Konnichiwa brothers,

I bring mixed news. Yesterday Hogosha scouts reported Cartel presence in Kyushu, and I responded in the gunboat Kusari Pride. The Cartel vessel ran, but on my return two GC vessels had taken down the trade lane and were openly pirating merchant vessels. While fortunately their latest victim escaped in their distraction, our vessel was not so lucky. Pride was heavily damaged despite the valiant efforts of her crew. The enemy vessels, Amenouzume and Aki.Shikyo were a gunboat armed with battle razors and a bomber, which were too much for our lone vessel. Nonetheless, in the last minutes of battle a Hogosha warrior named Yama****a Heikichi, belonging to some syndicate I did not recognize joined the fray, evening things considerably.

These ugly GC women have shown themselves for the common thugs they are. Perhaps next time they will not be so lucky . . .

On a more positive note, supply missions to our Gaian allies have been a rousing success, attracting no Bretonian attention. Within the past two weeks our ship Anauma has brought high tech equipment, "recreational supplies", and this latest batch of light arms to support the Gaian efforts against the Bretonian government:



We will continue our smuggling runs to support the Gaians so long as they remain logistically feasible (i.e. attract little official Bretonian attention). Perhaps in return we can get the Gaians to supply us with more of their beautiful Claymore gunships . . .
