"It is more than I was expecting to find. It seems the matter we found in those anomalies decays very rapidly, even without the singularity ripping panels off my hull. This trinket should fetch some kind of price with the scientist types, though. If I remember what that Zoner group said correctly, Hawking Radiation is a key to infinite matter and antimatter. An infinite energy source would be some kind of powerful tool in the right hands.

But power comes from credits first, and the tool is in our hands. I imagine there are a few science types around the place that would be willing to cut into their budgets to obtain this core. For the sake of, let's call it "negotiation table freedom", what sorts of assets or privileges interest you? Often times, credit value must be measured in position and asset value, to avoid taxes and suspicions and the like."

"Da, I've obtained something interesting myself, and I've been thinking of ways to make this process easier. I've heard from some Hessian veterans that the Naval Intelligence in Rheinland has a thirst for exotic and alien materials. All kinds of problem arose during the Civil War regarding Thuringia, "The Last Bastion of the Federalists", it seems.

Our trinkets can be bargaining chips for more expanded operations. I've seen a group of Her Majesty's Fortitudes in Omega 43 already, hunting out one of the Corsairs new battlecruisers for salvage, I'm certain the Buro does not want to fall behind. That desperation will make the mouths of their wallets loose. At the very least, I assure you I can secure a license for my Z-series Pitbull train and her crew, which would ease the work of transporting materials obtained from the frontier. I am well versed in the art of the Deal.

I will also be contacting other Tarancon Remnants, as well as some other Junkers I've worked with in the past in order to get more hands on deck. If this route with the Buro falls through, I have maintained a good rapport with some Outcast Dons through procuring exotic materials for them, and the Coalition as well. We'll make a profit from this, yet."

Meet me at Freeport 5

Ave junkers,

We made an accord in the deep Omegas for the mutual prospect of finding valuable materials in the frontier where we crossed paths. Though you want something more "alien" I have found something deep from the dark frontier. There is something I pulled from a unknown research vessel that was burnt out from a radiation burst. The crews last act was sealing some kind of radiation particle samples into a core. The vessel itself must have had it's shields down to capture their prize before the burst fried their electrical system. I've had an old colleague from my Core Main Fleet days to analyze some initial readings. He claimed it's a miracle of science and those scientists sacrificed themselves for the betterment of science. I don't trust my contact to keep it secret, and my own begrudges with my past employers may come picking for my bones in time.

What matters is that it's valuable. We need to find a buyer for this thing before it burns out or rots my ship from the inside out. I'm stashed out on freeport 5 for now. Meet me here when you've got something.

Ave junkers,

Right now it seems we're tied to port for the moment. Seeing as how we already have treasure each to hold. With those profits, I see a need to expand our horizons. I have a theory the key to harvesting the anomalous matter haunting around the alien structure can be solved with missiles, or at least something with a blast to nock out the spirit holding it. We'll have to amass plenty of matter to make for losses on the venture back. My predictions from our first expeditions count 10 mins for the half life of this alien matter to be rendered inert. More pillow stock means less loses should we find ourselves "delayed" returning from our expeditions.

A bigger ship will need a crew as it seems, and they'll be needin their own motivations covered. A gunboat with missiles strapped to every port on her sides might do the trick. I can copy the chain codes from the Buccaneer, under a clean Core IFF.

But,
The fragment minerals of Freya are still lock behind the bedrock crust. If I can crew an archon class, we can procure every valuable of the frontier either by mining or taking it from expeditions who get "claimed" by the deep omegas. We've both seen that all flags fly this far from the houses and there may be a fortuitous opportunity to take advantage of someone else's hard work. Or investigating an easier way out of Fischer itself. All I see in this new frontier is a rich environment of exploitation. We can make it ours for the taking.
