You are completely incorrect.

The Amarr/Matari warzone has never fallen to either side.

No side (Amarr/Caldari - Gallente/Matari) has held the field at once, you know, the actual objective.

Stop thinking that one front's collapse means the end of everything, or that it even should.

...since when did the Empire give a damn about the Caldari warzone, so long as the State remained intact to balance the Federation? We're allies of convenience at best. Same applies on the opposite side. Recent events show quite how unstable relations are between the Federation and the Republic, and although the State and Empire have not been put to the test in the same fashion, we're not exactly the best of friends.

I'll choose to believe you until we get definite confirmation one way or the other, though. Since the alternative is for a man of your wisdom and experience to be world-shatteringly naive.

It's true. We see very few to no Empire pilots in the Caldari warzone. Meanwhile our own deployment to fulfil treaty obligations was so remarkable that it caused quite some uproar.

There never has been much of a spirit of cooperation.

For the first time since I started the conversation, he looks me dead in the eye. In his gaze are steel jackhammers, quiet vengeance, a hundred thousand orbital bombs frozen in still life.
