Subject: A request.
Hola, senor. You probably don't know me, but I need your attention for a moment.
I am aware of your exploits in Kusari, to that end I need you to do something. There is a postal box on Freeport nine, marked 1509, access code is 'Farnum'
Inside the box is a storage disk containing several sets of Co-ordnates. I need you or someone in your charge to go pick them up and keep them. Hold onto them until I or someone else can contact you, you will be given further instructions pertaining to the co-ordinates. I cannot say everything at once until I've confirmed you have received this message and the co-ordinates.
You've piqued my curiosity, Juan. It sounds like a game to me, go here, do this, wait for that... in a different way, it sounds like a waste of time.
You're right when you say that I don't know you. Bearing this in mind, before I pick up these coordinates from that box on said station, I'd like to get to know you a little. Perhaps to understand why you want me specifically to fulfil this task for you.
And since I recieved your message, mister Maldonato, you can spill the beans on 'everything'...
Besides, we've all got time whilst space-flight is a scientific impossibility.
Well, senor. I am a Corsair as yourself, but I have been abroad some time, working with the Gaians.
However, my ship was stolen and I've been trying to work my way back to Crete. But there's some very weird and interesting stuff going on around here, stuff I think we must discuss. The first set of co-ordinates are a special rendezvous point I used to use, once I get a new ship, I will go there and we will need to speak in person.
The second set of co-ordinates were given to me by one of the Gaians. Something to the north that she didn't elaborate on. All I found was a minefield when I tried to go there, so I will need your help, and better star charts when I can get there.
I've also come into possession of several strange artifacts and scrambled pieces of data which I will need you to look at. It may prove valuable, but I will need the Brotherhood's connections and information records to decode them.
Please, reply quickly. I may not be the only one after this information.
