Greetings, this is Leon speaking.

I'm a Starflier who has travelled around Sirius, taking scans and surveying areas that have piqued my interest.
When travelling through the New York yesterday, I bumped into Commodore Edwards, of the Akhetaten.
I explained that my ship was capable of taking scans, and I'd offer to have one done as a show of good faith
towards the Navy.

I was hoping to get in touch with the Navy High Command and make a formal proposal. I had asked Edwards
to notify you of this, in case this transmission gets lost.

I'd like to work with the 5th, in a semi-official capacity. What I mean by this, is that I'd still like to fly off and
explore all other houses. But if you are ever in need of a scan done, I can certainly get that done for you as
quickly as I can. My Bustard may be slow, but I can get it to move rather quickly.

As a solo vessel, my power core can only do so much for me. So my scans are only going to be so accurate.
However, I'm still capable of delivering these packages to you. I'm not requesting any compensation for these
scans, if you were to accept my offer. In this case, perhaps a rain-check on compensation can be agreed upon?

I hope to hear from you soon. Godspeed.

PS.

Took me a couple hours to fish it out of the code, Christopher. Here's your West Point scan, as promised.

Greetings, this is Leon speaking.

Computer, repeat and boost last transmission.
Maybe the antenna on this Bustard is in need of an upgrade...

Greetings, this is Leon speaking.

I'd like to give you an update on my vessel's identification. The engineers at Norfolk Shipyard have given me a
maintenance check, and saw that the hull panels with my ship's name have been worn down. They have given
me the choice to have it repainted, or to apply a new designation to the hull.

My ship's new name is the NX-01.

Also, as a reminder, I'm still waiting on a reply to my previous transmissions.

I hope to hear from you soon. Godspeed.

Greetings, Leon

I would like to apologize for the delay with which your request got processed and I hope this delay will only be a one-time occurrence.

Getting to the matter at hand, after informing High Command of your intentions regarding working for the Fifth Fleet and after a few discussions that took place, the Admiralty has decided to decline your proposal of working with the Fifth. While I understand that you and your work may be dependable, for various reasons we are unable to provide you with a contract.

The coordinates you've wired to me have worked wonderfully so far, best of luck in your future meetings.

With regards.

Commodore Christopher Edwards
Liberty Navy Fifth Fleet

Greetings, this is Leon speaking.

It seems that your superiors have got better things to do than to accept a helping hand from a Freelancer.
We could have come to a beneficial agreement, but as things are now, neither of us will see that happen.
Thank you for your response, Christopher. Though I would have liked to hear it from your leaders instead.
It's at least good that the one thing I provided has worked well for you.

May we cross paths again, godspeed.
