Whoever this concerns.

The installation in question was long thought to be abandoned but now appears to be showing signs of life. Identify yourselves and state your intent immediately.

If you refuse to respond within 24 hours we will destroy the installation.

You have been warned.

Bristol Constructions and all its subsidiary cooperatives are listed as cooperative elements.

There are therefore no demands we would make of you. It is however requested that you maintain a closed door policy to ships hailing from the Technocracy or elements aligning themselves with the "Commonwealth". Should these elements try to "persuade" you to do otherwise then please report this to us and we will accordingly dispatch a force to adequately deter their ambitions.

I am additionally advised to inform you that certain local elements viewed favorably by the Xeno Alliance would take offense at any overt attempts to recover salvage from the system-wide graveyard. Confine your operations to the base as far as possible and avoid widespread salvage reclamation.

I'll answer in sequence.

Technocrats in this situation would include members of a despotic band of raiders. A number of former, highly zealous supporters of the fascist regime that ruled over Vespucci prior to the formation of the Commonwealth have deluded themselves into a crusade to see the Commonwealth restored. Therefore, it would be prudent to lock their deranged and drooling propaganda parties out.

My point regarding the Commonwealth should be explained by the above.

Wreckage in the system is subject to an already standing agreement between the Xeno Alliance and the Atacama Cohort. The Cohort are a group of former Legionnaires who abandoned the cause during the Commonwealth's brief regime. Disgruntled by its descent into corporatism and elitism. They are an ally in our efforts to keep any warlords who might seek to inherit either Veracruz, or its tools of oppression at bay. Given that their presence in the system predates yours, and your arrival occurred without prior notice, the Alliance is inclined to give the Cohort preference in this matter. Such is the nature of equity. We ask that you respect their claim over the graveyard so as to not cause any misunderstandings between the Alliance and its other partners.

The Freeport is currently part of an ongoing investigation and its status will be determined by whether or not it chooses to abide by the terms we have offered it. In the event that the Freeport administration refuses the terms they have been offered then we will move to destroy the installation.
