From: Amalia Bezezkaja Kazimirovna
To: Zoners Trading Consortium

The video feed shows a luxurious living room; the furniture syle is obviously Kusari, although several objects and pieces of art from all the Houses can be seen in the room. An ample row of windows show the blurring effect of a trade lane outside, proving that the transmission comes from a ship. There is a big velvet sofa in the middle of the room; the tea table in front of the sofa is opened in two halfs, revealing a holodisplay and all the navigation and control systems to guide the ship. Lazily distended on the sofa lies a tall and slender woman with dark red hair, wearing a tight black flight suit. As the image properly settles in, the woman raises her green eyes to the camera, raises to a more formal sitting position and smiles.

"Hi there!" she speaks with a faint trace of russian accent, "I got this frequency from a friend of a friend of... well, you get it. I want to join you folks." She pauses for a moment, as if trying to stare at whatever person will look at the video. "My name is Amalia Bezezkaja Kazimirovna... but before you bite your tongue trying to repeat that, Amalia is just fine. I'm not a formality lover, and to prove that, I'll get straight to the point. I'm tired. I'm tired of all the politics, and the bickering factions, the whole Sirius melting pot... it stinks. The Zoners are the folk for me. <looks around and opens her arms to embrace the luxury room> I don't lack my own resources, so I won't be a drain on you. I want neutrality, and some place where I can be useful to someone or something without having to hurt someone else's interests in the process." Pauses again, then stands up and goes to a wall, where a display showcase sports a mixed collection of ancient blades and modern handguns. "I'm no saint. I had my moments, as anyone else in this dirty corner of the Universe. I've had my misunderstanding with the Houses, although nothing terrible. I worked for some of the Corps... Universal, Bowex, ALG, Spa and Cruise... and others; then I left. I couldn't bear the smell coming from the higher boards. I'm calling myself out from all the chaos, and I believe you Zoners are my best chance to do that." Turns again to the camera and smiles. "Don't make me wait too long for an answer, will ya?"
