I didn't expect a job so soon! Thought you forwarding the message was going to take time until I got anything back from the other Maltese groups. In any case, thanks for sending out a transmission. Yes, we do offer system mapping services, as I mentioned in space. However, my vessel is not suited to perform such a task. On our station in the Kepler System, we have outfitted an "Arrow" light fighter interceptor to be a fast-cruise system mapper, with enhanced sensors and all. We'll task the pilot to begin the job once he has come back from his sabbatical. For now, as we are a newly formed group of Freelancers and Zoners, we haven't yet figured out all our logistics and pricing for system mapping. Rift Data is another thing altogether, we find that more important to get right, and that has all been figured out. So this time I am inclined to give the two systems you have asked for free of charge. If or when you request a second order, at that point we will be charging for your services. Once the systems have been mapped and information gathered, a transmission from the pilot of '\S/'Silverstone will be sent through this frequency.
I hope that our services will be appreciated, and we can have some form of beneficial partnership in the future.

If there are more systems beyond the two, that would mean potentially more business for us. Any more are definitely welcome! You're asking that you don't want to see me fly around or using my tools to gain information on Malta and it's surrounding space, that is something I can restrict myself in doing, since my main concern is gaining some clients. Speaking of sectors of space I'm unwilling to map and gain data on, anything beyond the system known as Omicron Iota. That place is very scary and unsettling, and there's something resembling a Jump Gate in the center of that system... not sure where it leads. Another area is Gallia, though I could be persuaded to do jobs inside of their space. I find their Military very overzealous and I'd like to avoid them when possible. My vessel is armed with a cloaking device, so I can covertly get data in space deemed high-risk.
My apologies with our conversation in space. I would agree that there was some miscommunication. I meet a lot of groups, and each one has their own formal way they'd like to be greeted. For me, I call pilots out by their faction's name. Won't be making that mistake again. Like we said in our previous transmission, we are offering to get this order done free of charge. Both as a show of good faith and the prospect of future partnership - and also because we simply weren't prepared to take on a job like this just yet.
Please await '\S/'Silverstone's report. He will return to his post in about a week's time.

I regret to inform you that the Iverness System is off-limits to us, in addition to Omicron Alpha, Gallia and deep into uncharted space. I cannot share the details as to why, but I will ask you if there was potentially another point of interest you would like us to map out?
If there's any degree of disappointment, I completely understand. I wish to make up for it in another way, if it suits you. I'll await a reply.

Can't say I'm surprised to hear the disappointment in your voice, though I'm relieved that your request hasn't been withdrawn. Of course, we will abide by your rules and not set our wings around Malta. I do have one question - The Outcast Hyperspace Starfleet did send me a transmission, and mentioned that you forwarded a message to them about me. I'll have to thank you for that. Means more business for me. You are not part of their faction, you are Guardia Svizzera? Just to I can keep my paperwork in check is all.
About the job, both the Coronado System and the Edinbrugh System are well within our allowed space. Halpert has given me word that he has landed somewhere in the Coronado System and will begin in a couple days time.

The order is done and the report has been compiled. Seems I've learned a few things about these systems too. Attached you'll find the invoice for our service. Worthless, though, as Leon said we aren't charging for this order. You'll find this report to be accurate, as of a few hours ago.

Superficial scan reports the Coronado System is somewhat well connected, despite the apparent vacancy. With a handful of oddball happenings.
- Tau-31, located in Sector B4
- Cortez, located in Sector C6
- Newcastle, located in Sector E5 - Watch out for the Sun's corona.
- Iverness, located in Sector E3
- Barrier Gate Stations A, B & C - VISUAL
- Location: Sector B5.
- A Freelancer installation. Seems like my kind of place. Might trade this Starflier for their Jackdaw. Trading outpost, used by people like myself to equip themselves before moving onwards.
- Battlecruiser Bastia - IMAGE CAPTURE // ERROR
- Location: Sector D7.
- Seems my imaging program failed to capture the vessel. It appears the Outcasts have a potential stake in this system. Their battlecruiser shrouded in the Barrier Rim field, a rest stop for you and your vessel.
- Planet Yuma & Sabah Shipyard - VISUAL
- Location: Sector D2.
- Crayter Republic having a planet *and* a shipyard. A target for the Outcasts. They have multiple vessels in the Shipyard's docks, ready for retaliation.
- Battlecruiser Yellowstone - IMAGE CAPTURE // ERROR
- Location: Sector D2, above Sabah Shipyard
- The Libertonian Navy... providing defensive assistance to Crayter. Keep your eyes open around this sector, patrols are somewhat frequent.
- Kwinana Starport - VISUAL
- Location: Sector F4
- A refinery and a covert smuggling layover. A station placed just outside of regular travel lines. Controlled by whoever these guys are... the Natio Octavarium.
- Report: Flew for several hours around the Coronado System. Aside from a few patrols outside the Barrier Rim, seems there's not much activity. Looks as though it's not a destination system.
- Planet Salina and it's five moons: A visually pleasing orbital layout, otherwise nothing. There's something going on around the Moons Pecos and Jericho, addressed in the "Oddities" page of my report.
- Wreck: Mantello - VISUAL
- Location: Sector A3
- To put it bluntly, I got lost in the Barrier Rim. Found a handful of wrecks and such. This is one of them.
- Wreck: Fortune Hunter - VISUAL
- Location: Sector B7
- This Rogue transport was doing something interesting here. My short-range sensors said there was an Alien Jump Gate here, but I didn't see any...
- Salina's Moon: Jericho - VISUAL
- Location: Sector F7
- An operation run by the Crayter Republic. Seems there's something on Jericho they are after. A Cruiser and Comms Antenna are established in orbit. My civilian scanning equipment cannot determine their goal here.
- Salina's Moon: Pecos - VISUAL I & VISUAL II
- Location: Sector G6
- Two Docking Rings and Mooring Fixtures on a moon... strange configuration. I believe Camp Lister is operated by the IMG, and New Hope Docking Ring is run by Crayter. Weird how it's all the way out here...
Superficial scan reports the Edinbrugh System was the center, or a big part of a war, with little leftover to discover.
- Dublin, located in Sector C5
- Orkney, located in Sector E2
- Roussillon, located in Sector C2
- Tau-31, located in Sector F3
- Leeds, located in Sector F5
- Perth Station - VISUAL
- Location: Sector E5
- Despite the great battle that happened here, it seems Bretonia still wants to keep an eye out here. So far from home...
- Islay Base - VISUAL
- Location: Sector F3
- Gaians... have not met a Gaian before. Did they come from the Planet of the same name? I don't know the history. Anyways, they have a base in the system.
- Providence Station - VISUAL
- Location: Sector B2
- A pirate installation. Lawless as all the rest. Was only on board for about 15 minutes before someone threatened my life, so I left.
- Report: Everything is dead here. There's a massive graveyard spanning sectors G5 to F4. If someone showed up with a strike force, they could probably take the system.
- Planet Gaia - VISUAL
- A Freelancer... planet? What? From orbit it looks like an Orbital Spa & Cruise resort!
- Wreck: Hurricane - VISUAL
- Location: Sector A3
- I recognize ugly Bretonian ships when I see one. This pilot was a casualty from the war.
- War Graveyard - VISUAL
- Location: Sector G5 to F4
- I paid a moment of silence to all the lives lost here. Gallics and Bretonians... damn...
