"Commanders, we find ourselves in critical times. As you all know, the Cyan Moonlings have annexed the area of space known to us as The Far-Middle Quadrant.

Since this area is dangerous, distant and contains nothing of interest or value to the Articulated Space Administration, the Board of Admirals unanimously signed Official Charter of Disinterest #1235, which makes the whole matter moot from a legal standpoint."

"But recent telescopic observations have confirmed our suspicions that the Moonlings have initiated some kind of large-scale industrial operation. Considering all that we know about the Cyan Moon Cluster and the beings who call it home, this activity is almost certainly hostile in nature."
