Excuse me? Is that correct, is a Zoner shooting off threats towards the entire Red Hessian movement? I was observing this channel until this moment while awaiting contact with the rest of the higher officers and the Rheinland Revolutionary Alliance regarding this... matter of a minor group of radical supporters within the movement, but this threat of genocide, not to mention planetary annihilation... perhaps the Smokeones were right all along!

Now you will retract that threat immediately, or I kid you not - the repercussions will be severe and long standing. Do not mistake your flaunted backyard economics and stab in the back politics as having an effect on us, because they don't. We let you carry out your trade through our space as long as it does not directly harm us, but the moment you try and abuse that, all this can change. Instantaneously in fact.

So pick your next words carefully. Unpleasant things might happen if you carry on like that, mein herr.

As to the Smokeone demands: I'm just going to declare this as a private matter between both parties involved, and hence on a low priority list. To the Red Hessian Army the Smokeones are a splinter group. We currently have an entire fleet of Corsairs rampaging on a mad sugar rush in Omega-5, claiming Hessian lives as we speak, running supplies and smugglers through Omega-47. To stop that is our top priority at the moment. I believe the high officer cadre as well as the RRA will agree with this stance in full.

To the Zoner Council: You have the stance of your "admiral" at least partially to blame for this. I suggest diplomacy lessons for this individual.

Meisnerr
