The Courtroom bustled with activity once more with countless robes looking for a place to sit, having been summoned to the short briefing by The Shogunate. Most of the eyes were fixed on a senior official dressed in the Shogunate robes.
"Pilots, warriors. In accordance to yesterday's events, The Shogunate has decided to decree a new set of directives, aimed at containing the increased threat on display in Tohoku yesterday. Most of the directives, which I'm about to read out loud, are merely extensions of already existing policies of formal and unformal variety. Yesterday's events shed some new light on the nature of certain... Beings we're forced to deal with and so The Shogunate, in their eternal wisdom, deemed it necessary to set some new directives in stone, as it were:
Quote:
SHOGUNATE OF THE RISING SONS DIRECTIVES 158498
By the order of the Shogunate, the following directives shall be applied henceforth:
Regarding the increased alien and allied presence in Dragon space recently:
All Outcast vessels found in Kusari without direct Golden Chrysantemum escort are to be terminated without prejudice should a reliable counter to the said vessels be present in space.
The Shogunate furthermore expects pilots of the Rising Sons to sever all personal ties with the Outcasts, as The Shogunate finds the entire population of Malta suspected of collaboration with alien species commonly known as "Nomads".
All vessels, belonging to the organisation known as "Samarran Raiders" found in Kusari are to be terminated without prejudice should a reliable counter to the said vessels be present in space.
Do not expect any quarter from the aformentioned groups, as well as the blue demons, as the very concept of honour is as alien to them as they are to us.
Minor update regarding The Rising Sons' contraband policies:
All Quantum Multiplexors exported from and transported within Kusari space are to be considered contraband. Any Transports found hauling the aformentioned goods suspected to originate within Kusari are to be ordered to drop the said goods and destroyed should they fail to comply.
This set of directives will be transmitted through The Kyoto Network briefing terminals so that the warriors that could not participate on this briefing today could receive them as well. That would be all for now."
