Don't mind that trailing trojan producing anomalous amounts of heat, we assure you that there aren't aliens observing our every move from their kilometer long battleship.
Now, now, The Empire would never station a major naval asset in an independent system on the borders of our empire for military reasons! It would violate the spirit of our treaty’s. That LV and its escorting fleet is commanded by an admiral with a scholarly interest in the locals, given the services rendered by our admiral, I felt it would be a nice vacation from line of battle duty on the other frontiers of the empire. I would never willingly break up the brilliant command team, so the rest of the fleet just had to stay with the admiral. This is in no way the precursor to any kind of military action starting on our part, it would require a strong sense of paranoia to conceive of such a notion.
