Rear Admiral,

I trust that the transmission about the re-introduction of Task Force Akhetaten into duty has reached you. Once an idea of my own that was approved by Fleet Admiral Sophia Cleveland, now one that I am in a position to approve of myself - I see the current state of things to be optimal for such a re-introduction.

Of course, this transmission does not serve the purpose to inform you of what you already know.

Instead, I wish to forward an invitation towards you. In the spirit of coordination between our Fleets, and in the spirit of gratitude for all the efforts you put into Project: Akhetaten, I officially request your presence in the Task Force - not only on the vessels that make up the Task Force, but on the Akhetaten herself. The least I can do for the Admiral responsible for Project: Akhetaten's success is allow her to see the ship in action.

What do you think, Rear Admiral?

Greetings,

I did see that notification and it's good to see the Task Force being revived in this manner, but I do have to say this was entirely unexpected. I do understand that the project to get the Akhetaten to where it is was extensive, but I didn't imagine you would offer me this opportunity. In all honestly, I never figured I'd see the inside of the completed ship, but I'm honored you'd afford me command of the vessel from time to time.

Likewise, the fleet will be launching the new class of battlecruiser in the near future, the Helena-class battlecruiser. I'd like to invite you to the launching of the warship, I have a feeling it will be the first step into a new age with it's upgrades and modifications.

Regards,

Rear Admiral,

It is an opportunity that I felt is my duty to offer to you, Prower. That being said, the Akhetaten you'll be walking inside of is not entirely what you expect it to be.

To elaborate further, ever since our transference to the Forty-Sixth Fleet various changes took place in the Project. The biggest change came after long discussions between myself and the other members of Command, and it regarded the warship's size and function. The blueprints were downscaled and what few parts were already created had to be converted to match the new size restrictions. Some already-built parts underwent minor work in order to fit the new schematics, while others had to be completely scraped and re-built from scratch.

After everything was re-done, the new Akhetaten-class Prototype Battlecruiser was ready for construction. You will likely recognize most parts of the ship on the exterior, as we've kept almost all of the features that were developed with the Fifth. The interior, however, is largely different to what the initial blueprints depicted.

She's a sight for sore eyes, Prower, and I cannot wait for you to see her.

As for the Fifth's first Helena-class Battlecruiser, I firstly have to say I am very proud that the Fifth is continuing to develop new vessels that will aid the Libertonian Armed Forces, and I'm also beyond happy knowing that the Fleet is still going strong. Secondly, I will gladly accept that offer.

May the Akhetaten and Helena class Battlecruisers spearhead the Libertonian fleets.
