To: RPA || From: Phoenix

[Soban]

Greetings, Esteemed Members of the RPA and Rightful Custodians of Dublin,

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Jonathan Cayran, a representative of the Phoenix Organization, a Zoner faction operating in the far Omicron regions. While our groups may not have had the opportunity to collaborate in the past, we share common principles: a steadfast commitment to independence and a shared disdain for the Corsairs' encroachments.

Today, I write to you on behalf of our research team with a request for exceptional access to the gold mining fields of Dublin. Our aim is to extract ore from one or two asteroids for scientific purposes. We can deploy a Hegemon-class mining vessel to carry out the operation or, if you prefer, we would be honored to enlist the aid of one of your skilled miners to crack the asteroids open for us.

You may wonder about the purpose of this endeavor. Simply put, we seek pristine asteroid samples to further our studies into the ancient history of Sirius. These celestial bodies have witnessed millennia, and their composition may hold invaluable insights into the past.

Please let us know what compensation you would consider appropriate for granting access and assisting with this undertaking. As a gesture of goodwill, we are prepared to support your efforts by providing iridium, a resource we understand may be of value to you.

Should you express interest in this initiative, I would be delighted to provide additional details regarding the planned operation.

I look forward to your response and hope this venture marks the beginning of a mutually beneficial relationship.


With resolve and determination,

Jonathan Cayran, out.
