Not now." - Oz <br> ### Description ![[Message to Blasco.wav]] \[recovered audio from private transmission between [[Loyiso "Oz" Okusanya|Oz]] and [[Camila Blasco]], February 2049. Audio file leaked by unknown source.] OZ: I appreciate the candor of your latest message, Blasco - I agree, it is perhaps too soon to back the European project when we know so little of its political interests, and whether they align with our own. Please know it was not an easy decision to make. It seems none are these days. This was a favor to the U.S. Yes, our former adversary, I know how it sounds, but they've offered weapon supplies for our forces... and to recognize [[Namaqualand]], diplomatically. The threat the [[Thousand Petals Coalition|TPC]] poses now... We must make hard choices. Our home is under threat, Camila. I won't let it fall. Not now.
