Greetings Admiral Jacob McIntire,

We were just setting up a draft transport schedule for named commodities when I exchanged words with Fleet Admiral Michelle O'Brian. I am very disappointed of the way business is done. My grandfather would turn in his grave as great merchant and diplomat if he would hear this.

I do not want to place you in a weird position. But I want to say that we had a very valuable cooperation and table talks thus far. I think you are the kind of leader with integrity and I appreciate that.

I hope we meet again and so whilst enjoying a drink,

Yours sincerely,

Aquila
