Guten Abend Officers,

as i was about to begin my patrol of the New Berlin system, a Bounty Hunter approached me near the trade lane to Essen Station.
He was on his way to inquire about the state of affairs with Rheinland's bounty contracts and the overall state of the board, as he had been made the new Guildmaster of BHG. Having found me, he seemed content to instead talk to me about it. Referencing a prior communication, that was not yet taken care of apparently.

[22.10.2022 18:58:17] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: Guten Tag, Hunter. Welcome to New Berlin.
[22.10.2022 18:58:33] BHG|Sundown: Oh. Finally an off-duty pilot. Thank God, I was getting all too lonely 'round here.
[22.10.2022 18:59:09] BHG|Sundown: Ma'am, if I may. Happen to know what's up with the higher-ups of your Military?
[22.10.2022 18:59:09] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: Off-duty? I just started my shift, afraid i have to disappoint in that regard.
[22.10.2022 18:59:30] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: With my superiors? Please specify that question.
[22.10.2022 18:59:43] BHG|Sundown: Works just as fine. But I've struggled to find anyone to talk to 'bout that damned question of payment.
[22.10.2022 19:00:01] BHG|Sundown: Ah, so you don't know. Sorry, I got all too used to my rank.
[22.10.2022 19:00:23] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: *Traudel tilts her head a bit* Is... there an unresolved matter of outstanding payment for a claimed bounty?
[22.10.2022 19:00:27] BHG|Sundown: Well, to be brief, we've shot a transmission to the Government of Rheinland and to the Military about higher paymnets.
[22.10.2022 19:00:44] BHG|Sundown: It ain't about unpaid ones, rather, the ones that don't exist at all.
[22.10.2022 19:01:10] BHG|Sundown: See, we're runnin' on cash. No profit means no business. Rheinland's paying us not even 2 pennies to do work around here!
[22.10.2022 19:01:10] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: ...ah, ja. Ja i see. I had another Hunter approach me about that just half a week ago. I have forwared that to my superiors.
[22.10.2022 19:01:54] BHG|Sundown: [He ponders the statement, but shrugs it off a second later.]
[22.10.2022 19:02:10] BHG|Sundown: It'd be great if you could do that again.
[22.10.2022 19:02:28] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: I take all matters as equally important - and that one will be as well. Certainly.
[22.10.2022 19:02:36] BHG|Sundown: So, now that we got that ugly matter out of the way...
[22.10.2022 19:03:06] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: I assure you, they are aware. I believe a recently returned Admiral has specific interest in the Bounty Hunter's Guild.
[22.10.2022 19:03:09] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: Something will happen.
[22.10.2022 19:03:23] BHG|Sundown: Mind if I join you on your patrol? I ain't too familiarized with Rheinland, so I could use some help in further expanding on-
[22.10.2022 19:03:24] BHG|Sundown: -that front.
[22.10.2022 19:03:49] BHG|Sundown: I hail from Manhattan, so there isn't much reason to leave that or Houston, our headquarters.
[22.10.2022 19:04:02] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: Mhm? Another topic? Oh - but why, ja of course! Not been around these parts often then, with the lack of bounties i take it.
[22.10.2022 19:04:27] [RM]Obl.Trau.Habermeyer: Mhh, Manhatten? Never been there myself. Rheinland and its borders is what i know well, there it stops again.
[22.10.2022 19:04:32] BHG|Sundown: Rather for other issues. I'm the new Guildmaster, and y'know what they say, you can't be a good leader if you don't know what-
[22.10.2022 19:04:43] BHG|Sundown: -your men are dealin' with. Don't you agree, ma'am?

While we were talking about the possibility of him accompanying me on my patrol, to get a bit more familiar with the territory of Rheinland, a Freelancer was spotted. His transport, a dubious vessel at best, carrying an impressive amount of cargo. He was instructed to very carefully unload that at a nearby docking station. Hitman Lock appeared on the scene not long after.

Both Hunters and me proceeded to head for Hamburg, as i gave a quick rundown of the most recent events in this system.

Returning to New Berlin, i explained the importance of the Ruhrfeld for several unwanted organizations from within and outside of Rheinland - Unioners, Golden Chrysanthemums and even that Coalition battleship. The latter two seemed of considerably more importance to the new Guildmaster.

As an interest in the Sigmas was mentioned earlier, we took the jump gate to Frankfurt and deviated from the lane network near Planet Holstein. As it turned out, Sigma-13 was known already - and for Sigma-15 the time was no longer sufficient. We therefore headed for a rather remote Freelancer installation in Sigma-13. Newport Station. The Guildmaster, codename 'Sundown', departed, while Lock and me stuck around for a short while longer.

Monitoring access to Frankfurt, nothing out of the ordinary came up. Bootsmann Fischer joined us after a while in the Sigmas, he too found nothing of note on his own patrol. A distress call was relayed to me, hailing from New Berlin system. The three of us plotted a course immediately, combed the system but came up empty - no sign of who sent it or what was the cause of it.

After regrouping near Planet New Berlin, a Hessian dared to enter Rheinland sovereign territory. The terrorist and pirate was subsequently attacked by Bootsmann Fischer and me, managed to take out Fischer's craft and severly damage mine - then decided to take his leave. Bootsmann Fischer was safely tractored aboard by Lock, while i docked at Oder Shipyards for repairs.
