Gallia, what happened to you? You used to bring me nice stuff.
Dauphine. I drifted into a Gallic navy patrol and I was hit by something. I have no idea what but it destroyed half my hull.
Then these guys showed up and ordered me to stop.
Code:
[07.05.2018 18:01:00] MRG|TL-Epervier: Nice lightshow, by the- CONTACT !
[07.05.2018 18:01:02] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Inbound.
[07.05.2018 18:01:27] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Stop right there.
[07.05.2018 18:01:28] Steiner.Petronius: Robert: Okay.
[07.05.2018 18:02:00] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Cut your engines, pilot.
[07.05.2018 18:02:01] Megaera: Did you shoot me?
[07.05.2018 18:02:11] Steiner.Petronius: Robert. This Aluminium Ore has been mined in Picardy. We're carrying it to New London.
[07.05.2018 18:02:26] Megaera: Someone shot me
[07.05.2018 18:02:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: To New London ?!
[07.05.2018 18:02:45] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: The junior pilot is a bit... trigger happy it seems
[07.05.2018 18:02:46] Steiner.Petronius: Robert: Montana. Scan the ship identified as "Megaera."
[07.05.2018 18:02:50] MRG|TL-Epervier: Who do you plan to sell it to ?
[07.05.2018 18:03:06] Megaera: You really should make up your mind
[07.05.2018 18:03:23] Steiner.Petronius: Robert: I am planning it to sell it to the Royal Navy Battleship.
[07.05.2018 18:03:27] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: Apologies, confusion in a friendly fire incident.
[07.05.2018 18:03:27] MRG|TL-Epervier: Ah !
[07.05.2018 18:03:31] MRG|TL-Epervier: Of course.
[07.05.2018 18:03:34] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: You shouldn't presume to tell the authority what to do. Where are your papers?
[07.05.2018 18:03:37] MRG|TL-Epervier: Sorry, we're all a little jumpy in here.
[07.05.2018 18:03:44] MRG|TL-Epervier: Then certainly, go ahead, monsieur.
[07.05.2018 18:03:45] Steiner.Petronius: Montana: Roger that. Scanning the target identified as "Megaera."
[07.05.2018 18:04:13] Steiner.Petronius: Robert: Thank you. Cheers.
[07.05.2018 18:04:14] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: What brings you to Gallia, pilot?
[07.05.2018 18:04:24] Megaera: Me?
[07.05.2018 18:04:26] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Oui.
[07.05.2018 18:04:31] MRG|TL-Epervier: Lieutenant, is the pilot in possession of a gallic visa ?
[07.05.2018 18:05:47] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: I do not believe they do sir.
[07.05.2018 18:05:58] MRG|TL-Epervier: Pilot, explain yourself.
[07.05.2018 18:06:05] MRG|TL-Epervier: What is your purpose for being here ?
[07.05.2018 18:06:14] MRG|TL-Epervier: And finally, you WILL cut your engines. I will not repeat it.
[07.05.2018 18:06:14] Megaera: I am here because I am
[07.05.2018 18:06:32] MRG|TL-Epervier: Lieutenant, get a weapons lock on that ship.
[07.05.2018 18:06:38] MRG|TL-Epervier: Don't fire yet.
[07.05.2018 18:06:40] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: Weapons locked.
[07.05.2018 18:06:49] Megaera: So friendly
[07.05.2018 18:07:00] MRG|TL-Epervier: You will reply to any questions you're asked to.
[07.05.2018 18:07:06] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: If you'd stop moving around like a fly, we wouldn't have to swat you. Simple, oui?
[07.05.2018 18:07:07] Megaera: Maybe
[07.05.2018 18:07:21] MRG|TL-Epervier: Now. Why are you here ? And for the last time, cut your engines. The King commands you to.
[07.05.2018 18:07:28] Megaera: King?
[07.05.2018 18:07:36] MRG|TL-Epervier: He speaks through all of us.
[07.05.2018 18:07:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: Do not try His patience.
[07.05.2018 18:07:43] MRG|TL-Epervier: Good.
[07.05.2018 18:07:49] Megaera: Humour me
[07.05.2018 18:07:54] MRG|TL-Epervier: You will.
[07.05.2018 18:08:07] MRG|TL-Epervier: I'll explain the situation to you.
[07.05.2018 18:08:32] MRG|TL-Epervier: In VERY simple terms, so your subpar Sirian neurons can link the dots.
[07.05.2018 18:08:40] Megaera: *sits back*
[07.05.2018 18:08:53] MRG|TL-Epervier: Sirian warships are NOT permitted within Gallia.
[07.05.2018 18:09:05] MRG|TL-Epervier: You are flying a Sirian fighter. That constitutes a warship.
[07.05.2018 18:09:05] Megaera: This is a warship?
[07.05.2018 18:09:12] MRG|TL-Epervier: And we happen to be in Gallia.
[07.05.2018 18:09:16] MRG|TL-Epervier: See where I'm going ?
[07.05.2018 18:09:25] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Can it be used to wage war?
[07.05.2018 18:09:28] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: I think so.
[07.05.2018 18:09:31] MRG|TL-Epervier: Is it a ship ? Yes.
[07.05.2018 18:09:33] Megaera: I do not view this as a warship
[07.05.2018 18:09:35] MRG|TL-Epervier: Ergo : warship.
[07.05.2018 18:09:52] Megaera: More like a diplomatic vessel of some kind
[07.05.2018 18:10:19] MRG|TL-Epervier: Honhon ! A diplomatic ship laden with dangerous military-grade armaments ?
[07.05.2018 18:10:19] Megaera: Sure, I need to fire occasionally to get my point across
[07.05.2018 18:10:46] MRG|TL-Epervier: Anyhow. This is only the foundation.
[07.05.2018 18:11:15] Megaera: Whoever you at war with, I do not care much
[07.05.2018 18:11:16] MRG|TL-Epervier: You're not supposed to be here and are technically invading Gallic sovereign territory.
[07.05.2018 18:11:28] MRG|TL-Epervier: Plus, you are in possession of illegal cloaking devices.
[07.05.2018 18:11:38] Megaera: It is not illegal
[07.05.2018 18:11:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: THIS ALONE would be reason for us to arrest you here and now.
[07.05.2018 18:11:50] MRG|TL-Epervier: It is in His Majesty's lands.
[07.05.2018 18:12:09] Megaera: My ship is sovereign space
[07.05.2018 18:12:18] MRG|TL-Epervier: *Chuckles*
[07.05.2018 18:12:24] MRG|TL-Epervier: How charming.
[07.05.2018 18:12:32] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: *The bridge breaks down into hysterical laughter for a few moments.*
[07.05.2018 18:12:33] Megaera: I allow this cloak to be on it
[07.05.2018 18:12:41] MRG|TL-Epervier: How is that weapons-lock doing over there, Lieutenant ?
[07.05.2018 18:12:50] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: On target and primed.
[07.05.2018 18:12:55] MRG|TL-Epervier: Excellent.
[07.05.2018 18:13:02] MRG|TL-Epervier: So, madame Sovereign ship...
[07.05.2018 18:13:12] MRG|TL-Epervier: This brings us back to my initial question.
[07.05.2018 18:13:23] MRG|TL-Epervier: And your reply will determine how the rest of the proceedings shall go.
[07.05.2018 18:13:39] MRG|TL-Epervier: So... You know... Act smart.
[07.05.2018 18:13:44] MRG|TL-Epervier: Why. Are. You. Here.
[07.05.2018 18:13:50] Megaera: You are going to offer me a bribe now?
[07.05.2018 18:13:54] Megaera: Oh
[07.05.2018 18:13:58] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: HAH!
[07.05.2018 18:14:01] MRG|TL-Epervier: A bribe ?!!!!
[07.05.2018 18:14:03] Megaera: Well I just drifted here I guess
[07.05.2018 18:14:05] MRG|TL-Epervier: AS IF
[07.05.2018 18:14:10] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: This isn't the Royal Police you're dealing with, madame.
[07.05.2018 18:14:19] MRG|TL-Epervier: And one does not simply "drift" into Gallia.
[07.05.2018 18:14:27] MRG|TL-Epervier: That's actually EXACTLY what a spy would say.
[07.05.2018 18:14:30] Megaera: Well it seems it happened
[07.05.2018 18:14:33] Megaera: Spy?
[07.05.2018 18:14:51] MRG|TL-Epervier: So you confess ?!
[07.05.2018 18:15:01] Megaera: Of what?
[07.05.2018 18:15:19] MRG|TL-Epervier: A spy ! A saboteur !
[07.05.2018 18:15:20] Megaera: I wouldnt know who I would spy for
[07.05.2018 18:15:22] MRG|TL-Epervier: Who do you work for ?!
[07.05.2018 18:15:30] MRG|TL-Epervier: Exactly what a double agent would say !
[07.05.2018 18:15:33] Megaera: I was about to ask you
[07.05.2018 18:15:39] Megaera: Hold on
[07.05.2018 18:15:48] Megaera: Are you here to spy on me?
[07.05.2018 18:15:58] MRG|TL-Epervier: If you've read the news once in your existence, you know we have enemies.
[07.05.2018 18:16:03] MRG|TL-Epervier: And don't turn this around !
[07.05.2018 18:16:09] Megaera: So that is why you ask me all these questions
[07.05.2018 18:16:10] MRG|TL-Epervier: What is there to spy on, besides this...
[07.05.2018 18:16:20] MRG|TL-Epervier: Pitiful excuse for a ship ?
[07.05.2018 18:16:21] MRG|TL-Epervier: Who flies that ?
[07.05.2018 18:16:25] Megaera: Well you ask me all these questions
[07.05.2018 18:16:28] MRG|TL-Epervier: Besides Rheinlandic peasants, it seems !
[07.05.2018 18:16:31] Megaera: You are the spy here
[07.05.2018 18:16:43] MRG|TL-Epervier: We are doing our job and you are not making this easy.
[07.05.2018 18:16:52] MRG|TL-Epervier: *Scratches forehead*
[07.05.2018 18:16:53] Megaera: See
[07.05.2018 18:16:55] MRG|TL-Epervier: Let's sum up.
[07.05.2018 18:16:59] Megaera: you admit it
[07.05.2018 18:17:03] MRG|TL-Epervier: Gentlemen, tell me if I've missed anything.
[07.05.2018 18:17:08] MRG|TL-Epervier: What we have here...
[07.05.2018 18:17:21] Megaera: Also you shot me out of nowhere
[07.05.2018 18:17:29] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: * Fontaine pops open a wine bottle, pours up a shot and swigs it*
[07.05.2018 18:17:42] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: Confusion amongst friendly fire, and we offer our sincerest apologies for the event.
[07.05.2018 18:17:47] MRG|TL-Epervier: Is a Rheinlandic peasant spy equipped with a cloaking device and refusing to answer questions from the Navy.
[07.05.2018 18:18:05] Megaera: Would a peasant own a cloak at all?
[07.05.2018 18:18:16] Megaera: I feel insulted by this
[07.05.2018 18:18:17] MRG|TL-Epervier: And here in total violation of our existing laws, with no visa. That's going to be one hell of a fine...
[07.05.2018 18:18:29] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well... You're the first one I meet, so I wouldn't know.
[07.05.2018 18:18:34] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Mmm.
[07.05.2018 18:18:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: Apparently Rheinlandic peasants are better equipped than ours.
[07.05.2018 18:18:52] Megaera: I am not even a rheinlander
[07.05.2018 18:18:57] MRG|TL-Epervier: So, you refuse to tell us why you came here ?
[07.05.2018 18:18:58] Megaera: I am Kusari
[07.05.2018 18:19:18] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: You're the whole house of Kusari?
[07.05.2018 18:19:39] Megaera: Well... I do not think they fit on this ship
[07.05.2018 18:19:41] MRG|TL-Epervier: Our treaty with the house of Kusari does not include vagrants.
[07.05.2018 18:19:42] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Or, do you mean nationality?
[07.05.2018 18:19:47] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: I think you mean nationality.
[07.05.2018 18:20:01] Megaera: Yes
[07.05.2018 18:20:13] Megaera: you keep calling me a rheinlander peasant
[07.05.2018 18:20:21] Megaera: I should shoot you for that alone
[07.05.2018 18:20:30] MRG|TL-Epervier: Of Kusarian nationality. And you say you're no spy.
[07.05.2018 18:20:32] MRG|TL-Epervier: THREATS ?!
[07.05.2018 18:20:34] Megaera: But I am merciful
[07.05.2018 18:20:39] Megaera: Nah
[07.05.2018 18:20:51] MRG|TL-Epervier: *He and the rest of the bridge scoff in unison*
[07.05.2018 18:20:55] Megaera: Last time you navy guys gave me a barrel of wine
[07.05.2018 18:21:07] Megaera: So I am nice
[07.05.2018 18:21:18] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well, what WE are going to give you is a nice little fine.
[07.05.2018 18:21:29] MRG|TL-Epervier: Right, let's sum it up.
[07.05.2018 18:21:38] Megaera: Alright
[07.05.2018 18:21:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: Illegal penetration of sovereign gallic space without a visa.
[07.05.2018 18:22:02] MRG|TL-Epervier: Possession of an illegal cloaking device.
[07.05.2018 18:22:13] MRG|TL-Epervier: Invalid identification papers.
[07.05.2018 18:22:15] MRG|TL-Epervier: Vagrancy.
[07.05.2018 18:22:30] MRG|TL-Epervier: Invasion of Gallia using a warship of Rheinlandic construction.
[07.05.2018 18:22:47] MRG|TL-Epervier: And finally ! Threats to an officer of the Marine Royale Gauloise !
[07.05.2018 18:23:00] MRG|TL-Epervier: What do you have to say for yourself, vagrant ?!
[07.05.2018 18:23:19] MRG|TL-Epervier: I haven't included the counts of sabotage and espionage.
[07.05.2018 18:23:19] Megaera: I could have done better
[07.05.2018 18:23:22] MRG|TL-Epervier: For lack of proof.
[07.05.2018 18:23:38] MRG|TL-Epervier: Oh sure. We've seen worse.
[07.05.2018 18:23:46] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well, tell you what.
[07.05.2018 18:23:54] MRG|TL-Epervier: After you've paid the resounding fine of.. .Hmmm...
[07.05.2018 18:24:01] MRG|TL-Epervier: What do you think, gentlemen ?
[07.05.2018 18:24:13] MRG|TL-Epervier: 10 million francs ? 15 ?
[07.05.2018 18:24:20] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Twenty.
[07.05.2018 18:24:34] MRG|TL-Epervier: Lieutenant ? What is your estimate of the situation, fine-wise ?
[07.05.2018 18:24:42] MRG|TL-Epervier: He's still learning, you see.
[07.05.2018 18:24:44] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: Considering the laundry list of offenses I agree with Fontaine's proposed amount.
[07.05.2018 18:25:04] Megaera: Hold on.
[07.05.2018 18:25:16] Megaera: I have not finished yet
[07.05.2018 18:25:19] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well... It would seem that you have been fined a total amount of 20 million francs, madame.
[07.05.2018 18:25:24] MRG|TL-Epervier: Are you sure you want to add to your case ?
[07.05.2018 18:25:29] Megaera: You committed some crimes yourself
[07.05.2018 18:25:36] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Oh?
[07.05.2018 18:25:40] MRG|TL-Epervier: Ah ?
[07.05.2018 18:26:00] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: *bursts into laughter again*
[07.05.2018 18:26:06] MRG|TL-Epervier: *Quietly facepalms, visibly tired* well, I suppose we might as well hear it...
[07.05.2018 18:26:21] Megaera: Opening fire on the vessel of the divine one
[07.05.2018 18:26:23] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: This... notion of personal sovereignty... ahh!
[07.05.2018 18:26:36] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: *The whole bridge breaks down into hysteria again.*
[07.05.2018 18:26:44] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: *munbling* This will be quite the interesting report write up......
[07.05.2018 18:26:48] MRG|TL-Epervier: Lieutenant, please take note of the perpetrator's... Declarations.
[07.05.2018 18:26:52] MRG|Eloi.Leclerc: *mumbling* *
[07.05.2018 18:26:54] MRG|TL-Epervier: Oh yes, surely.
[07.05.2018 18:27:05] MRG|TL-Epervier: Consider this a welcoming gift.
[07.05.2018 18:27:23] Megaera: Trying to contain Megaera
[07.05.2018 18:27:28] Megaera: And Heresy
[07.05.2018 18:27:43] MRG|TL-Epervier: I see.
[07.05.2018 18:27:48] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well, guilty as charged.
[07.05.2018 18:27:49] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: HERESY?
[07.05.2018 18:27:52] Megaera: So we are even
[07.05.2018 18:27:57] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Oh.
[07.05.2018 18:28:06] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Ah haha.
[07.05.2018 18:28:26] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: *The bridge straightens itself up. Fontaine takes another shot of wine.*
[07.05.2018 18:28:35] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well, you shall need to project your sovereignty onto us in order to cash in on that fine.
[07.05.2018 18:28:42] MRG|TL-Epervier: That means going very, very close to us.
[07.05.2018 18:28:49] MRG|TL-Epervier: In firing distance, one might say.
[07.05.2018 18:28:56] MRG|TL-Epervier: We wouldn't want that, would we ?
[07.05.2018 18:28:57] MRG|TL-Felin-Majestique: Fontaine: Too close, even.
[07.05.2018 18:29:01] Megaera: Does that mean I need to gut someone?
[07.05.2018 18:29:08] MRG|TL-Epervier: Plus your breath probably smells of... Vagrancy.
[07.05.2018 18:29:13] MRG|TL-Epervier: And Rheinlandic peasantry.
[07.05.2018 18:29:24] MRG|TL-Epervier: Honhon ! Such a delicious creature...
[07.05.2018 18:29:35] MRG|TL-Epervier: Well. I do need to get dinner.
[07.05.2018 18:29:39] Megaera: *adds insult to the list*
[07.05.2018 18:29:42] MRG|TL-Epervier: Madame Paoli is not a patient woman.
[07.05.2018 18:29:58] MRG|TL-Epervier: You will wire the sum to Aspirant Leclerc at once.
[07.05.2018 18:30:06] MRG|TL-Epervier: Or he will see your sovereignty end brutally.
[07.05.2018 18:30:08] Megaera: How about we each go our way? I have business in Omega
[07.05.2018 18:30:26] MRG|TL-Epervier: You will be left to your own devices once the fine has been processed in full.

Guess the Gallic navy made a list of all laws I broke according to them.
- Illegal penetration of sovereign gallic space without a visa.
I do not need such devices that mortals made... I simply go wherever I want.
- Possession of an illegal cloaking device.
It is not illegal when I do not deem it illegal.
- Invalid identification papers.
What are they worried about? Everyone knows me.
- Vagrancy.
What does this even mean?
- Invasion of Gallia using a warship of Rheinlandic construction.
It is a ship of peace... I only kill people with it that are anoying.
- Threats to an officer of the Marine Royale Gauloise
It is not a threat when you mean it.
- Sabotage and espionage.
Spy for who exactly? And I did not get the time to sabotage anything yet.
Now I guess the Gallic navy broke some of my laws too...
- Shooting a vessel the divine one.
I do not like to be shot at. They should just accept death and be happy about it. It is me after all, their goddess.
- Trying to contain me.
Well. They did stop me. So many questions followed and no rewards for my patience.
- Heresy
They called me a Rheinland peasant.
- Destroying a vessel of the goddess.
My poor sichel needs repairs...
