The video feed flickers to life, revealing a french girl seeming only just past nineteen, with long black hair almost to her waist. She sits in a high-backed chair, tapping her fingers on the arm of the chair, in deep thought. After a moment, she speaks.
Bonjour, Sirians.
You probably don't know me, and...probably never will. Have better things to do, pass it off as a trap.
It happens.
But the truth is I need something that you can offer, and I can't retrieve myself. Though you may think it rather menial or unimportant, for me...it is of utmost importance. I require optronic and robotic components of a kind that cannot be found in the Gallic cluster. Of sirian make. If you can gather these items for me, You will be rewarded...hmm...lets say, three million in Sirian credits. The items required are:

100x Optronics
50x Robotic Components
30x Quantum Multiplexors

And, for those of you who might be more daring, there is a two million credit bonus for these items:
50x Counterfeit Software
15x Blood Diamonds

Oh. And there may be other rewards if my tests are successful...you can contact me on this channel if you intend to ship the components. Drop off point is storage bay 17-D on Reunion, in Orkney.

A million dollars isn't cool. You know what is cool? A basilisk.

Really? No takers? I would've thought that amount was enough to peak your interest. Or maybe I'm searching too close...?

Greetings again,

Your requested amounts of optronics, robotic components and quantum multiplexors has been delivered. I was unable to obtain the other items you requested. I have attached the relevant log files below

I trust that everything is satisfactory and the delivery time quick enough. My XO Catalina personally oversaw the offloading at bay 17-D on Reunion station.

I also assume that you are aware of the Sirius accounting system in place. Payment may be made to "The.Diomedes".

Please let me know if there is further business we could conduct. I am always interested in the happenings of Gallia, though little information makes it through.

Cheers,

Bien, Bien Mon ami!
Your efforts will not be forgotten. I will make sure that the parts will be put to good use. If you wish, you could meet the result of your work, in Gallia proper. But I understand if it were too dangerous for you to travel.
In any case, the funds have been transfered.

I will be sure to contact you if any further events arise.

Ms. Estelle,

The transfer came through without complication. Thank you.

I would indeed like to see the result of such imported material. I have flow through Gallia once before on my own, I should be able to do so again. Also, if delicateness is required I can always travel in my personal fighter craft and leave the crew at Reunion.

That said, the rumblings I've heard about Gallia, the conflict and the royal navy worry me greatly. I can't place the feeling and I've little or no evidence to support it. The more information I can gain, the better I will feel.

I've also manages to speak to Council administrators on Reunion, ensuring they have registered The Diomedes as a ship under my command, I was not commanding her the last time I passed through.

As it is said where I grew up, beunas suerte.

Regards,

Joao da Silva

Alright. I hope your reputation with the Gallic Brigands isn't too bad, because the items have already been shipped again. Montbard Base within Gallia, if you know where it is. If not, I'm sending the co-ordinates in the following databurst:

[Databurst]

Hopefully I'll see you soon.

We are shipping out from Reunion now. I will contact you again when we arrive.

I have not had many interactions with the Brigands in past, but those I have had have been amiable.

See you soon,

I'm free whenever, Monsieur. You'll find a map of the base on the nearest terminal. Take the elevator to sub-level 15, and head down the hall. I'll have someone waiting for you.
