'''Fergus Cassidy''' is the CEO of the Reorte Mining Coalition in [[Reorte]]. When the [[Alliance]] invited [[Sirius Corporation]] to deploy the megaship Chariot of Rhea in Reorte in January 3308 as part of the defence pact between the superpower and the megacorporation, Cassidy considered the action illegal since his faction, which ruled Reorte at the time, had not been consulted and the invitation had been extended by [[Alliance Prime Minister|Prime Minister]] [[Edmund Mahon]] without seeking the approval of the [[Alliance Assembly]]. Cassidy placed the Chariot of Rhea under a blockade and demanded that it leave. When the megaship refused to budge, he ordered his forces to attack, instigating a series of skirmishes across Reorte.

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>The Reorte Mining Coalition has succeeded in forcing [[Sirius Corporation]] to withdraw from the [[Reorte]] system. Despite the megacorp's strategic defence pact with the [[Alliance]], Reorte's controlling faction claimed the Sirius megaship Chariot of Rhea was an illegal intruder. This resulted in open conflict, which has ended with Sirius Corporation's defeat. Fergus Cassidy, CEO of the Reorte Mining Coalition, transmitted this message: "With the support of many brave pilots, we have prevented Sirius from sinking its claws into the Reorte system. I hope our victory will convince the Alliance's leaders to think twice about their deal with the devil." Captain [[Delfina Dominguez]] has confirmed that Sirius Corporation has started to withdraw from Reorte. The megaship Chariot of Rhea will leave Reorte and jump to the [[Leesti]] system pending further discussions with Allied leaders. Sources have confirmed that [[permits]] to the [[Alioth]] and [[Sirius]] systems have been allocated to independent pilots depending on the faction they supported during the conflict. The [[Alliance Assembly|Assembly]] has held emergency meetings to debate this turn of events. [[Councillor]] [[Ainsley Niven]], who represents the Reorte system, delivered a warning to [[Edmund Mahon|Prime Minister Mahon]]: "You have invited Sirius Corporation to provide military aid against the [[Thargoid]]s, but without seeking the approval of those we are pledged to protect. That is not the way of the Alliance, no matter how grave the threat."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61fba223321af45edf642e6f GalNet: Sirius Corporation Ejected from Reorte]</ref>

*<nowiki>*</nowiki>Pilots' Federation ALERT*<br/>The Reorte Mining Coalition has declared its intent to remove the [[Sirius Corporation]] presence from its home system. The megaship Chariot of Rhea arrived in [[Reorte]] as part of Sirius Corporation's new role as the [[Alliance]]'s strategic defence partner. But the system's controlling faction ordered it to withdraw. The megaship's non-compliance has resulted in skirmishes targeting Sirius forces. Fergus Cassidy, CEO of the Reorte Mining Coalition, announced: "We fully support [[Nakato Kaine|Councillor Kaine's]] position that Sirius Corporation is operating illegally under Alliance law. Therefore, we will defend our territory from this aggressive foreign entity." A response was broadcast by Captain [[Delfina Dominguez]] of the [[Sirius Navy]], who commands the Chariot of Rhea: "Our presence is authorised by the military contract between Sirius Corporation and the [[Alliance Defence Force]]. If local forces continue to attack, we will have no option but to defend our assets." The fighting is not believed to have reached surface level and is expected to remain a ship-based conflict. To rally support from independent pilots, both factions are offering access to [[Permits|permit-locked]] systems. Reorte Mining Coalition will sponsor distribution of an [[Alioth]] system permit, while Sirius Corporation will authorise a permit to the [[Sirius]] system. [[Alliance Prime Minister|Prime Minister]] [[Edmund Mahon]] has ordered the Reorte Mining Coalition to cease hostilities immediately. However, [[Councillor]] [[Ainsley Niven]] – who represents Reorte in the [[Alliance Assembly|Assembly]] and is a political supporter of Nakato Kaine – claims that the faction has the right to protect its territory, since it was not invited to ratify the defence pact.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61f29a5421fc420cc60d1cde GalNet: Conflict Erupts in the Reorte System]</ref>
