〘Set Subject: Enemy of your friends〙

⫸ Oh, don't treat this transmission as some sort of friendship offer. I'm a former Hessian, and by default the so called 'fondness' I have of your kind has carried over to my current profession. I'd carry your faces through the mud for free - being paid to do it too is just a bonus.

You should, instead, treat this message as a warning. You did me a favor - whether you wanted to or not - and so I will return it in kind. You seem like a nice guy - shitty haircut and origins aside. Keep your 'Black Sails' out of Omicron Theta and the northern regions. I don't practice trigger discipline in those places and neither do my buddies. Let Detterence and Brotherhood forces dry up their own numbers.

And don't hit me with that macho look on your face. Deep down your raisin-sized heart you know that if the Corsairs keep holding Freeport 9 only two things can happen. Civilian transports will gradually slow down resulting in net material loss for you and Outcasts will eventually lob a nuke or two at the place - or an entire force. Either way all the resources you dump into fixing that hellhole will be wasted and Corsairs will be left with picking through scrap. After that happens I can only wish you good luck with yet another Hammen Hole scenario only one system away from your home.
