Plausible Deniability
Conducting any form of attacks on rival ships in peacetime, whether through sanctioning reprisals or private wars or covertly backing piracy, has had many benefits to us, but is not without problems. One of our privateering operations was recently compromised and the ships and crew captured. As luck would have it, they had lost their letter of marque, proving they work with our approval, and whatever proof connects them to us is purely circumstantial.
As a last resort, the captain has now contacted us, hoping we will admit to our official backing so it can be used as leverage in the upcoming trial.
