Sehr geehrter Stab der Rheinwehr,

while we were defeating a large Corsair fleet in Sigma-15, I managed to catch Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi closing in on the Frankfurt Gate.

I will upload the communication logs now.

Blackbox from the KKS Luebeck

[10.03.2024 20:41:11] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Ah, the Adimari...
[10.03.2024 20:41:23] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Is there something I can do for you?
[10.03.2024 20:41:41] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: You got a nice entry in our criminal database.
[10.03.2024 20:41:53] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Quite possibly. In error, I imagine?
[10.03.2024 20:42:06] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: I don't think so.
[10.03.2024 20:42:09] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: What would I have to do in order to smooth it out, as it were?
[10.03.2024 20:42:28] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Don't say "time in orbit of Hammersee". I'd really rather not, as I'm sure you understand.
[10.03.2024 20:42:40] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: The fine is 20.000 sirius credits, after that one is paid, the entry will be deleted.
[10.03.2024 20:42:57] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Might I inquire about the nature of the alleged offence?
[10.03.2024 20:43:30] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Let me take a look, the notes say the following: Violating of the law 2.5.1
[10.03.2024 20:43:43] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I'm afraid I've not got all the laws memorized. Care to refresh my memory?
[10.03.2024 20:44:10] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I do try, truly, but I find myself travelling the Sector with some frequency. Your House, of course, is a most impressive one-
[10.03.2024 20:44:27] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: and I aspire to follow its laws at all times, but it can be hard to truly remember ever single individual law, as I'm sure
[10.03.2024 20:44:30] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: you understand.
[10.03.2024 20:44:52] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: 2.5.1 could be almost everything, inciting violence, unprotected speech deemed inflammatory against the Kaiser etc etc.
[10.03.2024 20:45:25] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Ah. I see. I'm afraid that, given the vagueness of the law, I'm afraid I won't be able to easily recall exactly
[10.03.2024 20:45:28] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: what may or may not have occurred.
[10.03.2024 20:45:35] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I'm no violent man, of course.
[10.03.2024 20:45:53] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: The database has a entry of a blackbox log, it would take me a while to find out what exactly happened.
[10.03.2024 20:46:02] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: But be asured, we got evidence.
[10.03.2024 20:46:04] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I do recall conversing with a Bundschuh vessel. They were very inquisitive. To cater to their desires, I may have
[10.03.2024 20:46:20] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: let slip something about your Empire. Of course, it would've all been a lie - spoken to appease the Bundschuh,
[10.03.2024 20:46:22] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: and avoid escalation.
[10.03.2024 20:46:53] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: you wouldn't happen to be willing to consider lowering the fine ever so slightly? I'm not a man of great wealth, I'm afraid.
[10.03.2024 20:47:37] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: There is nothing I can do about the fine.
[10.03.2024 20:47:45] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: How unfortunate.
[10.03.2024 20:48:03] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Were I to, hypothetically, be unable to afford such a large fine, what would be my best course of action?
[10.03.2024 20:48:21] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I do, of course, desire a clean record. Navigating your House is much more difficult under these, current, conditions.
[10.03.2024 20:48:31] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Let me think, I could inform the KPR and let them know that you lack the amount of cash for the fine.
[10.03.2024 20:48:49] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: That would be most helpful.
[10.03.2024 20:48:53] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: The KPR on the other hand, would get in contact with you and probably find a solution that works for both you and Rhein-
[10.03.2024 20:48:54] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: land.
[10.03.2024 20:49:08] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I believe I saw a contact of mine travel to Frankfurt. Perhaps, from them, I could acquire a loan?
[10.03.2024 20:49:22] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: If a loan works for you, indeed.
[10.03.2024 20:49:35] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: May I, just this once, pass into the Frankfurt system, then?
[10.03.2024 20:49:52] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: I'm afraid my contact is of the paranoid sort. They're highly unlikely to accept a remote
[10.03.2024 20:49:54] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Make sure to name my name in case you get stopped by another lawful unit: Fregattenkapitaen Franz Westerwalt.
[10.03.2024 20:49:55] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: communications request.
[10.03.2024 20:50:14] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: This should make sure that you will arrive in Frankfurt.
[10.03.2024 20:50:18] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Would your surname suffice? I find your rank - as impressive as it is - a little difficult to pronounce.
[10.03.2024 20:50:24] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Rheinlandic is not my native tongue, you see.
[10.03.2024 20:50:27] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Should work, indeed.
[10.03.2024 20:50:42] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Excellent. Much obliged, captain.
[10.03.2024 20:50:48] [RM]KKS-Luebeck: Franz: Good luck out there!
[10.03.2024 20:51:00] Cipriano.Adimari|Aoi: Thank you.

I suggest that the KPR get's in contact with that pilot soon, so he can offer us ways to pay the fine.

Für den Kaiser! Für das Volk! Für Rheinland!

Hochachtungsvoll,
Franz Westerwalt
Fregattenkaptän der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr
