My name is Liam Byrne, official Ambassador of the Independent Miners Guild. I am contacting you on behalf of the communication that Miss Nilin Laroux, representative of the Maquis, and I had over the course of the last week, as it has gone into a direction that needs to be discouraged ASAP.
Since the Council is one of our secret allies, you should know better than anyone else that we do as much as we can to hurt the Gallic government. We might not do it via violence and direct attacks, as we are not an army after all, but with our own, more subtle methods, most notable our convoys we organize to assist our friends. This is something the Maquis doesn’t seem or want to understand, though.
The first mission we did for Miss Laroux and the Maquis in order to show we have the same goals was a simple delivery. It was finished by our convoys in less than a day, which was quite an accomplishment by our side, to be perfectly honest. But of course, Miss Laroux wasn’t satisfied.
Next, she wanted us to sabotage an Outcast Installation, of course under penalty of violence against us if we do not comply. This was the point when I decided enough is enough. The Guild is not a terrorist cell, and will never commit such attacks, even if it was against the Outcasts. We don’t even have the personnel that would be suited for such a job.
I don’t know how much the Maquis is willing to deliver on the threat, but the Guild decided the best idea now is to contact the Council. Maybe, you are able to bring Nilin Laroux and the whole Maquis back to their senses again. Hopefully, together we will find a good solution for this problem. We shouldn’t fight each other after all, as this would just strengthen the Gallic government.

Bonjour Ambassador Byrne,
Two of our allies having a seemingly pointless disagreement is quite concerning et counter-productive regarding our efforts against the Crown. Merci for contacting us, I'll see what I can do in order to get the two of you on more friendly terms. Keep me updated on any future incidents, s'il vous plaît.
Sincèrement,
Général Pierre LaFlamme Du Conseil
Général en Chef Du Conseil
As you wished, I'm hereby going to update you about the relations between Nilin Laroux's Maquis cell and the IMG. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out to better, rather the opposite.
After a few more threatenings towards the IMG and me personally, I decided to finally deny her orders and tell her to come back to us again as soon as her attitude has become more friendly - which is something I should have done far earlier, to be honest. We believe a conflict now might be inevitable, so we hope the Council will assist us in this struggle as much as possible.
