:::She stands upright and salutes:::
I have been moved onto the duty on our Triumph vessel, Claymore that operates in Lorraine.
Our munitions team was put on alert when the call came that an unknown vessel has been spotted near the Burgundy tradelanes. That was the last calm moment we have experienced.
The vessel [pirate]BlackPearl[Yo] defied all sorts of combat convention and begun firing explosive torpedoes, point blank, without any response.
We have been caught completely off-guard, and through the ringing in my ears I could only briefly hear the call "Maquisards". Hit after hit resonated through the chambers around us before at last our own defense systems started operating after the shock tactic by the disilusioned terrorists and their stolen Ex-Council weaponry was deployed.
We have rallied and brought them to the bring of destruction, but the damage was done and the call to retreat to Quillan was given. We have been defeated, but only due to the dishonorable terrorist tactics - a stark reminder that I must fight even harder for the pure Gallia, where the honorable Gallic Navy shines like a shining beacon for Gallic kin.
