Aoi,

After staying a while on Planet Cambridge, I have realized just how much I missed my home. Bretonia, and especially Cambridge are beautiful and I am unsure if I want to leave this place again. Now, I know that you are still young and probably desire to travel around, and thus I have made the decision that I will give you full control over the Sparta-2. We've worked together for a while, you've spent a while on this ship, got to know the crew and made yourself a part of the crew that is respected by all of us.

I've talked to them, and they are all not yet willing to stay on Planet Cambridge, wishing to go on further and explore more. You've watched me control the ship a couple of times already, and you have commanded it yourself on several occasions too, so naturally, you are the first person that came to mind when I was thinking about a new captain.
What do you think, are you up to the task?

Regards, Jack Steffens

Tsk-tsk-tsk. Falling silent for so long was not very nice of you, nii-san.

You've made your junior sister worried. Very worried. Don't do this again, at least send be a word about where you are and that you're still in one piece.

The Sparta... i remember. I kind of missed that huge bucket with nuts.
I certainly will not let down the crew's desire. I will take over the ship. Yet, i would assume you would have some conditions before i actually get in command of it. What would they be?
