Good and honorable people of Kusari. I am hear today, alive and only mildly scraped and bruised. Fortunately, my ever vigilant and stalwart second Patro-san was able to retrieve my pod, and decided to withdraw from the fight, rather than risk my capture. He saved my life this day, as he has done so many times in the past. Patro, I am eternally in your debt, we have become brothers you and I, we have shared victory and defeat, pain and joy. You are of me, as I am of you, I would lay my life down for you without hesitation or reservation. I can never repay you for your long service to myself and the cause of Kusari. You shall be remembered for all time as one of the finest Samurai ever to server the Kusari Empire.
My fellow countrymen, this brush with death has shown me once again, that the true threat to Kusari sovereignty lies from outside, not from within. Today, the Dragons have shown, once again, that while we have different goals, our primary goal is the same, as it is for all true Kusari, to protect our home from the Gaijin hordes, trying to erode the proud Kusari people. Their drugs and immorality shall not find soil with which to grow roots here in Kusari. We are not like the rest of Sirius, we have honor, we have pride, we have tradition, we are Kusari, and the Empire of the Rising Suns shall prevail for all time.
To you Gaijin Kamikazes. Yes, you managed to take out my ship, are you proud? You should be. Your actions have awaken the true nature of the Kusari pride. You think we shall allow you to come into our home and treat us with this disrespect. You were given the choice to leave Kusari and not return, that option is no longer available. The Kusari people shall not rest until your fleet lies scrapped, your corpse exposed to the harsh vacuum of space, your wrecks the only trace of you left in history. I must truly thank you SOB today, for you have brought the mighty Kusari dragon out of it's slumber, and it shall now rise forth and smite you.
