Quo Garon.
I am Buppa Zu Gan from the Omicrons.
We never met before and you don't know me.
You entered my realm and therefore found my attention.
A few days ago I arranged a meeting with a trader I've known for a while now.
He lives in the deeper Omicrons but unlike me he wants to leave these dangerous systems and see more of the distant and relatively safe house space. A young man who had ambitions and does his job.
He is skilled in smuggling goods and was my personal supplier for a while but I can't have him around me any longer.
I would like to forward him to you cooperation as it seems that your company comes to see a lot of different parts of Sirius, even the newly-opened and mysterious gallic systems.
Be aware that I am not just offering another worker for your young organisation.
I am also giving a young man the opportunity to live a less dangerous life.
This is a favor I do for you and him. I do not seek payment.
Rio Garon,
Buppa Zu Gan

Mr. Buppa Zu Gan, I am not sure whether I should feel honoured or concerned that you have heard of Mallory & Lambert in the Omicrons, as I actually tried to keep a rather low profile while on assignments, but your taking notice tells me a lot about your proficiency and your connections in that part of Sirius.
I can understand anybody who decides not to stay in that part of Sirius, as it is one of the most hostile places that I have ever come across.
I have some questions, though: You said you "can't have him around me any longer", which suggests to me that something is wrong. It sounds very much like "he has to get away because he will be in trouble if he stays".
I mean, not that I care a lot about what happened in the past, but I need to know whether there is some background stuff going on that might be dangerous for the Mallory & Lambert operations. I mean, we really do not avoid risks, but knowing the risks is important, prior to taking them.
So, what I request is some sort of a short bio that tells me who this person is that you want to link up with Mallory & Lambert. Furthermore also please answer why he can't be around the Omicrons any more. In general, we are looking for experienced contractors that can work on their own and also in a team and that are open to learning to know new parts of space. Gallia included.
We are looking forward to your answer.
Eve Mallory
Mallory & Lambert Logistics

Quo Garon.
I am Buppa Zu Gan from the Omicrons.
We never met before and you don't know me.
Be assured that not many know of your visit to the deeper Omicron systems.
You actually managed to slip through my web and I learned about the happenings when you were long gone.
I can't think of a better company for my young friend than somebody who manages to hide from me inside my very own home.
As for the reasons why he has to leave. He is not in danger. Not more than anyone working for me.
I exchange the people I work with every few months. This one has been doing his job for about two years now but I can't keep anyone this close for this long without them learning more about me.
The Omicrons are dangerous. Especially for a Buppa. If people knew who I actually am I'd be dead
in less than a day that passes on Gammu.
If you take care of my friend I can avoid any collateral damage.
He has to disappear before he gets too close, however I am not the kind of person who kills recklessly.
At least not when I can avoid it.
You asked for a bio profile of him. I will send you one.
And just as an addition. "Buppa Zu Gan" already is a title. I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't add another one.
Rio Garon,
Buppa Zu Gan

At the end of the transmission there is a file attached, containing the biographical profile of the young smuggler.
Fast learner; good memory; skilled transport pilot; skilled smuggler; follows orders precisely;
Negative:
Barely any experience with the tradelane and jumpgate system; not too self-confident; underestimates himself; only hits maximum efficiency when working in a team of at least two;
Background:
Was raised on the Kusari Explorer vessel "[data deleted]" by his parents and left them at the age of 15 to work by himself. Failed at establishing a business at his young age and lived in Omicron Theta on the freeport for three years. This is where I found him.

Alright, Buppa Zu Gan, I feel better now, knowing that the Omicron Operations were not that obvious even though they - admittedly - could have been a lot more covert. But with a lack of knowledge of these indeed dangerous systems, more was hardly possible, I guess.
So, you want me to take care of someone you like, but need to get rid of. Alright. I can need transport captains that know the outer regions of Sirius and can cope with dangers that I have not experienced yet. He can coach our contractors when they need to move into the Omicons, while we can teach him the use of the gate and lane systems, as well as all the restrictions and laws that apply in the more "civilised" - no insult indended - parts of Sirius.
I guess you want me to forget about our small conversation and not mention to Mr. Bera Gaidon about how he got his new job and why? It's no problem, just let me know what can be told and what should be kept a secret.
I also regard this acceptance of the young man as a first step towards establishing further ties into the Omicrons, if need be in the future. Decent knowledge of the place, connections and contacts might be worth something.

I am Buppa Zu Gan from the Omicrons.
We never met before and you don't know me.
He doesn't know why he has to leave but he is not stupid. He will make guesses. I provided him with equipment that will give him the ability to pretend he'd be from other houses and I taught him the most basic words of the libertonian, bretonian, rheinlandic, kusari and gallic language, so he'll be able to fool most people. His vessel was renamed, fitting your naming conditions. He is advised to change the name after every important mission. Please remind him about that if he forgets it.
The smuggler was already briefed and is on his way to the given location.
This contact adress is no longer valid. Any transmission you send to it will just disappear into the void.
