Bonghjornu, "Revendeur",
Whilst we understand keeping anonymity, this is unfortunately not acceptable within the Unione Corse, but it is not an issue to be accepted initially. Your name is important for our Omertà and internal rules. But we will clear this up later, no need to worry.
You are correct on the fact that nobody outside of a tightly-knit community, or "syndicate" as the Étrangers call us, the Corsicans are probably the only group where the secrets are held, and everyone helps the other. Everyone is "on the same ship here" - and without this behavior, we would not have survived after our arrival in the Gallic Sector, nor the wars that destroyed Gallia. And indeed, Provence could be understood as one of the last bastions of Freedom throughout Sirius.
We understand your apparent dislike of the Maquis, after all, they seek to disrupt the status quo which we maintain by holding total control over the Gallic Black Market.
We are glad to have received your application and we are happy to announce -- welcome aboard, you have been accepted as an Initié | ⟨. Report on Monaco Base, and prepare a ship of your choosing, whether a fighter, bomber, or transport, and be prepared for future assignments. Gunboats are within our reach, however until you reach the rank of Équipier | ✠⟨ (just above your rank), you will not be able to possess a Gunboat due to the very restrictive uses of this technology. However, Frigates are available right away, of course. This is why we have the Omertà, and complete and utter secrecy within the Unione Corse. Merci.
