To: .:j:. Junker's Congress // From: A. Brahms F. :: Sub: (In)formal Request

[Stefan]

Gute Nacht, meine Herren,

Being much an informal request as a formal one, I hope this message reaches you at an opportune time.

The name's Allan Brahms, not-for-much-longer in employment by the Interspace Commerce.

While I will admit I know very little of your movement - being from Rheinland and having worked on Kusari had this unfortunate consequence - I assure you my respect. Even with all the hardships, you stand strong in your work - just as I've seen in ALG and in the energetic populist Rheinland movements. That is something I quite frankly admire.

Could I be sure I wouldn't bore you with all the details of the reasoning behind this request I would do so, but to err on the side of kaution, I will provide you with the short version and the access to my records:

I'm quitting the corporate life. It's quite clear that I do not fit the bill of being a pawn anymore. I'll soon restate my ID, ending up with what I believe will be a Freelancer registration, and although that will allow me to work unchained by corporation policies, it will, however, revoke my access to ships of the larger sizes - and one of which I currently own.

The easiest way out would certainly be to buy a ship of a smaller size, but that poses a problem I cannot accept: I would certainly face regulations dictated by house politiks regarding the customization of the vessel, tracking, identification and cargo category limitations. Should I repurpose another kraft, however, rebuild, recycle and rely on a "less official" line of work, I believe I could manage it just fine. I hope you understand where I'm getting at.

I do not wish for charity, mein Herren, I know business is business even when the motives are fair, so this as much as an offer as any other. I'm looking for a few good men or women interested in helping me build it. There will be obvious compensation, one we can discuss about with your terms, alongside the chance of making a friend who doesn't stick to black and white.

I'll keep this channel open for anyone with the Congress ID. I'm certain more than half of you have a much deeper knowledge of the topic in hand than an old man with a PhD in Financial Management - and less than half of the other part is doubly willing to explain to him how shady his request actually is. I hope I was clear enough on my intentions, though.

Should you wish to talk, preferably over some Rheinbier, let me know. It'll be on me.

Cheers,
