Listen. Despite all the shit that's going on, I'm still a merc and I still need to earn some cash once in a while. Being on the run isn't exactly cheap, you know? So, when the Xenos offered to hire me to take out some Rheinlanders that were in breach of their peace treaty with your house, I took the opportunity. I didn't know the navy would be involved and once I found out, I didn't think they'd be too keen on aiding the Krauts, what with them violating treaties left and right.
Regardless, I didn't fire a single shot at any Libertonian ships. I'm not an idiot, Prower. As far as the law is concerned, nothing's changed.
As for dealing with Xenos? Well, my list of reliable allies is running really fucking short, so I'll deal with whomever I have to in order to stay alive and go about my business.
