I am Madame Venturi and I have a favor to ask. Plainly put, I'd like to meet someone in person to have a chat about zoners and your ways. I have interests in.... Freeports but it is more than that. I have a lot of questions but I guess I really should be telling you who I am, non?
I am a La Mère Corse, Boss of the Venturi famille. If you for some reason do not know, I am a Union Corse and Gallic citizen. Simply put, I'm Gallic and I have an interest in how Zoners operate. I would be glad if you would agree to meet me.
Interesting.
Don't you know your king pretty much would like to see us all dead?
Which make me wonder...
Corses...
You folks are some sort of criminal organization working for the crown, isn't it?
Did they pay you to gather some informations about us?
Not like i expect you to answer anyhow...
You want to meet someone you say?
Do you know Freeport 10, madame? Or Freeport 6?
I guess we could meet there...
23's.

The King has no real say over most of our actions, which makes us look like a criminal organization like you say. This may or may not be correct. We Corse do what we have to do to live our lives. This meeting is to help my family for ourselves dear. Nothing about it is for the Crown.
And as you wish, Freeport 10 is a fine meeting spot. Set a time and I'll be moving there.
I can be there tomorrow evening.
Do tell me if that gives you enough time to reach '10.

I am curious, Madomoiselle Venturi, you wish to chat about our ways and our Freeports. I see a lot of red flags on that. I've had mixed encounters with the families of the Union Corse. One old family welcomed me while others have taken bounties upon us set by the Royal Family. Just associating with the Royals alone makes me not trust your intent but now I can't help but think that you are spying, trying to dig up information on us.
Why TAZ? Why not the OSI or the Omicroners? They are as Zoner as we are. How do I know that you won't attempt to take the life of one of my people as other families of the Corse have? How do I know that your intentions are honorable?
Mnemosym, until Madamoiselle Venturi can give me some guarantees and earn my trust, I must disallow this meeting between you and her. In fact, until I can guarantee the safety of my people, I must disallow any meeting between her and any one of my people.
Ah, the infamous Monsieur Holliday, at least in Gallia's eyes.
I'll say it now that I am acting on my family alone. Though I may deal with the Royal Family I do not act for them nor wish harm on your men and women. We are not as cruel as them.
The Omicron Suppy Inc. run goods with to the Royals and I don't quite want them to know of my affairs in Sirius. Omicroners are quite far away to my understanding and like to keep it that way. You are my only choice and I thought your people could help me the best.
About the safety of your people. I'll agree to any measures you have.
As an unforeseen event occurred, i have to inform you i won't be able to attend to any meeting until quite some time.
I won't leave Baffin until we did what we have to do.
Please accept my apologies, Madame Venturi.
I believe Erisians will contact you when we won't be as saddened as we are right now.
Stay shiny.
