Firstly, I would like to apologize for what transgressed within Liberty's borders today. One of The Order's vessels - an Osiris by the designation of Nomad Killer - was tracking a nomad specimen that found it's way into liberty space. While our ceasefire agreement with Liberty ensures that our vessels will not breach Liberty space without request, the Captain of the Nomad Killer apparently was too caught up in the situation at the time to address that concern - he will be reprimanded for such.

While I was not witness to the actions at the time, apparently either liberty lawful forces or local mercenaries and bounty hunters demanded the release of bounty hunter core pilots that were being detained within the Nomad Killer's brig. This issue may not have been covered in our ceasefire agreement, but we will not relinquish prisoners of war unless an official appeal is made by the organization which those prisoners belong to.

After refusing to hand over these personnel, Nomad Killer was attacked by several liberty ships, and was forced to return fire in defense. The result was the destruction of several Liberty Navy, Security Force, and Private Mercenary vessels who assisted. All we can do is offer apologies for the destruction of these craft, as we believe it was poor judgement on their captains' behalfs to open fire on a vessel with no reason other than holding prisoners of war.

I await return word on this matter.
