A disturbing day for all of Liberty today, however a day with many victories with Liberty. I began my day by patrolling around Planet Houston, scanning for any offenders that try to breach the Embargo with Rheinland. Today was a fairly calm day around Houston with no blockade runners, so I began to patrol New York.
I was disturbed to find a Keeper has entered New York and attacked us. Several officers including Darkmoor, Gunner and Kreagan along with Guardian.059, DW-LordREV and [BHG]Claxton joined the fight, trying to eliminate the Keeper. The latter group was ordered to leave the fight, making it a slightly more dangerous. I was awarded the kill for the Keeper, however the kill wouldn't have occured if not for the assistance of my fellow officers.
After that incursion, I was surprised to find an Outcast Destroyer by the name of LRS-Queen_Isabella. LNF-Derek.Applegate and [BHG]Claxton found the ship near Fort Bush, firing on the bounty hunter. I ordered both ships to cease fire, and the Outcast Destroyer left without any trouble.
I returned to patrolling when, on Long Range Sensors, I found 2 Harvesters near Liberty space. One was stationed at Hudson while the other was in New York. I found the Harvester near the Norfolk Shipyards. I escorted the Harvester out of Liberty space, as I believe that it wasn't a threat so no force was necessary.
Finally, by the advice of LPI-Andrea.Berkeley, I found 2 Order ships 15k away from Manhattan by the name of Rhys.Filmore and Ronis.Lokin. I talked to them for an hour, asking them what their intentions were and to please leave. They responded by saying that they needed records of the LN to verify if anyone was infected by the nomads. I was tense however, as three Osiris Battleships attacked us a couple days eariler and that the Order were now considered "Pirates". I asked again for them to please leave, however they did not. They accused us of entering Omicron Minor and that the attack was the punishment for entering their space. I replied by saying that both Liberty and Order ships were restricted to their own systems. Sub Lieutenant Malrone arrived on scene as I explained everything.
We were unable to persuade them to leave and were forced to use force. Sub Lieutenant Malrone, BHG Claxton, LNF-Derek.Applegate and I attacked the Order ships. During the fight, Kaize.Soze appeared, another Order ship it seems and destroyed LNF-Derek.Applegate. After that loss, we rallied and destroyed the three Order ships. I find this extremely disturbing as I was on the comms with them for an hour, and they had no regard for the events that had transpired over the last couple days.
