Introduction
Salutations to you from The Order, Senora.
Skipping rather pathethic exchange of words that flew out of Loyola's mouth, worth about as much as Gallic Frank in Coalition's Duma, this cheap sensation of brief five minutes fame made us aware that your entity is to some degree opposed of Nomad influence within your state. Wanting this Core Guildmistress dead is also a plus in my books.
The Order is unaware of any Maltese government save for entities aligned to the National Council, neither you or the Malta's Overlords bothered to notify us. However the internal politics of Malta is of no importance to me, so long someone somewhere is killing Nomad supporters across widely understood sovereign territory of Malta. Our contacts in space scarce, failed to yield any kind of aggression as both sides followed the terms of the Omicron Beta Armistice. Consider us not an opponents of you or Malta itself but benevolent foreign agency seeking to purify the universe from Nomads and Core alike who no doubt are grave enemies to your sub-species.
Consider this also your chance to make yourself known to The Order Overwatch and tell what you have to say. If any of ships under your command are actively involved in attempts to assasinate Loyola (or any Nomad host to begin with), we would be inclined to provide more... direct support to your plight.

Hola.
I'll be frank. It's interesting seeing the Overwatch contact us after such a long period of time after Sehranna's use ran out. While it's nice to see that the Order still maintains the desire to remove the Nomad threat as we do, that plight as you say is second now to our conflict with Gallia. I won't say no to any support from the Overwatch on the field of Nomad invasions and the like, but as it stands the Republic has opted to try and distance ourselves from that fight. The Order's decree with the National Council, as much as I despise them, is a boon that I honestly cannot argue with, and with Gallia's increasing movement into territory they don't own, our focus has been shifted towards them instead, and mainly our homeworld.
In short, I won't refuse your support against the Nomads, and in fact I'd welcome it, but in our position, we're just not militarily capable of taking on Gallia, the Nomads and our falsely led brothers and sisters in the National Council. As it stands, we're not even sure if we're capable of taking on Gallia, but with our support from Crayter, it's more doable.
I appreciate it, but your offer may be null as we're not fully focused against the Nomadic threat. We have some forces, but any official conflict we take against the Nomads will be Loyola and her fanatical regime of infectees flying alongside her.
For Malta and her children.

Introduction
I get your point, Colonel.
The Order had numerous violent episodes involving Gallic Royalists but waging war on them does not lay in our immediate interests due to proximity, skirmishes mainly resulted in our ships opening fire in self-defense. Therefore I can not offer direct military support against their current regime and also I cannot blame you on having set priorities as you had given your homeworld is located much closer to their borders. Nevertheless, we have to keep up on various Maltese formations political aligments, if only to monitor spread of the corruption. Stability of Malta also greatly enhances this... purification process.
The line is open to NC and you alike concerning threats common to us both, keep that in mind and farewell.
