Greetings esteemed members of the Board,
I contact you today to extend an invitation on behalf of the Commonwealth of Liberty.
The Commonwealth would like to engage your services and expertise of spaceborne construction for a project of theirs specifically the construction of a docking ring in orbit of Guadalajara, a vital task that they wish to entrust to you, the premier Libertonian construction company.
Naturally the schism between the Republic and the Commonwealth presents a formidable barrier to this otherwise standard business deal which is why, as a friendly party, Orbital Spa and Cruise has consented to host the negotiations in a neutral capacity and of course in superb comfort aboard my personal yacht, The Jewel of Curacao.
The secretary of the Commonwealth Mr McKenna has suggested the system of Inverness as a meeting place so to avoid any unwelcome visitors, if that is an issue I'm certain a compromise can be made to suit both parties along with a date and time for said meeting.
If you are interested or have any concerns and issues with the proposal please let me know.
Sincerely,
Henry Pines

Hello Mr. Pines,
I can certainly say that I wasn't surprised to see a new communication from you, seeing all the work that is being done between us recently, but I could have never guessed the contents of this message. Very surprising to say the least, and as you are more then well aware, that dealings with the Commonwealth is high treason, especially for people such as us who are made easy examples.
But forgive my manners, I am Araevin Teshurr, and I'm sorry that our first meet couldn't be on more comfortable terms. And as for the schism you speak of, Deep Space Engineering isn't behind any one Republic, but rather the people who make it up. That being said the Commonwealth has done nothing but respected Deep Space Engineering in the past, and make claims to be for , ahem the commonwealth of Liberty. Consider it a date; as for the time, we should reconvene on that one, as I know syncing calendars can often be daunting.
And one last thing Mr.Pines, this is a hell of a step up from the our previous relations, I hope you trust them as much as we trust you. And as for your yacht, I look forward to the stay, having spent many vacations on the Hawaii.

A pleasure Director Teshurr,
I have no doubt in my mind that our recent cooperation is what brought forth this offer from the Commonwealth, though I'm sure our luxury accommodation played a sizable part in our role as hosts along with our operations within Commonwealth space.
In answer to your concerns, yes they are trustworthy and I hold them in the same high regard as I hold DSE.
I can fully appreciate your skeptisicsm as the same bold offer was made to us many months ago, it was out of the blue and thoroughly unexpected, It was a gamble I chose to take and now here we are, with a yacht operating a full capacity and plans to upgrade it to a full luxury liner.
I hope this has eased your mind somewhat and I look forward to greeting you in person aboard the Jewel.
Sincerely,
Henry Pines

Mr.Pines, give us a date and we will move our schedule to accommodate the timing. As you'd expect we will be bringing a few grunts, but no one we don't trust implicitly will be there.
