Howdy there, Congressfolk! I'm hopin' this message finds ya'll well.

I'd like to make a case of sorts to ya'll, based on current events taking place in both Bering and Bretonia.

Recently, the Congress received a communication from the Alster Union in the form of a claim. This claim has them figurin' that they own exclusive rights 'ta the Military-grade Salvage left over from the war between Rheinland and Liberty.

Now, I ain't normally much've one 'ta go causin' trouble amongst piratical sorts. I'm usually A-OK with makin' contributions 'ta yer odd-ball pirate tryin' to make a livin' amongst the lanes.

But I feel that this situation is different. Trafalgar lies in shambles, an' Gallia is 'ta blame. This gives us a strong reason 'ta stick it 'ta the Gallic war machine by supplying the Bretonians with some Military Salvage from Bering.

We owe it 'ta Trafalgar 'ta give Gallia some grief, an' we've a second motivation, too - By shipping Military Salvage to Bretonia, not only will we be coming off as helpful to their war efforts, but Liberty ought'a be pleased, as well. Y'see, it probably won't be long until Liberty gets interested in moving some assets into Bering and retrieving some've that salvage, an' I'll bet my bottom credit that Liberty's gonna claim that the Military Salvage in Bering is theirs - Which, it technically halfway is, bein' that half'a the salvage's probably Liberty hardware, anyways. So, instead've riskin' ourselves bein' caught in illegal salvage operations, why not take some initiative and let Liberty know "Hey, we got this for 'ya."

By taking a stance against the Alster Union, we stand to gain Bretonia's and Liberty's favor. This in turn'll likely get Liberty an' even Deep Space Engineerin' on our side too, possibly even the Bretonian Merchant Navy! I'll admit that Battlegroup Harmony might be a minor issue, but they're pro-Liberty at heart, and as long as we make it clear to everyone that we want to haul that Salvage from Bering to Bretonia, that means we're taking an anti-Gallic stance, which in my mind is a win-win all 'round!

In short, my vote is to tell the Alster Union that WE are the salvage experts, not them. This'll likely get them to target our salvage boats, but we ain't no strangers to a scrap. In case there's doubt, we'cn partner up with DSE to further drive the point home that we're gonna be gettin' things done, whether the Union likes it or not.

I spoke with Nick Ramsey about this, and he gave me permission 'ta share our conversation regarding the recent turn of events. Take a look!

Spoiler

If we take a stance against the Union, I'm fully prepared 'ta reach out 'ta Deep Space Engineerin' an' Bretonia's Merchant Navy 'ta see if they'll help us in both the salvage an' haulin' of the hardware in Bering. Gallia is causin' a mess fer Junker, Bretonia an' Liberty alike. It's time we cause a mess fer them, and dang any second-rate Union scrappers that think'r gonna get in the way've that.

What say ya'll?

Do we play along with the Alster Union an' let 'em take our money - Our dignity?

Or, do we show Sirius that us Junkers are the ones to go to when it comes to hazardous salvage?

Thank ya'll fer ya'll's time.
