That you for your prompt reply. It will be done. We will move the Cassus Belli to the orbit of America Base in order for your men to take what needs to be removed.

As for your being of service, I do believe you can be of service to us. You see, our supply of components for the outer hull of our battleships has run dangerously low lately after the battleship Incursus suffered a major hull breach. We would appreciate it if you would set aside several dozen shipments of these parts for our mutual friends, the Vagrant Raiders, to deliver to us from Valletta Shipyards.

On top of that, we're also running low on the MOX fuel that the dreadnoughts Ravager and Ven'Gyr need. Without this fuel, they'll completely fail on us in a matter of months or even weeks. We desperately need a shipment of this fuel delivered to Mactan Base as well. Unfortunately, the Raiders wouldn't have the manpower to move this shipment, too, and I'd have to request that one of your people move the fuel. We'll need four thousand tons of it to last us the year, or ten thousand to last us through next year as well. The exact amount is, of course, up to you. I'll leave it to your discretion and generosity. You can, of course, give us nothing at all, but then our ships would simply stop working quite soon.

Thank you very much.

-Executive Commander Mori.
