[26.10.817 23:43:50] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: Now for that silly Farmer.
[26.10.817 23:44:23] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I think you will have a hard time finding me.
[26.10.817 23:47:24] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: When we find you, Farmer, you will learn the meaning of pain.
[26.10.817 23:49:01] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: Farmer, GMG claims of Sigma-13 are legit. You will leave our space immediately.
[26.10.817 23:49:13] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: HAHAHAHAHA
[26.10.817 23:49:19] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: *cringe*
[26.10.817 23:49:28] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Your Claims are valid by whose authority?
[26.10.817 23:49:46] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I have not seen the Kusari government say as much.
[26.10.817 23:49:53] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Nor the Rheinland government.
[26.10.817 23:49:57] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: Not only recognized by the Kusari government, but the Rheinlanders too.
[26.10.817 23:50:14] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: They made your mistake too, you know.
[26.10.817 23:50:17] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Rheinland understands who has authority over this system under the treaty they signed...
[26.10.817 23:50:19] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: Just prior to the Eighty..
[26.10.817 23:50:39] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Where would I find the Kusari's approval so I know where to look? cause I cant find it anywhere.
[26.10.817 23:51:20] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I think you are fibbing.
[26.10.817 23:51:28] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: The claim is hundred of years old. Check whatever archives you have access to.
[26.10.817 23:52:04] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I have never seen any Kusari acknowledgment of your claims.
[26.10.817 23:52:18] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: Perhaps you need to clear your eyes then.
[26.10.817 23:52:22] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: And I have studied the relevant documents quite thoroughly.
[26.10.817 23:53:02] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: In what document does Kusari say this?
[26.10.817 23:54:48] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: That is what I thought. More GMG lies.
[26.10.817 23:55:41] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Hah. If Kusari doesn't recognize GMG's sovereignty over the system then they do not acknowledge the treaty that ended the war.
[26.10.817 23:55:57] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: In which the GMG was forced to pay reparations to the Kusari government...
[26.10.817 23:56:06] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Selective reading you have...
[26.10.817 23:56:46] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: The GMG paid reparations to Kusari?
[26.10.817 23:56:58] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: We do not expect simple Farmers to know such things.
[26.10.817 23:57:11] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Hai, and much of that money went out to Hokkaido projects...
[26.10.817 23:57:56] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I have a doctorate from University of Kyushu in History thank you very much, and reparations only
[26.10.817 23:58:18] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: indicate your organization did something wrong, not a justification of territorial claims.
[26.10.817 23:59:20] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: But I wouldn't expect some hick from the border worlds to understand that.
[27.10.817 00:00:01] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Reparations were paid to the government not because the GMG did wrong...
[27.10.817 00:00:31] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: That goes against the definition of what a reparation is.
[27.10.817 00:00:35] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Kusari provided monetary assistance to the Gas Miners Guild during the war
[27.10.817 00:00:56] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: That is called repaying a loan.
[27.10.817 00:00:57] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: The reparations were forced under the treaty to repay the government...
[27.10.817 00:01:17] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I believe sir you have your history all screwy.
[27.10.817 00:01:22] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Hai, but they were classified as "reparations"
[27.10.817 00:01:51] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: To this day, Rheinland doesn't know about the assistance the Guild received...
[27.10.817 00:02:01] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Still not a acknowledgment of territorial sovereignty.
[27.10.817 00:02:44] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Kusari has not once acknowledged the GMG as holding sovereignty over any territory.
***At this point, Hatsumi finds the Farmer approximately 100k above the solar plane, and between the Gas Miner Naha and the Jumpgate to Honshu, and hunt turns to pursuit ***
[27.10.817 00:03:01] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: You can't hide.
[27.10.817 00:03:22] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: This is our nebula.
[27.10.817 00:03:29] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Whether you chose to acknowledge it
[27.10.817 00:03:39] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: or make the same mistake Rheinland did all those years ago
[27.10.817 00:04:21] [|]Kokuryu: Got some trouble I can help with?
[27.10.817 00:04:34] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: I don't think so.
[27.10.817 00:04:46] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: These silly miners think they are like a house or something.
[27.10.817 00:05:04] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Kusari is a house...
[27.10.817 00:05:28] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: The GMG is a sovereign and independent organization, not governed by another house.
[27.10.817 00:05:31] [|]Kokuryu: Ah! Same ole pretensions... let them dream
[27.10.817 00:05:37] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Then tell us
[27.10.817 00:05:40] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Indeed.
[27.10.817 00:05:41] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Who governs us?
[27.10.817 00:06:01] [|]Kokuryu: Exactly... a rabble
[27.10.817 00:06:05] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: If we are not independent then who governs us?
[27.10.817 00:06:11] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: No one, does not mean you govern others.
[27.10.817 00:06:22] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: We govern ourselves.
[27.10.817 00:06:26] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Hai.
[27.10.817 00:06:33] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: The latter is irrelevant.
[27.10.817 00:06:52] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: So then you have no authority to tell anyone but yourselves what to do.
[27.10.817 00:07:15] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: In the space that we control, you'll follow our orders or pay the price...
[27.10.817 00:07:32] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: That's my point exactly, you don't control any space.
[27.10.817 00:07:44] [|]Kokuryu: Yeah.. what space?
[27.10.817 00:07:54] GMG|Taro.Katsuo: The space I'm about to boot you both out of.
[27.10.817 00:07:59] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Yet, we do. It is us fighting against the Outcasts and Corsairs
[27.10.817 00:08:03] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: It was us who fought against Rheinland
[27.10.817 00:08:22] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: It's us who just saved that IMG transport from piracy.
[27.10.817 00:08:24] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: No one cares.
[27.10.817 00:08:35] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: You don't care because you don't chose to.
[27.10.817 00:09:27] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: You are just some borderworldsmen, your territorial claims mean nothing to anyone but yourselves.
[27.10.817 00:10:21] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Borderworldsmen who have a stranglehold on one of the most important commodities in all of Sirius.
[27.10.817 00:10:33] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Who have fought and died in this nebula...
[27.10.817 00:10:47] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: That is until Hokkaido gets up and running.
[27.10.817 00:11:18] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Hokkaido? I hear the radiation there is unbearable... have fun with that.
[27.10.817 00:11:34] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Erm... tell Samura to enjoy....
[27.10.817 00:12:18] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Hogosha-san, how goes the Artifact trade?
[27.10.817 00:13:14] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Seems he left.
[27.10.817 00:13:28] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Oh well, I hear they make loads of money off of it.
[27.10.817 00:13:55] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Yes, the competition with the HFuel business is unbearable...
[27.10.817 00:14:49] [AFA]The.Silly.Lily.: Yet you cant keep a little freighter out of your "territory"...laughable.
[27.10.817 00:15:13] GMG|Sum.Yungai: Space is big, all you have to threaten us with is words.
[27.10.817 00:15:18] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Anyone can take advantage of Jumpholes...
***The pursuit ends, and the Correo turns to fight***
[27.10.817 00:16:14] GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi.: Foolish.
[27.10.817 00:17:43] Death:[AFA]The.Silly.Lily. was put out of action by GMG|Kasugai.Hatsumi. (Gun).
