Konbanwa.

Here is a late report regarding the events that occurred in House Rheinland several weeks ago, since I have been ordered to explicitly detail it for High Command.
I took the assignment related with patrolling the Sigmas. Said assignment quickly lead me to Frankfurt system, where I proceeded with enforcing Rheinlandic laws, as allowed by the treaty between Kusari and Rheinland.
As I was moving towards New Berlin Jump-gate, I caught a weak signal, seemingly coming from Sudnebel nebula. It appeared to be a distress signal, which I followed until I reached a singularity. I decided to use that singularity to check if there was not someone looking for assistance on the other side.

Ended up in Dresden system, where I met Great Admiral Sterr Driedrik, who was quite surprised to see me here. He however allowed me to stay and assist him in the many tasks he had to attend to that day, which were mostly about dealing with the Red Hessians threat in Dresden system.

As a side note, it appears the situation in Dresden system is quite concerning. The infrastructures in Dresden seem to have suffered a lot, and the system looks like a crude war-zone. The puts things in perspective, when one compares it to the situation we are facing in Kyushu system. Rheinland seems to have suffered a lot from the war with Liberty.

Regardless, we could discuss with Sterr-san between assignments. He appears to be very dedicated to his duty, as if nothing else mattered. He told me he was spending most of his time in Dresden system, fighting the Red Hessians to protect Rheinland civilians from this growing menace. A competent member of Rheinland Military Admiralty, without doubt.

Sterr-san being forced to attend to others matters, he eventually allowed me to stay for a short while on New Berlin, which I did, before returning to Kusari.

That said, I'd like to take advantage of this transmission to humbly request a short sabbatical. I sadly have to take care of personal matters, which may force me to leave Kusari for a short while.

I do hope this request will not be a burden for the Admiralty. I personally made sure flight rotations wouldn't be impacted by this unforeseen event. Commander Kitagaki Takashi has gracefully accepted to look after my squadron while I will be away.
