if you don't mind, we would like to give you a little sidenote about a possibly missing part of technology from you. On our daily patrols through the Tau systems, we had an encounter with one of your vessels, though, tagged with an Outcast ID.
We think, that it's wise to tell you about that, since Zoner technology shouldn't be harmed by fights, not related to the Zoners. It was a cruiser of the class "Corvo" and attacked us as soon as we were attacking other Outcast forces.
To prove that, I will upload the visual data about the incident from a ship of ours.
This is Captain Vorandril of the Mantarok. I urge any Zoners within the Tau systems to make sure this incident is not tolerated if repeated, and if able to arrest guilty captain and crews to do so.
I will say this Mister Rowe, when submitting information, also submit evidence to show you were not in fact the initiators. You admit to being the initiators in this case and as such the Corvo is in the right to defend itself and its allies. You instigated the fight and this is not a zoner concern. Do NOT repeat this mistake. It personally sounds such that the corvo escaped you and you are attempting to keep it from mooring for repairs at a freeport. Choose your reply quite carefully, Mr. Rowe.
This all being said-
I ask any freeport admin to check their records to make sure this corvo was aquired through legitimate means. If there is a rogue exploratory vessel then there are many issues to address ranging from reaquiring the vessel, to determining how someone misplaces a CRUISER.
Fighting to your last breath is a benchmark, not a goal.
Thank you for sending this information our way. If this vessel endangers your life or the life of another - do not hesitate to defend yourselves. Destruction of the vessel will not cause any ill will from us.
So... you said Mr. Rowe, Vorandril, whoever the hell you think you are. And here's THE real Mr. Rowe. I will include the voice logs to prove that we were NOT the ones who started the fight.
The case is this, these outcasts were plaguing Tau 23, causing trouble for the miners we are working with. To stop them we scrambled a Vigilante wing, and started taking down the trouble making outcasts. I must say, there were already enough trouble there, with two tridentes, one sabre and one bomber. We didn't seek out another one to shoot just to make more trouble for us. While we were shooting them down, this clever Outcast captain with a Zoner vessel decided it should be a right idea to engage US, not the other way around.
Here, have a look at this, from your Mr. Rowe.

To conclude this, we don't seek any help from you or anything. We are being polite here and informing you about the possible theft of your technology, Vorandril, so you have no right to go clever on my ass. Do what the hell you want with this info.
