[QUOTE="Black Omega, post: 180123, member: 79"] Siobhan looks over, adding her own thoughts, her voice quiet, thick with emotion "Unless I've missed something they are very clear on this. If we agree, we are their subjects. There is at no point any hint given we would be released later. Things like: We are placing your Spheres under our jurisdiction. From hereforth, you are a part of our Star Empire. Therefore, we are removing your freedom. We will be blunt: you will be unfree. You will be our subjects. You will be treated as the children you are. They talk about all they will give us. Freedom is not on the menu. If we give in, that's it. We're a sub-citizen part of the Taraakian Empire. [B][/B] Thanks. We certainly feel the same. But if you might never get the chance, why wait?;) [B][/B] I hope it's been made absolutely clear that we are not siding with the Dread Alliance. They are the greatest threat and if the Militant Fair attack us, it will be while we are trying to finish off the Dread Alliance. WE will not attack the Taraakians. It is they who are saying they will attack us. If there is to be a war, they will be starting it. We would prefer peace. But if peace is just another word for surrender, then we will regretfully have to defend ourselves. I understand others in the OA might be tempted by this. We believe in freedom, our own freedom of choice and the rights of others to choice their own path. You know me. I've been in the Oerth Alliance from the very start. I've done my best to help people, friend and foe. To save those enslaved. 'He who gives up freedom in the name of security, will have neither.' We hope others in the Oerth Alliance will stand with us. But that's for you to decide." [/QUOTE]
