Dwarf reporting here. Fairly eventful day here, halted a few Traders from exporting our goods to the other nations, As well as stopped two smugglers with a full hold of the well known drug cardimine. But that aside, there was something that intrigued me today. I ran into a peculiar Bounty hunter who's name i will not release because i don't wish his enemy's to know where he operates, nor his Allys to shun him. At first sight on the scanner i thought "aww dam, got myself a fight on my hands..." But that was not the case. he had every intention of killing me, Before i entered into very well thought out conversation. with valid points on both sides. the conversation goes something like this...
ME: "Well hello there hunter, by chance do you have any coffee?"
BH: "Not for you..."
ME: "dam, long day. was hoping some one would be so kind as to give me some"
BH: "i don't generally deal with my paychecks"
ME: "you know i don't believe that killing people for money is a good thing to be doing, i suggest a new line of work."
BH: "and senseless violence and destruction of innocent traders is?"
ME: "we Xenos don't fire, not without proper warnings. and we don't just fire on whomever we please."
BH: "But you still kill those who are making an honest living."
ME: "giving the laborers to make the good little and selling it for a high profit is hardly an honest living, you kill people that you have no idea if they are innocent or not. you see people as a paycheck"
BH: "i do my work to put food on the plate. your 'good intentions' get you know where in the end greed will always prevail"
ME: "and that is the thing we are trying to change, the wealth must be spread amongst the many, not secluded among the few."
BH: "and you would isolate your home to make it equal? destroy outsiders that come through here? innocents just looking for a place of refuge"
ME: "the outsiders take our hard earned jobs. and run us out of our home."
BH: "but you are with little food and resources...does this not bother you?"
ME: "no, because i know that it will be a better place when all is said and done. you have no true reason for fighting"
BH: "i fight to but food on my table, i am wealthy because greed has gone well for me."
ME: "your greed is a double edged sword, one side you will prosper and have money, but the other. will get you killed quicker than you can comprehend."
BH: "we live to get as much of one side of the blade before the other comes around."
ME: "sounds like you don't care if you die without cause"
BH: "making an impression on this galaxy is not a care of mine...Money will always be here in some form or another. your people, and your cause will eventually die out."
ME: "that may be so, but i will try my hardest to keep that from happening. because i live for a prosperous working class. and a galaxy free of enslavement."
BH: "the Xenos have been around for a long time, with no change in the way people do things."
ME: "as have your bounty hunters. you may have killed one, but there are 10 more in that persons place. and you have made many enemy's doing this."
BH: "you have many enemy's as well. more than myself i dare say."
ME: "that is the price we pay for our cause im afraid"
BH: "indeed"
ME: "i have reports of a hacker in the system"
BH "well i guess that's lucky for you that you aren't worth as much as them..."
ME: "we aren't? that's depressing...oh well. I'm going to go whack the hacker."
BH: "i dare say then, i guess i will have to beat you to it."
Well that is pretty much how it went, in the end the hacker blew him up. And i killed the hacker. a good day indeed. a bounty hunter gone, a hacker ship dismantled. and the trade re-directed. That's if for this report.
