Mes Amis:
I am afraid the lifestyle of Les Vampirs was not quite what I expected it to be. First and foremost, the appointments of le Brigands bases leave...something to be desired. Secondly, as I have participated in several instances of 'le tax', my reputation has suffered somewhat. I have recieved many tearstained letters from fans begging me to return from 'Le cote en Noir'. However, most important of all, I have been even less challenged as a racer here than I was on the course.
Therefore, I leave you, having accepted a sponsorship from GMS to return to le racecourse. I will of course respect our former partnership and not give any information to la policie. Furthermore, I leave you in the good hands of a young friend of mine, one far more suited to le Brigands lifestyle.
Bonne chance mes amis.

bonjour mon amis I am sad of this most distressing news that you are leaving us, it was an honor while it lasted and there will always be a Docking Spot in the Valence Base hangar dedicated to you.
We will as a gesture of good will sponsor Anonymously any future races that you may partake in,
I must say I am touched by your dedication not to leave us in a rut by recommending another to replace you. This Asterix fellow is known well at montbard for his daring raids on EFL transports from the nearby Montbard base, I will gladly taking him under our wing tell him to report to des Vampirs Hangar 'Nosferatu' on Valence Base A.S.A.P farewell M'Sieur Clovis.
Bon Voyage et Bonne Chance.
