Hello?

To be honest with you I almost deleted this message as it looked like spam… still might be. Only thing that stopped me was your identification. I definitely did not flip a coin to decide... ahem anyways.

Orex Industries isn’t a handy man, do all kind of company. We are very narrow in our expertise and we like to stay in it. However, as your message is very short and vague, I have nothing to go off of. Please do explain your needs further and I will let you know if Orex can assist you.

[Despite some initial concerns that the Orex Zoners would choose to simply bin the comm and thus force a meeting through less than favorable means, the surprise reply paid off, for now. Therefore, this mysterious MND contact had little reason to do more than shoot them another recording, keeping his identify just a secret, one a single grasp away, but still a secret.]

Mein,

I'm reaching out to you because, out of all nearby stations operated to full capacity, yours seems to be in the best shape -- both in terms of commercial traffic and general outlook. Out of all factions nearby, you are also only of the few with a neutral standing that we can walk up to and ask a few questions here and there without being blasted to dust. It's simple, really: you've done a splendid job maintaining your base so far.

And why shouldn't we reward you for it? Ah, but, this is also our offer. Listen and listen well; inside the Palau cloud, some 15 clicks south from the Omicron Pi jump hole, there lay 2 stations, both operating with a freelancer identification code and both working around the clock to chip away at the resources you so dearly need also. That said, here's the deal. You go in there and find out more about who operates them, why they're there and whatever plans they have for the future. Summarized, you go in and ask them about their ancestry line all the way down to the first settlers in Delta. For obvious reasons, we can't really do this ourselves.

What do we offer in return? We can be either your first customers, not for Iridium, of course, but we can also offer you a blank check of several millions. This goes without saying, but I'd also put a few good, sugary words up with my superiors so that the rest of the agency knows who she's truly dealing with.

So, what do you say, Zoner?

Hello again,

Orex spends a lot of capital on keeping Tokelau a state-of-the-art facility, I’m glad to see people take notice. We continue to see growth in the iridum market, so I can only imagine even more traffic we as move forward.

One of Orex’s goals is to give back to our local community both through our humanitarian projects but also by being good neighbors. So, it strikes me that you wish for us to… spy on them. This is quite the tall ask for someone so far away. And as far as I am aware Orex Industries does not have any sort of relationship with you or any other sort of dealings. I do know of another Rheinlander that reached out with interest of purchasing some hardware, but I think Jenkins handled that… and my god I’m not asking him for anything.

With all of that said, hitting our credit flow numbers is very important for us… so perhaps there is a chance but I will have to pass this along to the higher ups. This is far from our norm. If you could explain your interest in our home system and those stations that could help. Also, what do you mean by being our first customer? What exactly did you have in mind?

Mein,

It's fairly simple. You have a base that loads up on Iridium quite often; they do too. Eventually, there's bound to be a conflict of interests. If not now, then when will you have another such opportunity to kick them while they're down? Of course, I don't mean anything bad will happen to them, but the main reason we've an interest in knowing of their operations is due to the increased trade going to and from the Omicrons towards Rheinland. We want to pick our customers with great care, as not doing so would be disastrous, especially in matters concerning Iridium used for shipbuilding projects. You can do one-two humanitarian projects here and there, but you should also remain aware of the treacherous void that is Omicron Delta. You don't, like I said before, want to upset the wrong people.

But we have a high opinion of Orex, so that is of little concern. Ah! Not to forget... Yes, I did say that we'd like to purchase some of the equipment you have to offer, if any. Well, here's your chance to present your higher-up with the first customer!

Hello,

It is true, we do have a few competitors in the upstream iridium market in our local area. However, there is also a reason Orex Industries has exploded into the scene, there was a major gap in the market for high quality Iridium supplied at significant quantities. I believe we just recently crossed half million units of Iridum refined and nearly all of it sold. Quite an accomplishment! Our competitors cannot boast such numbers in the time frame we are talking about.

I can guarantee to you that Orex can meet all your iridium needs for any of your ship building projects. We take quality to heart, and only the highest quality material leaves our facility. I cannot say the same from the other suppliers.

How about this, I am so confident in our quality I will push a request up the chain to dig into your above-mentioned facilities and their iridium refinement process. I am confident you will see the difference.

In terms of other equipment… you are in luck! Orex has recently opened up a new division specializing in advanced weapon manufacturing. These weapons are far from ordinary, and are made to order to meet the high standards our customers demand. Please see me below attachments for further information.

Hello,

An update to your request for further information on two of the nearby space stations.

We can start with Delta Mining Corp station. It is a station owned and operated by Pheonix Zoners but it appears they were not the original constructors of this facility. Further digging would be required to find the original owners. The facility has been at least partially operational for several years with the primary goal of selling iridum. With that said, the facility turned away one of our freighters looking to purchase some iridium. It appears they have the facility locked down. However, even if our freighters received docking permission, our analysis shows it is very likely the base has very little refined iridium. This is mostly based on our analysis of scanner data of our miners and the activity heading towards DMC. With that said, I am confident that Orex Industries can easily exceed their iridium capacity by at least an order of magnitude.

Now for number two, GMC-Trading station, I have some exciting news to share with you. An Orex representative talked personally with the owner of the station, a single freelancer. Orex leadership decided that the facility could be a valuable asset and purchased it on the spot. GMC is now a subsidiary of Orex Industries, and our engineering and qualities teams are evaluating the station to bring it up to Orex standards. For the foreseeable future Tokelau Smelter will remain the selling point for high quality iridium and the headquarters of Orex Industries.

Please do not hesitate to reach out for further information or if you would like to make a purchase with us.

Mein,

Thank you for the information provided so far. If it is at all possible, I would like to maintain this channel open to share additional information on the status of these bases, if not for the sake of cooperation, then at the very least to prevent any confusion in the future.

Oh, by the way. There's a lot ongoing right now in Omicron Delta, I am sorry if my comms got in the way of any of Orex's business -- I did not mean to. Regarding the payment, I am afraid it'll have to wait as I changed plans. Instead of delivering the credits over the Neural-Net, I'll send someone on my behalf to meet up with one of your agents by the end of the next week. I'll be sure to inform you in advance.

Until then, keep in touch. Dellingr out.
