To Cerulean of the Reaver Mercenary Company,
You reminded me about your mercenary company. Never expected this ol' Insurgent rig to pack a punch and score some kills on some juicy targets, especially the Navy. Now I've made some bucks from the Technocracy; they seem to be done with their operation in Kansas.
Now, are you interested in meeting up and having a talk?
Here are my kill records. I hope I'm not some meat fodder as you thought of me.

Mr Reynolds,
I'm not sure how familiar you are with the mercenary trade. While I can, at times, appreciate well-taken guncam shots of ship destruction, you will find that sending them to your employer, the Technocracy, would be a more fruitful endeavor. I'm certain they'll reward you handsomely for your services.
On the occasions that you and your crew assisted the Company in the Technocracy's recent assault on Quantum Outpost, your help was welcome, and greatly appreciated. Knowing the Auxesians' rates, I presume our joint operations have also helped to substantially fatten your coffers.
Should you choose not to retire, and instead to continue honing your craft, I am sure that we will meet again sooner or later. Take care.

I've already sent them to the Technocracy. They've paid me millions now, 7.2 million to be exact. To be honest, I find the mercenary trade a worthwhile opportunity to do some stuff.
In fact, I aim to continue my newly-developed career towards working with you. We shall meet as expected. Also, if you can name a time and place, that would be appreciated.

Mr Reynolds,
I was alluding to the near inevitability of a chance encounter in the future. The Sirius sector may be vast, but the intense conflicts to which us mercenaries are often drawn are usually concentrated in specific star systems. I do not, currently, see the need for us to meet at a predetermined time or place. Or for us to meet at all, in the near future.
You see, the Company values versatile pilots. Those who are competent in snub- and larger craft. Part of the appeal for contractors to hire the Company lies in our ability to operate -- swiftly -- virtually anywhere, and the mobility of smaller ships is essential for this to be true. As of right now, I know you only as the -- quite capable -- pilot of an Inquisitor. Your recent assistance was appreciated, but that alone is not a reason for our professional relationship to develop further.

He sighs. Given it's been only a week since we first knew each other, compared to the years between your members, I think it's understandable.
For now, I'll try to probe and seek new opportunities to hunt, should a future conflict arise somewhere. Hopefully this time, we shall be on the same side.

So, we did meet earlier than expected. I've used up my earnings for a brand-new "Condor"-class gunboat after flying the long way to Rheinland and the Omegas after you and the other Reavers told me about something going within the Omicrons.
You did promise me something about your Company around two weeks ago. Care to rope me in for some opportunities that may be brewing up within the Omicrons?
