Subject: An Introduction

Signora de Marco,

It was pleasure making your acquaintance outside of Malta. Given your knowledge of cardamine transport, and La Famiglia's pilots, I would like to think we could establish a partnership that would benefit both of our parties greatly.

I am opening this channel to facilitate communication between the two of us. Should you need anything from La Famiglia, please request it here. Soldato Alesci speaks highly of you, and I trust his word. I hope, for both of our sakes, that he is right. We look forward to collaborating soon.

Saluti,

Alessandro di Medici

Signor Di Medici

It was likewise a pleasure to meet you and your pilots in orbit around planet Malta. I accept your offer for closer cooperation - after all, both of us will inevitably face a similar degree of economic and political pressure from the older and larger cartels once they complete their cumbersome reorganizations.

From our brief conversation, I gather that La Famiglia approaches the distribution of our Product with a pragmatic mindset akin to my own. A pleasant surprise.

Cordiali saluti,
Fiorella A. De Marco.

Signor Di Medici

I would like to inquire about your perspectives regarding the Nomads - specifically, your thoughts on their infiltrators among our people, and how you believe our interests might align with theirs, if they align at all.

These questions have arisen among the Outcasts following a relatively recent Nomad incident in orbit around planet Malta. I am keen to learn more about your views on this somewhat controversial subject.

Cordiali saluti,
Fiorella A. De Marco.

Subject: Unknown Presence - Coronado and Greater Taus

Signora de Marco,

I hope this message finds you well. I apologize for not responding to this in a timely manner. I understand that you had some inquiries on my stances surrounding Nomads and their presence within our homelands. In all honestly, Signora, I don't know what I don't know. I won't claim to have any sort of expertise on the subject. My policy has been and will continue to be to steer clear of them at all costs.

As for potential... contamination... I think that any compromised Maltese citizens when it comes to alien exposure should be eliminated. We don't know the motives of these creatures, and likely never will. If it were up to me, I would treat any contaminated Maltese like I would any Maltese who decides to go turncoat - with extreme prejudice.

As for the reason for MY message, it's about Coronado.

I was called out on patrol after a couple of my ships launched distress beacons in Tau-31. I couldn't find them. I, however, found a researcher roaming the Taus, seemingly by herself. Goes by the name of Thallia Thorn. Thorn mentioned that there were multiple ships of Kusarian origin roaming through Tau-31, which is out-of-character for them. Scrambled IFFs, potentially intelligence cells. They're presumed dead, but I wasn't there to substantiate the claim. My men are still missing, and I haven't found any remains near the routes they would have taken. Last communications relay unknown hostiles. Other than that, I have no knowledge.

She pointed me in the direction of Coronado. What she showed me there was... unsettling. A planet, or moon, seemingly, with some sort of Alien activity. Given the frequency of the Crayterian patrols, I didn't stay long. I escorted the researcher to Freeport 10 in Tau-37, and she is under my escort wing's protection while she does research from her side into the matter. In return, she will help me track down my missing soldiers, as we both agree that these events are likely related.

I assume you're more familiar with the situation in Coronado where I am. I also believe that you and Victor Alesci, one of my soldiers, have some unfinished business to take care of within that system. I propose a joint investigation between yourself and my soldiers to determine that dangers in Coronado present themselves to the greater Maltese society. I don't want to call in the larger armadas until we know what we're dealing with here. While we're there, we can handle your prior problem that lies there. I think it will be mutually beneficial for both of us.

In the coming weeks, I would like to stage a meeting between yourself, my men, and Thorn, to devise a plan of action surrounding this. I eagerly await your reply.

Be well.

Saluti,

Alessandro di Medici
