SENDER: Major Setsuna Kobayashi, Battlegroup Ouroboros RECIPIENT: Hermann Weiss ; Weiss Shipping SUBJECT: Tragedy Sehr geehrte Herr Weiss, Weiss Shipping Employees. I am Major Setsuna Kobayashi, Battlegroup Ouroboros. Our forces have had limited but surprisingly amicable communication in space with your personnel, and we're shocked to hear of the tragedy of your convoy at the hands of the Maltese. The Alpha Run is one we dare undertake under cloak of Maltese night and small groups, but a whole convoy unless tightly coordinated and rapidly run can result in... tragic consequences. That being said, our ranks are open to those of Weiss who may find difficulty with lawful employment, as our Hakugyokrou Logistics Company is looking for qualified ship and arms technicians and engineers - as well as logistics crews. Irregardless of the path you and your employees undertake, we wish them the best of luck, and offer our condolences to the deceased.
