SENDER: Sister Aiko Saito SUBJECT: Formal Establishment of Relations and Trade Contracts
*A young woman's face flickers in to view. After nodding towards someone behind the camera, she takes a deep breath proceeds with her message, frequently looking down at what appears to be a script.*
Haikei Ministers,
For the past three weeks, Kusari has seen a reignition of Golden Chrysanthemum activities. For some time, it was thought the struggle for women's rights was won; a new government with new ideas had given us hope for real, tangible change. However, the Republicans that promised us so much have delivered on so little, falling short both of their promises and our expectations. Their attempts at appeasement have failed, and we'll be sure they never forget it.
In the past, your house has been kind enough to display open support for our cause. As the Sisterhood rebuilds itself once again, we reach out to you in the hopes of reviving this former relationship. With as many common enemies and goals as we share, working together can only bring enormous benefits to us both.
Trade is the lifeblood of the universe we live in. As such, an exchange of the resources each of us need is only sensible. Attached you will find a manifest of goods that our haulers can reasonably obtain. For now, H-Fuel will be our primary export, to be delivered to Graves Station in Dublin. But, ask from this list and you will receive.
