Ms. Claire Chandler,

It is a pleasure hearing from you again, even though the circumstances are not as brilliant as they could be. However, given recent political and military developments in the Taus, I think we can also say that not everything went wrong.

Anyway, to get to your topic: The Guild will gladly accept you in its ranks.

However, we cannot have the Achilles join our ranks for the simple reason that this ship is way too well-known in the GRN. Such a move would put the Guild in diplomatic trouble, something that we cannot risk in a position of weakness inside the still occupied Taus.

Nonetheless, I would like to make you an offer: the Guild is always looking for capable and experienced commanders for our Guild Patrol or Guild Defense Vessels. These are cruiser-class ships of the Thanatos or the Sagarmartha class.

The Guild would like to offer you a commanding position on one of these vessels if you are willing to take it. I am sure the Guild could profit greatly from your combat experience and the way that the Crayter forces engage in capital ship combat. That way, I think I can justify such a move in front of the Guildmastery with relative ease.

Let me know what you think about this.

Jack Henderson
