We were made aware recently that one of our colleagues, Eva Rodriguez, was arrested by the Xeno Alliance over suspicion of being a saboteur, which is unsurprising given the current state of affairs.
Callname CRICKET, we previously tried to get in touch with Fort Ramsey directly but the Steel Circle brushed our request directly towards the Alliance. We're currently standing by on Ames onboard an Albatross-class hauling two thousand crates of cardamine, ready to make an exchange for our friend.
We will await your permission and head to Ouray or whichever drop point your team deems acceptable by opsec. We don't want any further incidents and we want to get her and that transport back as soon as possible so we can keep delivering supplies.
We will mobilize once we get confirmation that your crew is ready for our visit.

You're correct, your associate is in my custody.
And while I don't appreciate you putting me in a bind dealing with extra work at a time like this, Fontana is clear to receive delivery and then handle redistribution as needed.
Your Dunlin and associate will be shipped up to Fontana once delivery is secured, naturally your drives, blackbox, and all other forms of storing data regarding Ramsey's location and our capabilities will be wiped from the record.
But if there are any tricks then please be rest assured that I will kill Miss Rodriguez.
Ackownledged, we will depart Ames in a couple of minutes and head towards Fontana. As for the records regarding Fort Ramsey I am sure that your team has already taken any measures to wipe the records from the Dunlin by now, and you won't have to worry about ours as we have no clue where Ramsey is, we'll gladly keep it that way for everyone's sake.
One small and humble request is that, if possible and if she asks, I'd be very grateful if your people didn't mention that we delivered cardamine in exchange, I'd rather she believes it's the usual supplies, guns, fuel and that sort of thing... She's very opinionated about drugs.
We bring good news, shipment delivered, I assume your team is already aware by now, we hope this is enough proof to commitment to release Eva and her ship unscathed, I'm sure she's eager to keep moving goods for several groups we're sympathetic with, including yours, far away from Fort Ramsey, though, I'm sure she got the motto by now.
Also we've heard the news, congratulations for repelling the LSF from Ontario, I'm sure the morale is by the ceiling now.
