Esteemed representatives of the 'Starfliers',

I hope this message reaches you well. My name is Ian Keldian. I am an independent star traveler and Freelancer from Liberty, Manhattan, to be exact. I have recently talked to someone who mentioned your organization. They told me that you were a group of explorers that travel around Sirius, forgive me, if that is not as precise as it should be. However, this little piece of information has caused me great interest.

Something about me: I am not very long familiar with the universe. Six months ago I received my license to operate space fighters up to the very heavy class. Since then, I've been doing small vendor jobs here and there for individuals and organizations to keep my head above water. I own a Series-CTE-1500 "Hawk", which serves me to pass my delivery orders and as a means of transportation. I haven't made a shot in my time in space yet because I haven't had to. I have been able to avoid conflict and talk in a normal tone even with criminal organizations. I am very non-judgmental towards other pilots. I've noticed how "definitive" everything is out here. It seems so many people know about everything, every person, every organization, every system, at least that's what they seem to think. I am still very inexperienced and have seen little.

So far, I have not left Liberty and have only heard glimpses of the organizations that operate outside of it, aside from government agencies, of course. I want to get to know Sirius, explore the border- and edge worlds, meet people and see what there is to see. It seemed to sound like that is what yourorganization does. I hope you can confirm this and consider letting me join. I am certainly open to further questions, you can reach me on this channel.

Until then, I wish you a good time and safe skies.
