It has come to my attention that Seward Station has recently changed ownership. Congratulations on your new role (maybe)

For some time now, the Wraith Holme has enjoyed a mutually beneficial arrangement with Seward Station. We have provided the facility with military salvage in exchange for credits and occasional bartering of other goods. I am writing to express my strong interest in continuing this relationship, provided Seward Station remains under Junker control and maintains its "ask no questions, receive no lies" approach.

The Order, of course, understands the delicate political landscape of Delta. We prioritize maintaining a low profile and avoiding conflict. This includes not drawing undue attention to ourselves or the station, something we have managed quite well in the past. I would be grateful for the opportunity to discuss the continuation of our partnership at your earliest convenience. Please feel free to contact me directly, or on this secure frequency

Greetings Ted,

Forgive my lack of introduction, my name is Frederick Schmidt. Pleasure to hear from you.

I have taken over management, and it was brought to my immediate attention that the previous regulations for the crew care do not meet our minimum Quality of Life requirements. I regrettably have to lock down all docking bays and mooring points so that we can investigate and rectify the issues. It is a painful process, but one that is necessary to ensure that every crew member aboard Seward is looked after to the fullest of capacity.

I have no ETA for this. The station is to be meticulously combed through and assessed, as well as paperwork needing to be submitted. Any previous arrangements have to be postponed for the time being. I do apologise, I understand the difficulty of such processes can bring on arrangements. People’s safety and wellbeing is our top priority.

We apologise for the inconvenience.
