Needless to say, the success of this contract has been a high point in recent years, and the successful joint administration of the planet seems to be remarkably sustainable.
I’m certainly hoping the contract negotiation goes well, or at the very least a similarly mutually-agreeable security contractor may be identified if the Legion wishes to pivot toward more Upwell-oriented work. I’d have to say, though, that’d be a sad thing, given the mutually beneficial history between the Legion and Ishukone.
Well. So much for a relaxing weekend in the hills with my family - instead I’m going to be running a Level 0 inventory of my hangars and making sure every ship larger than a destroyer has been warmed up and shaken down by Sunday night.
On behalf of Goonswarm and the Imperium, we’d like to welcome Strike Commander Tsuni Aina back to Pure Blind, and look forward to continued positive relations with the Legion presence from our facilities in O-N8XZ and our operations centers in ROIR-Y and X-7OMU.
Once Legion has been known for a peacekeeping force, fighting crime throughout the cluster. But really nobody who follows mercenary path can stay honorable. In the end, there’s little difference between pirates and mercenaries.
And now we see how low the Legion has fallen. They have started with helping us against the Federal aggressors, but now they protect the Federal occupation on OUR homeworld. From peacekeepers to pets of occupants and aggressors.
Their “contract” involves guarding aggressors forces on the oppressed planet. They betrayed the State by allowing gallenteans to stay on our Homeworld.
As for the shame, I think I have to agree with you. After all, they are just disgusting mercenaries. They know no shame, no loyalty, no humanity, only money.
Getting real comfortable with Upwell, looks like. Essentially the conglomerate’s own PMC - a shrewd business decision if nothing else. Interesting times.
Well, they were one of the founding partners for the consortium. Upwell’s success is their success, and the reverse.
Admittedly, I’m not sure how contribution and profit-sharing operates within Upwell, but I can only imagine that the other parties are material contributors, even though we mostly see ORE as its face.
Or after however many years, they’re tired of just being military and are looking to establish and alternative career path for their officers who want to get away from bloodshed for a while.
