looks quite bemused by the new arival, sitting down with Tharog also, straightening her uniform as she does.
"Rhiendland are the enemy. They started a war with Librety, not our fault if they can't back it up"

"I've fought in that war. Both are equally responsible. But it are not the pilots there, it are the leaders. The admirals, the kanzler all o' those guys."
He looked at Scarlet.

"Ahem, technicaly I'm one of 'The Admirals'"
She sighs for a moment. And peers at Tharog.
"But I want liberty fixed too"

Martina was not that kind about Scarlet statement.
'Let me ask you one question. Are you waging war against people who are responsible for this, or whole nation? Not every Libertonian or Rheinlander wanted that war. I doubt those who wanted were majority. War is worse than hell, because in hell there are no innocents.'
Takes another sip of water.

"War is one of those neccacary evils. Every great technilogical advancement has come about indirectly or directly through war"
She stalks over the the Barkeep and demands a drink, another blue one, of something, and then walks back to the two, setting the drink carefully down on the table.
"Innocents get killed, yeah, life's like that. People die, every damned day. It's survival of the fittest, and its how species survive"

'You have not answered my question. You do fight responsible for it, or you do want to kill every Rheinlander you see? Conflict have lots of meaning. It can varying from peaceful competition to total war. This is not surviving of the best. This is a pure luck that bomb won't hit you this time. And what if those worse will be you or... your family?'
