You're a man I have heard about but have never met.
I'm Vin Chenzo, I'm sure you may have heard of me, if not, I'm surprised.
Your units have passed me your name, so I'm calling you out.
He chuckles
Please senor, you'll get used to my sense of humour.
In times of old I have represented the Maltese Outcast Guard, 101st, Ghosts of Razgriz, I'm classified as a special operative and whereas my activities over the past decade will become apparent to you soon enough, I wish to extend the the hand of Loyalty to the Maltese cause, discuss things with you face to face, as Dons of our stature do.
I've caused somewhat of a stir around the Maltese nation on my return, the issues which have hit close to home is my overhaul of the Malta Research Station, also under construction now the Comercio Fantasma.
I trust you wish to speak to me, we have much to discuss, senor.
A ghost. figuratively as well. I was wondering when you would turn up. Ever since the reports about you asking to meet me, I may say I had been waiting for this. I must say, you have gotten a mixed reputation around these parts, with your apparent relations to some groups peaking my curiosity.
I would like the location of our meeting, along with the purpose. There we may... discuss all that must be said. If we are venturing away from the safeties of Malta and the Omicron Alpha system, naturally I will bring an escort wing.
What I'm about to organise may upset you slightly, but I promise it's necessary. Over the next 24 hours, within your personal dwelling you will find a black briefcase, it'll be placed upon that beautiful granite desk of yours. Within it you'll find a tracking device which once plugged into any ship up to the size of a Ranseur's navigational system will take full control of the ship and lead you to where I am, within Omicron Alpha. You won't have come across this kind of device before. I assure you that the technology within isn't strictly conventional but most certainly won't damage anything. Just have your commander plug it in, or plug it in yourself if in a fighter, it'll do the rest.
Where I am changes, it's been moving for over a decade well away from patrol paths or even where our enemy's might think to attempt evade us.
You'll be traveling at maximum cruise speed for a little over two hours, bring that book you like to read.
Upon your final final approach your ship will be drawn in and moor itself, please feel free to bring whatever kind of escort or fighter squadrons you see fit, although I can promise you they won't be necessary. The radiation levels will indeed be high, but as standard any Maltese vessel is very well equipped to handle it.
I've been a guardian of Maltese interests and in control of larger military assets than you command for longer than your group has existed. I promise you, you and your people will come of no harm whether our talks go smoothly or to my disfavour.
The nature of our meeting?
Upon my initial return and travels in my Sabre, I've learnt of many atrocities which took place in my absence, civil wars to name but one. I will simply not allow the spillage of any Maltese favouring blood, it's high treason. I'm not trying to hold you to account for anything, I wish to make you fully aware of my intensions and discuss with you any changes you may see fit.
One of your focuses is research, I can open doors for you which you didn't even know existed.
This interaction regardless of how it goes, will greatly strengthen Maltese interests for both of us.
Any questions, I'll leave the comm link open for you.
Assuming there are no questions, I'll know when you leave as the device will signal me.
One thing is for certain, you've never come across anyone quite like me.
On a final note, your men and women in command of the Storta and Hasta class ships I've witnessed in person are most impressive. I wish more commanders were like them.
You seem to have a misinterpretation of the word "slightly". You must realize I have been contacted by the Legion Maltesia about possible correlations with the Nomads. After recent horrors in battle against them, you may realize this is not to be taken lightly. As well, an old scrap of technology that is not conventional does not sound like a good time. To a far away unknown location sounds amusing, and the fact that it will take me there on it's own? Delusional.
I would like coordinates to the area of our meeting, or for it to be held in a more... public place. This is not simply a tea party disagreement, and if nothing else, I would like that tracking device under surveillance and hacked. I will be coming with escorts.
You give commands and your units execute them without further question, si? Things then happen with no further input from yourself.
The device inputs waypoint information for an ever changing destination, your crew do the actual movement. *he sighs*
The legion what? Who?
He scoffs
Not important. I have indeed had a brief encounter with an individual who seems to have caught the dreaded Liberty Lawls Syndrome. They, that unit is not the topic of my intended meet, however I’m open to discuss in person as it becomes apparent.
Senor, I’m not going to discuss relations, especially those which are clearly delicate over comms. I’d rather show you in person, which is why I extended the invite.
I’ve deactivated the device when I felt something wasn’t quite right, it’s just hardware now- Also, please don’t attempt to amuse me by suggesting a device is hackable- the very people who made it are the only ones who can do anything with it.
He grins
That sounded a tad hostile, my apologies; ‘twas not the intension. One assumed the head of a organisation in search of technological advancements would have twigged, or perhaps my description alluded to something more, my mistake? Alas it’s not important now.
Allow me to bring us back on track. Your security concerns baffle me, however perhaps you name a time and place, I’ll come alone and perhaps from there we can get to the bottom of many misfortunate events which will ultimately lead to a much brighter future.
If you’re lost for ideas, I believe I still have a private area on Ibiza? Otherwise, it’s your call.
Ibiza base would certainly be a more... agreeable location to host our meeting.
There is certainly much we have to discuss. Your return from hibernation to alleged relations with the Wild, as well as apparent relations with Bretonian Junkers. I will arrange any drinks that may be desired. I expect you not to bail on this now.
You have a chance to clear your name and get a word in to high places. Provided you can reciprocate your apparent valuable information to me.

Senor Harabero,
a large grin on his face can be seen on the comm window
There are more surprises with me the more you dig, but you'll find each and every one of them to be angled towards keeping the Cardimine flowing and Maltese interests not just defended, but the very spear to the enemy's throat.
By this I mean the drinks are on me!
I've not long landed on Ibiza, I began travelling from where I wanted to meet you shortly after I sent the last transmission in anticipation of your acceptance.
The bar staff will kindly show you to where I am on your arrival. I'd humbly request you leave your guards outside once they have freely inspected my personal quarters here- I like to converse one to one where possible, however, the choice is of course yours.
