False Identifications are certainly within my capabilities. These will be very short term identifications, as the LSF maintain a rigid and persistent information update network, no more than a day or so.

The way it will work is, on the day your men are sent to obtain the ships, they must activate the fake IDs. This will override forward facing networks such as Ageira's and the LPI's, allowing you to obtain the ships without raising any alarms. At some point, generally within a day, the Mitchel servers on Prison Station Fairbanks will force update the network, and your IDs will be flagged as illegitimate, raising alarms in LSF, Liberty Navy, and LPI. By that point, I hope your men to have long departed the area.

Bristol will have to feign ignorance, or truly be ignorant, one or the other. When questioned, they have to answer that they were also deceived by you, and probably report it to Interspace Commerce as a loss or theft if they have insurance.

After that, there should be very little issue. As this is a very simple and easy procedure, payment won't be necessary. I'll deliver the forged IDs to Malta in the coming days.

On to my concern: I am approaching an important time in life. Three years ago, the Blackout struck, and while the situation was solved in 31 hours, I was still stuck at home for safety reasons for several months. To cut a long story short, we are approaching the third birthday of my little ones. They were born from two people who are bound to Cardamine. While not related to any family in Malta, Malta is very much in their blood.

You are a symbol of an older time, where more traditional Maltese values flourished, and the unity of the Orange Alliance was much stronger. Though I haven't been to Malta in some time, when last I was, it was you who was the only one flying the Cross. Every other banner was that of individual families. Even though the Cross is emblazoned on the Ranseur, it seems very few respect it.

Therefore, to better equip them for the future they will eventually have to face, and to give them an environment where the walls are covered in the banners of old glories, and not new failures:
I formally ask you, Vin Chenzo, Don of the Cross of Malta, to stand as the godfather of Michael and Lilith Ling.

Eventually, Age will catch up with me. She will be much slower to catch you. Times are hard. They will only get harder from here. I hope that, when there comes a time that I can no longer, you will safeguard and guide them.
