From: Eric Stone
To: The Order


Kallisti sir,

I shall introduce myself. I am Eric Stone, head of security of the Tre-Del-Fida and Freeport XXI.

While i was looking for a new ship for defending our assets and scouting patrols. I came across a Pilot who flew the Hathor with papers of the order. When he heard i was interested in that ship he offered me to buy his. As he was looking for a smaller one for his retirement. But due to the damage this ship has taken and the repairs wich are still needed. I was hoping i could get your permission to buy a new one from your home Planet Akabat.

This ship will be flown on papers of the Temporary Autonomous Zoners and when it has served his duty. If that time arrives i shall contact you for instructions what to do with the ship.

23's,
Eric Stone

Admiral Golanski of The Order here.

We received your transmission much earlier and discussed it, however due to load of paperwork we had to delay answer.

Now, It would not be appropriate to simply reject however Order shipyards are working on 100% capability, making up for lost Hathors and to support surviving capital ships. Instead, I have thought over better deal for us both.

Ask your high ups or whoever is tasked with your fleet about unused Hathors that belong to inactive or deceased members of your religion. Instead of pressuring shipyard more, I offer you to send us proof of said Hathor aquisition, alongside assigned new name whether you choose to do so. With that Hathor will be yours without additional costs and we, at Order can start rebuilding our lost databases.

Golanski out.

Greetings Admiral Golanski,

It has been a long time since we last talked in the Omegas. I have been on an extended sabbatical and out of touch with most of Sirius including my fellow TAZ. I just happened to be checking comms today and noticed the correspondence. While I do hate to intrude, I perhaps can be of some service.

While personally contemplating the hither and thither of the universe, the crew on board with me have been conducting research into those various things that squints tend to do. Our escort consists of 3 Hathor class vessels currently tethered to this ship. The necessity of these escorts has proved minimal in the last several months and I had planned to issue orders for their return to Baffin.

The ships are registered as:

[TAZ]-Palinouros
[TAZ]-Cabbage.Ravage
[TAZ]-Savage.Principle

Two Conference class gunships are arriving on station within 48 hours with a new group of researchers and those who have completed their work or looking for some R&R will be departing with the Hathor class ships.

The Palinouros and Ravage will require extensive maintenance as part of their 5 year service schecule dictates. The Principle being the newest ship will require only standard maintenance at Pueblo.

Thus, I propose that Eric Stone be given command of the Principle, with the ship's transponders designated to whatever name Eric desires. This will fix the short term issue of a Hathor class ship in service on patrol.

I would ask, however, that as you rebuild your fleet, that one such gunship be, in the future, designated to replace the Savage.Principle. I will personally bear whatever costs might be involved for such benevolence.


Thank you,

Popess Gabrielle O'Shea
Minister of the infinitesimal

Thank you, Popess O'Shea. 3 TAZ Hathors are accounted for. We will be awaiting whatever name Mr. Stone will want to rename his new-old Hathor. Those ships are built to withstand edge worlds and more.

Once our shipyard will have spare capability, new gunboats can be naturally built for export. Any more Order technology in your hands will be listed, less paperwork for our new database will be required too.

Have a good day. Golanski out.

Kallisti,

First of all i want to thank Popess Gabrielle O'Shea for her generosity and help with my request.

secondly i hereby send the information you require Admiral Golanski.

As the [TAZ]-Savage.Principle needed some maintenance repairs i took myself the time to rename this vessel. From now on it will be called:

- [TAZ]Themis

When the repairs and the papers are done. I shall take the captain seat of this fabulous vessel and like you said in your last message: "Those ships are built to withstand edge worlds and more." That is something wich i am counting on.

23's,
Eric Stone
