Hi.
I heard you are bringing all sorts of odd people into our inbox. Gaian Wine? Really? I'm not sure where did you get the idea to advertise our bewerages, but, we can't let our potential customers down now, can we? But, sadly, we don't have any products of our own! Who'd have guessed, right? Certainly not you, of that I am sure.
Lucky me that we had a project in the works, though. One that fits your silly antics just right. You see, the folks over at Skye decided we could use a little morale boost. Through alcohol, of all things. Disgusting stuff, but whatever keeps people happy. But, you know, they then discovered it actually requires effort, setting up the plantation, the distillery, working on it and all. So they gave up. But some supplies are already there, a room's prepped, even some blueprints stashed away in Skye's databanks.
Would you be so kind to go there and finish the job? Oh, of course you will. This is an order after all.

Subject: A project you say ...
Greetings Sentinel Flora,
I am sad to hear that you do not welcome my effort to promote our organization. I also am quite surprised that you blame the incompetence of your subordinates on me. Alcohol has been consumed by humans for thousands of years. Producing alcoholic beverages requires nothing more than time and knowledge. It eludes me how they failed at such a simple task. They had the knowledge made available to them. They just were not ready to spend the time to finish what they had started. But do not worry, I won't fail like they did and I certainly will complete this task.
You spoke of a plantation and a distillery. I will put them to use as soon as possible. Do not expect results too soon though. Patience is a virtue required to create good tasting wines and spirits. You don't want our potential new customers to puke while drinking our wine, do you?
A side effect of this project will be a boost to the moral of our troops as I am going to make sure that some of our spirits are to be delivered to them free of charge. Therefore I will require a dedicated squadron of men, who are willing to spend time and energy in creating the best spirits of Sirius.
