Esteemed colleagues, i will be brief.

James Erzie, apparently, has severe memory complications, and completely forgotten he was prohibited to enter Liberty as his pathetic diplomacy did not let him slip through the case.
I have noticed his vessel being picked up by Spyglass network in Colorado, and immediately manned the closest possible asset to intercept this mongrel. As i succeeded with the interception - i have caught Erzie's Serenity-class transport filled to the brim with Cardamine right by the Kepler anomaly in Colorado.
He was reminded of his sins for which he was banned from Liberty. He was reminded of the consequences.
I have ensured he left towards Kusari before rerouting back to Colorado anomaly in Kepler, keeping in mind that a Xeno Alliance Pilgrim Liner have been passing by, and they could send someone to investigate.
It have happened, indeed. I have encountered a Xeno fighter not far from Nome base, the hideout of these pests.
We held a brief conversation instead of having each other at a gunpoint.
I'd assume it was worth my time, however, the approaching Ion Storm have forced me to break off and seek temporary shelter at Ames.

Flight Log, Leiden Aggressor, 12.03.826 A.S. 07:34:12 - 07:55:38

[12.03.2019 07:34:12] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Stop right here.
[12.03.2019 07:34:21] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: Hello.
[12.03.2019 07:34:38] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: It seems like you have started to forget what you've been told, Doctor James Erzie.
[12.03.2019 07:34:58] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: Maybe I did, maybe I didn't.
[12.03.2019 07:35:23] XA-Great.Basin: Odd thing to stumble across.
[12.03.2019 07:35:30] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: You apparently did.
[12.03.2019 07:35:46] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Simply the point that you've been told to stay out of Liberty.
[12.03.2019 07:36:08] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: You are perfectly aware of why such decision have been taken by the Professorship.
[12.03.2019 07:36:16] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: You best remove Bethlehem station then, since it's our headquarters.
[12.03.2019 07:36:21] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Now turn back at once.
[12.03.2019 07:36:34] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: Maybe you forgot that it's completely unrealistic.
[12.03.2019 07:36:42] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: Either way, turning around isn't an issue.
[12.03.2019 07:36:48] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Unrealistic, you say.
[12.03.2019 07:37:24] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: And i say that experimenting with the technologies and materials you're messing with...
[12.03.2019 07:37:55] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Is just outright equal to marking yourself an enemy of humanity.
[12.03.2019 07:37:56] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: Still no concrete evidence, just a public brochure on our inspirations. Let me know when you actually find how our -
[12.03.2019 07:38:02] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: research process is executed.
[12.03.2019 07:38:16] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: We've got a word from trusted sources.
[12.03.2019 07:38:19] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: This is enough.
[12.03.2019 07:38:42] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Next time you're caught in Liberty - your vessel will be deconstructed.
[12.03.2019 07:38:48] IRG|Doctor.James.Erzie: The Order Overwatch is flying heresy. Abandoning everything Orillion ever fought for.
[12.03.2019 07:39:15] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Furthermore, i will personally ensure you will have a trip to Malta with a right of permanent stay on the planet.
[12.03.2019 07:39:24] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: You're most certainly going to enjoy it.
[12.03.2019 07:39:56] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: I hope i've made myself clear. Stay out of Liberty.
[12.03.2019 07:46:01] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Hello, Xeno.
[12.03.2019 07:46:04] XA-Diamondback: Looky here, A hacker.
[12.03.2019 07:46:14] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Looking for James Erzie?
[12.03.2019 07:46:27] XA-Diamondback: Looking for you, Our transport caught you in Colorado.
[12.03.2019 07:46:40] XA-Diamondback: You know better. Colorado is our turf.
[12.03.2019 07:46:56] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: I am fine with that.
[12.03.2019 07:47:10] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: But there was a reason for me to venture there for a moment.
[12.03.2019 07:47:24] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Would you like to hear it?
[12.03.2019 07:47:38] XA-Diamondback: I assume you're referring to the IRG transport you had stopped on our way through?
[12.03.2019 07:47:47] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Precisely.
[12.03.2019 07:48:02] XA-Diamondback: I've got time. Let's hear it.
[12.03.2019 07:48:11] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: You know what IRG is notorious for, don't you?
[12.03.2019 07:48:27] XA-Diamondback: All I know is that they're researchers.
[12.03.2019 07:48:46] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: First of all - research and employment of dangerous alien technologies that they disguise as their developments.
[12.03.2019 07:49:12] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: This is the main reason we, Lane Hackers, strictly watch them staying out of Liberty.
[12.03.2019 07:49:26] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: To an extent, the transport itself was loaded with Cardamine.
[12.03.2019 07:49:44] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: You probably know we're quite sensitive about it.
[12.03.2019 07:49:57] XA-Diamondback: I'm well aware of the psycho drug. And the hold it has over most of Liberty.
[12.03.2019 07:49:57] CONSOLE: Notice to Space Farers : Long range probes indicates approaching ION storms in 10 minutes.
[12.03.2019 07:50:17] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: And when two matter we're sensitive about come together... he was lucky to make it out in one piece.
[12.03.2019 07:50:38] XA-Diamondback: My question is. Why do the hackers care about alien technology.
[12.03.2019 07:51:28] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Why would we not? We've happened to encounter the Nomads. Their thralls as well.
[12.03.2019 07:52:04] XA-Diamondback: Wouldn't it be much easier for you to let them into liberty. And closely watch their activities through your... spy capabilities.
[12.03.2019 07:52:18] XA-Diamondback: Who knows what they could be doing with it outside of liberty.
[12.03.2019 07:52:45] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: We'll get to know about their activities outside of Liberty as well. This or another way.
[12.03.2019 07:53:11] XA-Diamondback: The Cardamine is understandable, I have no quams about that.
[12.03.2019 07:53:21] XA-Diamondback: I see no reason for bloodshed. Just stay out of Colorado.
[12.03.2019 07:54:04] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: I have explained my reasons to you.
[12.03.2019 07:54:15] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: I wanted that particular transport to turn back.
[12.03.2019 07:54:31] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Because of the person that is in command of it.
[12.03.2019 07:54:39] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: The cargo was yet another reason.
[12.03.2019 07:54:54] XA-Diamondback: It won't be happening again. Catch them in New York or Ontario, or we'll get involved.
[12.03.2019 07:54:58] CONSOLE: Sirius Meteorological Institute, Late Warning department leader, The Right Honourable Fellow Hoodlum, Esq., confirms approaching ION storm will reach Sirius in 5 minutes. Proceed to nearest docking facility at best speed.
[12.03.2019 07:55:24] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: I will give this a degree of consideration next time. Perhaps.
[12.03.2019 07:55:28] XA-Diamondback: There's no need to sour our relations any further. Safe trip home Hacker. Don't get caught in the storm.
[12.03.2019 07:55:38] LH~Leiden.Aggressor: Likewise.
