Buenos dias Senor Stow,
it seems it is yet again a joyful opportunity that leads me to contact mi amigos of the Omicron Suppy Industries!
Well, actually i hope it is, but let me start over- mi honorable hermana Valeria has pointed out to me that you have a special business opportunity- one that iprobably don't want to skip? Now the details were a bit sketchy, so please set me in the picture as i trust mi hermana she wouldn't bother if it weren't worth it. Gracias for your time...and hopefully on good commerce!

Hasta la vista,

Well, It would seem that miss Valeria has us both at a disadvantage. While I lack the complete set of details for what She had in mind, I will fill you in on what I do know. Our communications began within the context of myself securing an escort through Corsair Territory to conclude other business. During our conversations, she made mention of a rumor she had heard, something about a light mining vessel able to survive a nuclear mine blast. She was rather interested in such a bold claim, as she seemed to be fairly sure the empire possessed nothing that durable in the same class. She also expressed interest in the acquisition of this vessel, for further testing and reverse engineering I'm sure.

The business opportunity was firmly her proposition. She postulated that acquiring such a vessel would pose significant challenges for the warriors of the empire, whereas such a task would not be beyond the abilities of OSI. I merely offered that I could attempt to gain possession of said vessel. Of course She also was quite adamant about the generous recompense package for the acquisition of the vessel.

Unfortunately, She was rather vague as to exactly what this ship was, saying only that it was a light mining ship.

Of course, the offer still stands. If the Benitez family wishes to obtain one of these vessels, Then I am confident that I can use my contacts to acquire one. All I would need is to know exactly which vessel I am looking for. So I guess that the spoken of business opportunity is merely a vessel acquisition contract. I get you a ship, in exchange for recompense from your honorable family.

I apologize that I cannot provide further detail, but perhaps you should ask Miss Valeria exactly what it was she had in mind?

Senor Stow,
gracias for your response - seems mi hermana has spotted a bueno opportunity for the Empire, i am intrigued to see if those miners had a stroke of luck to actually produce an advanced space vessel, fit even to brave the Omicrons!

What makes me wonder though- are you sure -she-was speaking about being "adamant about the generous recompense package" or might that be an idea of yours Senor?
No worries, i understand fully well your need to make pesetos, so feel free to name a price and we will see if we can agree on it, bueno?

Also, the ship we are speaking of looks like this:

I have seen it myself some times in the Omegas...so senor, can you do this service for us and aquire one?



Hasta la vista,

Mr. Benitez,

My apologies for the delay in my communication, but I was engaged in a bit of research regarding the ship. Namely finding out what it was. After some research through our internal archive, I believe I have found a location which I can easily acquire this vessel.

To answer your question breifly, I can do this service and will move to begin the process as soon as I am able. I will contact you once I have arrived at the location with further details so we can finish up nailing down a price and other loose ends.

P.S. I may have exageratted slightly concerning recompense, but I'm sure we can find a mutually beneficial amount.
