Konbanwa, Kaishō-ho Mochizuki,
Thank you for granting me permission.
The fine has been paid. It was not my intent to disobey naval orders. I did not want to get caught in the crossfire with that capital ship and risk my crew and the valuable goods my transport had in its hold. This will not happen again, please accept my apologies once more.
