We'€™re seeing an increase amount of transport ships transporting Copper ore to the Liberty systems. More specifically, ships belonging to the Independent Miners Guild. We'€™re not even seeking out these guys, they'€™re just poppin up all over like this one in Stuttgart. We followed them all the way through New Berlin, seeing if they had a mite bit of sense in them, sadly we had to remind them of that funnly little thing called a war and the embargo. We'€™re asking them to head to Bretonia and they say that'€™s where they'€™re going to, but unless Hamburg has some secret way into Bretonia, they are flat out lying to us. The law is the law, aint no two ways about it. I got no room in my heart for people dun take the law and make it somthin its not.

But this story has an ironic type ending. See he landed somewhere in New Berlin and I figured that varmint would try to make an end run on me through a different system. Didn'€™t know the boy had less sense in him then a mule, trying to go through Military guard territory. No way I was going to follow him in there. Seconds later, that copper ore he valued so much went into space with the rest of his ship. I dun told that boy that he could head to Bretonia with no issues. Guess greed gets them all in the end. You can run from justice, but ya cant escape it forever.
