Good day, Comrades.

I hope this communique finds you well. There have been news of violence in the border worlds amidst the ongoing silver rush. I suppose in their infinite greed, the corporations have laid claim to IMG's historical mining sites? History rhymes with itself, it seems.

Once the crisis is resolved, I would like to meet with representatives of the Guild in order to discuss future cooperation, mostly in the matters of gold trade. Guildmaster Albert Schulze has already agreed to join me aboard Connacht, but perhaps Kongsi Syndicate would like to send someone, as well?

Godspeed,
Matthew Jamie Burns
