Up to Speed

[Victoria Knight]

Taking notes while he spoke, marking things for further questioning later. A lot of these things needed more than just the basic rundown. And for her and her small group of ships information was more valuable than fuel and ammunition. Many of the situations sounded concerning in a general sense but not as an immediate threat to the Xenos, the LFR or even just her own people.

The slave revolt would mean less cardamine coming into the houses and with the Xenos grabbing part of it that meant for an unstable underworld. Yet Liberty's underworld wasn't the type to pose a threat to her as long as they stayed out of the cardamine business. Erie was a more interesting situation to her. Another unstable world for Liberty to struggle over and a potential catalyst for further rebellion. Though she no longer had the power to make that happen, it was a situation that should be constantly monitored and exploited.

She'd never held the Order in high regards, considering them rather useless compared to the stories and few real reports she'd seen. Gone were the times of them turning the tides within the houses. The Order had never once even sent a proper contact or scout when the Battlegroup Harmony was involved in one of the largest nomad related situations since the nomad wars. On the other hand, the Technocracy was a cult that actively dabbled with the nomads, there wasn't even a question to who to prefer between the two.

"Thank you, Commander. That is good enough for a first overview. I don't see an issue with any of the decisions made by your group either. Though I will not be able to have my people actively involved in the cardamine trade beyond protecting Xenos craft on opportunity. I do see and have always seen the importance of controlling the market. I'm sure it will considerably increase funding." She finally put down her notes, glancing at Belle, noticing once again the outfit. Were her crews the same way? She'd not have tolerated her officers being this casual. Though she was working with Xenos, she'd work with a Legion rebel too.

"Though I wish there was more effort spent on the Erie situation, I can see that stretching too thin will not be beneficial either. I'm aware the plan is to take Toronto and reinforce the strength and reach of the Free Republic. I do wonder how this will not merely lead to a repeat of the Bering situation. Yes this is certainly not the trade highway Bering is but it is still having a potential jump gate and resources that I doubt they will just let go."
