I am Supreme Guildkeeper Nathan Archos. In absence of Guildmistress Loyola, I am taking over leadership and administration of The Core. It is an honour to make your acquaintance.
As Sentinel Hawken has finished putting forward the terms of cooperation, I will be taking over to address matters I am heavily involved in such as the Vault.
We have recently received a transmission from the Apahanta. Ezrael Vertiga is attempting to make an offer with us. To show you how committed we are to forming a partnership with Gallia, I thought I'd show you transparency and not go behind your back. Whilst you haven't been able to make much progress with him, he has unexpectedly approached us with some negotiations regarding the Vault and an access key that may unlock it:

We have the same allies and multiple shared enemies, mostly the Corsairs and the Order. When I took the Apahanta, the ship I myself funded, and a fair amount of people who where both loyal to me and didn't wish to fight the Zoners with me to defect from the Core, I didn't do it to fight the Core, and you know that. Cooperation in the past has shown fruitful for both sides and I believe there is no reason to fight each other. It would be a waste of resources. I request the Core's full amnesty for me and all the other Core members who left with me. They shall be welcome in Core space again, protected by Core's laws. No tricks. Additional to that I request docking rights for Yaren Station and Dagger Outpost, both only to be used in emergency cases as for example to assist or resupply and repair in combat scenarios.
2. I want to be present when the Core opens the Vault.
Knowing big parts of the backstory of this thing, I really want to know what exactly is in there. While I can already say it is at least not directly related to the Wild - at least nothing of my information is confirming that so far - I want to know what kind of technology is hidden there.
3. If there is loot to share, I want a fair share of it.
33% of what we find on the station as well as copies of the station's database.
If you agree with that, you'll receive a full report on what I've found in the data storage of a ship called the Titanic and a related smuggling outpost in Bretonia. This will include the code snippets I have in my possession. According to my information you will have no means to open the Vault without them.
It is very likely that The Core will be agreeing to these terms. If I were to make a guess, I would assume your vested interest in the Vault is because you too posses an access key, or something along those lines. In that case, if you were to cooperate with us and Vertiga, I would you gladly allow the Gallic Royal Navy to share in the spoils.
