Your facility was detected upon the perimeter of one of our declared preservation zones. Due to the sensitive nature of such, we request you immediately disclose:
The identity of your operators. Who you work for. What purpose this facility holds. Your relationship to the Order, Core, Xenos and the Liberty armed forces (LSF, LN)
Failure to comply with this inquiry may result in your facility being forcefully dismantled. You have until tomorrow mid-day to respond.
My name is Rebecca Xircone, and you can call me Dr. Xircone. We apologize if we have our installation in one of your persevered zones, We had no idea about that information, We are a small group of researchers who are interested in studying several areas of the Kansas system. We are interested in studying the nature of Planet Topeka's atmosphere and already sent several expeditions to the gaseous planet and the primary results are full of good hope for finding new pharmaceutical and scientific formulas, that serve humanity and mankind.
The identity of my operators is freelancers and most of them are scientists and engineers of quantum physics and nuclear astrophysics. We have some pharmacists and chemists too. We are on the science side and serve no one, although we prefer the insurgency more than the Libertonian authorities, but that does not affect our work here. We prefer working with independent researchers. It is indeed a pleasure to deal with the Technocracy of Auxo since we know that your group works with science too.
We have no relations with the Xenos yet, but we have neutral relations with other surrounding factions. We have not communicated with any Libertonian authorities yet either. We prefer the Lane Hackers more than the Liberty Security Force but we have no hostility with any of them. We have no relation with the Order or the Core at all. We didn't contact those entities ever before. We have good relations with some Zoners as many others do. We are interested in having a good relationship with the Technocracy of Auxo if you are interested in sharing information and scientific results for the sake of humanity.
Let me know what is possible to do to have a permit from your group to continue our project here, And please, let me know if we can work together in some other fields of research than the atmosphere of Planet Topeka. We are also interested in the Anomalies field close to the Alien Gate here. Yes, we found it and we studied a big deal about it before we started our installation here.
Thank you for contacting us and I will wait for your answer as soon as possible.
Now you know that we do not like strangers meddling with things they simply do not know or comprehend.
I will cut to the chase. One of officers suggested your facility should move to the remains of the Insurgency station previously known as Mulvane. However, as the purpose of this facility is to disturb that site, we cannot allow the facility to persist. I would have offered for your place to move to the remains of the Mulvane, but it seems you are rather persistant on the idea of studying the gate.
I will give you a few options.
You can stay, but you must move to Mulvane and restrain yourself only to the studies of Topeka *and* pay a fine for damaging our preservation study.
Or.
You can leave and study another anomalous somewhere else.
If you choose to stay and we catch you meddling around there again, we cannot stand by and allow such to happen. Do you understand? You have already disturbed the site enough.
Now, I believe one of my fine officers relayed the notion of the status of contractors. We do offer such unique positions to foreign groups. Small steps first. We'll talk about that later after we deal with the problem that is your stations purpose.
Well the two options are very hard for me, but I think that you are leaving me no other choices, so I will pick the first option. The relocation is a very disastrous choice for us because I will lose about 7,500,000 credits which are already spent on the current constructions and another 10,000,000 credits for the relocation process. The relocation will require a lot of machinery to be brought from some nearby systems so I will need some time to coordinate the dismantling and the relocation processes. I already called for some engineers and they will be here in about 24 hours to initiate the processes. We will dispatch the engineers to check the Mulvane wreck location and scan the safest coordinates for the relocation.
I will focus the current research on the Planet Topeka atmosphere so no worries about the other fields for now. We are seeking full cooperation with the Technocracy of Auxo regarding the other fields of study, whenever possible and whenever you are interested. Those other fields will be inactive for now until we finish our main research on Topeka's atmosphere. That will require years to finish anyway.
At the current moment, I would like to know how much you want as payment for the violation of your preserved area which was done by us unintentionally and we apologize one more time for it. We appreciate very much your offer for aiding in supplies and we would be happy to use a hand. We will offer generous payment for your deliveries indeed. Let me know what you think and if there are any other regulations that we should follow so we can be ready for the relocation process. Thank you for your time and understanding.
The relocation process is in progress. We had to re-contract more engineers because some refused to work within the area of Kansas. They were afraid of some rumors concerning that place. Anyway, reconstructing one of our labs requires some rare materials we could not acquire easily. We wanted to ask you if the Technocracy of Auxo can supply us with those materials. We would appreciate such cooperation and business. The Quantum Outpost will definitely pay what your scientists require for those materials.
It is known to us that there is some kind of alignment of jump-holes somewhere in the universe which sends the ships going through to uncharted systems far away in this vast space. It also came to our knowledge that certain classes of ships can only use that synchronization of jump holes. We are interested in some materials that can be only achieved from those uncharted systems. The materials are x300 units of Reflective Lattices and x700 units of Organic Capacitors. Do you have the capability to get those safely for us to a certain meeting point so our hired hauler can receive them from you?
I will wait for your reply as soon as possible. I almost forgot to mention that I attached a map chart to this transmission, showing the newly relocated location of Quantum which is currently outside the preserved area of the Technocracy of Auxo.
Quite the ambitious move you have made with your business ventures.
Now, let's get straight to the point. I have an offer that you simply cannot refuse.
You and your company joins the Technocracy's banners under the scheme of association of scientific institutions, where-in you receive protection and joint collaboration projects and expeditions. You'll allow us access to the facility, as well as the storage depots as par of the scientific union of independent facilities. As per membership of this, it will require adherence to the diplomatic stances. Meaning, those who are hostile to the Technocracy, or those caught in efforts of sabotage or theft, will be barred. Such as the Nomads, Ageira, Liberty forces, Bretonia forces, Core, Order, so forth. And finally, you will also link up with our collaborators communication network.
Well, it is indeed as you mentioned, an ambitious move, but is that move bothering you in any way? ... I have the impression from your words that you are not happy about our group working with some certain technologies or equipment. Is that true? and if it is true, then why and what is the problem with that?...
Now we go straight to your offer that I cannot refuse, as you mentioned. I see that you are offering us to join under the banner of the Technocracy of Auxo and give you access to all our hard work and research. Not only that but we also give you access to our factories and our labs... Not only that but we also give you access to our depots and storage. So you are offering us to stand naked in the cold wind and share everything for free.
Adding more points to your offer, You are asking us not to deal with several entities and factions which as it seems, are your enemies. So you want us in simple words to be Auxo members and be under your command and your decisions. Also, fight your enemies and love your friends as far as I can understand your offer. You are offering all that for protection and joint collaboration projects and expeditions, So I would like to ask you some questions if you do not mind Ms Valentine.
What are you going to protect us from?
Why did you describe this offer as an offer that I cannot refuse?
Are you willing to take care of all our logistics needs by joining under your banners??
Are you going to share with us all your research and hard work in return too?
Are you going to give us access to your factories, vaults, and storage in return too?
Are you going to stop dealing with our enemies and be friendly to our friendlies in return too?
I think you forgot to answer our request for Reflective Lattices and Organic Capacitors, so?
I would like to remind both of us here, that we relocated the installation according to your demands and that cost us almost 10,000,000 s/c for the relocation process and another 9,750,000 s/c when we lost our progress with the main lab and had to re-do it all just because of the relocation/dismantle processes side effects.
In light of your answers Ms Valentine, I will be able to address the rest of our group and let them know if this is an offer that we can get mutual respect and business from, or if is it an offer that will cancel and delete our independence and identity. I will wait for your reply, and thank you for your time.
These terms are non-negiotable. Your little fun and games ends here today, lest we want to face the consequences of your reckless actions that endanger those around you. You are committing acts that simply draw too much attention, and are incredibly risky without any guidance, without appropriate quarantine, and with no oversight - there is no guarantee that this technology will not fall into the Nomads, or other operatives, hands. It was ultimately your own foolish decision to dabble into matters that do not concern you, after we previously warned you not to meddle with alien affairs.
Now. The scheme we offer you, is a collaborative one. You do not join the Technocracy, but you do become a representative in this cooperative of independent research facilities. Currently, there are three other members. You will be protected from forces that endanger your facility. Logistical needs fall under your jurisdiction, unless you wish to join with another facility, in which their administrators will take care of matters. Relocation is not necessary, but it would be a boon to house closer to the other elements. For now, you are better off in seclusion there.
The alternative to this, is something you will be far more devastated by. It is why we offer you a place to have your talents be put to use. Unless you wish to willingly forego all of your experimentation.
Haha... Dealing your enemies? And help your friends? Do enlighten me as to how a 'neutral' entity as you so boldly claim to be, have these outlandish ties to some unknown organisation -- who... seemingly aren't interested in helping you? Are you truly in any position to make such a demand?
Since you seem to be struggling with these terms, as generously provided by one of my workers, I will be setting a time limit until tomorrow midnight to decide on what you're interested in doing.
We all work better while under pressure. Best get to thinking.
[13.11.2023 18:28:26] BMF|Grab'nGold: what base?
[13.11.2023 18:28:32] A/)-Pixie.3: Funny man.
[13.11.2023 18:28:35] A/)-Pixie.3: What did you just deliver?
[13.11.2023 18:28:45] BMF|Grab'nGold: Im cvoming to get materials
[13.11.2023 18:28:51] BMF|Grab'nGold: not deliver?~
We found a lost dog trying to wiggle his way out from that alien contaminated den of yours. Quite the shame. And here I thought our associates spoke simple enough for you to understand what we stand with those who collaborate with our foes.
I suggest you pack up. Perhaps you'll finally understand what zero tolerance means.
