Greetings, Mr. Binghamton.

Although we are not "in charge" of the Shipyard, OSI has a significant operation there, and we are members of the Confederation of Freeports, that's why this message came to my desk.

And I'm pretty sure I can answer your request too. Because the answer is pretty easy if you ask any Zoner: unfortunately we have to deny your request. The Nephlim is the most protected Zoner ship of all, more so than the Whale, even. It's a tremendous effort to build one, a mobile space city, so to speak, a Zoner exclusive ship, and only the most trusted captains are allowed to command one.

So, no, the Zoners will not allow one of our almost sacred 'Colony Ships', as some call them, to go to anyone's hands.

Sorry for wasting your time on this request.



Best regards,

David Starr
