To: The Crayterian Republic

To our esteemed allies of Coronado,

We regret to inform you that the Order has made their move and attacked our forces. While it occurred outside of your territory, we cannot tolerate their existence within the Independent Worlds. Their arrogance and ignorance, repeated provocation attempts and assaults have - until now - been ignored with candor for your people. Retaliation is under way.

With respect for the Crayter Republic, we retain our stance of non-aggression within the system of Coronado towards their forces as per your request. However, the Order's existence elsewhere in the Independent Worlds will not be tolerated. We ask as friends of the Republic and neighbors that you do not interfere with this conflict to maintain the relationship your people have with their organization.

With respect,

Curator Endurance & The Inner Phalanx
