Greetings, Bristol,

We’ve had a fresh wave of newcomers, and once again they’ve been impressed by the Bulwark’s performance.

As such, Phoenix would like to commission two additional Bulwarks from Bristol.

Afternoon Jonathan,

We currently have two Bulwark hulls for ready sale. They were built late last year, but loitering in Bering isn’t that harsh on a ship. I am sure Ms Chellew will be more than capable of giving inspections for any issues that may have developed in that time frame. From what can be said of anything, at least, it’s that the vessel has been sturdy enough in normal use that I’m sure this won’t be a problem. If you’re comfortable with that, I’m able to take payment for the vessels at the normal price.

Thank you for your gifts, by the way! The wife found them eccentric, to say the least, but she’ll think a little less so once I get the package back from the jeweler on Hamburg. At least, one would hope so. It’s been a busy start to the new year.

Greetings August,

Glad you found a use for the gift. I might have been tempted to turn it into weaponry myself, but we clearly don’t share the same priorities. Ha… ha…

I’ll rely on Ms. Chellew for the inspection. As always, you have my full confidence, your people have never failed us. The crew should be aboard at Akutan within the next few days.

In the meantime, the funds have been transferred.

Afternoon Jonathan,

Well, the inspection took far less time than was initially expected. It seems that the Engineering Department decided to keep up on inspections in the interim, so they were ready to certify the two hulls right with the sale. If Chellew liked Rheinbier I might consider getting her a case.

I’ve sent the transfer codes to you. Thank you for your business.

Greetings August,

Code received. The crew is now running the initial tests.

However, I must admit I made a small error in our calculations and dispatched a crew complement sized for three Bulwarks.
As it turns out, three will indeed be needed. Would you be willing to provide a third hull as part of this order?

The crew also has business to attend to on Erie, so timing is not an immediate concern.

Afternoon Jonathan,

Unfortunately, all hulls which were in storage have been sold - as such, I’ve contacted Engineering for the construction of another.

I’ll reach out to you once it has been completed and all tests for the vessel have been conducted. Should that crew need any assistance in the area of Erie, I’m sure our personnel on Cleveland Station would be happy to assist.

Afternoon Jonathan,

I’m glad to say that the Bulwark-class Heavy Explorer hull you requested is ready for sale. I’ve already informed our Engineering Department here to make the vessel ready for transfer to you, as soon as confirmation of payment has been made.

I look forward to hearing back from you.

Greetings August,

That’s good news. Our team should be finishing up on Erie soon and will be back at Akutan within the next few days.

The three Bulwarks will depart for the Omicrons as soon as the crews are ready.

Payment has been transferred to the usual account.

Afternoon Jonathan,

We’ve confirmed payment and sent along the ownership codes for the third Bulwark. I do hope your crew had a good enough time at Erie, considering the amount of unrest I’ve heard is there. It’s never a good time, really, and I don’t quite know how those Libertonians endure with LPI always being about. Never a good time, no. But hopefully they weren’t accosted too much there.

In any case, thank you for your business, and I look forward to our next talk.

Greetings August,

The situation for Zoners, and for anyone not aligned with Libertonian interests, in Pennsylvania is becoming dire. That is why we maintain a few recruitment centers in the region and nearby corridors. A significant portion of our recent newcomers come from places where Zoners are under pressure, such as Pennsylvania and Gran Canaria.

Anyway, the crew is back, and they have already taken the ship home to the Omicrons.

Until next time.

Jonathan Cayran, out.
