To: Jerard VonCloud, Livadia Shipyard | From: Kyu Akibara, Freeport 11

Jerard,

don't know whether you're a Livadia or still on the White Fox. I hope you didn't celebrate your first kill in a long while too hard, alcohol tends to have nasty side-effects. Remember how Paul barfed all over the floor in that pub on Canaria?

Anyway, I contact you with a little question. Our auxesian friends are doing a very great job here at Freeport 11. Last night, when Brettonias' Ashira got shot down by the Order, they repelled them and saved our butts at the Freeport. I offered them money as compensation. They asked me if we could offer them something else. Matter of factly, they want to build a new ship, and they need a shipyard for that. I know Livadia is fully stretched right now, now that only two of the drydocks are operational (I think OSI should invest in repairing the lost drydocks, by the way).

Maybe however we could push some schedules around. This L-person of Auxesia said they wanted to construct a destroyer of the Thresher-class. The small dry-dock should suffice completely, the Thresher is actually rather small. Do you think this would be possible?

Also, Maria Nemesis of Freeport 14 invited us to the annual christmas-or-get-the-eff-out-of-here party in Alberta. Don't forget the trash gifts.

Your wit is as sharp as ever.. You know i had to pay for that entire floor to be redone?

Now, its not gone unnoticed that the Auxesian have been doing a damn good job and such a reward is deserving. However i have my own concerns before we even begin to move around schedules.

By what I've seen the Auxesian's like to use a Hybridisation of Nomad and Human tech, personally this bothers me, the Order are pissed at us enough already last think i need is a reason for them to put Livadia into their crosshairs and fiddling with Nomad tech will do just that.

There's also the other matter of blueprints, we do not have any copies of the Thresher Schematics aboard Livadia, although now that the relationship between us and the Core has improved it may be possible to get a set.

Again my main concern is the Nomad tech though, so i need to know exactly what it is they want to do with the Thresher, if they just want one built to standard issue then im sure i can make that happen but i need details before i can commit Livadia to the task.

Perhaps ill get Paul some Liner Sick bags this year.

Jerard.
