From: Z.N.S. Templar Communications Officer A. Midas To: Corsair Council Subject: Requesting permission to enter Omicron Omega and Omicron Gamma
Greetings,
My name is Augustine Midas. I am the communications officer aboard the Z.N.S. Templar, a Nephilim-class mobile shipyard retrofitted with factories that produce components for light spacecraft as well as houses equipment used to repair larger vessels, stationed mainly in Omega-49.
I am contacting the Council with hopes that we may be able to acquire special permission to pass through Omicron Omega and Omicron Gamma into Omicron Kappa. Currently the shortest route to Livadia Shipyards from Omega-49 cuts right through Omicron Omega and Omicron Gamma. Being the only facility that is capable of servicing our ship and its factories,
we have chosen this route to be the best, as we will be able to quickly and effectively conduct emergency repairs as well as resupply weekly instead of monthly, had we chosen another route.
I understand that nothing I have said thus far can sound beneficial to the Corsairs, however if we are to come to an agreement, the demands made by the Council in order for our request to be granted will be discussed and most likely accepted, as it is vital that we do everything we can to have this route available to us.
To summarise, Z.N.S Templar is requesting permission to pass through Omicron Omega and Omicron Gamma into Omicron Kappa for routine and emergency repairs and/or supplies.

Saludos Midas,
Well now, it's not often we get requests for vessels of that size to pass through our home. Normally they are just caught trespassing and shot down. However, we might be.... persuaded to let you pass, if you can over something of use to the empire in return. Given the.... somewhat extreme nature of your request, it'd need to be quite the offer in return. So, let us know what you are willing to do for us, and if it's something good, then we'll see about talking details.

Greetings,
Thank you for your quick reply. First, I'd like to say the crew and I are very happy to hear that the Council is willing to consider our request.
We are aware that the spacecraft produced by the Corsair Empire is of extremely high quality, so I will not bore you with offers for the light civilian craft and parts that we produce, unless you really want me to. We are also aware of the ongoing food crisis on Crete. As the Templar houses two biodomes, we are capable of producing food at quite a decent rate. The excess food that the inhabitants do not consume is usually either sold to those who visit our ship or given to the closest Zoner installation. However, we can increase food production and deliver all of the excess food and more right to Crete or anywhere else you seem fit. The Templar also regularly traverses through the Taus, and so we are also able to collect any ores, alcohols, exotic foods, spices and other exotic materials for the Empire.
Additionally the Templar houses the following:
Facilities needed to act as a barge and is capable of hauling any of the the biggest objects you can think of, save for stars, planets and moons of course at a decent pace.
Search and rescue teams and vessels, as well as large scanner arrays to detect stranded vessels and/or eject pods that are too far away from planetary sensors.
Critical repair assets should any spacefarers require a means to repair the hull of any class of ship at any level of damage. It can also be used to repair the internals of said ships, however, unlike the hull the blueprints are required for this to work.
