Atop a rock, within a cloud. A wyrm guards its hoard.
Allow me to extend a warm welcome, Watcher. I assume you've taken the time to adjust to your new role and familiarize yourself with our ways following your mindset integration. Perhaps the relative silence has confused you. Perhaps you thought we have forgotten about you. The truth is, we've been watching you with utmost attention. Indeed, we are seldom not watching.
Watching, and deliberating. What task would suit our newest addition best? I believe we've finally found that task. Your particular skills in commanding transport-class vessels and the related activities have led us to select you to spearhead a part of our effort to revitalize and stabilize our external economy. A duty, that you should most certainly not take lightly.
As from now on, you are the proud new owner of the "Shirogane Corporation". A bankrupt relic of times gone by; One that you will transform into a profit-generating venture. We will redirect a good portion of our laundered funds to your accounts. We will provide weapons for your security crews. And we will pass on our knowledge of resource deposits throughout the Edge Worlds. But how you accomplish the rest - is entirely up to you.
I think its needless to say that secrecy is paramount for this venture to succeed. The corporation's reputation is on the clean and legal side, and I expect you to keep it that way. But other than that, you have free reign in regards to how you conduct your business.
You will find more details about this venture at your new office on Planet Honshu [coord. vvx6-779]. It is a bit run down right now, but I am certain you'll get it back to operating condition in no time.
Do this well, and your rise towards the apex of the pyramid will be legendary.
A legend hides within us. Not out of fear, but out of malice.
The colour of silver is a blessing to me once again. I will take this task with utmost care, and lead this Corporation to the highest point in the dark society. The eyes of the close minded will see only what they wish to see, and those who see what they should not will see no more. The countdown to the day of revelation is at hand, and I shall speed the flow of time.
