The Yellow Brick Road [ Coalition + Mollys & Perhaps Hessians ]

[Blodwyn O'Driscoll]

The woman listened to the Premier carefully. Upon hearing his last statement, she even seemed worried, going pale as she put her hand on her upper chest.
Once he finished, the woman clad in an ecru dress remained silent for while as she was thinking to herself :
Three years ? dhat couldn't be ! Un' dhat would imply we'd have tae face a greater force oif deh Coalition fell. Deh 'Sars could e'en fancy pushin' further into Dublin o' Derry. Dey moight e'en troy tae woipe oos aout fer good !
Blodwyn shivered on that last thought, but also managed to calm a bit down as she carried on her thinking :
" O' maybe d'Coalition would loike tae save deir strengths, usin' oos as cannon fodders, loike d'Brets did wid oos before...
Oh... oy dunno what tae tink, oy ain't nae hardened politician, un' dhis man ability tae hoide his though un' feelings, doesn't help mae ad all.
C'mon lass, ye got tae say sumting. Do what ye do best, Blod'; just talk...


Finally, when she managed to pull herself together, the red-haired woman cleared her throat and started to talk, looking at him straight in the eyes.

Oy's sorry fer deh delay, oy was lost in mae thoughts.
So, errr... dhis is indeed bad news dhat ye bring, Premier Warner.
Oy dunno really what tae say but dhat we should work on improving deh situation, maybe turning the whole things around in aour favor.

Still, oy won't denoy dhat oy was koind o' surproised hearing what ye had tae say. Oy though deh Coalition would be able to stand its ground against deh 'Sars in deh close Omegas, aloike aour Hessians allies did fer years !
But oy also tink ye did d'roight ting boye tellin' oos deh truth 'bout the reality of deh situation.

What can oy add ?
Well, as ye already know because we talked about it before, we also add to suffer recently frem deh 'Sars assaults, especially dhat raid on Londonderry, in January 822AS dhat cost oos deh loss o' Garvagh, aour foundry. E'en oif we managed tae get it back easely, dhis event showed oos aour weaknesses in aour defensoive system.
Derefore, we, deh council, suggested deh possibility o' fortifying deh Barrier Nebula in Omega fourty-noine. Dhis project, oif e'er voted un' carried aout, would provoide oos a far bedder ability to defend aourselves against deh 'Sar threat.
Maybe e'en a good staging point to harrass Corsairs forces in order tae help bodh deh Coalition un' aour common allies, deh Hessians in deir struggle in deh omegas.
Howe'er, dhis would requoire oos tae constantly weaken deh 'sars presence in omega fourty noine.

Widh dhis in moind, oy would suggest tae start setting up joint raiding parties tae grind deir forces little boye little until we would be foinally able tae throw dem aout once un' fer all.
