Dear Mr. Reeves,

It's a shame that we didn't get a chance to speak yesterday. I was rather impressed by your performance against the Nomads who had invaded our territory yesterday. Lt. Commander Steiner had also given a recommendation as well. I have forwarded approximately 15,000,000 Credits to your account for your trouble.

However, I also wanted to speak to you about hiring you for your services on retainer. Her Majesty's Secret Intelligence Services are always looking for good intelligence assets to recruit, freelancers for whom we pay a fee to go collect intelligence for us or sympathisers from other groups to do the same.

I understand that you currently work for the Bounty Hunter's Guild secondary arm. If you feel that there won't be a conflict of interest, it would be good to arrange a meeting with you so that we can get to know you a little bit better, if you're interested that is.

Sincerely,
Adrienne Perry,
Secret Intelligence Service, Bretonia

Mighty generous of you, considering I could just turn your offer down right now and simply take the money, but I do feel like the Nation of tea-drinkers has grown on me.. just a little.

By your accent though, I can tell you aren't Bretonian, then again, neither am I. Pretty smart of you to figure out my name by scouring through the Bretonian Contractor database, I'll give you that. Just one thing though, I've never been much of a 'rat' or someone capable of being a 'spook', but I do one thing decently and one thing alone. I'm a mercenary, plain and simple but of course that does give me unique knowledge of things, which I'll gladly share.

In addition, if you want anyone tracked down or something investigated in a more.. private fashion, you have me on speed-dial now. Name a time and place, Adrienne.

Dear Mr. A. Reeves,

You're right, I'm not Bretonian. I figured serving Bretonia was the same as serving Liberty as their national interests currently align rather conveniently.

I've got two assignments for you. It's been quite a while since the Corsairs buzzed our territory. The Defence Intelligence Staff are predicting a spike of Corsair activity rather soon based on historical projections and other such statistical data analysis. Naturally, SIS would like to delay any such attack so we'd figure we'd hit their funding. As you know, the Corsairs heavily participate in the export of illegal artifacts and SIS would like to deploy you so that you may intercept any of their shipments. Please record the names and relevant time stamped photographic or video evidence of each artifact smuggler you encounter and we'll provide you with 4,000,000 credits per name. Destroy their ship(s) and there will be an additional 4,000,000 bonus attached per kill.

In addition to that, there is also a certain individual I'd like for your to investigate. I was contacted earlier by a ship with the callsign "Shipbreaker". I believe the conversation transcript posted below will give a few more details.



I had asked this person if he or she would like to meet at a neutral location where we would be able to confirm that he or she is not contaminated by Nomad materiel but unfortunately they had cut the communications channel and we were unable to triangulate its location. Such nomad weaponry cannot be allowed to exist outside of the hands of the Houses or the Core, so we need to tread carefully here. If you are able to locate this person, we need to know who they are, scan their IFF and ID if possible. I am particularly interested in knowing whether this person is simply paranoid, or infested by Nomads. If you find them, get to know them and determine if this person is infested, or just downright paranoid, and if they have sold the aforementioned weapons or not. If they are infested or participating in any unlawful activities, or possess the Nomad guns (and won't willingly relinquish them), then you may open fire upon the target. We will compensate you with 20 million credits for the destruction of this vessel.

If you require any additional resource for the completion of your assignment, such as a false or cover identity, then please
let me know as soon as possible and I shall arrange them for you.

Sincerely,
Adrienne Perry,
Secret Intelligence Service, Bretonia

I guess I'll get to work as quickly as possible, the first contract seems simple enough. Record and burn smugglers that're dealing a little too close for comfort with the corsairs. While the second is slightly more complex, in my experience, it's more than likely that this person may have gone ahead and changed their identifier by now to avoid your scorn, but for your sake and my want of the reward money, let's hope they've been stupid and not done so.

I'll keep you informed of my progress here.

Quite the light-show you got me into today, Adrienne. Hope you got out alright. In any case, I managed to snap you something that I think you'll like, I'll try to get more for you soon. The pictures in the attachment I've uploaded is of a Junker by the way, if that wasn't clear enough with all the rust.. see for yourself.

Found your arms dealer in Omega-49, led me through a jump-hole up to some odd base past a mine-field. Too many gold-diggers around it, so I couldn't get close, but I got you all the pictures you could possibly need. He practically posed for me.

I've uploaded them for you.

Dear Mr. A. Reeves,

We're forwarding the evidence over to the relevant authorities. With all the chaos going around Bretonia at the moment, we don't need someone illegally profiting off of the illicit arms trade. Your payment has been transfered.

Keep finding us more names for that list of artifact smugglers Mr. Reeves, we intend to forward that information over to our allies to build a better relationship with them.

Sincerely,
Adrienne Perry, Chief of Staff
Secret Intelligence Service, Bretonia

[Subject]: Next Assignment
[Encryption]: High

Dear Mr. Reeves

I'd like to hold your previous assignment as we have newer priorities for you to deal with at the moment. It's been a while since we've collected any intelligence on the Cayman System. As far as we're aware, the Coalition has launched an invasion of the system to take it over from the declining Reapers of Sirius organisation. I'd like for you to go there and conduct a general scan of the system for the BAF'S Defence Intelligence Staff to analyse. The total pay for this assignment will be 28 Million Credits. There will be an additional bonus of 4 Million Credits per Coalition/SCRA kill as well. They've been performing a lot of raids on Bretonian borders recently.

Sincerely,
Adrienne Perry, Chief of Staff,
Secret Intelligence Service, Bretonia

Loud and clear, I'll go start getting my hands dirty now.. Can only hope it doesn't end up with me facing off with a defence fleet. An invasion force is no joke, so I doubt I'll get a chance to pick off assets, if I do, I'll go for the jugular.

I'll keep you updated.
