thank you for the clarifications and the tactical analysis of the situation in Delta. I'm sadly not a great strategist in terms of politics and combat. Maybe more experience in those terms could have helped me be a better administrator. Maybe this all could have been avoided. But we don't have the time to look at the maybes of the past. I feel like I need to apologize to you personally for my self-exiling. On one hand it feels like I took the easy way, leaving the battlefield and leaving my friends in the Omicrons behind. It probably looks like that to many people.
On the other hand, Golanski has completely lost it. He is absolutely reckless. I wish his threats were nothing more than barking. We all knows the Grand Admiral likes his speeches, probably more than anyone else. However Freeport 11 was victim of a NEMP attack already. The last time, people took it as an instrument to jump head-first into the war with the Core, who then crushed them. An absolute desaster. So many people died for one damn installation. The Core back then had the decency to limit the war to one system. The Order however makes a difference here. They have allied with the Wild and the Corsairs. Other than the Core, Order and Corsairs have a rather large zone of influence. You can bet either of them have the ability to create NEMP weaponry. They are easy to create. You probably know how easy it is.
I must admit, I don't care whethey they use those weapons on Freeport 11 or any other freeport. Golanski mentioned he would go as far as to use those weapons of mass destruction on my home world, Gran Canaria. I believe a man of your position knows the political history of the Omegas. Gran Canaria knows planetary bombardements already, as three years ago, the Corsairs under the lead of Ladron and Beltran did it already. They have access to Omega-49. They can bring the Order there. And NEMP weaponry. Dirty bombs, aimed at innocent people who never got even remotely involved into any of this. Hell, right now refugees from Sirian battlegrounds are moved to Canaria. From Gallia, Bretonia, even from Munich. Where should all those people go when they turn the atmosphere into an inferno of radiation?
No, something like that I can't risk, not for my sake. I'm just a single man, a business man, former Advisor of OSI. I won't risk my planet, not for a station, not for one system in the Omicrons. There are other people with more experience and skill to deal in diplomacy. And I hope those people will come to Freeport 11 and help and prevent the worst case scenario. And I hope they will help you and you help them. We were so close to peace in Delta...
The only problem is Golanski. Right now, let him have his little victory. I'll find ways to support you, the Core and the Zoners in Delta. Ways that don't involve me directly. We'll bring down this madman.
