Captain Sudrossa.
It's been a rather long time since we've heard from you over this network, barring the few instances we worked together in the field over the last couple of years. What's your status? We have a situation developing that might require your assistance.
To be a bit more specific, Bretonia has decided to lock us out and have attacked our forces in cooperation with the Gaians. This has been rather problematic, as I've been in the process of assembling a sizeable force to combat a variety of mutual enemies we happen to share with The Crown. They've given us no reason as to why, and have been uncooperative in matters leading to this event. Their radical actions and behavior suggest they're being manipulated, however this is remains a supposition.
The nature of the lock-out has put strain on our security. There are threats far more concerning than skirmishes with what used to be our allies brewing in the local area, and it'd be most unfortunate if we were left with no other choice but to remove them.
In light of this, we'd like to inquire about enlisting your assistance in securing and monitoring a small sector of our territory for any insurgency attempts, and possible assistance levied in the event combat does occur. If however this is unacceptable to you, I'd be interested in negotiating other means of which we can acquire some assistance. You'll be paid accordingly of course.
Besides, when's the last time you paid us a visit?

Fret not. I too was ensnared within the hyperspatial field when the blackout occurred. How you and I survived it, beyond me. Perhaps you are even more fortunate, I was only within it for a few months, compared to your ... years. There are some side effects from it however, that of which may manifest within the future. We'll see. I'm glad you're out of limbo hell.
To catch you up to speed, Leviathan is dead, I stepped down from Keeper three... no... four? Five? Years ago. Stavros has been acting head, previously the Overseer for all Military activity.
What happened to your mighty warship? Is it still at Portsmouth? You need to get it out of there as soon as possible. The Bretonians will attempt to reclaim it. The Citadel has some space to 'put it on ice' until you get the necessary funds to restore it. We can do such, if you desire, but we will need great payment.
Ah, to catch you up with politics, long story short; Bretonia tried to subjuguate us, we successfully resisted thus far, and are at a state of conflict. Or so they want to imagine, but we've done well thus far trying to resist them moving into our homeland. They have been distracted by Dublin's takeover for now.
I do have some jobs in mind. Some menial, some are high risk missions. Some more moderately difficult. Only when you are ready to fly again.
