To Interspace Commerce from The Apostatas

[Commander Crucible]

Buenos Diaz Raku Yagami,

My name is Lanzo Walker, General of the Apostatas and head of all operations including those of the Commerce division of whom, your pilot miss Inoue had contact with.
It is a true pleasure to get acquainted with your organization and it's fine caliber of businessmen and women.
"El oro es poder" is a famous saying amongst our more financially tuned minds in the commerce division, a rough translation would be "Gold is power" Señor Yagami. The Universal currency of Sirius, the credit is certainly no different here and I believe the analogy fits rather well. That being said, for any economy to thrive, one must make a calculated move into a particularly beneficial venture, lawful trading Señor.

For eons, the corsairs as you call them, Cretans as we refer to ourselves have prided ourselves over ruthless piracy and the trade of dangerous artifacts. A common misconception when an outsider first sees us. There are those among us who strongly believe that this life based around piracy and illegal trade is but a means to a slow painful end, an end that can occur in a multitude of ways. Frankly speaking, we the citizens of Crete, her people have had enough of the tyrannical rule and downright inhumane living conditions we are forced to undergo while the elders live in complete ignorance to their own people. Our pioneers never had this as the future of her people on-board the Hispania, a shameful existence we have lived, an existence we will tolerate no longer. For we are the Apostatas and we will bring about a new Golden Age for our people by any means necessary.

The current leadership of the Cretan populace is the Council of Elders (The Brotherhood). Their "rule" has resulted in our people being renowned across the Sirius system as the largest group of organised pirates. A name we are not proud of having, a name we choose to shed should we come to power.
Due to this mentality of the Elders, The Cretans have made many enemies and the Houses are all included here.
The Apostatas believe that for a sustainable existence, this diplomatic stance with the houses needs to be repaired and changed positively. We wish to be the harbingers of this positive change and are hence reaching out to the most reputed commerce organization across Sirius, Interspace Commerce. We hope that you can be our liaison into Liberty initially to show the people there than we are different and can cooperate with the local laws.
From a business point of view, we of the Apostatas can offer multiple commodities to trade at the lawful level. A manifesto will be provided in the end of this message with all the potential commodities we can offer.

As another factual statement, we condemn the illegal artifact trade to the New York System and are taking the necessary steps to end this market entirely. We believe that such unpredictable and downright dangerous items should not be sitting in the house of some civilian collector as a trophy. Rather, they belong in research labs where this technology can be reverse engineered for the betterment of said House.

Esta es nuestra historia señor Yagami. I hope you see us in a better light now. We await your response on this channel Señor.

Gracias
Lanzo Walker
General de Ejército
