Keepers,
While the stunt you pulled outside Freeport 11 was mildly entertaining to observe, you seem to forget that the Zoners as a whole, including myself do not tolerate violations of our safe havens as such. It seems you've acquired a habit of blatantly disregarding the rules we once had, and trampling over the principle of public safety by parking yourselves on top of our stations in capital vessels, and operating hyperspace equipment within a dangerous distance of the same stations and sanctuaries. While I've always turned my own blind eyes when around the stations Ingenuus administrates since we've found it ideal to use your lot within our plans of security, I cannot grant the same leniency for other stations around Sirius. You're endangering our population, and earning a poor reputation for yourselves and Ingenuus - and as long as you pull me into it, it's also my concern.

I will not hesitate to end our relationship as working partners should you continue to harm my organization directly, but as of right now, this is a warning in fairness. I can't keep you from the consequences of your own actions, so do so with the consideration that you're treading on thin ice. Regardless of whether the Confederation exists is beyond the point of principle - follow the rules as they were, and we'll get along fine. In the end we still have to deal with the Nomad threats in the Edge worlds, and it will be a whole lot easier without a bunch of noise and drama caused by rash and uncalculated actions from the Covenant. I still have it in good faith that Auxesia as a whole has good intentions, and we have enough to deal with without stirring up additional issues. None of our research will be able to progress as long as organizations like the Order or Core get angry or hostile with us for favoring one group or another - especially your own.

Keep your capital vessels away from stations not belonging to Ingenuus, and limit your operations of hyperspace drives to usage outside of the No-Fire Zone.
