My name is Maya Mcascott, escort pilot for the IMG here at Java Station.
I`ve had a chat with a friend lately revolving around Gallia of all places.
Since my dutys mostly bind me to Java and my friend gets horribly space sick when flying for long distances, we wondered if, on your next scheduled travel, we could place an order for a few things from Gallia.
Mainly some food and drinks to taste the local cuisine, some information about its history, art and music. You know the stuff tourists usually search for.
We came up with a list of things, i will attach it below.
- copy`s of the top 5 novels currently available (maybe 2 or 3 years prior also) in paper form if possible
- copy`s of the top 100 musical songs currently available (maybe last years one too) in digtal form
- regional spices (5 boxes)
- regional wine (10 boxes)
- regional bread (4 boxes)
- regional sweets (2 boxes)
We`d also like to learn a bit about its craftmanship and arts, so maybe you could get us a holotainment band from a museum?
I guess they should have something like that for tourists?
The order should be delivered to Hallifax Station in Leeds, where my friend and i will meet on a weekly basis.
We would be very happy if this request is at all acceptable for you.
I`ll await your reply.
Sincerely
Maya Mcascott
Everyone will tell you small lies, except the people you love, who will tell you large ones.
Please accept my sincere apologies for the delayed response. Your message had, regrettably, been overlooked amid the numerous procurement requests for our convoys and hotels. It was only this evening that we recognized its particular significance.
Given the nature of your request, I felt it appropriate to respond personally. As a Gallic citizen, I am genuinely pleased by your interest in my homeland and its cultural heritage.
With regard to your inquiry, I am delighted to provide the following details:
Music: We will furnish you with a collection of 100 pieces curated by the Académie de Musique de Nevers, the most esteemed musical institution in Gallia. These will be delivered via OS&C-certified Holobox and Holoband. As no specific preferences were indicated, we have included a carefully selected range of genres. Each piece is available in both standard audio format and immersive mode, complete with concert footage from some of the most distinguished performances.
Literature: You will receive five critically acclaimed bestsellers from recent years—four novels and one historical essay—each offering valuable insight into the intricate history of our House. Every book is provided in its original language with a Libertonian English translation alongside, should you wish to engage with the text bilingually.
L'Héritage du Roi : Histoire secrète de la Maison Gallia
Les Ombres de la Cour
L'Exil du Dauphin
Les Corsaires du Roi
De Vin et de Sang
Museums: Nothing compares to a live experience, and for this reason, I would highly recommend exploring our catalogue of cruises and tours throughout Gallia, allowing you to witness firsthand the artistic, historical, and architectural wonders that our country offers. However, should this not be feasible, we are more than happy to provide you with immersive Holobox experiences. You may choose between the orbital residences of Versailles and Vendôme, or for a more grounded experience, the Natural History Museum of New Paris and the Fine Arts Museum of Orleans.
Wine: We are pleased to offer a selection of fine wines, including four cases of red, four of white, one of sparkling, and one of dessert wine. Sourced from vineyards across Gallia, these will allow you to appreciate the full depth and character of our winemaking traditions.
Cuisine: This is perhaps the most delicate aspect of your request. I must, with the utmost respect, decline to supply frozen bread and pastries, as it would be a disservice both to our culinary heritage and to your own expectations. A more refined solution would be to arrange a fresh delivery via the WSL-La Réunion when it next passes through Newcastle system. With its onboard bakery, we would be able to provide you with bread and pastries freshly baked and still warm upon arrival on the Halifax.
Should this arrangement be to your satisfaction, we would be pleased to provide a quotation and coordinate the logistics for delivery at your convenience.
firstly let me thank you for taking some time out of your, i assume quite busy schedule, to answer my request personally.
I`ve shown your respond to my friend already, and let me tell you, she`s quite excited about the things you mentioned.
Please let me know when the WSL - La Reunion is scheduled to pass through the Leeds System during the next weeks, so we can plan the exchange accordingly.
As there are quite a few variations of food and drinks involved in the exchange, i will call the Guild Supplyvessel Molten.Archon over towards Halifax.
I`m quite sure it has the capability to store the various goods in an adequate surrounding, so they stay fresh for a bit longer.
Me and my friend are looking forward to meet the Crew of the WSL - La Reunion near Halifax.
Thank you again for your respond.
With best whishes,
Maya Mcascott
Everyone will tell you small lies, except the people you love, who will tell you large ones.
I am delighted by your appreciation of our proposal. The total sum amounts to 10,000 credits, and the choice is yours whether to make the payment in advance to our account OS&C|Offshore.account or upon delivery of the goods.
Regarding this matter, I must admit my unfamiliarity with the exact location of Halifax, as it lies beyond the standard routes of WSL. Upon consulting our security squadron pilots, I have been strongly advised against bringing La Réunion directly into the West Leed smog cloud, as it would present an all-too-tempting target in an already precarious system such as Leeds.
We've listed two possible options: either relocating the rendezvous to Durham outpost, a more suitable location for our vessel, or maintaining Halifax as the meeting point, in which case we would reach it via one of our shuttles.
In either scenario, La Réunion will be passing through the area this Saturday morning, New London time.
I look forward to your response and, in the meantime, wish you a pleasant week.
I absolutly understand your hesitation to fly your Vessel into the West Leeds Clouds. Therefor i would also suggest we relocate the redevous to Durham Outpost.
Secondly:
I am currently unable to attend in person, as i am needed on official Guild business elsewhere. The Guild Supply Vessel IMG|Molten.Archon will arrive at Durham Outpost in a timely manner to oversee the transfer on my behalf.
The Molten. Archon will store the provided Goods and will also pay you for your trouble.
I am terribly sorry for not attending in person but i have send a message towards my friend so he knows where to find the new redevous spot.
Again my friend and i are very thankfull for your responce to our request.
Maybe one day my friend can visit Gallia in person, we just have to take it a bit slower do to her space sickness.
With best regards,
Maya McAscott
