Guten Tag, caretakers of Freihafen Eins.
I'm Erik Averbach, the captain of the ALG heavy mover "Danzig". You might know me, as I travel the space
around your Freeport quite often. I'm contacting you with concerning news.

As I was taking a short break around Freeport One a group of pirates came into Omega-3 from Cambridge.
Before I could pick up my way again and fly into Bretonia, the group of pirates, known as the "Ghosts",
were already around the Freeport. It would have been suicide for me to try going where I wanted to go, so
I stayed close to your base. They had one pirate transport, Ghost~of~Koxinga, and three small bombers,
Ghost~of~Didrik~Pining, Ghost~of~Sao~Feng. and Ghost~of~the~Pirates.

The first thing that happened was that they cut a lane near the Freeport and pirated a vessel that was flying
from Aland to the Freeport for an exorbitant amount of credits. As he didn't give in to their threats and
probably tried running, he was blown up by them without any mercy.

After the destruction of that trader they returned to the Freeport perimeter and tried pirating me. Luckily
it seems one of them who went towards Omega-7 earlier was attacked and therefore the others left to
help him, leaving me sitting alone with the transport of theirs near the station.

Watching the situation I kept quitly sitting there until at one moment the pirate transport requested
permission to dock - and to my astonishment was granted such! I hope you see the problem here.

Now that the way to Cambridge seemed clear, I continued my travel. A Hessian sabre followed me...
Gut, anyway, this is not important to you. The Ghost ships docking on Freeport Eins is a major concern
though. Please do not allow such dangerous Personen to use your base to stage their piracy from!

I am sure you do not want to have any bad consequence because of this either.

Viele Grüße,
Erik Averbach
