Commander Leigh steps up to the podium and inserts a datachip into the holoprojector.
"Greetings honoured Blood Dragons," he says, bowing his head slightly.
"I come before you today with two worrying reports."
He switches on the holo projector. A copy of a comms log appears.
"Mostly due to the foolishness of this pilot in requesting access to Order space, it has come to my attention that Samura is looking to aquire alien artifacts for research purposes."
He pauses.
"Although the pilot claimed that the research is benign, given Samura's record I have reason to believe that they are attempting to put their research to military use."
"If they are successful in this endeavour then the implications for the Blood Dragons and the whole of Kusari could be dire."
He switches off the holo projector and continues.
"This brings me onto my second report requested by the Shogunate concerning the recent events with the TCG."
He stops to adjust his flight suit.
"To put it simply, the TCG have betrayed the Order. They have destroyed Order vessels, killed Order personel and attempted to assassinate Admiral Osbourne."
"To make matters worse they have now escaped into the Omicron systems, killing more Order personel in the process."
"Although their intentions are unknown to us at this time, we can now say that they are well and truly traitors to the Order."
"Although there are currently no plans to hunt them down due to our limited resources, we ask that if they do stray as far as Kusari the Blood Dragons offer them no assistance accorded to the Order by the treaty between our two groups."
He removes the data chip from the projector and steps away from the podium.
"Thank you for your time."
He bows to the Taishogun and returns to the crowd.
