Estimado señores, given the current state of Maltese politics, I understand that parties on all sides need particular assurances of certain things. While the Lance looks to its allies for military support, Malta also values its economic relations throughout the sector.
Our distribution network within Liberty and under the supervision of the Liberty Rogues is the crown jewel of Malta’s current reach into house space. I am more than pleased to report that despite frequent attempts by the Ghosts or its mercenaries to disrupt the Lance’s supply lines, the flow of Orange into Liberty is healthier and more substantial than it has been in many years. The Lance prides itself on the purity and quality of its products, and please be assured, the shipments will continue regardless of the treasonous Ghosts’ efforts to sabotage Rogue and Maltese economic interests.
I hope this transmission brings good tidings, and if the Lance can be of any service, simply ask and it will be done.

Hola Mansel Alcantra,
It is a pleasure to hear from the Lance. I thankyou for those kind words, it is always pleasing to
hear from associates that are satisfied with our work. As I'm sure you can imagine we are very keen to
maintain and expand upon the current opportunities to sell more Cardamine to the Liberty populace and
beyond. Despite these somewhat uncertain times we will continue doing as we are and in fact the
next convoy should be arriving to pick up more goods within a day or so.
Indeed the Ghosts have been somewhat problematic as of late. While we had good relations in the
past, they seem to have little interest in continuing with that, I'll have to wait and see how diplomatic
relations progress. However we are no in debt to them but to Malta itself, as long as Cardamine
continues to flow, we'll gladly pay root for our suppliers.
The only thing I ask is for an update on current Maltese politics and how this could affect the Rogues.
Rumours of the conflict have reached my ears and I need assurances that the outcome won't disrupt
our business operations.
Ah, Señor James, what a distinct honor to receive a reply directly from you.
I am sure the current state of Malta’s political affairs is somewhat disheartening. The Ghosts seem to be more concerned with cementing their hold in Omicron 85 than with the business of the Nación, but I can assure you, the Lance is always concerned with the well-being of Malta and her allies over all. As the Ghosts look internally without conviction, murder fellow Maltese with nothing but hate for their allegiances, and attempt to throw the Nación over the brink for their own purposes, the Lance will continue to stand by its allies and assist with their endeavors however possible.
The Ghosts broadcast to others merely for their weapons. The Lance broadcasts to others out of respect and mutual admiration.
That being said, I hope the Liberty Rogues will continue to consider Malta and those who seek her glory their brothers. Cardamine will continue to flow into Liberty, and so long as that torrent is headed by the Lance’s requisitioning flagship, the Esperanza, we are more than happy to take care of any supplies you may need.
A further matter brought to my attention by a close associate involves your bounty operations within Liberty. I wanted to ask whether those continue to be successful, whether the Rogues face increasing military resistance, and if the Lance may be able to help – both militarily and financially. Of course, rumors are rumors, and the longevity and strength of the Rogues is of our foremost concern.

Mansel Alcantra
It is a pleasure to conduct business with our Maltese partners, I consider our relations of the
utmost importance so you'll be hearing from me myself as much as I have the time for.
Indeed I am inclined to agree with you on the matter of the Ghosts. From what I've seen of late, they
appear to have little interest in maintaining ties with the Liberty Rogues. With out current foothold in
the underground cardamine supply and distribution networks across Liberty, I think that an ill
advised position of theirs. Perhaps it'll change. I am glad that we can still rely on the Lance for our
current needs and I hope the strife in your glorious nation reaches a conclusion before too much
damage is inflicted.
In regards to the threats we face here, things are uncertain. With Galic expansion reaching ever closer,
a few of my more observant men have reported changes in the Liberty navies regular patrols and
military movements here. For now I will be observing closely the routines of the security forces nearby.
With us re-opening our bounty board, once again we can use various mercenary groups to harass and
distract our enemies. As of now I am confident in the operations success.
