Sender: Kapitän Heinrich Falk Recipient: Omicron Supply Industries, Logistics Command Transmission Origin: Dax’s Gas Miner, Omicron Minor Subject: Urgent Delivery – Industrial Materials Request
Guten Tag, Herr Kelsomagus,
It has been far too long since our last exchange — I trust the void has been treating you well.
At present, I find myself in the company of Dr. Dax Lorne at his “Dax’s Gas Miner” here in Omicron Minor. Between discussing trade routes and trying not to inhale too much Azurite dust, we found ourselves facing a logistical bottleneck — compounded by the strain on our haulers and my own TS-Yoras languishing in repairs. With alternatives running thin, we’ve reached an agreement that calls for your particular brand of efficiency.
The request is straightforward: 30,000 units of Industrial Materials, delivered as soon as humanly (or logistically) possible. You were the first name to come to mind for such a task — and no, it’s not just because that Rheinbier shipment to M.M.L. made you something of a living legend among the crew. (Though, if we could bottle the way morale spiked after its arrival, we’d sell it by the megaton.)
Here’s the deal:
Base Buy Price at station: 65 SC/unit
Bonus for your speed and trouble: 50 SC/unit
Total payment: 115 SC/unit
I’d rather not think about the kind of chaos that will unfold here if we run out of building materials mid-operation, so speed is of the essence. Consider this an opportunity to cement your reputation as both a logistics wizard and the man who kept Dax from attempting to “improvise” a construction fix. Trust me — you don't want to know...
