I see you've met Carmen, a close friend of mine. Well, you've got my attention, so lets see what we can do here.

Nick Stenn, leader of the Forlorn Hope, at your service. You've already been a mercenary, so you'll fit right in with the rest of us.

As for objectives, we currently work to keep several regions of space safe, while using the proceeds from such ventures to further our own goals, all of which are not easily discussed with outsiders. Enemies are a nice mix of criminals and Gallic Navy. We take special delight in removing alien worshippers and their kind, as well as nomads themselves. As for areas of operation, we've got contracts that have taken us pretty much everywhere there is to go.

A complicated relationship is only a partial issue, and one that I'd be willing to work around. I suppose I'd need to know if you're infected, an alien worshipper or a Gallic spy. However, surviving an encounter with Carmen leads me to believe you might be in the clear for that. So yes, I, and the Forlorn Hope are options for you to consider.

Karaoke is always a good night, and while tuna is pretty good, I prefer red meats. We'll have to find a karaoke bar to see which of us is the better singer.
