Chiron Chronicles: Planetary Council

[[LordLMP]]

Perhaps we were hasty in the classification of the Drones, but nevertheless the question remains... And how can YOU claim that Genetically-Engineered HUMAN-beings are not human. I laugh at that statement. :laugh:

How I can claim genetically-engineered people are not Human beings? Simple, by looking at YOU and listening to your unethicaly idiotic nonsence.

It appears that we have a teenager controlling the Pirate faction. I heard that the Captain was more professional than that. Perhaps some of the Chiron Alliance members can now see what we are dealing with here.

My good friend. The proposal you have mentioned is an excellent one. I would like to run something past you. Colonel Santiago has asked if Chairman Yang would consider supporting a possible stand in for the Colonel. Her possible plan is to have Miriam run in her place. This way, our two factions can enjoy some measure of insulation from criticism. And the Believers can gain some measure of higher standing in the interfactional community. Of course this may ruin the chances of Morgan and Zak combining with us. The Colonel doesn't really relish the thought of being burdened by the day to day running of the planetary government. But wants it to stay out of the hands of the Alliance while the Pirates are running around like spoiled children.

Thank you Miriam for your words of support. We in Sparta have come to think of the Believers as equal partners and will support you in whatever way we can. Your loyality will be long remembered here in Sparta.

(OOC: Santiago really does appreciate Miriam's loyality and will remember it.)

From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Planetary Council

Quezer, why protect the native life which fights us and attempts to destroy us? This sounds anti-evolutionary. Are you and your faction living in the stone age, worshiping the native flora and fauna. Embrace the future. Religion and its ilk are disgusting and merely imaginary subjects. The only truth is Humanity. And Humanity is only achieved by conquest and betterment.

And why don´t they fight our faction? Because we treat them right. We don´t hunt them, we don´t want to kill them and we don´t burn their homelands to ashes. We, a part of Humanity, are helping the Chironians, and they in turn are helping us.Do not be such a bigot.
We do not practise a religion here, although it might look like. To comparison with the believers, we don´t worship some long dead God.
As you said, we worship the native flora and fauna, but they atleast answers back.

Zakharov has expressed interest in the Ecological conference, if only to note his displeasure, if the Cult representative will attend our Nerve Gas Summit.

We will gladly join in the form of observers, if only to see how much does your miracle gas really affect the native lifeforms.

Ambassador,

Thank you for the gracious invitation to the ecological summit. CEO Morgan has instructed me to deliver his acceptance. Due to a minor domestic problem that is currently occupying his attention, he deeply regrets not being able to reply in person.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Sincerely,
Council Liaison Aron Fleischer

I have given much thought to recent developments, and I wish to inform you that I am now considering dropping out of the race and endorsing Colonel Santiago for Governor.

Our analysis of the situation is not promising, suggesting that the best we can hope for if I remain in the race is a three-way standoff, or even a Roze victory. Even if the Alliance's votes are split, my continued candidacy would only result in unnecessary friction between our factions. I will keep you all informed on this matter.

In friendship,
CEO Nwabudike Morgan

As there already seems to be hightened interest towards the Ecological Summit, it is decided to hold the summit in Province Xeno, a few weeks after the elections.

The main subject of talk is, of course, the native ecology and how to improve our interaction with it.
Participants will receive the blueprints of how to build Centauri Preserves, and can show off their newest technologies in the area of ecology.

Also, the participants are free to ask our representatives anything related to the topic of ecology. Help against indigenous lifeform attacks, how to control safely fungus blooms, what are spawning periods for mindworms in different areas, you name it...

From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Liaison Fleischer and Ambassador Ian Davidson-Splertrovsky

Gentlemen,

I´d like to ask a favor from you. We are getting low on mindworms, and we need more of them to uphold our faction against the constant threat the Believers present to us.
Our scientists and psychics have evaluated the central continent and have all agreed, that the mindworm spawning rate there is atleast four times greater than on any other continent. So, we are asking permission to send a few special mindworm capturing units, not even worth one military unit altogether, on your respected territories and capture any wild mindworms found there.
So, if you have a problem with local mindworms, we can help. And to guarantee our good intentions, we will send every new captured worm straight back home, so no mindworm armies will form on your territories.
Also, if you wish, our special units can teach your specialists about how to avoid mindworm attacks and what to do when a base is under attack by mindworms.

Yours sincerely,
Ambassador Quzer

For a faction that preaches soverignty and keeping factional concerns private, the Spartan Ambassador certainly has a fondness for attempting to interfere in Chiron Alliance relations. We will decide who we keep as allies, and your opinion of them is of little difference to us.

We would also like to take this opportunity to gratefully accept the Cult Ambassador's invitation to the Ecological Summit. We certainly hope that we have as much to offer to the inter-factional community as the Cult has already put on the table.

Corazon, I am glad that you have decided to run. Let's just hope that Morgan, Yang and possibly others will back you up. We are powerful factions, and there are other powerful factions aswell, but there is only one omnipotent being, and you have His blessing in your endeavour.

Ambassador,

I have relayed your proposal to CEO Morgan and the Executive Board, and they find it acceptable. We look forward to receiving your specialists.

Let us speak again soon to arrange the details of the operation.

In addition, CEO Morgan intends to attend the ecological summit personally, and he looks forward to visiting Xeno Province.

Sincerely,

Thank, my good Colonel, for your proposal, however, I am somewhat sceptical of Miriam's capacity to protect our interests as planetary governor. I would suggest that either, you, Morgan, or I would do best as planetary governor. Miriam's fanaticism makes her unreliable and unpopular, Morgan's mercantalism makes him controversial within our block and beyond, while I am at least as open to that criticism as the good CEO. So I humbly suggest that you, as a rugged individualist and woman of honor, are best suited to the post of planetary governor. If you are unwilling to serve in this capacity, I suggest that we put up Morgan as planetary governor, as he can be relied on to support us and no doubt a small sum of energy credits could convince Miriam of Morgan's piety.

Yours,

Sheng-ji Yang, chairman, Hive central committee

From: Sau-ji Tseng
To: CEO Morgan

Please, do not drop out yet. I am currently negotiating the matter with Colonel Santiago, and it appears that you may be the candidate we both choose to support. If we do choose to support you, a modest sum of energy credits may need to be transferred to Miriam's coffers to ensure her support.

Sincerely,

Sau-ji Tseng, minister of Foriegn relations, Hive central committee

[Sprayber]

To: Planetary Council
From: Spartan Representative Karl Solo

I assure you that neither I or the Spartan Federation has any wish to say who a faction can and cannot ally with. I was simply stating an observation about the leader of a faction that seems to have only disdane for this council and its proceedings. I will be the first to admit that Spartans are not fond of endless talking, but some of you should agree that these proceedings are far better than fighting on the battle field. Unless a certain faction is indeed wanting a war. I wonder what the reaction of the Chiron Alliance would be if Colonel Santiago or Chairman Yang or even Sister Miriam were to win the election? Would the Alliance accept the results? Now to officaial business.

Sparta will join with the Lords Believers in a boycott of the so called Ecological summit. We urge that each faction think about what this is really all about. Psi warefare will prove to be far more horrific than chemical warfare ever thought about. Some like to think of it as a numbers game. Chemicals kill more, so must be more dangerous. But I say that the Psi attacks by factions will increase in the future. It is only a matter of time until we see the mass slughter of entire bases caused not from jets or rovers or choppers filled with gas, but from legions of mindworms. From the looks of things, the cult is proving a most excellent example of a dark future.

Sparta will attend the Industrial summit suggested by CEO Morgan. Cooperation on an equal footing is the key to the future.

From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Planetary Council

As always, the ambassadors of the Believers and Spartans have got it wrong.
Yes, if somebody wishes, they can learn more about Psi Warfare, but they can also learn about eg. how to better defend against wild mindworm psi attacks or how to control a fungus bloom. You have seen a fungus bloom, haven´t you? Highly probable, as both Believer and Spartan territories are badly polluted. Nasty things aren´t they, the fungus blooms? Can engulf whole bases in in almost none time.
The point of this conference is giving practical advices concerning anything related to Psi and the native lifeforms, we won´t be forcing our ideologies on anybody there. You are still welcome, if you wish to come that is.


From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Foreman Domai, the Free Drones

Greetings Foreman,

I am Cult ambassador Quzer, the formal representative of the Cult of Planet in the Planetary Council.
As you probably know, our war with the Believers has devastated our mindworm troops, and now we´re looking reinforcements. Unfortunately, our own lands do not spawn new mindworms nearly as fast as the central continent, or your territory. Your lands seem highly polluted, and together with the pollution coming from both Hive and Spartan areas, you probably have boiling soup of indigineous lifeforms on your hands there.

So, we would like to ask permission for sending small teams of scientists and psychics to capture any wild mindworms they might encounter on your territory, in other words to take care of your "pest problem", for while. To show our good intentions, every new captured mindworm will be sent straight back home, so no mindworm armies will be gathering on your territory.

Also, our mindworm capturing units can teach your forces about mindworms, but you are welcome to the ecological conference in our territory. There you´ll have a chance to learn much helpful practical information, that will surely help your not so good situation with the indigenous lifeforms.

Yours,
Ambassador Quzer

From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Liaison Aron Fleischer and Ambassador Ian Davidson-Splertrovsky

We are grateful for the permisssion to hunt and capture indigenous lifeforms on your territory.

We´ll send our teams with an Island of Deep to your western shoreline. From there they will go to the nearest bases of your two factionas and give the local officials tracking devices, from which you can monitor the position of our teams at all times.

If you could cooperate so much as to inform our teams about any new mindworm sightings, we would be very grateful. Any new captured indigenous lifeform will be sent to the one waiting Isle of Deep, on the western shore, from which it will immediately be stransported onto our territory.
Our people can take care of themselves, and I can guarantee, they are the best on Chiron in capturing indigenous lifeforms.
So, you won´t need any armies( and casualties) to fight the mindworms, we´ll take care of that problem.


From: Cult Ambassador Quzer
To: Ambassador Ian Davidson-Splertrovsky

I can understand that if you do not have expansionist goals and wish to become a large indurstrialized nation that one can become friends with the mindworms- but is that not too much work and are you not giving away your humanity by doing so?
-The University does think that you are embarking on a noble task, but why worship the flora and fauna instead of attempting to master it?

Thank you, somebody finally undestands us.
Humanity is a variable thing, and besides, why can´t the natives be included in humanity? You would be surprised how intelligent they really are. And also they are loyal and trustworthy, they remember for a long time their friends, and also their enemies. I could even say that they are more human than we are

Thats the secret with the local flora and fauna, they can never be mastered. If you try to be their master, but not their friend who provides them with the right envirenment, you will get at max. anemic half dead mindworm hatchlings, who are nothing but a waste of resources, from a practical point of view.

Captain,

I´d like to ask permission for some of our seaforces to be able cross through your territory on their way to the central continent.
