To whom it may concern,

Almost 4 years ago I made a decision many within the the greater Junker community called me a fool for. I called our one of our business partners for something they were doing.

As stated in the attached transmission:

Historically Junkers have often turned a blind eye to the Corsairs cooperation with the likes of Samura and the Hogosha. Simply put, its good for business...

Did I come to regret that decision? No, that decision was made to protect my family. Something I suspect you yourselves can understand.

And if you think I have come here to apologize, you are mistaken.

The impact of the Gallic Invasion is likely to last decades if not be a defining event of this century. I pray nightly that we never see another event that will so thoroughly shake all of Sirius to it's core. Friends became Enemies, and an entire house was nearly wiped from the map. I am well aware that no love as ever existed between your people and the House of Bretonia, hell any of the 4 Major Houses for that matter.

4 years ago I saw the destruction of a place I called home briefly, then as if to throw salt in the wound I see a group of people I once considered friends choose to side with those who just obliterated thousands of lives in the blink of an eye. I acted rashly, and if by chance Elder Beltran is still around he can vouch that such impulse decisions are not something that I have done in the past.

Pardon my sentimentalities, this isn't an easy transmission to send I do hope you understand.

This brings us to today,

Trafalgar has been rebuilt, the Gallic Menace stopped, and across Sirius people are attempting to return to something that, at least vaguely, resembles Normal. Which means it is time for business to continue. You know as well as I do how valuable the Junker market share is for the Artifact trade. I don't expect us to immediately return to warm chummy relations I'm no fool.

What do you say?
Shall we start down the long road of repairing a once very profitable relationship?


Rick Tiltman,
Arbiter
