Keeper,

I have an inquiry, and a request to make of you. Recently we've obtained several ships of differing origins, and while it's usually an easy enough task to modify and repurpose the hardware, we've run into a slight bit of a wall concerning one of Gallic origin. Now I'm aware that Auxesia has capital ships, and therefore the ability to maintain them.

As such, I was wondering if you had any technicians who had worked on Gallic tech before, perhaps even with experience on making the necessary changes to enhance the compatibility of it with standard Sirian tech. The other ship in question, quite honestly, is a cruiser in need of a rather drastic overhaul.

I've got the means to reimburse you as needed, so if there is a way that you may be able to assist me in this, I'm willing to see what can be done.

Nick Stenn,

Zeta Section does not specialize in the maintenance or construction of warships. We are a special operations division. Information about the upkeep of our vessels is otherwise classified, but it helps to have friends in places who have access to resources otherwise unobtainable by smaller organizations.

With this in mind, I can recommend a course of action dependent on your relationship with various groups. However it helps to know the details of the vessels you're specifying. While we aren't necessarily familiar with Gallic technology, we have several former Royal Navy pilots serving within our ranks. Depending on the Gallic craft, we may recommend they speak to you directly, but otherwise we are unable to facilitate your request ourselves.

What you can do is speak to local groups in your operational area that have access to a shipyard facility. If your reputation with Liberty is not withstanding, I may recommend contacting The Commonwealth for assistance, but they are going to require something in return from you. Otherwise, your best bet would be to do business with The Junkers.

I apologize if we cannot be of more assistance, but if you could provide the details of the craft in question, I may be able to provide more options.

Venator,

The gallic ship in question is the Sunbeam of their civilian make. The cruiser, is a Thanatos class warship.

My own apologies for misunderstanding what Zeta Section's tasks are. There isn't a lot of information freely available about your organization, anonymity I'm sure you've worked hard to keep. However, what you have said does already give me more options that are more likely to be entertained than if we had simply approached our friends inside Liberty for help with this. The fact they are engaged in a civil war on two fronts and have the Gallic Royal Navy making incursions into California on a near daily basis lends to the thought they won't have spare shipyards for us to use.

Ah,

The Crayterian-made Thanatos-class heavy cruiser. A design I am unfortunately all-too familiar with after The Crayterians betrayed our forces and sided with The Order in the once-neutral zone of Coronado. We had many run-ins with these vessels, as they were the front liners in pushing us out after much of the work we did fending off the infested forces of Tau-117 went forgotten. Our assets conducted a series of tactical and integral analysis on the vessel in question in case of further conflict for retaliation purposes, as is procedure. Know your enemy's weakness, so you can exploit it fully.

With this in mind, there's several options available to you. The local Zoners of Baffin are familiar with The Crayterians, and may even have experience in minor maintenance on their vessels. This however is speculation, not fact. Another option is the Bretonians, who have worked with The Crayterians before. The Hellfire Legion has crossed paths with the Crayterians on several occasions, including an incursion by several Thanatos-class cruisers into the heart of their territory, and may have collected details on their design.

In fact, I wager if you're willing to work with us, we may be able to secure you a shipyard berth within The Commonwealth's territory and with the Hellfire Legion. If this is acceptable, I can provide you with additional details.

Venator,

I will admit I'm intrigued. And I feel like I've been saying this far more than expected recently, but I will have to remind you that even as I am curious about what the terms of this working arrangement are, we didn't steal the ship, and it was a gift from our friends within the Crayterian Republic. Just like I told the Core when they wanted us to work for them, we have lines we won't cross, and as long as that's respected, we have no problem working alongside you.

Of course, you have more details on the matter, and would be better qualified to determine if there is a possibility of cooperation still happening after that revelation. If that is agreeable to you, I believe we can do business.

Mister Stenn,

You needn't fear us asking you to do the impossible or to turn your guns on specific parties. We'd like, as well as I'd imagine the Legion would like an opportunity to examine the vessel in detail. Our nature as scientists and archivists of technology makes this opportunity rather lucrative to us, as it gives us inside details into the design of a vessel that, if ever hostile again, will save lives and allow us to disable them. We hope this is never the case, but we'd ask that you allow our technicians and the technicians of the Commonwealth to examine the vessel.

In return, we are willing to provide you with the necessary means and manpower to refit the vessel and put it into service. If required we would even be willing to manufacture AR-series weaponry and adapt it to the vessel to the best of our capabilities and ensure improved efficiency in case of the vessel entering combat.

If this is acceptable, I will move forward with notifying the Commonwealth.

Venator,

It would seem we have an accord then. Make the arrangements you need to. When everything is ready and set up, I'll move the cruiser into Inverness and we can progress from there.

The proposed course of action is acceptable, and once we have begun we can worry about the details such as the AR-series weaponry you mentioned. I look forward to hearing the outcome of your discussion with the Legion.

MESSAGE

Nick Stenn,

The Legion has approved the request, and assets of theirs as well as ours will be deployed to escort the cruiser to the designated location. Four of our technicians and myself will be deployed to examine the vessel once its reached the location. Following this, The Commonwealth is willing to provide the necessary means to refit your vessel.

We thank you for your cooperation, and we'll notify you when it's time.

Keeper,

It's been a while, Hunt. Sadly, its business today. What do you know about the Vergil project? And I'd love to find out the source of all those new ships you guys have. Specifically the Lich.

Further, how do you feel about helping me relocate thirty thousand civilians. Not to your planets or the like, just moving them to where they want to be. I can do quite a few things, but thirty thousand is perhaps more than I can support at any given time.
