As you may have noticed, I am not Mr. d'Autoine. Though as of yesterday, I have been voted in as his replacement due t' his sudden departure. He is alive and well, so not t' worry.
Regardless, I felt ta need t' contact you directly so you do not think that ta Confederation is no more or something drastic has happened. Quite ta opposite. As it stands, we have absorbed a few new stations into ta protectorate of ta CoF, including but not limit t' Bethlehem Station and Sparta Station. Some changes regarding administrators, but for ta most part, everything is moving along nicely.
Regardless of all that, all of us are joyous in hearing of your well-being, and look forward t' seeing you involved in more affairs of ta CoF. Please keep us updated, and I hope we will speak in person soon.
