To Malkonkordo,

Perhaps I was unclear. I acknowledge that you are justified in seeking war with
the Starbloom. However, I am simply stating that a war over something as petty
as a misunderstanding would be deeply misunderstood. I have not heard much of
the Dekaoso, but you seem to be very honorbound, which is more than I can say
of most of the others I've met or read of.

I must ask for a clarification of what you mean regarding the
anarcho-communists of Hoffnung. They are not brave or honorable. Killing the
guards in battle would be preferable, however they have taken it upon
themselves to kill the guards in a way that brings no risk to themselves. With
no risk to themselves. I fail to see they are honorable in any way.

If you still wish to do battle with us (which I would not recommend), you won't
find us in Sol. We have flung ourselves far from its reach in an attempt to
find a planet that could possibly support habitable life given our lack of data
due to the circumstances in which we left Terra.

(I'm still not happy you assume everybody else's maps are inferior. While ours
most certainly are, we were rushed in our departure from our planet Terra,
which we hold dear.)
