That's an interesting message I just received. While I think my ship could provide you now and then images and scans of nomad ships, I'd really like to know for what reason you collect those. You know, maybe we could help each other here, as I am very interested in researching the nomads and their behavior.
So, could you give me some information about what you think you are going to achieve with this?

Ello, lad,
interestin' offer I hafta say, but there's that one lil' problem. I don't 'now ye. And if th' last few weeks tought me somethin', it's tha' Sirius is dark and dangerous place. While I'd be glad to werk with ye, I just can't. Not untill I 'now more 'bout ye. Though the offer stands. I'll pay for any confirmed sigtin' of nomads.
I see. How impolite, I forgot to introduce myself.
My name is Ezrael Vertiga, a, well, more or less actually a freelancer. I spent much time in the Omicrons, as I said, studying the nomad behavior. You probably know that it's possible to communicate with them. At least with some of them, the more unique ones. I'm very interested in talking to them, as there are many things we can learn about them that way. They are more individual than one might thinks. For example the one called Ish'tar. The lesser nomads say it is highly intelligent and is not out there to seek trouble, while others call it petulant. I fought Ish'tar once in a massive battle in the Omicrons and saw the potential of that entity, however, I also encountered Ish'tar some days ago in the Cortez system, damn close to Curacao, in company of the Lightseeker, an Oracle ship that was destroyed by Auxesia some days after that incident.
If you wish, I could tell you more during a meeting in Omega-49. Interested?
From: Pvt. Jimmy O'Brian To: Ezrael Vertiga Subject: Re:Nomads Encryption: Extreme
O - 49 eh? Nice place you picked, 'tis true. A'ight, you got me interested. And ya, I 'now 'bout them speaking. Tha' thin' ye doin' seems to me like playin' wit' fire, but hey, ti's yer neck yer stickin' out. How 'bout we meet on Grand Canaria?
But it's better to not meet on the planet. Space is better, as we can hide us for the time being in the Barrier clouds. I'll be on my ship, the Apahanta. I'm pretty sure you will know what it is once you see it.
From: Pvt. Jimmy O'Brian To: Ezrael Vertiga Subject: Re:Nomads Encryption: Extreme
Hmm. Fine, space it is then. I hope ye won't mind if I take one friend with me. He 'knows 'bout the thing and I'll be straight with ye, I'm still a litte suspicious 'bout this.
Take as many friends with you as you feel comfortable with, I don't mind it. However, do me a favor and don't tell only the people that you trust about it. I don't want to draw more attention then needed.

'Ello there. I believe I promised ye a certain names, aye? Sorry it took so long, I had to dig through quite a lot of logs, but I found them. D9|Vampire and D9|Wyvern. These two capital ships we encountered in Coronado system, when we were prepairing for the trip. They were not hostile towards us and acted like... well ordinary Gov forces, but their transponders were... weird. One of us, who managed to get a scan on them, said it looked like on the bridge, there were two beings, in where there should be one. I can't tell you if these two were in Iota, my ship was damaged pretty badly and logs are.. incomplete and chaotical, however I can confirm that there was D9|Horned in there, firing at us.
I hope this information will be usefull to ye. See ya.
