Dōzo yoroshiku Nakashima-san.

It appears my recent meetings with the Lord Commander already bear fruits.

We welcome your swift relocation of assets and will reach out to the State Police to keep them informed, so that they are aware of potential needs to bolster their own patrols at our Tau borders. Whereas the usual doctrine here is to leave operational command to the Lord Commander of the KOI, his decision to see your and other units fall under our oversight is most welcome and admittedly a pleasant surprise.

Current local command is handled by Kaigun Gensui Okamoto, with Lord Protector Mitsuo acting as a strategic advisor. The Totsugekitai Division shifted most of their operations to the region as well. Beyond requesting basic operative coordination with them, we will refrain from interfering with your units, Nakashima-san. The units operating under the various Contingency Directives are highly professional, we recall some of their deeds during our quest to return from Exile, so you will not require any handholding from our side. Consider Contingency Directive 17 as activated.

In service of his Imperial Majesty,
Shogun Ikeda Yamato
