I was present the day Phoenix was born, coming from the Omicroners and the Zoners Trading Consortium before that ,
We, at the the Elysium of Light , have been busy in deep space exploration for the last couple of years and only returned to FP11 a couple weeks ago for ressuply and maintenance operations. We become then aware of the present tensions in our former home and called for a crew assembly of our little flotilla.
Our people decided that we should submit to you our desire of returning to the fold and make our resources available to the Phoenix as a returning member.
We will be waiting further orders in Freeport 11, Omicron Delta.
Apologies for the late reply, I have been rather occupied recently as you understand and have overlooked your application.
I would like to say that it is certainly good to see a group of veteran returning back from such a long voyage, and we would like you welcome you back to the family as requested. You are authorised to relocate your flotilla to Livadia Shipyard for any repairs or upgrade as you wish. Please update us your S.K.Y.P.E protocol and I will informally de-brief you on the situation and events so far..

Hello!!! *static sounds*

Greetings, nee! My name is Sera Phica. I've been in Sirius for quite a while. Well, it sure is lonely flying in this.... str--*static sounds*--ange world. As you might notice, I came from another Galaxy, thought I don't really remember. All I know is my name and that I need --*static sounds*-- some friends to survive here, nee... and mo--*static sounds*--ne--*static sounds*--
I heard you guys ar--*static sounds*-- recruiting, nee~
Umm... I-it's not tha-that I want to jo--*static sounds*--in you guys or anything. It's just, I don't know, I feel like you guys are --*static sounds*-- kinda neutral in Sirius from what I've hea--*static sounds*--rd.
I hope you guys can --*static sounds*-- get this message without prob--*static sounds*--lems. Thank you, nee~
This is Jonathan Roberts speaking; I have received your… slightly garbled transmission and understand that you wish to join our family. You are indeed correct we are on the lookout for new members, however, we are also quite skeptical for people without a full background for obvious security reasons if you can understand.
Could you try to remember or explain to us further where you came from and how you manage to come to Sirius, and possibly what you might plan to do within the Phoenix if you joined our family?

Hmmmm, good to hear that my last transmission was received just fine, nee.
I just upgraded this thing so, hope this one will be sent to you perfectly.
About my background... hmmm well, I just found this little note here inside my suit, it's some kind of a message... hmmm, it has a voice message too. Wait a sec, nee.
Quote:Dear, Sara.
If you are hearing this, I, Oberon, has failed to defend our planet, Elrie. Which only mean that you are the last one of our people.
I am really sorry that I had to trick you, wiped half of your memory, and put you in a Hibernation-mode. And then I send you to A Hyperspace-Escape Pod with all necessary equipment for you to survive when the Pod is sent away to whenever it takes you. I got no other choice. You must live. You must survive. Live a happy live out there.
Long live my daughter.
Long live our last Quee---*gun shot in the background*---Haaahhkkk!~~
*noise from background*
Search the other room!!
Now, now... what do we have here... fufufu~
Oh... a voice message, eh? Oh well...
Hello, my little queen... don't be scared, I will find you.
And send you to your dad's place soon.
*beep!*
--*static sounds*--
*** Voice Message Ended ***
Whoa!! That was.... an over-dramatical voice message going on there!
But, dad... tch.....
*long pause*
Anyway, please... don't feel sorry about this, uh... problems of mine. I will keep this to myself, alright.
So, Mister, uh... Roberts... You want to know my reason for joining your family? Well, as you just noticed, I have no family nor home to go back to, nee. Also, I want to use my time and ability better to help you guys. And may be, while at it, I can do some research about my home planet. But, well, let's put my problem aside. I want to join your family, okay nee. I want to help you guys, I want to help other people as well. And I heard about this thing called the Nomads whose been bothering people in Sirius. I can always go freelancing but, being with a family calms me down.
I hope--*static sounds*--this is good enough reason, nee.
Guten morgen, my name is Hunnreh Metzger. I once hailed from Rheinland for which I can never again call home. I worked as a miner in the omegas where I learned just how "valuable' we really were to Rheinland. Continually being pirated by Hessians and other pirates alike, government officials were unconcerned about the attacks and Rheinland civilians lost. Gathering as many of the Omega workers that I could, we traveled deeper into the Omegas, coming upon a Freeport Zoner station. They welcomed us with warm hearts and bright smiles, providing much needed food and water. While sitting at the bar, I met a man who said he heard of a faction of Zoners who could help us refuges find the home we wanted, they called themselves The Phoenix. So we through together ever last bit of credits we had and purchased a Nephilim class Zoner colony ship in hopes to find this faction and a planet away from the violence that seems to plague the Sirius system.

Greetings fellow Zoners.
My name is Brian Epps and I'm captian of Zoner Whale "Vanity". This ship is my birthplace, my home and if we, Zoners don't do somthing about being exiles, it will probably be my grave too.
That is the reason why I want to join you, I want to build a house on a planet that we call the home.
While your situation is strange not to mention... alien to us, we sympathise with your position and with your willingness to help us in our cause. We are willing to accept you into our family in return to see how this turns out; as long as you follow our pacifist way to deal with obstacles emerge throughout our daily lives.
As you used the neural net to make this application, I assume you would also have access to S.K.Y.P.E protocol as well? Give us your code (through private channels if you wish for security reasons) and I will run few more things personally before welcoming you in.
To: Hunnreh Metzger
Good day Mr Metzger,
As many of us are from the house space as well just like you and your colleagues, we understand too well the attitude adopted by corporate business and government bureaucracy in house space.
The Phoenix understands your cause to move away, and our family will be open for you if you promised to join under one simple condition. We only ask of you and your colleagues to move away from your past, use the colony ship through peaceful means only and bear no grudge to your ex-enemies inorder to start a new as a Zoner in the edge worlds.
Should you choose to accept them, please give us your S.K.Y.P.E protocol (privately if you wish) and we will run through few more things directly.
To: Brian Epps
Good day Mr Epps,
A captain of a ship that you live and born in ? Well, as the head of Livadia Shipyard who is also responsible of ship building and development, stories like this make my heart warm! It shows the quality and the workmanship pour into these ships are indeed fit for the edge worlds and to with stand the harsh environment around us.
Anyway, enough with my babble, I have to agree with you. A Zoner is nothing without other Zoners, thats what makes us Zoners. Unfortunately, we have not been able to locate another suitable planet other than the Gran Canaria for you to build a house in, but I am determined we will find one in the future.
You are always free to join us in the search as long as you understand our ways and agree to follow them, but I am sure you probably wont need much help with them as you are already a Zoner!
Give us your S.K.Y.P.E protocol, privately if you wish, and I will run few more things with you before things happens.
