My name is Emerson Bradshaw and I am honoured to introduce the Frumentarii to the Sirius Coalition Revolutionary Army.

The order I represent has been a part of our history for generations, their ideals and power being passed down the ages, the reason you've never heard of them before is simply because they did not want to be found. In its history, the Frumentarii have supported decisions of the Guildmastery, they have swayed their decisions or have gone against it to achieve their goals.

Only the highest members of the Independent Miners Guild have knowledge about their existence and if you were to request specifics I’m sure you would be denied. But worry not, we are not your enemy here, on the contrary, the Frumentarii used their influence to sway the vote in favor of supporting the terraforming of Planet Estergebirge, we also used our assets to help fund the provisions needed for such a project.

However the time has come to take action once again, as a new threat has arisen. The Frumentarii are forging an alliance against the Gallic invaders using the far-reaching diplomatic connections of the Independent Miners Guild to approach and integrate many who have been fighting the Gallics on their own or with just there closest allies.

If we could bring our two great factions together and work as a united front we would soon quash the Gallic ships, we have agents positioned in various locations across Gallic space ready to be utilized however you need, with coordinated efforts together we could strike a deadly blow.

We strive for an insurgency across the Tau systems and if we could coordinate with the Bretonian defence efforts by pooling our resources, we could finally begin to push back the Gallic tyranny. Currently there is a liberation movement that strains Gallia's resources with our combined efforts we could force them into retreat and that will eventually see their grip on Sirius crumble.

I understand that you may not trust me, right now we are intangible ghosts. But you have my word if we form an alliance, if we bring our forces together and work in tandem the Gallics will have no choice but to renegotiate their current position in Sirius space, we are at the forefront of history and I believe we step forward together.

Thank you for getting back to us and we must apologise for any delays in our transmissions, due to the nature of this we must always remain vigilant. I'm glad that we see eye to eye on the matter at hand here, the Gaul forces have run amok around Sirius without any faction stepping in and putting an end to their strangle hold on the out lying sectors and with your forces I believe this is a goal we can finally achieve, we too wish to return the Tau systems back to people.

We are truly honoured by your extended invitation and I personally am happy to attend such a meeting as I believe it will be beneficial to both of us and I hope that we can become allies clearing up any Unknowns between our two factions, if you have any date and time in mind please let me know. We are also currently in talks with other potential allies so I believe our first port of call should be to establish a neutral platform on which we can all meet, we are currently requesting sanctuary for a headquarters on a Crayter asset in one of the Taus, if we get the green light would it be possible for you to send two representatives providing we are able to make the appropriate arrangements once we have a location.

Though you must understand we cannot be seen at any Independent miners guild base, the risk is too high and right now they need to keep up appearances, I was even present when a Gallic Naval ship took command of an IMG battlecruiser using it to rout out pirate weapons platforms, while yes clearing out pirates may be a good thing, but who do the Gauls think they are ordering around one of our Captains...

Though I digress, the main issue at hand right now establishing a base of operations, if you have any in mind please let me know as I can put it forward to a vote within the Frumentarii. I hope to hear from you soon, it will be a pleasure to work with you in the near future.
