14th Bundschuh Partei-Kongress

[TheJarl]

"Well then, it seems nobody has any objections.

Then it is now time for the last and most important topic of this congress... cardamine..."

She pauses.

"Because, Genossen, we are in a dire situation. The last years were hard for us, we have dwindled in numbers and also lost support. We need supplies and ships and those ships need to be maintained.

Cardamine is a solution. This drug has spread all over Sirius... except Rheinland. Because our fellow revolutionaries as well as us ourselves have said that it would enslave people, make them dependent on the Outcasts. Yet, who are we to deny them this? If they want to use cardamine, who are we to say that they can't.

We fight for freedom and this is also a matter of freedom. The freedom to chose to use cardamine or not.

And if we smuggle cardamine into Rheinland for Outcasts, we will ask them for supplies in return.

Now I know some of you will be concerned as to how the other revolutionary groups will respond to this. But who says they have to know about this? And if they do find out, who says they will bother with it. We are just a small group, being the underdog will be our advantage."

She paused again.

"So what do you think, Genossen?"
