(//this discussion is considered to be happening before the second Delta crisis)
"Then, I will take a Gin Tonic, please.
....
Hmmm, if the captain doesn't mind, I will begin with the general topic of our visit, then we may talk about details."
For the moment, the captain of the KNF stood silent, a sort of implicit approval of her leading the conversation. For the moment.
"The Republic of Kusari, for most of it's existence, has given little attention to the Omicron region. It's quite remote, filled with sorts of people we rather not deal with, or that came here to avoid dealing with us. The sigmas usually provide a buffer to the sort of weirdness that occurs outside our home, and there is always yet another issue in our core systems or our neighbors to keep us busy.
However, and this is the concerning part, seems some of the undesirable things that roam around here have been given too much room, and have started to find ways to bother us without us having a chance to spot them coming first. That is one of the reason I and the KNI are here, to fix that issue."
The agent takes a sip of the freshly made Tonic Gin. The golden emblems on her uniform stood out with the polish they had received recently, in comparison to the rest of the clothes, colors faded from time and some sort of heat damage.
"Kusari has many times in the past negotiated with Core for the establishment of a observation group in your facilities, from where we could operate autonomously to investigate the threats of the omicrons. Supply and logistics, as well as intelligence sharing, would be the things we seek from the Core. In return, the previous Guildmaster showed interest in operating more actively in Kusari controlled space, and closing deals with the Naval Forces about sales of Military Equipment produced by your companies.
To put is simply, we would like some partners in the area that we can rely on, and you can't have too many good relations in the Houses.
There is a saying back at our lands, "How delightful to receive friends from afar." Would you like to have such friends, Mister Daniels?"
