I appologize Sister, it is not I but some of my Governor's who raised those concerns. I did not mean to offend.

As for further aid shipments, let me no when you wish to make further arrangements.

Lal, I am not some infantile child who is incapable of making a rational decision when I am insulted. I did not withdraw the Data Angels from the Alliance to spite. Quite simply, the Chiron Alliance does not what mean what it did when I signed on, and I see no further need to be a part of it. I will make arrangements with those I can work with outside of the agreements of the Alliance. And no matter what how much your General Braddock hopes to see me come crawling back, I have no plans for further relations with the U.N. for the time being.

My time with the Alliance is over Lal accept what has happened and move on.

Roze,
We don't want you to crawl.
We just think this is a big mistake by both sides, not just by yourself.
I know you're really not in the mood, but I propose we exchange apologies and get over it.

Now what to do about the election?
In spite of all that has happened, we just might agree to vote for Roze if she was to return to the alliance. However, that doesn't seem likely at the moment...

From: U.N. Ambassador Isabella Fuentes
To: Planetary Council

The Spartan representative speaks of war. This comes as no surprise. However, he takes an interesting approach this time. Invulnerable armies?? Come on! We all know that such a notion is about as close to reality as dry rain or flat mountains. While we welcome any attempt to defuse potentially dangerous situations, we fail to see Sparta doing anything of the kind. If Spartans want peace, then they should withdraw from the Western Continent and allow that conflict to be settled in a civilized manner instead of seeking only to escalate it further.

None taken, Datajack. Governors can sometimes get problematic
The BDC forgot to mention the Aid supplies in the statement, but I can say beforehand that at least one or two convoys more will be needed.
The Believers will pay their debts in the future, Roze, and I would like to say that you can have all of my support in your endeavour to withdraw from the Alliance.

Private Message
From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Spartan Representative Karl Solo

Greetings,

I am Cult Ambassador Quzer, the official representative of The Cult of Planet in the Planetary Council.
Ambassador, I have only one question. Why? Why are you still thirsty for revenge? You preach to other factions to avoid war, but your faction continues to throw more coal into the war between us and the Believers.
You value factional sovereignity, but you constantly meddle into others business. This war might have ended a long time ago, if it wasn´t for you and the Hive pushing the foolish Believers to throw themselves into the mercy of the fungus and the worms.

So, why? Is this because we helped the Peacekeepers defend themselves against your aggression so long ago? Believe me, that was just business, they gave us technology and we gave them troops. Or is this just some long lasted plan to get the votes of the Believers for your leader?
What do you want from us!? tell us your terms so we might get atleast a few steps closer to ending this bloody and pointless crusade.

[Sprayber]

To: Planetary Council
From: Spartan Representative Karl Solo

I just want to remind the UN Ambassador that the only ones on the western continent that is there uninvited are the Peacekeepers. In fact, Sparta was forced to increase our troop numbers because of the uninvited UN presence. Their so called outpost called New Hope, is an affront to factional sovereignty. Where will be the next place they intervene? Should the Data Angels and Morganites expect UN troops to appear on their border?

Colonel Santiago will be arriving at the Planetary Council Base in a few weeks.

To: Cult Ambassador Quzer
From: Spartan Representative Karl Solo

Ambassador Quzer, Sparta has a long memory. What you refer to as just business was taken as an insult to our honor. But our current relations is by no means solely determined by your slight all those years ago. As in your case earlier, this is a matter of business. This is not the place to talk of terms. Any talks must include our allies the Believers. I can say that if you would be willing to offer the good Sister Miriam Spore Runner Sanctum and Nest of Fear as buffer zones, she may be willing to call of her crusade. This is off the record of course.

From: Colonel Santiago

Sister Miriam. As you may be aware of by now a convoy of transports is on its way to Redemption Base. Once the convoy enters Believer waters, title of the two transports will be turned over to you. We have recently been building cruiser transports to replace our fleet. The transports that you will be take possession of have gone through inspections to make sure that you are getting excellent equipment. Along with the transport you will receive the equipment that you requested. The escorting cruiser Leonides and its supporting foils will return to Spartan waters after the hand over is made. If you desire, the Leonides can transport any individuals you choose back to Sparta where they will be given access to the Command Nexus in Sparta Command. There they can provide input into upcoming operations on your continent.

I have a question for you. At Commanders keep, a colony pod is nearing completion. I would like to transport that colony pod to the large island off the west coast of your territory. Near Redemption Base. This would serve as our headquarters in your area of the world. This could also be used as a marshalling point for any future troops that the situation may require. The facilities there will of course be made available to Believing Troops on a needed basis. We are also preparing a plan to secure the Mount Planet area since we fear that the Pirates are threatening to reieforce their presence in the area. This would entail establising an outpost at the coordinants (66,100). This is a stratigic jucture near the base of Mount Planet and and the sea. This in no way means that we are claiming this as Spartan territory. Even though this is an unclaimed region, we view this as future Believer terriory. In fact we activly encourage ,if at all possible, for you to establish a Believer presence in this region. I believe that my respresentive in your capital has already mentioned this.

On a final note. Our representative in the Planetary Council has reveived a message from the Cult ambassador. I instructed him to remain vague about any possible peace terms. I had him suggest that if the Cult were to cede Spore Runner Sanctum and Nest of Fear to you then the Believers may be interested in peace terms. In this matter, Sparta will continue to defer to your authority on peace terms. I am about to depart for the Planetary Council Base. In my absence, Marshal Kessel will have full authority to run the Spartan Federation. I will depart from Sparta's western shore and head towards your territory. I have decided to make my way to the Planatery Council Base by way of your territory in order that I might visit my troops stationed there. When my fleet arrives at Redemption Base one of my transport jets will be waiting to fly me the rest of the way to the Council Base. If you wish, you may accompany me to the Council Session. If not then I fully understand. I even look forward to possibly meet you if your busy schedule premits. Does this meet with your approval.

From: U.N. Ambassador Isabella Fuentes
To: Planetary Council

I am well aware that our presence on the Western Continent is - in the words of the Spartan representative - "uninvited". We are not about to just sit idly by and watch a disaster of this magnitude simply because nobody sees fit to "invite" us to try and do something about it. That is not the way we work and you all know it.

The Spartan representative claims that "Sparta was forced to increase our troop numbers because of the uninvited UN presence".

Interesting...
Will you claim you were "forced" to attack us next?

Well, Corazon, I'm sure you've heard by now. I will not be defending my position as Planetary Governor.

The Americans learned two centuries ago on Earth that when you cannot unite your clique, to the last tiny nation, you will fall to someone who can. That is why I have thrown in the towel. Divided, we can be overpowered one by one by that maniac Svensgaard or that adolescent Roze. Together, we shall stand.

But I implore you, Corazon, to keep a level head. Being the Governor does not make you invulnerable. Do not allow yourself to be provoked into something that you cannot control. Roze is willing to throw away everything to hurt her enemies. Please, do not lower yourself to her level.

At the Planetary Council Base...

U.N. Ambassador Isabella Fuentes receives some kind of message and disappear momentarily. When she returns, there is a smug, satisfied look on her face. She walks right over to the Spartan delegation, where she stops in front of Karl Solo's desk, looks him straight in the eye and winks suggestively. She takes a deep breath and lets out a blissful sigh.

"Well, well... Where do you want me to start?"

[Sprayber]

Representative Solo responds to the Ambassador's question by saying that "Well you can start by telling me where you got that wonderful perfume. Because I have already been informed about the rest of what I know you want to talk about." Solo leans back in his chair. "And before we get into a pointless argument, I would remind the Ambassador that Sparta has never signed any peace treaty with the Cult of Planet. Therefore we are breaking no rules. In fact, our patience has been remarkable for the past 17 years. Considering Sparta is technically still at war with the Cult, the fact that we haven't lauched a full scale invasion of their territory is speaks highly of our restraint. Oh and before you drag this out into council, I would wait just a bit. Considering our forces have obtained information about offensive weapons being place somewhat near your New Hope." Solo leans forward and gets close to the PK Ambassador. "Isabella, How is it that such weapons could be in place without PK knowledge?"

General Message
From: Father Theodore Deacon
To: Representative Isabella Fuentes of the Peacekeepers,
and the Planetary Council

I would like to hear some of what was going on in our southern aerospace. Spartan jets and Hive choppers engaged Cult units, as the Believers, the Hive and the Spartans have agreed upon, and suddenly New Hope dispatched interceptors forcing the Spartans to disengage. The Spartans have not established a peace treaty with the Cult, and I am anxious to learn, what were the rights that entitled the Peacekeeper jets to intervene?
Not to mention the fact that the Believers have not been informed of PK aerial capabilities stationed near their borders. This could be considered an act of war.

Your support for our military effort is greatly appreciated. Without your help, the Cult's locusts could plague our faction with no avail. I am going to question Lal on intercepting your craft.

To: Planetary Council

Dear Council,

The University would like to inquire about an interesting matter.

We were informed of a certain 'situation' by a "source" (OOC: Morganite Ally Traders) and we have reason to believe that certain factions have been shooting at their allies.

This is distressing news, and Zakharov would not believe it at first... But after careful consideration and weighing the facts... He decided to ask the council where they stand in relation to war.

The University asks this because we wish to have no part in a war which has nothing to do with us... and everything to do with the Fanatical Believers and... slightly misguided Cultists.

Also, the stance of factions in this alleged... 'war' will affect the University's Planetary Governor vote.

Mister Davidson-Splertrovsky, could you please elaborate on the names of these factions.
And I advice you to refrain from using the word "fanatical", as it has and always has had a bad ring, ever since Earth.
Or would the University have it's citizens be called with as insulting adjectives as "fanatical"?

From: Ambassador Davidson-Splertrovsky

The factions names cannot be cited... However, the belief is that your faction has been receiving aid from at least two factions who do not support the Cult... The University believes in fair play, if one country helps another country against its allies it must have a good reason- it is possible another world war is on the horizon?
