Guten tag,

I represent the interest of the Unioners and while I understand that I do not have a single word to say in all of this, the Council of Zoner's treaty of Bethlehem is a menace to many of the men I have under my command. I also udnerstand that this Treaty was imposed to the Zoners by the Council, something that worries me some. Weren't the Unioners loyal guardians of the Freeport? Weren't the Zoners supposed to be against all form of violence, no matter who you are? Sure, we had a skirmish or two with the Xenos around the Freeport 2, but business is business... eh, anyway, I'm drifiting away from the Subject.

With all the respect of the Union.

Look at you talking about other Zoners! Tearing ourselves apart, ruining our reputation, that is what you're doing! While the Council has extreme measures in it's way to lead, their decisions are far to be forced on all of us. Zoners who aren't chairmen of the Council shouldn't and are not forced to follow Miss Silvan if so they choose. The CoZ is only one of the many Zoners associations we have, and it happens to be the biggest and the most influent. They are ready to lick the boots of the Houses to get credits from them, and this is a subject that worries me more than the leadership of it.

I want to get off Mr. Igiss' wild ride.
