Inside Leadership

[Venkman]

Moving back to his chair, Fernand complimented Dia's way of dressing, especially the necklace she was wearing, to which Dia smiled. As you mentioned, my people suffered a lot. From external to internal wars, but finally we're at peace, well sort of. I believe that The Union will be able to maintain this and that the people of Gallia will finally be able to go back to their previous lives.

The time of prestige that the Gallic people are fond of will return once again and IDF will be the company that's going to enable that way of life. For that Dia, I will require capable people at my side, people such as yourself. Unlike Mademoiselle Pomeroy, I will take action that is required for achieving our goals, some of which will come at the price, but... all in due time.

Let me show you something. Fernand took the pad that was on his table and opened an image on the main screen. Here are the statistics of our beloved Bouvet S.E. for the past three years. We're at the backfoot here, even the Sirian company like the Orbital Space & Cruise has drawn more interest from our people, not to mention the Unione Corse. Fernand turned off the screen and threw the pad on the table. That isn't right.

The time has come to change this and we'll begin now. Dia, your task will be to get in contact with your family on Crete, if you need anything, my secretary will be at your disposal. Second, the alternative route has to be taken, the Cologne - Zurich corridor is off limits as the relationship with Rheinland must not be compromised. I want you to keep me up-to-date with everything that's going on.

Keep in mind that The Union will not allow pilots of the Empire to freely roam around Gallia, hence why maximum secrecy is advised. This is but the first step, once we have a somewhat steady flow of Artifacts going, the Bouvet will be good to go.

If you have any questions... I'm all ears.
