Greetings.
Today I encountered Interspace Renzu Liner in New Tokyo which was carrying <ITS> tag. Of course I was interested about this new faction, so I asked the ship take course to quiet part of the system for interrogation.
I will let the logs speak for them self.

Trigger: Alright, I see you are carrying Interspace transponder, what is your reputation with them?
<ITS>Monsun: it is very high, as you can see at my IFF.
Trigger: I meant how close your faction is with them.
Trigger: How much do you fly with them?
<ITS>Monsun: Fly with them?
<ITS>Monsun: Sometimes we meet one in space.
Trigger: Co-operations and that sort of stuff?
<ITS>Monsun: No, no cooperations.
Trigger: So you don't have regular operations with them?
Trigger: Okay.
<ITS>Monsun: Not with the IC.
<ITS>Monsun: We just have their ID.

<ITS>Monsun: By now, Liberty, Kusari, Taus.
<ITS>Monsun: Sometimes Bretonia.
Trigger: What kind of cargo you usually haul? High-risk cargo or more regular stuff?

<ITS>Monsun: No unlawful!
<ITS>Monsun: Ore? If we can receive them.
Trigger: So what are your most commonly hauled items?
<ITS>Monsun: Helium, Helium-3, Premium Scrap, Niobium Ore, are always good runs.
<ITS>Monsun: But hull panels and superconductors are necessary too.
Trigger: That seems to be quite high-risk stuff mostly.
Trigger: Alright, that's all.
Trigger: Now I ask you for 5 million contribution towards The Lane Hackers.
Trigger: Because you surely don't want to loose that cargo.
<ITS>Monsun: Okay.

Trigger: To me please.
