Good Grief! Korrie. What are your people thinking? Everyone in the alliance is clamoring for war. Your exiled exiles are trying to sign up in huge numbers but military quotas have been met this year and they are being turned away and now they are rioting in the streets 'cause they can't sign up to go kill their relatives. You really put me in a tough position old boy I can't even get in to see the president my father to try and present your view on this whole thing. Oh and you did wipe out 3 civilian colonies along with 2 military post but our press is lumping it all together as civilian casualties and there have been some anti-Kor activity around your Churches.
Oh by the way the "attack" fleet you asked about really was an exploratory fleet sent to the southwest quadrant to look at some unmapped systems we knew nothing about. It turns out that it belongs to the Negation. Once we understood that we pulled them back and then the idiots severed relations with us. We complied with their demands and then they pulled the plug on our treaty. Makes no sense to us (if you could pass along your take on them we would appreciate it). Thanks for the keg of Korban brandy it really was a hit here. I even had an offer from one of my merchant friends to cut me in on an import license let me know if you want in on the deal as I think it can make a tidy sum for both of us.
Trisha says to tell you and yours hello.

PS The word about the Priintlot system planets is not encouraging the debate is centering on the actual wording of the agreement. Things don't look well in handing them over. There is a firm decision about that colony ship we intend to leave it alone for now but that could change.
