Esteemed Grand Admiral,
I have no idea if this has reached your ears, but the Liberty Navy has recently moved into the system and has already downed another base located within Kansas (named Inis-Mona).
I've no intention of seeing our peaceful existence threatened by a bunch of imperialistic idiots riding battleships as if they were damn horses. It may be much to ask, but we request your aid against the Libertonian push, in exchange for docking access to Key Axial and our pledge to help whenever your group may need it.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Cook

Do you know for certain that the Liberty Navy intends to destroy Key Axial?
We ourselves beseiged Inis-Mona mere hours before the Navy arrived. Unfortunately, we had to withdraw before the task was complete, as we faced overwhelming firepower from numerous Dreadnought-class vessels. This base was home to a group of bloodthirsty Outcasts deemed a threat to the well being of Liberty's citizens, and it is of no surprise to us that the Navy moved against it in a similar manner to the Legion.
I would almost dare to say that I am surprised by this turn of events, but we both know how brutally territorial the current Liberty military regime is.
While we do not currently have any interest in becoming part of the Kansas Alliance, Key Axial could prove to be a valuable staging post for the Legion's warships.

Esteemed Grand Admiral,
You and me both know the ridiculous and needless lengths to which the Liberty Navy will go to assert their dominance over those who can't defend themselves. When they send an entire warfleet to take down a piece of floating metal, we both know who's compensating here.
I am not requesting your entry into the Kansas Alliance. Far from it. What I'm offering here is an opportunity for you to gain a staging ground against not only against Liberty incursions, but also against the system of Virginia. In exchange for your aid, we would be happy to grant you access to Key Axial, provided you maintain at least a decent level of civility while onboard (as I have no doubt will be easy for men of your station).
Sincerely,
Jonathan Cook
