[11.01.2011 19:10:01] Angela.Corino(Emissary): We might have something to talk about, Jones. But this needs a little more, shall I say... privacy.
[11.01.2011 19:10:23] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: something to talk about?
[11.01.2011 19:10:28] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: what, precisely?
[11.01.2011 19:11:29] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Yes... No doubt IAB have been making up a dossier on me for quite a while.
[11.01.2011 19:12:04] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Judging by your "escorts", I can see why they would
[11.01.2011 19:12:40] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Too much noise around. Perhaps we should... take a distance further.
[11.01.2011 19:13:02] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Pick location. I can guarantee my companions will do no harm to you.
[11.01.2011 19:13:09] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Sorry, but I'm not about to break away from the group
[11.01.2011 19:13:28] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Your group may come.
[11.01.2011 19:13:34] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Except BMM.
[11.01.2011 19:14:48] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I'm not about to split the group in any way
[11.01.2011 19:15:03] Keepers.Gerra: ***{A faint signal appears, it starts to move towards 5 kilometars, 4 kilometars}***
[11.01.2011 19:15:25] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I've seen those things in combat, and I'm not even sure if we've got the forces to take them on even with the BMM
[11.01.2011 19:15:37] Angela.Corino(Emissary): There'll be no bloodshed.
[11.01.2011 19:15:45] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Not this time. And no harm.
[11.01.2011 19:16:15] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I have no reason to trust you
[11.01.2011 19:16:48] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I know you don't. But I'm here to talk.
[11.01.2011 19:16:54] Angela.Corino(Emissary): And only to talk.
[11.01.2011 19:17:15] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: And what could you say that would be of interest to the BAF?
[11.01.2011 19:17:37] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Perhaps... if you are concerned with my "escort" we can simply meet elsewhere without them.
[11.01.2011 19:18:28] Angela.Corino(Emissary): They are merely a protection. You know how dangerous this place can turn to in a matter of few moments.
[11.01.2011 19:20:18] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Since trust is complicated in this matter you can decide it.
[11.01.2011 19:20:44] Angela.Corino(Emissary): As a gesture, knowing the risks implied.
[11.01.2011 19:20:50] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: 3k out from the IMG battleship hood sound reasonable?
[11.01.2011 19:21:17] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I would like to avoid traffic coming in and out.
[11.01.2011 19:21:49] 2011-01-11 19:21:54 SMT
[11.01.2011 19:21:57] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Agent, the outcast will split off from the nomads for a short time. I will be going with her
[11.01.2011 19:22:08] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Have the forces keep close watch on the nomads
[11.01.2011 19:22:30] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: if they move, or do anything suspicious, destroy them
[11.01.2011 19:23:00] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: If I don't return within 15 minutes, contact me
[11.01.2011 19:23:03] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Lead on.
[11.01.2011 19:23:14] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: if I don't respond, head to my comms beacon
[11.01.2011 19:23:59] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Agent Timberwolf is in command in my absence
[11.01.2011 19:24:47] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: we're here. What did you need to talk about?
[11.01.2011 19:25:16] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Before that... do you have an idea who I am?
[11.01.2011 19:25:37] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: the IAB are very secretive about their records
[11.01.2011 19:25:50] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I have a few theories of my own
[11.01.2011 19:26:40] Angela.Corino(Emissary): To clean up possible misunderstandings and rumors there might be I'm a human just like you.
[11.01.2011 19:27:18] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I'd hardly say that you're "just like me"
[11.01.2011 19:27:32] Angela.Corino(Emissary): In a biological sense.
[11.01.2011 19:28:50] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Perhaps, if you don't count the genetic mutation from Cardamine
[11.01.2011 19:28:58] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: so, shall we get to the point?
[11.01.2011 19:29:15] Angela.Corino(Emissary): True enough. Man of a few words are you? You want to get it straight to the point?
[11.01.2011 19:29:48] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Indeed. IAB agents are known for their ruthlessness, and I don't want any unnecessary losses
[11.01.2011 19:30:13] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Understandable. The situation just occured must have surprised you greately.
[11.01.2011 19:30:50] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I'm used to nomads trying to attack me or mess with my mind
[11.01.2011 19:31:01] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: so this is more unexpected than surprising
[11.01.2011 19:31:59] Angela.Corino(Emissary): *smiles* At least so. I am... shall we say, a messenger.
[11.01.2011 19:32:54] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Communication between my associates, that you erroneously call "nomads", and humans is complicated.
[11.01.2011 19:33:10] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I've seen that first hand
[11.01.2011 19:34:00] Angela.Corino(Emissary): It is unfortunate at times when misunderstandings break out.
[11.01.2011 19:35:22] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Bold as it may sound... madness it may seem... my associates would like to deliver a message.
[11.01.2011 19:36:06] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Considering difficulties of human interpretation of the telepathic communications it is only logical that a human does so.
[11.01.2011 19:36:25] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: It still requires a nomad to human transfer of information
[11.01.2011 19:36:39] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: how can you be sure that what the nomad "said" to you is correct?
[11.01.2011 19:36:50] Angela.Corino(Emissary): No it does not. I'm here talking to you. I am not infested and I am the one that delivers the message.
[11.01.2011 19:38:18] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Suggest we take a distance from the jumphole and routes.
[11.01.2011 19:39:09] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Just follow me.
[11.01.2011 19:39:11] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: the south-western edge of the smog cloud is probably far enough
[11.01.2011 19:40:12] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: As I was pointing out previously though, you would still have recieved information from a nomad
[11.01.2011 19:40:59] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: although admittedly someone able to apparently hire them as escorts shouldn't make too many mistakes in translation
[11.01.2011 19:41:37] Angela.Corino(Emissary): It takes a long time to understand and interpret telepathy right. For most it makes little sense.
[11.01.2011 19:41:44] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Like little shards of a broken mirror.
[11.01.2011 19:42:01] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Each one so small and seems doesn't make it up with any other.
[11.01.2011 19:42:29] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: reminds me of greek, in a way. Shattering the original sentence and sticking it back together in a different order and language
[11.01.2011 19:42:51] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Ah, didn't know you're a linguist too, Jones.
[11.01.2011 19:43:14] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I went to a Bretonian middle school. I had greek beaten into me by the masters
[11.01.2011 19:43:32] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: and that sort of teaching stays with you
[11.01.2011 19:43:56] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Yes, I've read about it. Classic, "old ways" of teaching, not like the modern academies.
[11.01.2011 19:44:10] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: so, shall we skirt around the topic of my history and move on to the message you bring?
[11.01.2011 19:44:49] Angela.Corino(Emissary): My associates would like for me to speak on their behalf to you and your command.
[11.01.2011 19:45:19] Death: [Admin]JihadJoe was put out of action by [Admin]Kingvaillant (Gun).
[11.01.2011 19:45:36] Death: [Admin]Kingvaillant was killed by Schrödinger's cat.
[11.01.2011 19:45:45] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I understand it is hard to believe... and even harder to comprehend.
[11.01.2011 19:46:29] Angela.Corino(Emissary): With so many rumors, tales and lies spread around their voice is never heard.
[11.01.2011 19:47:52] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Maybe, judging by Das Wilde, that's a good thing
[11.01.2011 19:48:13] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: the last time their voice was heard around Sirius nearly led the houses to utter collapse
[11.01.2011 19:48:43] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Times changes. And all that what was is no longer the same.
[11.01.2011 19:51:21] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: would you mind hurrying up with the message? It appears that your associates are a little unruly when you're not around
[11.01.2011 19:52:52] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I have just told you - I seek to speak with BAF command.
[11.01.2011 19:53:17] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Understanding the difficulty it would be on your terms.
[11.01.2011 19:53:17] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Unfortunately, that will not happen
[11.01.2011 19:53:56] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: even without your escorts, a person with that much influence over something that dangerous isn't someone who I can allow
[11.01.2011 19:54:09] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: to have the chance to cut off the head of Bretonia, if you will
[11.01.2011 19:54:35] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I'm prepared for necessary sacrifices if that would require so.
[11.01.2011 19:54:42] Angela.Corino(Emissary): On your terms.
[11.01.2011 19:54:42] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: However, this meeting is being recorded and transmitted to BAF command
[11.01.2011 19:54:56] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Your place. Your rules.
[11.01.2011 19:55:04] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I am only a messenger.
[11.01.2011 19:55:49] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: In that case, my rules will be this.
[11.01.2011 19:57:05] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: the meeting will take place in space, 35k above the E5 sector of New London system
[11.01.2011 19:57:48] Angela.Corino(Emissary): as you wish
[11.01.2011 19:57:51] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: You will give the message you have to a fighter, either manned by myself or another admiral. This fighter will share a direct
[11.01.2011 19:58:01] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: link to BAF high command aboard the Harlow
[11.01.2011 19:58:48] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I'm not completely certain of your human-ness, or lack of the mental domination abilities I've seen employed by nomads
[11.01.2011 19:59:21] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: so I feel that this is the safest way for you to give a message to our leaders without endangering them
[11.01.2011 19:59:22] Angela.Corino(Emissary): //suggest the emissary just arrives, since it's not like "a message", it's to be a dialogue
[11.01.2011 20:00:42] Angela.Corino(Emissary): you are free to do medical scanning
[11.01.2011 20:00:56] Angela.Corino(Emissary): you'll find that other than being an outast there is nothing else to me
[11.01.2011 20:01:20] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Advanced medical scanning equipment isn't available on my ship. Takes up too much weight
[11.01.2011 20:01:30] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I can just about tell that you're alive, and that's it
[11.01.2011 20:01:39] Angela.Corino(Emissary): you'll be able to perform that onboard Harlow
[11.01.2011 20:01:54] Angela.Corino(Emissary): it does have most advanced medical facilities, am I right?
[11.01.2011 20:02:09] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: and give you access to one of our battleships?
[11.01.2011 20:02:27] Angela.Corino(Emissary): put on a gun to my head if you will
[11.01.2011 20:02:45] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: This still doesn't solve the basic problem
[11.01.2011 20:03:07] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: If you're a liar, you would be entirely capable of stopping the person from pulling the trigger
[11.01.2011 20:03:48] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: and hence your supposed offer of safety to us only helps if you are telling the truth, which would mean no need for medical scanning
[11.01.2011 20:03:49] Angela.Corino(Emissary): I expect Harlow has security and force enough to hold an entire kusarian naval boarding.
[11.01.2011 20:06:20] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I cannot allow the risk that the admirals may become infested
[11.01.2011 20:06:38] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Your scanners there can prove I am not infested.
[11.01.2011 20:07:04] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: However, a conversation should be completely doable through my idea
[11.01.2011 20:07:17] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Agent, the Outcast has requested a meeting with the Admiralty
[11.01.2011 20:07:18] Angela.Corino(Emissary): The moment scanner would positively identify as infested I would be dead with a bullet in my head, we both know that.
[11.01.2011 20:07:57] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: Do you have any idea of how we can do so without endangering them?
[11.01.2011 20:08:15] IAB)Timberwolf.: My gut tells me it's an ambush.
[11.01.2011 20:08:26] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I still cannot allow the risk, and the agent agrees
[11.01.2011 20:09:03] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: We will be quite able to hold a conversation through a proxy ship
[11.01.2011 20:09:20] Angela.Corino(Emissary): These are difficult times, risks are necessary, and risk I'm putting myself is much greater.
[11.01.2011 20:10:31] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: and how is one person's life greater than the lives of an entire house?
[11.01.2011 20:11:26] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Some structures are held by pillars you least expect them to be.
[11.01.2011 20:13:31] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I've repeatedly offered a perfectly valid solution for your meeting with the Admiralty, would you mind giving me your reason for refusing?
[11.01.2011 20:13:34] 2011-01-11 20:13:40 SMT
[11.01.2011 20:14:51] Angela.Corino(Emissary): Trust. I shall consult with my associates.
[11.01.2011 20:15:30] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: and I will relay the logs of our meeting to the Admiralty
[11.01.2011 20:16:23] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: My meeting with the Emissary is finished
[11.01.2011 20:16:49] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: The logs will be transfered to the DIS under high encryption
[11.01.2011 20:18:56] BAF|Adm.Robert.Jones: I'll need some time to clear my head. Timberwolf, you're in command

---Message begins. File type: Audio
Damn, I was hoping it would take longer to finish cleaning and uploading than that. Ah...Great...Message autostarted, didn't it. Well, you've got my report, it's up to you to decide how to deal with it. Also, we shot down Roger Claymore's transport and two allies, the False Miner, and a molly gunboat who attacked us. Now, I could do with a drink...Oh, before I forget, the ship was escorted by 4 nomads, who were non-hostile until the Emissary left, wherupon the Agent and other allied forces engaged and destroyed them.
