We look forward to meeting aboard Bethlehem, and the fruitful merger of Canaan and IRG. Safe skies.
Greetings! I apologize for the extended waiting period. Me and my people were caught up in a... special job. Let's get right to business, shall we? He picks up a glass from his table and takes a swig of the white liquid, which was probably milk.
The contract you worked out seems fine as it currently is. Nevertheless, i would take the liberty to have a close associate check if there could be some legal repercussions we as a group would have to face as a result from the contract that we are currently not aware of.
What we are definitely looking forward to, ist that personal meeting you proposed. As your suggested date has already past - we take full blame for that - an appointment for a meeting in the near future would be the logical thing: around the 23rd of October 823 for example. He looks like he is trying to remember if there was something that he forgot.
That should be it. Looking forward to hearing from you.
