RM Directive: RMHC to SA and FEAR

[Craines]

Admiral Krieg, we have had many, MANY disagreements in the past, especially in regards to your, um, capital punishments, but for once I do agree.

I was born in Rheinland, and I will always declare myself of such origin. Rheinland should not be a battleground, not after those... past events. And so, I am in total agreement.

The Kusari Naval Forces will not declare the Southern Alliance enemies of the state, or even persona non grata, but the FEAR will still be regarded with the same uneasy eye that they are now. You have my word that I will continually petition the Chancellor to have the Southern Alliance pardoned, or at least allowed an embassy in your courts. Until such a time when I am listened to by said Chancellor, however, I shall say that the Kusari Naval Forces does not support the Southern Alliance's punishment, and that the Southern Alliance may take asylum within the systems of Honshu and Shikoku, should such action be necessary.

FEAR is still requested to remain outside of House Kusari territory, as the events of the past have not yet settled in our collective stomachs. Indeed, the citizens of House Kusari, be they civilian or otherwise, have not forgiven the FEAR yet, and until such a time as they are pardoned by the Emperor, will be forcibly removed from the systems of House Kusari origin.

I also wish to know whether the Rheinland Military would support the Kusari Naval Forces in decreeing that Kusari space should also be void of conflict, under penalty of arrest and judgment in Honshu? Thank you for whatever reply you give.

Warmly,
Madam Fiona H. deLuna
Ambassador of the Kusari Naval Forces
