Bonjour

Me and my friend were travelling to Trafalger Base when we both was stopped by 3 Corsairs in Leeds. We had just liberated 2000 units of Helium-3 from the Tau's which we was going to put in to storage for our friends with in your organisation. Now, where was I, ahh yes. The Corsairs demanded 6 Million credits from each of us. Totalling up at 12 Million of course. I can think you'd understand that we found it extremely extortionate, so we defended ourselves. Then a couple of bunters. Bunters. Came along and attacked the Corsairs, thankfully not attacking us. Anyway, at that point on of the Corsairs fleed and when he returned he returned with a Gaian Gunboat and a Gaian Roc Bomber accompanying him. Both Gaians gave us no time to explain anything and I find it, bad for business for both of us when we are forced to defend ourselves that some Gaians actively attack us, when the goods we carry are for them. We couldn't get much information on the Gaians that came, as they took us out without question, and a very short space of time.

I am asking yourselves that you could make other Gaians aware that we in the Consortium shouldn't be attacked, even when forced to defend ourselves from extortionate rates imposed by others. I hope that a similiar repeat does not happen again.

I shall leave this in your hands, and will be looking out for a reply in the near future.

O, a last note. My wife keeps talking about that she hasn't been paid any dues for some nuclear materials she has delivered to Islay base and that she is still waiting to complete talks with a Mr Jones I believe.

Kind regards
Comte Isaac Franck

Annora holds the camera above her, looking down at her as she lies on a couch.

[color=#00cc00]It's a shame to hear that you've been pirated by the Corsairs. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do about that. What the Corsairs do to you is beyond my domain.

The fact that Gaians assisted against you is far more unsettling.

She falls silent for a moment, deep in thought, then sits up on the couch.

Unless you provide us with some sort of identification, then there's nothing I can do about them specifically. However, in future, feel free to say that your trade is sanctioned by the Underloch. If they give you trouble, give us guncams and we will make them regret they ever soiled Gaia's name.

As for nuclear materials, you will need to show me the proof that she delivered them. We recently underwent a change in leadership, and many debts that were owed have escaped my attention.

The video feed flickers off.

The broadcast starts weak, but powers up over the message, giving color to the image slowly over time.
Jacob stands on his cockpit, helmet on he seems to be flying, and, while not looking directly to the camera, he starts talking.

Damn shame, that is. What we really don't need is less supplies coming in.
Seems some Gaians don't get that, unfortunatelly, as they seem to be shooting the wrong fellas.

But we need names man, something to work on!
I dug on your comm message to see if you hid some somewhere but it seems you didn't.
So, hey, listen up: Next time you come to Bretonia, toward one of ours, see if I'm on space, might help ya or something.

Best of luck bud.
Jacob out.

Video off.

Bonjour

I can assure you that I know that you have little control over the Corsairs involved, however it was just to explain the circumstances that led to two Gaians destroying our ships.

Next, I know would have liked some proof to whom it was, but I don't even know who it was myself even. All I saw was one of the hunters screaming for me to get out of there saying two gaians had approached, saying there ship types. As soon as they said that I came under heavy firepower trying my hardest to evade, and with in a minute I lost my ship. Not really enough time to acquire the proofs that I would have wanted, obviously. So you can understand the lack of proof for that reason.

Both your empathy however has made me very happy, though I am sure you could send out a transmission to all Gaian's so that they can be made aware that our operations in bretionia are sanctioned by the Underloch. It's certainly not a direct way of dealing with the two gaians that destroyed our vessels, but it at least makes them aware in the future, if you follow me. Something worth considering. May prevent future situations like the one we experienced from ever happening again.

And rest assured, if we see any one in the Underloch in space, we shall be contacting them to stay in close communications with yourselves.

And now about these nuclear devices, I have contacted my wife and she has given me the following. She is currently in the bar on Islay station as we speak, as I am sure she is very keen to continue our talks as well.

Many Kind regards
Comte Isaac Franck

Annora looks into the camera with a piece of paper in hand.

[color=#00cc00]I apologize for the delay. I believe you will find that our debt to you has been paid.
