Leto. Commander Atreides. However you want me to call you.

I know. You will ask me where I am, where have I been and why am I bearing IMG Comm IDs with me.

Well, I have been at Taus, trying to keep my crew, this old Zephyr, Glaucus and those Guild guys safe. I thought they were fighting a cause worthy, I thought they were trying to resist an imperialistic regime and defend one of their main installations. However I have seen I was entirely wrong. They are led by a madwomen. Antoganizing more than they can chew and now they are on the move against Crayter it looks like. Crayter kept them safe for so long, liberated numerous bases of Guild, risking metal and limb to keep Gallic influence away, only to be greeted by this? I can not participate in their mess and it looks like the only choice I have is going the full circle back.

I have done numerous mistakes and I have done even more while trying to fix the previous ones. However now I see one more chance to prove my worth. I will regain my honor, if not my rank or my posessions within New Thesselonica. I ask to be given a fighting chance once more. I know you do not trust me fully. However I know one thing. I belong to Crayter and I am ready to pledge my allegiance to my home, my brothers and sisters at the military, my nation and to our Admiral, Amanda Townley, eternally.

Encrypted part to Enigma

You have changed name and rank, however I know you are the very same person I fought side by side, no matter what becomes of you. You command the fleet now and you know my uses, my history and my abilities. I have given you a home and a chance to continue when you were under 17th, now it's your turn.

Richard, out.

Commander Leto speaking.

Michael? Is that you?

How? When? You have been in the Tau with a Zephyr and not joined the fight against Gallia? You hid beyond the IMG neutrality and let us, your brother and sisters, to die in this war?

For what? For them joining forces with the Gauls that invaded Tau and killed so many of us and Sirians?

You should have joined the local Crayterian Combat Unit when we were fighting them. You are a Warrior.

Yes, you have done many mistakes but the Republic of Crayter is offering everyone a second chance but this time I want to keep my eyes on you. Present yourself and Glaucus to Tau 44 and enter in high orbit above Borneo. On arrival, all of your crew will need to register on Minato Harbour and you must place the ship under Crayterian officers. Your crew will be allowed to join your ship after they register and they will server under a Crayterian Officer, not under you.

You, my sir, I want you near me. You shall take residence on Atreides Enclave on Borneo, Main Mansion. You shall live there and you will be under my Family. They are loyal Crayterians and they will help you to once more find your place within our Republic.

As for your career, you will serve under me on Zephyr Triton. You shall serve as my 3rd in command. Protect our Nation and do your part and you will be promoted to 2ic, and that is purely because I know you are a good officer, but your loyalty must be proven.

If you agree with all of these conditions, let me know and I will make the proper preparations.

Leto,
I want to thank you for such an...opportunity and give a chance to me. As for Glaucus, I believe we could use some of this old girl's tech on the Triton and the only problem is we are arriving with a skeleton crew. Most of it's crew was complemented by IMG technicians and engineers. Most bailed ship and used escape pods to crawl back to Holman. The men remaining are loyal to me and Crayter. They will respect the decision of command, so say we all.

I am thankful to be placed under your command. We will push back the madwomen and her legions she dares to call Independent Miners...
Richard, out.
