Hey boss. I'm adding something to our separate stockpile of shinies. Twenty-Five had a Zoner surrender some shiny trinket. Picked it up on his behalf and...it is shiny! Don't know what we'd do with this -- looks just like the other stuff we have, really. So I just threw it in with the rest of the proverbial artifact pile. Let me know if anyone needs it.

I think I broke our zero-grav cargo lifter carrying this, by the way. Someone place a requisition order for a new one, please! Hugs and kisses for the brave person filing the paperwork.

Hey, One, you won't believe what we found today. We caught Rick with his pants down in Cambridge and a Strip Club on engines. We had our share from both, as per usual. Except, uhm...can I ask you a direct question? Do you think the Agent from Stulingen Unit would be interested in some fine women? His name was Cristoph, I think?

Yeah, so...Twenty-One got himself some company now. I think it's best we move his girlfriends somewhere safer. You know...where there's not a certain Five lurking about. I don't want to witness that kind of a dispute.

"We can take them off your hands. Interest for them does not come from me directly, but from others above. Fret not, they can provide a far greater purpose than simply a prize. Benefactors. Powerful benefactors."

"Bring them to Kaarst, if yourselves do not have requirement or use for them. More details will be given upon your arrival, should you choose to do so."

"I fought tooth and nail for these reputable entertainers. Don't misunderstand me, I wouldn't want to have them in the reputable cargo compartment for much longer. However, a little more than a firm handshake would be nice."

"You know what, screw that. I'll take them over before they unionise. I can't stand the noise much longer, I can practically feel it in my molars."

Alright, everyone. Some time ago I spoke with a Bundschuh pilot known as "Civil Servant" -- one of the more 'open minded' people operating in Rheinland and occasionally outside of it. I can only assume Four has entertained the man until he finally committed to delivering us some medical supplies who are now shared with our kin on Basel Rock.

'The Platform' proved that they can bend a little in our favor, meaning there's loot to be taken without having to break a sweat. All of you: keep an eye on them. Make sure they continue to believe we're some downtrodden pilots struggling to stay afloat.

Attaching the list of received supplies now -- use them sparingly.

Solvent, find your way to the bar on Basel Rock when you get the chance. I want you to do something for me. The same goes for you too, Pariah.

Charlatan, we're going out on a hunting trip next week. Find your best forged identity for the Sigma region. I need someone I can moderately count on.

Arsonist is in charge while I'm gone. Don't burn the house down, will you? Our superiors wouldn't like that, especially now.

Understood. I'm just wrapping up some business on Kaarst.

Is this at least something you can explain to me now? Or do I get to be surprised when I make it to that sorry hovel of a star system plagued by Bunters?

Understoood. I will arrive shortly after finishing some business within the Omega Sector. Is there something I have to bring with me?

You'll know the details when you arrive. Don't bother bringing anything fancy, you will have everything you need here. Courtesy of the Salvage Crew and Tixtla.
