first i want to say how much i appreciated this nice, little discussion at FP11 in Delta with one of Your pilots, the White Wolf. But as a Zoner i am sure a freeport is a friendly, peaceful location where normally hostile people should have a chance to solve things by discussing. This is, what we always do and expect from our guests also.
And now to something complete different:
i kindly want to ask for permission to visit Cayman. As You know, i was there often without asking, making holidays in and delivering goods into one of the most beautiful systems in Sirus - not the nice way to do. But i hope You will accept my apologize for my impoliteness.
The Outcasts can´t live without their cardamine, we, my crew and me, can´t live without seeing this sun anymore. I remember the first time we dived into the orange sky and our fascination about this. We sailed around for hours, for days and from this time on we were addicted. Maybe this sounds irrelevant, but life is.
If we are allowed, we will sell sometimes iridium to Kara Research Station, and sometimes there are scientists who want a journey to this place. Not that often, but we like to do this from time to time.
As a little gift we can offer some fresh bananas for free, a delicacy only available on Primus, the world my friendly vice capt´n Dr. Cornelius comes from. Dr. Cornelius contends, that these fruits were also growing on the long lost ancient earth. Although he is a serious man and his reputation is well known: but in this case i don´t trust him: It´s too healthy to be human...
May the goddess be always shiney to You, 23´s Carl Bergmann
I remember meeting you in Delta, and I know you were the one at Freeport 1 that day. Lets get straight to your request.
I trust TAZ to keep it confidential and not endanger us in any way. You are all welcome at Safe Haven, in orbit of planet Braillia. It is both military fortress and civilian installation where all guests are directed to. As for Kara I can grant you most basic clearance, sufficient to moor with your cargo freighter and exchange goods. Guards and automatic security systems will not let you in through.
Once in Cayman, obey local patrols instructions whether need arise. I can answer further questions if there are any.
thanks for this fast and kind answer. We, my crew and me feel very pleased by Your invitation to Cayman and Safe Heaven in particular. And as You reminded, we will always act like good guests should do.
Kara is a place for studies, so we never tried to disturb there and will not do further. We deliver and sail away again.
But if there is anything You need, some special trade or supply, please let me know. We like to help the helpful.
But for now we plan a rest on Safe Heaven, not only cause we need some holiday, much more we like to have nice discussions again, about sirius and serious matters of all kind. Ah, and please ask the White Wolf not to spread my little mess with king and queen. I don´t want to get beaten by the Bretonians for this. The only queen i know is my pilot, hard enough to handle...
So thank You again, best wishes, and 23´s, Carl Bergmann
