Kansas System, Wichita Orbital R&D
Charles Alestone
Politics march on. The base seems to have suddenly been integrated into a state that did not exist when we embarked on this path. The Commonwealth of House Liberty has laid claim to Kansas, and regardless of their claims, the chronological descendants of the Liberty Navy have marched in, jack boots firmly in place, and reached for the biggest hammer they could grab.
As an opening communication, the base was threatened with destruction, we were all but convicted of being a smuggler's haven without trial or evidence and told that we would have to submit a building permit/request for a facility that predates the government that is making the demand.
My best hope at this time is that we can get status as a corporation and get some sort of exemption from their unilateral declaration of ownership of the entire system.
