To: Bretonian War Cabinet

Greetings, esteemed members of Bretonia War Cabinet. My name is Clarissa Fairchild and I’m addressing you on behalf of a new joint venture of Ageira Technologies and Deep Space Engineering, Cold Lake Consortium. The Consortium aims to combine the best from the two corporations for one ambitious goal: improve Jump Gate technology so we can establish direct connections across distances insurmountable for conventional Jump Gates.

We are proud to announce that the first stage of our Hypergate project was successful. Ageira scientists developed and verified fundamental principles and designed the Jump machinery. DSE engineers built the Experimental Jumpgate, tested and proved that it is working as expected.

The next stage of our project is to establish connection to the remote system beyond the reach of conventional jump technology. Given special relations between Republic of Liberty and Kingdom of Bretonia, we decided to propose to the Bretonian War Cabinet that the second Hypergate will be built within Bretonian space. If the project will work as expected, this will also give both Houses a tactical opportunity in fighting the common enemy - Gallia.

Therefore, we request permission to conduct a survey in Bretonian space to find a site suitable for construction of the second gate. We will appreciate any suggestions based on analysis of security situation within Bretonia. We are also ready to comply with terms and conditions you may come up with and provide any additional information upon you request.

Sincerely yours,
Clarissa Fairchild,
Ageira Innovations
