[01] - Network, Video [near the end of Energy Storm event]
Greetings.
[There's a man standing calmly, a black cape covering most of his body, staring into the camera with an expression of very open disdain.]
My name is Kylo Ren. I am the Supreme Leader of the First Order and to many of you, I suspect those words mean nothing. Don't worry. That won't last long. To those of you that do know who I am, I'm very glad to be the one to tell you personally that you've finally managed to run into a corner that you won't be escaping from.
I'll be quick about this. I've been here for some time now and in that time I've mostly done two things - The first is studying this network to learn more about my situation so that I could somehow contact my fleet to come and get me. If I had succeeded, this would have been a very different kind of message, [and been accompanied by orbital bombardment, probably] but I did learn that the phenomenon that pulled me here has also reeled in a number of criminals from my galaxy. They refer to themselves collectively as the Resistance. Whatever they've told you about themselves, they're thieves, murderers and terrorists, so I would be careful about how much time I spend with them if I were you.
The second thing I did was digging.
[He switches the camera over to a fairly respectable looking pile of supplies, mostly food and medicine. Apparently he's been busy following around those ghosts that have been popping up.]
I understand supplies can be scarce around here, so I went to the trouble of procuring some. I'm even feeling generous enough to share them, so let's make this simple.
Deliver every single member of the Resistance to me. Or the Resistance can simply surrender themselves, but I've learned to not underestimate their cowardice, so I won't be counting on that. Either way, do that and these supplies are yours.
[Somehow, this was by far the most personable version of this that he came up with.]

[He quirks an eyebrow. He's...not sure what to think about this one. He wouldn't have expected Hux to gladly welcome him to this dump, but...]
What hard work? What're you babbling about?
[Video]
I should be asking you what hard work do you actually accomplish? But that is not the subject at hand.
I've been here for quite some time and have established myself here among the people. And now you are tarnishing the name of the First Order by this nonsense. Perhaps you should have been digging around to see who was established here before making such a scene.
Now they'll be looking to me to why I'm allowing someone like you to ruin our supplies.
[Video]
[Very quickly, Ren looks like he wants to punch something. Probably Hux!]
Are you telling me you're working with the Resistance? You've betrayed the First Order!?
[Video]
Where did I even indicate that I was helping the Resistance? The people here are not the Resistance. The Resistance began to show up shortly before you arrived and I have been here longer. Things are different here then they are back at home. Our war currently has no place here.
--
This is my last chance in attempt to trying to help you, since you clearly shoved my attempts aside in the past. Listen carefully. Destroying the supplies will not help you. Nor will forcing the Resistance to come out will do anything. I repeat our war does not exist here.
Angering the Agri will only cause you trouble and they do not like violence. Your methods of handling things will only cause yourself problems not the rest of us.
My loyalty is to the First Order. You may be my Supreme Leader, but it does not mean you have earned my loyalty and respect. You know no one here that will willing help you. I suggest you think carefully of how you want to handle things.
