Monsieur LaFlamme,
I can imagine, that this message is surprising in your eyes, coming with this layout. Je m'appelle Florence Michaux, I am Commandant de la Marine Royale Gauloise. But today, I am not going to address you as a member of your biggest enemy. I have gathered my thoughts a little and tried to read some lectures concerning the Council, needless to say, that you cannot get anything here that is not full of propaganda. Why I am even caring about such things, you might wonder... well, the Royal Navy is not the "good" side in this conflict, I am aware of that, I kind of always have been. We are the aggressor, we are the conquers. We are not the nice people and every time I get into any of my ships, I feel a bit sick. I'm becoming tired of it, of this strange routine, almost every soldier near me stopped asking questions or using their own brains. They turn into walking machines for the Roi. I tried to be one as well, I wanted to feel alive, though, I thought I am fighting for freedom, after all. What I wanted from you is information that I cannot get. I want to know history and thoughts, your history and thoughts. The Royal Navy cannot provide the truth about this, and I just want to read something that doesn't make my eyes roll. This is in no way an attempt to somehow infiltrate you, generic information that everyone should be able to have is all I want to have, that would mean a lot to me. I know, this sounds weird, and if I didn't make it sound clear, then just say it and I will make it clearer.

Commandant Michaux,
I admit I've been reluctant to respond for weeks because of several reasons: If your words are false, then it's a plot to lure me into a trap, if they are true, then you put yourself in great danger by contacting me through the Neural Net. Either way it would be safer to meet et converse in person on neutral grounds where forces loyal to the Crown can not obstruct honest talks. I would suggest Monte Carlo Freeport in Provence, although I'm open to any other suggestions of such a place as well.
Sincèrement,
Général Pierre LaFlamme Du Conseil

Monsieur LaFlamme,
I'm aware of the danger I am putting myself in. But I am taking that risk, I simply need to know. Monte Carlo Freeport seems like a fitting place for this, just tell me a date and I will make sure to be there. Alone.

Commandant Michaux,
If a meeting in La Gemme d'Istres at noon of next Saturday is fitting for you, then I'll make the appropriate arrangements. I'm certain almost a week should be enough for you to shake off uninvited stalkers, should you have any.
Sincèrement,
Général Pierre LaFlamme Du Conseil
