Elder Alexander,

If I see anyone attacking a trade vessel who personally requests my aid, I will give it. Perhaps, in the future, BrotherHood vessels will identify their reasons for entering, of all places, Honshu and assaulting a trader. I am sorry for the lack of communications between our forces and your forces, but I will not apologize; no faction has the right to enter our space and, without warning, attack others.

I was one of the persons who engaged one of your most trusted men. Perhaps simply declaring "One moment, I can explain this whole thing" would have been sufficient to stay the attacks. No such outcry was heard or registered in our banks. Ergo, it was not given.

I leave the implications up to you,
Ambassador F. H. deLuna
