To the attention of: Bessie Bishop Assistant! Miss Bishop! In case you have forgotten: You have successfully escorted me from the Cortez system to Barrier Gate Station in the Coronado system! Do you remember? If not, here are more details: We have encountered each other in front of Planet Curacao. This happened on September 16th, 834 A.S. My ship is a Kin-class Samura fabricated civilian freighter running the transponder name "Moreya". You informed me about the Technocracy having suffered a major defeat in a combat encounter with the Liberty Navy. Due to the presence of an alien vessel, I have hired you as an assistant escort. We are both from Planet Houston in the Texas system, allegedly! Frankly, you appear to quite frequently say "heck". I hope this is enough information to make you remember! I contact you hereby to inquire whether you would like to seek a secondary employ under my management. As it seems, at least one of my assistants appears to be under the distracting harassment of alien origin. The assistant in question is using a fightercraft named "Lazurith". I wish to propose a long term assignment for you, which contains the safekeeping of myself as well as my active assistants, more specifically in the vicinity of Barrier Gate Station. More specifically from alien entities. Of course this shall not bind you to this location, nor do I expect you to babysit my assistants or me, however, should you be in the nearby vicinity and identify a "Nomad" vessel, or one that strongly insinuates to be operating on their behalf, I am inclined to reward your efforts at hunting these vessels down with a monetary reward of 10000 Credits. Should you decide to accept this assignment, you would also be officially become my assistant, which permits you to receive a quasi arbitrarily allocated experience score called XP. Earn enough XP and you can increase your Assistant Level, which rewards you with discounts on my services, coupons and a wider range of assignments! This should deeply excite you! I believe this should be an interesting offer to you, as hunting down mischievous spacefaring entities overlaps quite perfectly with your professional career as bounty huntress! Regards, Dr. R. Novak
