To the Rheinland Federal Police, RM, BDM

[Jayce]

A member or group of members of the Republican Shipping Corporation has managed to steal one of our highly-prized Golem-class vessels. In addition, they have been utilizing this vessel for "jump-trading," specifically to the deep Omicrons. Despite our best efforts, they have refused to return the vessel to Dortmund Smelter. This will not do. Abfalllogistikgesellschaft requires the full might of the Federal Police in order to arrange the return of our stolen vessel. In addition, ALG Waste Disposal would like to press charges to the fullest extent of the law, not only against the individuals responsible for this crime, but against Republican Shipping itself. For far too long, RS| has brought shame upon the Rheinland corporate family: breaking laws, disobeying direct orders from the Military, jumping to the deep Omicrons and returning with goods possible dangerous to the Republic... It must stop!

I have included the Buro in this transmission for two simple reasons. First: the technology incorporated into the HWDU series is massively advanced, and should that technology fall into the hands of pirates, or worse, it would be a disaster. Second: with Republican Shipping jumping to the deep Omicrons to retrieve possibly hazardous cargo, possibly endangering our glorious Federal Republic, action may be taken against ALG if one of our vessels is implicated in a future incident. Despite the Golem's aptitude at carrying particularly hazardous, valuable cargo, it is not enough to contain the dangers found in the far-reaches of Sirius... Our vessel must be returned to us as soon as possible.

We hope you will respond swiftly.
