Well this is something I didn't expect to find waiting for me.

Well first of all, greetings Chloe. This being the first time we formally informally chat, I am Haruka Onigawara. Just Haruka is enough though. And I know that I could have skipped that part but it'd just have felt wrong.

Now, your request, piques my interest. Lets say that the less the houses have to say in the independents the better I like them. As our neighbours from a couple of systems over, both yours and the Xenos have done us a favour with your struggle for Ontario and as such I will gladly stand witness to this treaty. The freer the indepedents, the better it is for everyone and even more so the less infight there is between those that don't want to bend the knee. I'll be where I need to be as soon as I get the details.

One last thing, I hope you can excuse the slight delay in my reply. Some of our systems are still going a little poltergeist on us ever since Jericho got trumpeted.
