Greetings mister Jimmy,

My name is Mason Coleman, one of the Knights of the Forlorn Hope, organization known to you. I contact you today as I am in need of some help.

To get straight to the point, as I do want this done as quickly as possible. We are in need of 300 crew members, capable of manning a cruiser-class ship. We know they could prove hard to find, whilst their past and affiliation could also be a problem, one we are willing to deal with.

If you are able to provide the man-power we need, I am willing to listen to the price you will set. I hope to hear from you soon.

Sincerely
Knight Mason Coleman
The Forlorn Hope

Hey there Knight Coleman,

I gotta tell you, this ain't exactly a good time. The craziness of this Bering stuff is causin' all kinds of hell with our operations. I'll let Ted know you're lookin' for crew, I'm sure he'll get somethin' together. Just be clear that you want crew and not slaves yeah?

Ciao.

I'll understand if you do have problems and payment will be fair, I promise you that.
That they are a normal crew would be preferred, as we do want to keep our lawful-mercenaries status.
We only need to discus the payment now, and I am all ears.

Sincerely
Knight Mason Coleman
The Forlorn Hope

Sir Cumference, Knight of the Round Table

Its unusual that you'd come to us looking for a crew, Barrier Gate being a better location for hires than Freeport Providence. Furthermore 300 able, and willing crew is an even larger stretch in any situation. But I have some friends here and there. I've gathered 255 mostly willing crew for you. I guess you'll just have to be a little short staffed. Additionally there is a rider on this contract, the two Junker pilots who are signing on will be assigned to your waste water reclamation system, I wouldn't want them to see the light of day again.

This is going to run you 2.5 million credits, payable on delivery.

You just say where.

Ted out.

Sir Ted,

Good to hear you work fast. Although not the full number, this will do nicely, after all maybe Barrier Gate will be the next place I check. As for the Junkers, I'll take you up on the suggestion and give them something to recycle.

The price is more than doable, so there is nothing to discus about it. As for the location, it will be Coronado system, Barrier Gate. I, or one of our other pilots, will meet you in the space around the station and escort to a more secure base.

When are you available?

Sincerely
Knight Mason Coleman
The Forlorn Hope

Well the crew was delivered nice and quickly, with a slight change of the plan on our side. From what I can see so far they are capable, or will be sooner or later. At least I didn't regret contacting you.

Until we work again, stay safe.

Sincerely
Knight Mason Coleman
