Dear friends,
Thank you. I understand that you don't want to take any unnecessary risks. The person who is wanted by the Gauls for a good reason has asked us to help. And since it's well known that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, it's been decided to help.
I am gravitating towards the Kusari route, this way it will be easier to shake them off. I think we could receive some help with navigation through Kusari space. Fuel and other supplies, which we will naturally pay for, as you know not too many people tolerate us in Kusari.
Maybe I could visit Ainu along the way as well, it's been more than four years from the time of my last visit. I even considered joining your movement at some point. I am having a certain sympathy with your ideology. When it's not diving too deep in Kusari cultural code, of course.

⧫ Your request
It appears you have quite the issue at hand when you need to reach out to us with such a list of requests. Navigational assistance is the easiest, further we can organize distractions and supplies reaching from fuel to spare parts. At a cost, naturally. Make us an offer and a more detailed list, then we can discuss this matter further. I will already prepare 3 different routes for you. I take it that you hide within the Ezo Ice Field at the moment?
Nothing speaks against a visit on Ainu, except when we face pursuers in the vicinity of the station. Furthermore, I would like to inquire what kind of vessels will be involved in this operation, it might be risky to move larger assets through some of the routes I have in mind.
Thank you for your cooperation in regards of the open points. We hope to find a mutual benefiting basis for your upcoming operation.

Dear friends,
We have no heavy assets in that theater at the moment. I am very glad to hear of your commitment to cooperate, pretty sure the visit to Ainu will be fantastic. Sadly, I am not sure how long I could stay. This may very well be interesting. As for supply, I will be able to provide you a list a little bit later when we specify more details.
But yes, please prepare a tea ceremony and some fancy kimono for me.

We are able to spare a few fighters and bombers for an armed convoy towards where you wish to go within the Sigma sector. We only have the requirement that you do not pick fights with any of our allies during the escort or any other action that might cause a diplomatic problem for us.
We do not like the Gauls. And if this person is as hated by them as you say, we will approve of your friend's journey through Kusari.

Ikeda Yume,
I do clearly understand that Kusari is your home and the Outcasts are guests. No one wants guests to cause trouble in their home, naturally, there's no intention to do anything that would hurt your regional interests. Especially considering a fact that the success of your movement is the success of a local Cardamine market. Which in the end is very beneficial for us all.
Your hatred towards Gauls is easy to explain, I know that a lot of people in Kusari tend to be xenophobic. Especially I heard of the residence of Kyushu. But in the end, it comes down to every single individual, as well as practical interest in any given situation. I am not a radical, I like thinking of myself as an opportunist. We live in a complicated world, and in this world, we are not having the most power to push our agenda by force. In the end, it comes down to some scheming, which even led to some not very well thought accusations of me being a traitor.
I will let you know when we will be approaching Hokkaido.

⧫ A plan
Ohenji ga okurete, shitsurei itashimashita. We apologize for the wait.
We came up with a basic plan for the joint journey. In the following extracts, the main routes will be marked in red, while alternative routes will be brown.
We will begin in Tau-53. I assume that your convoy will be cautious enough to stay away far enough from the main routes while waiting. We would begin with our flight towards Lentini. In case of hostiles appearing in larger numbers, we shall aim for Tau-37 and then make use of the known smuggling route leading to Kyushu.
If everything is calm, we should proceed through the explosive gas zone, slowing down possible pursuers, past the point the Privateers lingered around and then towards the Hokkaido Jumphole. If any forces await us there, we can redirect our flight towards the Nagano system. From there on we would use Blood Dragon territory to avoid detection by possible enemy forces.
Following a successful escape from Tau-53, we will make extensive use of Hokkaido's cloudy nature. As primary route, we would aim close to the sun corona, barely touching the Kyofu. We will use the Unyo Cloud as cover and avoid the trade lane crossing without getting too close to Wakkanai. We will briefly leave the clouds then, fly through the Kyofu and make our way to the New Tokyo Jumphole.
In the unlikely case of hostiles appearing at the Tau-53 hole, we will be best off with a distraction and an immediate retreat to Ainu. From there on we can either go around Sapporo and then towards the New Tokyo Jumphole or to Kyushu as alternative in worst case. In case patrols from the Matsumoto or Wakkanai appear in the Unyo Cloud, we have the option to flee into Blood Dragon territory and use their usual gateway to the Sigmas. (Note: This would be the most suitable main route, but we would have to request permission from the Shogunate first. If this is desirable to you, we shall contact them right away with a proposed route. Blood Dragon territory for now is just an escape option as using this Jumpholes to flee in an emergency will surely find understanding within the Shogunate later on.)
The route through New Tokyo is mostly self-explaining. In case of prior escape to the Taus/Kyushu, we will have a long flight in large areas of open space ahead, as well as the critical zone around Kagoshima in Kyushu and Kabukicho in New Tokyo. The primary route is offering sufficient cover in an area with low patrol count.
Honshu will be the longest part of the route, unless we aim for the Blood Dragon route afterall.
We will start with Hikone as waypoint, then proceed through the Hiyo Cloud into open space, fly past Planet Honshu and either aim for the Sigma-19 Jumphole or the Okinawa Jumpgate. As an alternative, we can fly a lengthy route past two trade lanes and vast areas of open space until we arrive the Hiryo Cloud. After entering the Cloud we would proceed to the Sigma-13 Jumphole.
We hope this plan is satisfactory. If you wish to change something or receive the full detailed map for Kyushu and the Taus, do not hesitate to ask for it. If you wish us to request permission for your trespassing within Blood Dragon space, feel free to tell us together with some information we can provide the Shogunate. We will happily change the plan then. As a last note, we would like to notice that a visit on Ainu might has to wait until the operation succeeded, given it would be unwise to hold the whole convoy for it. We would like to invite you to a tea ceremony afterwards though. Matters like payments can be discussed after the operation was concluded.

Ikeda Yume, Agent Chanai,
I am breaking radio silence to let you know that we will be approaching Ainu soon. I am not maintaining contact with my group and don't know where they are. The designated person is on my ship. I can hold a meeting with both parties, it's up to you to decide on the format.

⧫ Your arrival
It appears to me like you face unexpected trouble. You are most welcome to proceed to Ainu, I assume we can discuss how to proceed further once you and the - admitted interesting seeming - friend of yours arrived. I can only repeat the question Yume-san asked already. We will prepare a quiet corner on Ainu for this meeting in advance following this message. We do not want to welcome guests unprepared afterall.
