Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is Jack Henderson and I run operations for the Independent Miners Guild (IMG|). I would like to offer you my respect for the successful construction of your base in contested territory. Many have tried before, many have failed so far. The IMG have a history of supporting those who need help in the Taus and who are our friends.

IMG transports made contact with some of your ships yesterday, and saw IMG transponders, so after locating the base, the Guild decided that we would like to start a dialogue with you and see how we can work together and assist each other in the volatile Taus environment.

Feel free to contact me, if you are interested in any form of cooperation.

Yours sincerely

Jack Henderson

Thank you for your sentiment.

Danica belongs to Universal Exports, an independent mining and shipping company. We would be delighted to enter into cooperation with the Independent Miners Guild, both financially and otherwise.

What exactly did you have in mind?

Dear Mr. Jack Morrows,

Thank you for your reply. The IMG will be monitoring the situation closely. I'll ask you a direct question: Have you made any deals with the Junker Marauders? They seemed not to care for your shipping in Tau 23 and Tau 37 when IMG patrols were looking for them - which came as a surprise.

I ask this because the IMG| treats the Junker Marauders (JM|) as enemies and hunts them down when we encounter them. They pirate IMG vessels whenever they find the strength to successfully do it. It's nothing short of an open, violent, armed conflict.

I would warn you against getting involved with the scum of the Taus as this could have a negative impact on our relations.

Yours sincerely

Jack Henderson

We have indeed made an arrangement with the Junker Marauders, which benefits both sides. That said, we have no interest in IMG shipping and do not pose a threat to your organization, but nor will we be bullied. We are an independent company, and will make dealings with whomever we see fit.

Mr. Jack Morrows,

I'll make it very clear that I think you are making a mistake. But it is your mistake to make and not mine. Years of Tau experience have taught me who to trust and who to shoot.

However, you seem to have made up your mind about not wanting the Guild to assist or interfere, so we will not get involved.

As long as the mining field in Tau 37 is open to IMG miners of all branches, there will be no problem with the IMG| for you.

Good luck. You'll need it.

Yours sincerely

Jack Henderson

I respect your opinion, and respectfully disagree.

Rest assured that we will not interfere with IMG miners of any branch. They are both welcome to mine and to enjoy a sake or rheinbeer in our bar.
