" It shouldn't be that hard. Couple of Osprey squadrons on each Freeport, one or two Conference, a Corvo and a Fearless would be enough to hold their ground until reinforcements arrive. Put a Hyperspace Beacon on a Corvo, I mean... for crying out loud, even my Corvo has Beacon on it. Now all you need is to form a Zoner Self Defense Force, and I bet a lot of Zoners would gladly join in to defend their homes. " as if CoF would ever approve self-defense forces....

"We have access to all these ships, but we are not using to defend ourselves. Also... you were there when that LNS ship and the Bismark were near Freeport-11." Nerva's grip on the glass strenghtens.

"After trying to prevent anything bad happening to fellow Zoners, and also trying retrieve the Core pilots that were abducted by the LNS. What did I get? A kick in the *** from the Administrator. Even the Core capital ship's captain believed that I should be the only one to remain in the NFZ." the glass shatters in Nerva's hand.

"Oh, my... Herr Nerva, are you ok?" said Ulrich.
" I'm sorry for your glass, just add it to my bill." these new nano-thread gloves seem to work...
" You don't have to apologize. If someone threatened my home or my people, I would have done the same thing as you." said Ulrich while sliding over a new glass.

Nerva turns to Nodoka " I'm sorry, I got a bit carried away..." A Core Captain treated me better than a Freeport Administrator.
