Private correspondence

Back to Bretonia once more. I can't tell anymore how many times did I venture in that House. Almost feels like another home, in a way. Perhaps a safer one, even, which is strange; I should feel safer where I was born, having been taught this complex code of conduct confusing so much foreigners. No matter, Father's shadow will always be cast upon me.

I Decided to go ahead and deal with it personally, since that comm never seemed to go through. Met that boy; Chapman. He sounded decent enough. He was suspicious at first, but he eventually reluctantly allowed me to assist him. We stopped a Borderworld Exports transport in Cambridge system. That was quite a weird situation, as I used to work for Bowex in ExSec, and be actually paid to shoot pirates and protect convoys.

Everything changes.

Spent the night on Freeport 1, Omega 3 system. The place is dirty, and full of sinister faces. Your typical Freeport. I decided to return to Kusari in the morning. Didn't leave a message to Ishikawa and didn't want him to worry. After having made a quick run to his flat on New Tokyo, I departed. The bed was still warm. I must have missed him by a matter of minutes.

Chapman was requiring my help in New London. We attempted to stop a BMM ship near Dublin Jump-gate. Chapman's ship exploded. I gracefully tractor-ed the pod and carried it to Freeport 1.
I forget to mention that stalker, John. Still following me like a little puppy. That's cute. He began to yell when we started to shoot in New London system. Looks like he feels his duty is to protect me. Even from myself.

Chapman minding his own business inside the Freeport, I followed the stalker to Aland Shipyard. Something big was happening nearby. Plenty of Aliens. I assisted IMG and some people known as Auxesia there.

It's only after I returned to the Freeport and some Auxesia proposed me an exchange I found out the Marauder's hold contained something peculiar. Some Jump-hole generator parts (?). The Auxesia A.I. offered me 250 millions of Sirian credits for it; an offer I declined. Gaians showed quite some interest for it as well, and were willing me to give it to them.

I flew away and waited for the activity near the Freeport to calm down before docking. I hope the place I hid it will not be discovered until I decide what to do with that material.

I'm torn. On one hand, Gaians mentioned handing it to them would be a huge step forward to achieving my objective. On the other hand... I perfectly know this is the kind of material I should be bringing right away to Yokosuka... I will take a few hours to try making up my mind about what should be done.

Oh. One last thing. I shot Bretonia Armed Forces to end this eventful day... A wing showed up near Freeport 1, and they began to bully Chapman. Mentioned I would charge them if they attacked him, which eventually happened.
Graves was the first to be downed. I offered him to stand down, but he declined, not willing to leave his commander alone. Had to destroy the ship. We stopped to shoot as I asked Fire if his wing-man was alright.

He refused to leave, however. I decided to propose him a deal to settle things. A duel. If he won, I'd pay him 6 millions of Sirian credits. We fought. Fire did his best but eventually had to eject..

Dropped the two pods on Freeport 1. I hope they will be fine. There was a time when I would have killed Bretonians with pleasure, just to satisfy my desire for vengeance... But that time is long gone. I can only hope they are not too injured and will listen to my advices next time.

I have to say those BAF pilots deserve respect. They never stop to fight. They keep going till the very end. That's perhaps foolish, but quite noble too, in a way.

That said, things will certainly start to become tense for me in Bretonia. No doubt they will report my actions to their superiors.
