Good day Sir Mishima, Ed here. Thanks again for your help back there in Hokkaido. I managed to get things clear with my reputation as we agreed. Just not on Barrier. I actually ran into an old mate from college who advised me to head to Sigmas for that, since you can barely find a good reputation expert these days in. Anyway, now I am landed on Kamakura for a resupply and refuel. We agreed that I am getting a job here and there. I would gladly hear it out now after all that hassle in the borderworlds, sonce I can't get enough of it. Meet me on New Tokyo, I'll be on my way there shortly. Bar is named "Kagaya", can't miss it, craziest place arund I dare you, at least as I was told on Kamakura. I am just getting to know Kusari, you see, an interesting place for sure.
See you then!

Subject: Your Job
Konnichiwa, Edo-kun.
I have already introduced our little meeting to the bosses of the Association. As for your job, you will mostly assist me in operations at the moment. As for the wage, you will be paid upon any escort duties made by [HA]Mimasaka, the Big Dragon-class vessel of mine. You are also free to offer services for other associated vessels, flying under [HA] designation.
As for our enemies, be aware of Junkers, GMG and other unwanted guests. They might not like you flying an obvious IFF and the fact you are hired by the Only and Rigteous Hogosha Association. But, as I said, will be hired mainly for the escort duties. Sometimes, you might be ordered to spy around for potential Junker threats inside Kusari and around its borders - but would not engage into active combat, unless [HA] vessel would be in danger.
Also, I am glad you are happy with your new engine. Of course, I knew you would be, because it is a superior Samuran technology, that no other house - or Kishiro - can match with.
