The Sedunnic ambassador was diverted to Imperial Naval Air colonel Hibiki Yoruichi who relayed the following message from the Imperial Frost General staff office, " Ambassador, it is regrettable that the 299th air wing did not follow Imperial protocols on identification and passage through foreign lands in times of peace. However, due to the dangerous and classified nature of the cargo it was prudent to give the 299th the necessary autonomy to safely move it to the home islands as quickly as possible, which resulted in this regrettable incident. The pilots involved will be reprimanded at a later date once the cargo is safely placed in the custody of the Cinigrad prison system."
