Buonasera,
Esteemed gentlemen of the Barrier Gate Navy, I am Fabiano Rizza, the Don of Liberty and all surrounding space. You *must* have heard of me, and if not you can consider me your new friend and benefactor. We share a mutual interest in free passage of all ships through the Alpha-Liberty corridor, so I want to offer you my aid should you need it. My capo is already in the area on a different assignment. These days he goes by the callsign 'Rigor.Mortis'. You can call on him for backup if there's an immediate emergency, and otherwise I can provide you with credits, supplies and a few outfitted Sabres if you need spare ships. Let me know what I can do to help.
