A high quality vocal recording plays over the speakers, saying in a deep, smooth voice and flawless accent,
"Hallo,
Ich bin ein privater Unternehmer mit Interesse an Ihren Faehigkeiten als Waffen Entwicklungsspezialisten. Koennte ich einem privaten Treffen mit einen Vertreter?"
"Hello,
I am a private businessman with an interest in your capabilities as a weapons development specialists. Could I arrange a private meeting with a representative?"
The message continued on, "I will be available in Rheinland for the next several days, and would like to discuss this in person. Please send the address and time for a meeting, reserved under the name Pearl."
Guten tag mein herr. I am Annelies Glatz, director of Daumann Arms Division.
We are interested in hearing your proposal, we will arrange a meeting with you.
Currently I am onboard the DHC-Munificent, supervising an operation in Koeln, if there is no problem with the location we will notify the crew and wait for your arrival, as I'd like to discuss this personally. However if the movig to Koeln is difficult we can arrange a meeting at The Ring with one of our representatives.
A tall young woman walked into the bay. She was dressed in a green suit with a golden Daumann badge on her right arm.
Guten tag My name is Anne Hensel. Welcome to the DHC Munificent, the Daumann family's personal liner and DHC's mobile HQ. Please follow me, Frau Glatz is waiting.
The pilot and the woman walked through the halls of the Munificent. The walls were made of white Marble, but that section of the liner was entirely dedicated to corporation business, and the real luxury of the liner was hidden from public view.
The woman made a gesture with her hand, pointing at a white metal door. She then palce her hand on a fingerprint scanner.
With a pleasant nod and smile to his guide Pearl entered the room, saying warmly "Ms. Glatz I presume." as he rounded the corner through the door. "I am called Pearl."
Perl was wearing a black business suit and dark green tie. Inch long black hair covered his head and the same radiant smile as he had given his guide greeted his host. It was easy to tell from the way he held his shoulders that this wasn't his usual attire. Holding out his hand in a friendly fashion he offered a warm handshake.
Anneliese said, with a smile on her face as she shook hands with the young man.
So, before we proceed, in case you don't know, Rheinland is going through a hard time now, but Daumann will be fine, as we virtually have more money than the Bundestag right now... Anyway we are here to do business right? How can we help you?
With a smile on her face, Annelies stared at the man, waiting for an answer.
"Of course, of course. This is why we have come to you for services. Rheinland needs every bit of business it can get, and Daumann has a reputation for excellence."
Pearl scratched his chin.
"Before I say anything, I trust that this meeting is cofidential?"
//I'm on intermittant internet for the next little bit; sorry if it takes an extra day or two to post.
All business offers and discussions are confidential, as a matter of fact, only the board of directors, my assistant, and the captain that granted you docking permission know you are here, and even then, only the board and I know what we are going to talk about.
Anneliese's assitant came in. She whispered something at Annelies, then left quickly.
Mein Herr, we have received word that the situation in Rheinland is getting out of control. Due to security reasons the Munificent was recalled to The Ring, I hope you don't have an issue with that. If you don't, let us proceed.
