Sender: Agent James Skirka To: SIS Control
A number of curious events have unfolded in recent days concerning the Corsairs both of The Brotherhood and of a relatively new group known as DTR. Preliminary contact has been tentatively established with both groups through chance encounters. The first was with a pilot of the The Brotherhood known as ''Nina Rodriguez'' who, after a brief encounter earlier during the day returned to Cambridge where I ran into her again. After a brief scuffle she invited me to talk, expressing a desire to know more about Auxesia, claiming she was no friend of theirs. An arrangement was struck where she would provide information to me concerning Auxesian operations she may encounter in return I would provide her with the same. During our exchange another individual made themselves known, flying under the alias 'Moonmoth' this man identified himself as Edwin Pennybrooke, records indicate he was once associated with our predecessor agency, the BIS. Contact is pending.
Secondly, the group known as DTR was encountered in Omega-49 where, after a rather unfriendly introduction, agreement was reached regarding information exchange on Nomads. Contact is pending.
[19.11.2022 13:35:51] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Poole seems livelier than normal these days
[19.11.2022 13:36:11] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: I rarely come here.
[19.11.2022 13:36:36] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You strike me as someone who really is only interested in one thing.
[19.11.2022 13:37:10] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Is that so?
[19.11.2022 13:37:32] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Lets be honest sweets, you didn't come to Bretonia for the food.
[19.11.2022 13:38:05] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You came for a fight, and for whatever reason you didn't smoke me yesterday, now today I hold some of your interest.
[19.11.2022 13:38:45] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Yesterday I was on my guards. I felt a trap but at the end it ended nicely.
[19.11.2022 13:39:05] [SIS]-James.Skirka: So today?
[19.11.2022 13:39:46] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: You probably catched my attention. Who knows. But right now, I want to know what you know on those Auxesia.
[19.11.2022 13:40:04] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Ask your questions
[19.11.2022 13:41:13] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: How do you consider them? Are they the most dangerous group we can meet?
[19.11.2022 13:42:28] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Dangerous is relative. You're dangerous because of your skill
[19.11.2022 13:42:38] [SIS]-James.Skirka: they are dangerous because of what they know and what they want
[19.11.2022 13:42:45] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Yes, in short, they are.
[19.11.2022 13:43:09] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Why? Partly ideology, partly who they work with
[19.11.2022 13:43:48] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: You see, each time I have encountered one, weird situations come.
[19.11.2022 13:43:57] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Like what?
[19.11.2022 13:44:10] Moonmoth: Er....hello.
[19.11.2022 13:44:19] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Yeah...g-day..
[19.11.2022 13:44:26] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Once in-
[19.11.2022 13:44:44] Moonmoth: I don't mean to butt in. Were you having a private conversation?
[19.11.2022 13:44:45] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Who...are you?
[19.11.2022 13:45:05] Moonmoth: A resident of these parts.
[19.11.2022 13:45:09] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: *She seems clearly irritated.*
[19.11.2022 13:45:26] [SIS]-James.Skirka: That doesn't narrow it down. Your name?
[19.11.2022 13:45:33] Moonmoth: Edwin Pennybrooke.
[19.11.2022 13:45:49] [SIS]-James.Skirka: That name sounds....strangely familiar
[19.11.2022 13:46:23] Moonmoth: That's likely because- well. Probably shouldn't go into details on some aspects of my past with...spectators around.
[19.11.2022 13:47:14] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Well, you see, I was there first. Wait your turn.
[19.11.2022 13:47:28] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Mister Pennybroke, I'd be much obliged sir if you would...kindly give us a few minutes to sort something of a...
[19.11.2022 13:47:35] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Personal nature, out.
[19.11.2022 13:47:56] Moonmoth: Of course. If you're really curious, you can probably find something about me in old BIS archives.
[19.11.2022 13:47:59] Moonmoth: Very, very old archives.
[19.11.2022 13:48:02] Moonmoth: Good day!
[19.11.2022 13:48:10] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Thank you sir.
[19.11.2022 13:48:11] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Adios.
[19.11.2022 13:48:54] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: So... in Sigma-15, a weird ship was there and not only that but an Auxesia too.
[19.11.2022 13:49:04] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Come with me for a moment my dear.
[19.11.2022 13:49:44] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Define, weird
[19.11.2022 13:50:20] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Something as amalgam they said? Well, the ship had nomad weapons and weird transponding.
[19.11.2022 13:51:04] [SIS]-James.Skirka: There are....whispers, nothing proven, nothing solid, but the story goes that Auxesia had advance technology because
[19.11.2022 13:51:09] [SIS]-James.Skirka: they made deals with Nomads.
[19.11.2022 13:51:25] [SIS]-James.Skirka: That's the story, it's conveinient but not really provable
[19.11.2022 13:51:57] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Odd technology, odd company, odd rumors.
[19.11.2022 13:52:19] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Heh. Now I can have a good reason to kill them in the future days if I see one.
[19.11.2022 13:52:33] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Do the Corsairs deal with Auxesia?
[19.11.2022 13:52:41] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: No. Big no.
[19.11.2022 13:52:50] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Order?
[19.11.2022 13:52:56] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Core?
[19.11.2022 13:53:10] [SIS]-James.Skirka: We've seen them in the Omicrons often enough.
[19.11.2022 13:53:48] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Core no. Order, I don't know. It's not to me to say if we do deal with Order.
[19.11.2022 13:54:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You know revenant?
[19.11.2022 13:54:38] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: I saw this one several times.
[19.11.2022 13:55:00] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You know Sapphire Raven?
[19.11.2022 13:55:07] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: No.
[19.11.2022 13:55:19] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Same person.
[19.11.2022 13:55:31] [SIS]-James.Skirka: She's the leader.
[19.11.2022 13:55:42] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Or as close as they have to having a leader.
[19.11.2022 13:56:07] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Then, it will be my priority target.
[19.11.2022 13:56:24] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Why are you so concerned about Auxesia?
[19.11.2022 13:56:28] [SIS]-James.Skirka: What did they do to you?
[19.11.2022 13:57:47] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Let's say I don't like them because that Revenant's presence makes me sick and well, they always talk bad of our people.
[19.11.2022 13:58:01] [SIS]-James.Skirka: They talk bad of everyone.
[19.11.2022 13:58:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Trust me, Director Steiner has had much slander
[19.11.2022 13:59:36] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Look, you want to get back at Auxesia?
[19.11.2022 13:59:43] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You want to hurt them?
[19.11.2022 13:59:50] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Pretty much, si.
[19.11.2022 14:00:14] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Follow them. Anyone they deal with, anywhere they go, conversations, rumors, photographs
[19.11.2022 14:00:41] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Information is their weakness.
[19.11.2022 14:00:54] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Pass is along to me and I'll pass what I find along to you.
[19.11.2022 14:01:31] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Sounds like a deal.
[19.11.2022 14:01:43] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Well then Lady Nina.
[19.11.2022 14:02:11] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I shall pass what I find along to you. Was there anything else?
[19.11.2022 14:02:44] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: No. It was all I wanted.
[19.11.2022 14:02:59] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Then I shall bid you farewell.
[19.11.2022 14:03:15] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I'd ask for a kiss, but I think I'll settle for my life.
[19.11.2022 14:03:23] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Tough choice all the same.
[19.11.2022 14:03:31] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: heh...
[19.11.2022 14:03:39] Nina,Rodriguez[TBH]: Until next time.
[19.11.2022 14:03:53] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I eagerly await next time.
[19.11.2022 10:48:48] DTR-Sombra: Identify yourself.
[19.11.2022 10:49:17] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Certainly. James Skirka, Intelligence Officer, Her Majesties SIS
[19.11.2022 10:49:26] [SIS]-James.Skirka: How do you do?
[19.11.2022 10:49:45] DTR-Sombra: What are you doing in our teritorry Bretonian?
[19.11.2022 10:49:53] DTR-Sombra: you far away from home
[19.11.2022 10:50:03] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Passing through, dropping these lads off on my way.
[19.11.2022 10:50:09] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Not that far my good man.
[19.11.2022 10:50:14] [SIS]-James.Skirka: May I ask who you are?
[19.11.2022 10:50:34] DTR-Sombra: You must not be a good intelligence man if you dont know who we are.
[19.11.2022 10:50:53] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Forgive me, the Nuances of Corsair society are not known to many.
[19.11.2022 10:51:19] DTR-Sombra: What about our raids in Bretonia?
[19.11.2022 10:51:31] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Bretonian, you are not welcome in our space. State your business.
[19.11.2022 10:51:36] [SIS]-James.Skirka: What of them, exactly?
[19.11.2022 10:51:38] DTR-Sombra: Intelligence man.
[19.11.2022 10:51:46] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Oh, three of you!
[19.11.2022 10:51:48] [SIS]-James.Skirka: My my.
[19.11.2022 10:52:01] DTR-Sombra: Drop our pilots amigo.
[19.11.2022 10:52:07] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Certainly
[19.11.2022 10:52:19] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Please do be kind enough not to shoot while my shields are down
[19.11.2022 10:52:22] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius, Hombre... Don't bandy words. He'll twist you around with mind games. My uncle told me all about the SIS.
[19.11.2022 10:52:25] [SIS]-James.Skirka: That would be rather unsporting.
[19.11.2022 10:52:49] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Who would your uncle be, if I may ask?
[19.11.2022 10:52:53] DTR-Sombra: All of them signor.
[19.11.2022 10:53:12] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Forgive me sir, I don't see any other Corsair citizens in my hold.
[19.11.2022 10:53:18] DTR-Sombra: Good man.
[19.11.2022 10:53:19] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Do you refer to the Nomad remains?
[19.11.2022 10:53:38] DTR-Sombra: What sort of intelligence are you gathering here signor?
[19.11.2022 10:53:53] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Here? None. This is not my area of interest.
[19.11.2022 10:54:09] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Bretonia gave up on this system when we left, and it soon became too hard to operate in.
[19.11.2022 10:54:24] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: He's telling the truth.
[19.11.2022 10:54:52] DTR-Sombra: Bretonians always lie. If he told me the sky was orange
[19.11.2022 10:54:58] DTR-Sombra: I will not trust it
[19.11.2022 10:55:01] [SIS]-James.Skirka: May I ask whom I have the pleasure of addressing?
[19.11.2022 10:55:19] DTR-Sombra: At least he is polite that one.
[19.11.2022 10:55:30] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: I am Melius of the Corsair Imperio. You will not get my family name from me. I will not contribute to your logs.
[19.11.2022 10:55:50] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I understand, a pleasure Master Melius
[19.11.2022 10:56:07] [SIS]-James.Skirka: //terribly sorry, I'm operating like your char is male.
[19.11.2022 10:56:14] DTR-Sombra: He called you ''master'' *chuckles*
[19.11.2022 10:56:21] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Is it not so?
[19.11.2022 10:56:50] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: In your dialect, probably. Young, unmarried male... Right?
[19.11.2022 10:57:21] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Correct, although strictly speaking since you are older than ten, I should still refer to you as sir.
[19.11.2022 10:57:31] DTR-Sombra: Melius we got the advantage, should we take him? Or pirate him.
[19.11.2022 10:57:37] DTR-Sombra: We need to bring haul to the Executor
[19.11.2022 10:57:49] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Now now...why there is no need to turn this violent.
[19.11.2022 10:57:51] DTR-Sombra: Signora Nagash would be proud.
[19.11.2022 10:58:08] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Hombre. I don't like bandying words with this Bretonian. But operatives are rarely rich...
[19.11.2022 10:58:25] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Perhaps I can offer...a compromise of sorts.
[19.11.2022 10:58:26] DTR-Sombra: They get paid a lot, no?
[19.11.2022 10:58:44] DTR-Sombra: He is living it with the majesties probably.
[19.11.2022 10:58:49] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: How about we each exchange one piece of information and go on our way? Long as it's not too classified...
[19.11.2022 10:59:07] DTR-Sombra: What compromise?
[19.11.2022 10:59:09] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I propose an addition to your offer sir.
[19.11.2022 10:59:23] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: I am reluctantly listening.
[19.11.2022 10:59:37] DTR-Sombra: I am eagerly ready to shoot.
[19.11.2022 10:59:45] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I shall happily meet you at either a freeport or a neutral location, of my own free will, if one would be willing to listen to
[19.11.2022 10:59:46] DTR-Sombra: But lets hear it.
[19.11.2022 10:59:51] [SIS]-James.Skirka: A possible exchange of information.
[19.11.2022 11:00:01] DTR-Sombra: What sort of information you would have?
[19.11.2022 11:00:14] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Denied. We talk here and there are NO Corsican traitors.
[19.11.2022 11:00:15] [SIS]-James.Skirka: That depends entierly on what information you are seeking.
[19.11.2022 11:00:25] DTR-Sombra: Neutral location.
[19.11.2022 11:00:29] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Allow me to explain, in brief
[19.11.2022 11:00:29] DTR-Sombra: More like neutral ambush.
[19.11.2022 11:00:37] DTR-Sombra: where he springs his agents
[19.11.2022 11:00:41] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I seek not the information of your fleets or society.
[19.11.2022 11:01:00] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Certain...blue coloured fiends however.
[19.11.2022 11:01:08] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Now I understand.
[19.11.2022 11:01:10] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Well now that poses a problem for us.
[19.11.2022 11:01:29] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Ok, I think we can see eye to eye on that a bit better.
[19.11.2022 11:01:49] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I will happily exchange what information we have, provided the director agrees of course.
[19.11.2022 11:01:55] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I'm sure he will.
[19.11.2022 11:02:14] DTR-Sombra: How about an upfront payment of 1mln pesos for starters.
[19.11.2022 11:02:21] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: We have a common enemy it seems.
[19.11.2022 11:02:38] [SIS]-James.Skirka: A common enemy that became suddenly far too common for our liking sir.
[19.11.2022 11:03:14] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: I will tell you upfront. I have seen this enemy up close. But I will not exchange anything without approval.
[19.11.2022 11:03:28] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I understand completely.
[19.11.2022 11:03:28] DTR-Sombra: The Executor will need to hear this.
[19.11.2022 11:03:40] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Exactly, Hombre. You are dead on the money there.
[19.11.2022 11:04:14] /givecash dtr-sombra 5000000
[19.11.2022 11:04:14] [2022-11-19] 11:04:14 You have sent 5.000.000 credits to DTR-Sombra.
[19.11.2022 11:04:18] DTR-Sombra: I scanned his ship, nothing posing serious threat.
[19.11.2022 11:04:25] [SIS]-James.Skirka: There, now we can be friends again Sombra.
[19.11.2022 11:04:26] DTR-Sombra: Got your money operative.
[19.11.2022 11:04:26] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Let me collect your "current" IFF and ID for our records.
[19.11.2022 11:04:56] [SIS]-James.Skirka: May I ask, do you have a relationship with The Brotherhood?
[19.11.2022 11:05:18] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Done. Thanks for the co-operation. I can guarantee that I will report this to my superiors.
[19.11.2022 11:05:26] DTR-Sombra: We know of them yes.
[19.11.2022 11:05:44] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: I'm not certain how, but I'm sure they will have means by which to contact you if necessary.
[19.11.2022 11:06:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: You can always contact the Service Directly if needs be, Director Steiner will probably be the one to reply.
[19.11.2022 11:06:37] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I am always avaliable however
[19.11.2022 11:06:41] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: No communication from a Corsair will get through without clearnace codes.
[19.11.2022 11:06:51] [SIS]-James.Skirka: *Laughs*
[19.11.2022 11:06:52] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Sir
[19.11.2022 11:07:14] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Intelligence... Of course. *facepalms his helmet*
[19.11.2022 11:07:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: We are the SIS, we often have dealings with...those whom the Government might disaprove of.
[19.11.2022 11:07:35] DTR-Sombra: I like the world in black and white.
[19.11.2022 11:07:42] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Alas it is not so.
[19.11.2022 11:07:43] DTR-Sombra: Shoot bad guys, raid and pillage.
[19.11.2022 11:08:06] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: Sorry Hombre, so do I. But my Uncle warned me that this is not the case.
[19.11.2022 11:08:07] DTR-Sombra: Make sure the Imperio stays strong.
[19.11.2022 11:08:16] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Gentlemen you have been more than accomodating, I thank you for your time.
[19.11.2022 11:08:21] DTR-Sombra: Survival is the name of the game.
[19.11.2022 11:08:31] DTR-Sombra: Well, he did pay.
[19.11.2022 11:08:34] [SIS]-James.Skirka: I shan't keep you any longer.
[19.11.2022 11:08:36] DTR-Sombra: And we got our pilots.
[19.11.2022 11:08:45] DTR-Sombra: Guess you get to live another day.
[19.11.2022 11:08:52] DTR-Sombra: Good luck signor.
[19.11.2022 11:08:54] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Much obliged to you
[19.11.2022 11:08:58] [SIS]-James.Skirka: Cherrio
[19.11.2022 11:09:13] DTR-Ephemeral: Melius: I would say "Take Care" but instead... Just don't die except to us.
