more than we are prepared to accept. Action must be taken now. If you
cannot deal with the situation, we will act on our own to protect our
people and borders.]<<<<<

>>>>>[He's struck again, Tairngire border, crossing points and
immgration offices, two car bombs, two set devices. The Tir have locked
the border down, nothing goes in or out. 23 dead, some of them
tourists. He blew the crap out of the sec office, killing 7 officers
and wiping immigration off the map. Two more bombs exploded on the NAN
border, near the Snohomish crossover point. Nobody was killed, but
several officials were injured by flying glass.
Where the hell is Thunda getting his damned supplies from? The
explosives set over New year should've burned the last of his
suppliesCar registrations check ouyt with Lone Star, they recent
vehicles were reported stolen 48 hours ago. Tir are demanding
information, and some sort of action. Though what they're asking for is
impossible. No way will Congress agree. Information from our
watchpoints on the Tir border indicate that a team of Ghosts has crossed
into Seattle.
Now we have not only private hunting, government and corporate interest,
but the Tir has crossed the borders with a strike team. We have a very
nasty international incident growing here. If the Ghosts are noticed,
or get too public, we've got a real problem. Suggestions?]<<<<<

>>>>>[We are aware of the Ghost team within city limits. This is not a
good idea, you are doing precisely what Thunda wants. There is no
agreement with Seattle City Government or UCAS Federal Government to
allow the movement of such forces within UCAS or Seattle terroritories.
If they make a mistake, especially with all the corporate interests
involved in the present situation. I must ask that you withdraw your
forces back across the border. The last we need on top of this chaos is
an international incident between the UCAS and Tir Tairngire. We are on
top of the situation and the net is closing around Thunda.]<<<<<

>>>>>[We have no such forces within Seattle city boundries, though we do
have essential security on the border. No Ghost team is present in
Seattle, all members are accounted for within Tairngire borders and
operational activities are confirmed. Anyone that has crossed the
border and is within city limits is not following Tir Tairngire sanction
and is therefore not our responsibility. We have trouble controlling
some people just as you do. It is possible that a few citizens chose to
cross the border for whatever reason, or maybe it is Thunda's team
crossing back into Seattle. They are not our people, and we deny all
knowledge of their presence. We have closed the borders of Tairngire
for an undefined period of time, any unauthorised crossings from the
Seattle area will be considered as a territorial infraction and met with
deadly force. I said before and will repeat. If you people can't deal
with this racist terrorist, then we will take actions ourselves to
protect our people, including moving troops or logistical support into
Tarislar and the surrounding Puyallup regions. We have made offers of
support and protection to the elders, and they are considering it.
Ruling Council in Seattle has agreed that we may facilitate a limited
security zone within Seattle's metahuman enclaves to protect the
citizens. Make no mistakes D'Arkan, we will not tolerate the continued
attacks on our race by this creature. If you can't stop him. We
will.]<<<<<

>>>>>[We have a situation. Tairngire agents have moved across the
border, they are threatening limited security logistics within city
limits. We need liaison down here, and we need it soon. I am not
equipped to deal with these people on any level, and may worsen the
situation.]<<<<<

>>>>>[Liaison from DOTI is en-route. They should arrive within 4 hours.
Let them have free reign on the negotiations. They've dealt with the
Tir before, and should be able to bring this down to a sensible level.
Ten agents are coming with them. Introduce them to your team and put
them to work. You'll have two mages travelling in tomorrow, if you still
have some fresh blood to hand, or something that Thunda or his people
have recently handled, they may be able to track him with ritual, or at
least hit him hard.
I have been authorised to offer you the permanent position of Commander
in Seattle, you are more familiar with Achilles than any replacements we
can bring on line in a short period of time. With this offer comes a
temporary field promotion to Captain. If all goes well, we'll be able
to confirm the promotion. I suggest you accept Chris, I know you won't
like stepping into warm shoes, but you're the best for the job.
Thunda has provided us with an excellent opportunity to increase
divisional strength within Seattle, and the recent theft from secure
areas of Lone Star Security, has raised questions in the house. With
luck, we can increase to full office personnel instead of field office
strength. It would be good to have 50 plus agents in Seattle.]<<<<<
