Selim.

Practicality is only ever so appealing to the gullible nature of a human mind. A rusted shell ferrying forth the Coalition's banner and her people paints an ill picture of the cause underneath all that festering metal. The Sector must look to us for martial elegance. To make artwork of violence is no small feat, and I have no intention of commissioning a liner that cannot fend for itself beside glittering in a manner that might be construed as offensive.

Consider this to be an exacting demand. But the project must conclude with the successful production of a vessel that not only exemplifies our superiority in visuals, but can roar down upon the enemy with all the ruthlessness that is characteristic of the Coalition. When the crew of the Stirling or any other misguided assembly of degenerates choke to death in the void, I want them to die with a glitter in the eye. Not merely from the hull of an overly funded art project, but a warship with all the grace and pride that we must strive to represent.

Title it the Prejudice.
