Esteemed Med Force Enterprises representatives,
Let me introduce myself. I am Ezra, direct superior of Johnny, from his Office.
We are currently the target of a proxy conflict with Bretonia, and despite the help that we were providing to Bretonia, and mere hours before we finished a contract with the Bretonian Armed Forces, we have been the target of either corruption or embezzlement, or that we have become too much of a potential problem for them, as a non-governmental "intelligence agency" as many, at least one faction of Zoners, consider us. We are merely private investigators, and so this is why I decided to contact Med Force Enterprises.
We have already two wounded agents. We managed to get them the necessary help but we need more help. Our headquarters, located on a Frigate, is located in a secluded place, and we would like you to bring supplies to us. It is located within House territory, but we are probably going to move the headquarters to the Edge Worlds. Ironically it would be safer, as the two wounded agents were wounded right in the hearts of House territory and between two Houses respectively.
I'm going to be truthful with you; we may have a Marines contingent, and powerful vessels, we are neither in shape to fight an entire Guild, or an entire House for petty reasons. So, what we need is a constant Med Force Enterprises help to conduct SAR, and administrate the necessary medical treatment, and get our agents in shape quickly.
We would like to know if you are trustworthy or not. And worth our credits. I am sorry to speak this harshly, but it is a matter of life and death, until this stupid contract is done.

Mr. Ezra,
I will open this with your own question. We at Med Force Enterprises would like to know if YOU are trustworthy or not? When it comes to the safety of my people and the organization that they have helped me build, I have to be firm at times. We are Zoners and none of us will soon forget what Bretonia did not just to Gran Canaria but to the people that once thrived on it. If you have been doing intelligence work for the Crown then you will know that, while no official state of hostility exists, Zoners are mere pushovers to them. If you have angered the Crown, they will take great joy in shooting up my people if we are caught getting involved. THIS is what concerns me the most.
If you have wounded agents, I will not turn them away for treatment. I have secure facilities to treat them. If you are able, I will take them at a neutral site. If you are in the Edge worlds, that will be open for discussion. As to regular supplies? I am uncomfortable with that when it seems you have people coming after you. Unlike you, we do not have powerful warships to fight back with nor is that our doctrine.
So let us arrange treating those agents as I will not deny them care.

Good day, Doctor Holiday,
First of all, it's "miss". Quite awkward. But whatever:
We are keenly aware of what transpired on Gran Canaria, and what happened to the Zoners. This contract with the Crown was combination of circumstances which made it valid for our Office: which at the time, started. The Office's motto is "we don't ask questions". We're a third-party, here to be used as a trump card by any organization or individual.
Can you see the parallel with the Zoners philosophy now? Our agents simply apply what they learnt and did before coming into this Office. I hope this answered your, obviously relevant, questions about us. Of course the Office is shrouded in mystery; we also are the guardians of many secrets.
Then the two agents will be brought to you. They are inside our Frigate's medbay waiting in cryosleep. We can move anywhere, but the best system for this would be a neutral site indeed. Baffin? As I see this transmission emanates from there. Would that be OK for you? If you need a meeting beforehand, I am located in Freeport 6, Tau-29. Quite close.
We are merely unaffiliated investigators, and apparently, the Crown can't understand the investigations we've made. That's why we are the target of unrestricted assault, spearheaded by the Bounty Hunters Guild, who suddenly came out of the shadows to hunt us. Getting caught isn't even a variable to take into account, be reassured. Even if this happens: your organization only help those in need, right? Technicalities are extremely powerful to get out of awkward situation... One time isn't defining.
Our main problem right now is the two agents.
No need for regular supplies if you aren't able to. It will be me and Johnny, and our trump cards on the frontline, not our agents or the personnel who has even less to do with whatever the Crown smoked when they decided to put that bounty on our Office. What we need in addition is Search and Rescue for us two. That's it.
You know where to find me, if you have any more questions, Doctor. I hope you can understand us now.

First of all, I apologize for the identity error, Miss Ezra.
If you are already at Freeport 6, stay there! I know the administrator there. He is a no nonsense man so he keeps tight security in and around his station. You cannot miss him as the man is huge. Ask for Blaine in the Deadbeat Cafe. There is also goods there for purchase so that will help you some. Also, I have a medical team already there and they have been notified. Let us not make things more difficult by moving people around.
I still have concerns. Getting caught isn't even a variable to take into account, be reassured. Even if this happens: your organization only help those in need, right?
I would like to believe that but in the eyes of the Bretonian Crown, they would see this as us getting involved which would put our hospital in Omega 3 in danger not to mention bounties and other problems. Remember, I have had a lot of problems with the Crown in the past so we would rather not escalate it.
The fact that your office is shrouded in mystery is concerning which is another reason why I would like to keep it at Freeport 6. We keep a lot of doctor/patient confidentiality and a lot of secret research. Forgive my mistrust but we do not need any of that information getting out. Freeport 6 is a neutral site. Between the staff there and that I can send people from the Baffin base there, it is easier for us.
Bring your people into the medical ward at the Freeport and your people will be treated.
