//All GMG and Kishiro members who wish to contribute their opinions here please do so, but remain in character. Order players may contribute but may only do so through holo-communications, as only my own character is physically present.

<Location: Planet Honshu, Gas Miner's Guild Embassy>

*The conference hall is a large, round room with seats arranged around the walls, everything covered in shining cold steel. Members of the Gas Miner's Guild and Kishiro Technologies are present, as is Ambassador Aki Kimura, to discuss terms of allegiance between the organizations involved*

"Kishiro, GMG, thank you for calling this conference for me today, I know all of you have tasks at hand and I do not wish to take any more of your time than is necessary to arrange an allegiance between our groups. I served as an escort pilot for Kishiro when I was young, and I know that Kishiro has much to offer in terms of technological engineering components. Unfortunately, most of these components are already in production by The Order as well, and I honestly do not know if we have anything of value to offer in return. If there is something needed by Kishiro that we can supply, please, let me know and terms can be arranged."

"The Gas Miner's Guild, on the other hand, has something very valuable to us... fuel. I know that our affiliations with the Corsairs and Hogosha have put us on uneasy terms with the GMG, and that is something I wish to correct through these diplomatic talks. We are not concerned with the disputes between the various groups within Sirius, all we are concerned with is protecting humanity - all of it - from alien threats that many of these groups are content to ignore."

"The Order's fleets are constantly struggling to keep active, as we have very few sources of H-fuel ourselves. We need to start importing more in order for these fleets to grow, and the only way this will happen is through the GMG. We may be able to offer equipment or weaponry in exchange, but more than that what The Order can give the GMG is security. I know, from personal experience flying in this area, that The Wild run rampant throughout the sigma systems - they are a dangerous opponent to the GMG and everyone else who operates here. Through increased patrols in the sigma systems, we can provide a shield between the GMG's miners and attacks from The Wild, and the repair and replacement costs this would save the GMG would alone increase production efficiency by an amount more than required to pay for the fuel needed by The Order at this point in time."
