It's been quite a long time since many within the ranks have spoken to those who we left in Gallia, especially when Lord Felanis... well thats another talk for another time..
I am willing to make a deal for something outside of Nox and Cardimine, if you are willing to listen.

The viescreen flickers to life as you see a stutdy dark-haired man in his mid-thirties, an eypatch covering his right eye. He appears to be contacting you from the bridge of an Asco-class gunboat.
Bonjour, I happened to be the first to run across your transmission. The name's Claude Bertrand, and I didn't hear your name yet. Not sure I remember meeting you before either. I kind of do remember that Felanis guy... Vaguely, from the rumours. If it's the Legion you represent, you'd better talk to Christine Armand, she's the only person in our little group who had something to do with it.
Now, you mentioned business, and that's when you got my attention. I don't really know or care if you represent the Legion or someone else. As long as it's lucrative for us, let's hear what you have in mind.
Pardon the rudeness upon the unknowns. I am Jean du Frobeige, Confidant to Lord Vulpe Felanis of the Legione des Damnes, Headmaster of the Grande Guillotine.
And to hear that Armand is alive is refreshing. I wish to speak to her posthaste upon this probably deal, and no one else.
The viescreen flickers to life, revealing a young blond-haired woman, who is apparently sitting in a living cabin one can find at many Brigand stations. The room is dark, so it's hard to make out any particular details.
Bonjour, monsieur. You wanted to talk to me? Well, here I am. Now, normally I'd ask Claude to tell you that you either talk to him or talk to noone: I trust those who're in my crew. But in this case I'll make an exception for old time's sake. That, and I didn't expect to hear about the Legion or the Guillotine. You've got me curious, but I hope you have something really important to say.
Ah the Empress of Epernay herself, once more as radiant as ever.
Allow moi to be frank and to the point. The Grande Guillotine and La Triomphante are in their third phase of reconstruction, and we're in need of fuel for more test runs in the upcoming weeks.
I am willing, while Lord Felanis is away, to make a small monthly contract for Promethene. If you are interested.
