Intermission

[Fiorella de Marco]

Fiorella de Marco clicked her tongue again and chuckled softly and quietly. Judging by her reaction, she held little respect for the Core. She fidgeted with her engagement ring for a second before revealing her thoughts.

"Trust in the Core is as misplaced as trust in the Houses. They are our long-term enemies, and the Core are their agents within the Edgeworlds. Their greed fuels them; nothing else remains."

"I suggest we ambush and destroy their forces should they venture too close, say, into the Omicron Alpha or Beta systems, yet this hardly warrants a full-scale war beyond the cause of vendetta. They occupy no territory of significance to us, do they? The most fitting revenge we could serve is to leave them at the mercy of the Corsairs and their marauding empire. Let them deplete their forces as they fight over Theta and Delta."

Fiorella then turned her attention to Chenzo.

"Please, Don Chenzo, enlighten us why you request that we refrain from intervening in Rheinland. While presently it might seem an insignificant market to us, it remains our long-term target."
