“Komban-wa, Jinjiro MacLeod-san.”br>
“Komban-wa, Khan Lilly McEvedy-sama.”br>
“Your crops seem to be doing well.”br>
“Thanks to your assistance.  Our struggle to survive has been made much easier by your relief, we owe you a debt we cannot repay.”
“The debt is ours.” Lilly answered.  “We have parted ways, but the Clans are still our people, we bear the shame of their actions.”
“No,” MacLeod replied.  “you do not.”
“My Khan!” Galaxy Commander Robina MacLeish Jung-Ja interrupted, running up. “JumpShips in-system, they’ve launched DropShips which are burning for Turtle Bay!”
“Comms?” Lilly asked.
“None as yet,” Robina replied, following as Lilly marched into the Great Hope.  Upon reaching the bridge, she found that communications had just been established.
“This is Colonel Tikov Recardni of the Star League Defense Force.  With what forces shall you defend the world of Turtle Bay?”
Lilly smiled, having heard news of this “Second Star League” and their intent to drive off the Clans once and for all.  “This is saKhan Lilly McEvedy Walter of Clan Wolverine, and we decline to contest the Star League claim on this planet.  You may begin landing your forces at your discretion.”
Exiting the Great Hope, Lilly found Jinjiro MacLeod once more.  “It appears,” she said with a smile, “our work here is finally done.  Your liberation is incoming.”
Jinjiro bowed.  “Arigato, Khan Lilly McEvedy-sama.  Know that Clan Wolverine shall always be welcome on Turtle Bay.”
