Good day, ladies and gentlemen of the famous Maltese Hyperspace fleet.
Last night when I was assisting a few of you ships in Omicron Xi to erradicate a number of Corsair capitals, it struck me. I have not yet formally introduced myself to you. Indeed, as my comm id implies, I am Jack Daniels, Guildmaster of the Core|.
I never imagined I would find myself fighting alongside the Outcasts, but indeed, it has become a reality. And I very much enjoy that reality. In fact, I enjoy it so much, I'd like to keep it that way.
That is exactly why I have a business proposal. I can assure you, it will be mutually beneficial.
If you are interested, let me know and I'll tell you more.
Daniels, out.
~Yours Truly, Jack Daniels, Guildmaster of the Core and STILL the most hated person in the Omicrons.
My name is Audaz Alarcón, Alpha Explorer of Malta Hyperspace Starfleet and the main person leading it. This must be the first attempt to reach a formal and direct communication between both sides, as previous messages have been more casual.
During recent years, the cooperative incursions made by our brethren and yours have displayed a new panoramic to the wild scenery that Omicrons have shown us. The eradication of our common foes has been the main focus for our…amicability, and that has even suffocated the well-known prejudice and grudges of the past, from both parts, that could have subsided this. Moreover, I must agree with you, and say that this “reality” has been quite suitable, in the long run.
In any case, I am curious about what this business proposal is all about. As you may or may not know, our organization is adamant in our growth through technological progress; but we also contribute directly to the defense of other Outcasts. Needless to say, Cardamine takes high priority. So, I wonder how are the benefits going to show up, in front of us, for those ends.

Greetings, Mr. Alarcón.
It seems we share the same duties and fundamental qualities. You protect your people and assets and I do the same for mine. We both care for technological advancement and we both can see the bigger picture. That's a good start.
However, a barrier still remains between us. Our factions are more or less, different. The common enemy might bring us closer together, but we need to put in a lot of work before we can call eachother, for a lack of a better term, "Friends".
Here is my proposal. It is simple. We need access to cardamine. I can assure you, it won't be used to develop a cure against the addiction. On the contrary, we have personnel in the Core that are in fact addicted to the substance. My people come from all corners of Sirius and some of them, at one point in their lives, became dependant on Cardamine. This is why I need a steady supply of it.
In return, The Core, or at the very least, those directly under my command will not fire a single shot in your general direction. Furthermore, we'll do our best to support your fleets whenever the opportunity presents itself. We will turn a blind eye to any contraband in the holds of Hyperspace Fleet ships. Your men will be treated with the respect they deserve and in return, we expect the same from you.
Only our combined efforts can and will bring an end to the expansion of the Corsair Empire and by extent, The Order.
Daniels, out.

Core formally requesting Cardamine? Well, this is quite an unexpected proposal, but one that can set an important precedent for future conversations.
The most conservative of families would claim that this could be an elaborated scheme, but I can also understand the needs of those who are blessed with the Orange substance. If you want to secure a straightforward process on this regard, logistically speaking, I can internally communicate this to the rest of Dons; see those who are more willing and open-minded and see what we can do in no time. Furthermore, plantations currently blossom with Cardamine and the supply flows at a stable and high rate, I cannot see why we should not grant you what you require.
Keep in mind that, as you wisely mentioned, Cardamine research would be more than questionable if it turns out that you are trying something similar as Cryer. It should not be a surprise that those who will directly offer you the required amount will start bargaining at a lower Cardamine amount than expected. Nevertheless, if you agree to the initial terms, maintaining a steady consumption, it should not be a problem to completely supply you all that you need to satisfy effectively. Ultimately, the most hesitant of Dons would approve your taking, assuming that everything goes as planned.
Also, our forces have already been informed of restraining themselves when Core shows up; and we do not intend to change that. Suffice to say, you will have our support against our enemies, as our combined efforts should continue to impose fear, terror on those who dare to defy us. The Corsairs are a blight to Sirius, and the laughable and embarrassing moves made by the Order are no match to our raiders; our families will be most pleased by taking down each one of them, and if Core decides to take the initial step towards the Orange Dream, you are more than welcome to fight alongside us.

I honestly could not care less about Cryer or their attempts to undo the effects of cardamine, which, as we both know, are a perfectly viable augmentation to the human body and straight from mother nature too. That's the best kind.
I would appreciate it very much if you do go ahead and consult the rest of the Dons. I'm sure that given your political position, you'd be quite more convincing then myself. APM will have Bisons on stand by, until then. Oh and uh, did I mention, they won't come empty. Assorted weapons and other goodies will be shipped to the cardamine distribution point of your choice.
I hope, nay, I am sure our relationship would be beneficial to us both
