Greetings, I'm Gerudah, part of a wing under the authorized Marlinist militia, Dark Wolf Marlinists
I hope you are not a security sent by Close Encounters Corps to search my office for any evidence to arrest and/or execute me but if you aren't then....
I am currently typing this at Stillman Hub, Concordia inside my office one day before Close Encounters Corps took over Concordia and Stillman Hub through an election. For years the Marlinists has fought against oppression under the Empire. When they were given freedom by Sirius, the people rejoiced and a lot of independent pilots supported it. When the Marlinists colonies were established, they were fighting against a threat to them and everyone else, the NMLA. For so long they fought against the radicals who wanted to take back Achenar and even faced a civil war just to retain their freedom.
We were free. Until something happened.
The Marlinists were fighting against a mostly inactive faction. Easy, we'll just direct most of our forces there. But something's not right, why aren't we winning? That's when one of our members noticed something, there are a few of our enemy's carriers parked in the system. This is when the war started. We were fighting against a small squadron until a larger faction decided why not take control of our de facto capital system. Of course we wouldn't want to just give it to them right away so we continue to fight until of course, a larger faction decided to help our enemy in taking control of Concordia and fighting against us in the frontlines. Their peace terms for the Marlinists are basically "I will oppress you, you will obey me. If you do not comply, death it will be" or something like that.
We can't accept that, we don't want to be oppressed again.
I had to keep the message short as I need to evacuate Stillman Hub as soon as possible before CEC takes over Concordia. I am currently hostile with them and there's a possibility they might come after me in my office. If you are someone who somehow noticed my office and downloaded this message, pass on my message and help retake Concordia from CEC. If you are a CEC agent looking at my office, just know that I'm out there. And finally, to my squadmates and supporters of Marlinists, do not let the fall of Concordia be a reason to give up our resistance.
I hope I still have enough time to flee Stillma-
