COMM ID: Augustus Howe TARGET ID: Starfliers Organization SUBJECT: Survey Commission ENCRYPTION: HIGH PRIORITY: HIGH
xxxStarfliers,
xxxI understand that your organization seeks to maintain neutrality with as many parties as possible.
Given that, it's my sincere hope that you're willing to extend that same neutrality to myself and my crew. My name is Augustus Howe, captain and commander of one of the last spaceworthy capital ships of the Insurgent Navy. Assuming you aren't already dialing the Security Forces, I have a commission for you; I'm in need of hyperspace jump coordinates to the Munich system in Rheinland. I'm not sure what your prices are, but name it and we'll see if we can't do business.
Remember, time is of the essence.
xxxForever in service to Liberty and her people,
Augustus Howe
Commander, INS Klaxon
Insurgent Naval Forces

Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Augustus Howe, Insurgency Navy Subject: If I Must
It find it rather bothersome that I tuned my dashboard to reject any hyperspace vector analysis requests. We have others who are capable of doing this, but today I find myself without any tasks. So I shall oblige and take this upon myself to complete.
Apologies, my name is Albert McKenzie, research lead of the Starfliers. My ship, the Arcturus will fly from Tau-23 to Munich to gather the data requested. I've heard complaints about spending too much time in the Taus, so this trip to Rheinland may be for the best to keep our morale and work ethic high.
We do not charge for this service. As I do not watch the news, I do not know the status of the Insurgency outside of what I hear from the crew on the Freeports around Sirius. Keep the credits, as the information we gather is more valuable to my team. You shall hear from us again shortly.
Albert McKenzie, Starfliers To: Augustus Howe, Insurgency Navy Subject: Information Secured
The information has been obtained. Not too frequently we visit Rheinland, even if it's the outskirts. You should have been notified over the secure channel about the results.

xxxMr. McKenzie,
xxxThe coordinates have been received.
I cannot thank you enough. If ever you require heavy-duty survey tools in the future, the Klaxon may be able to be of assistance. Feel free to contact me over this channel in the event that your own tools ever prove insufficient. For now, I believe this concludes our business.
Godspeed to you and all yours.
