Subject: Dedicated to our customers
Salutu Signore Crooke,
I contact you on this other channel for various reasons I’m sure you will understand:
We do believe in your encryption methods but it is possible that Gallic authorities already have knowledge about Sirius coding procedures. Hence we prefer to rely on our algorithms when it comes to discuss such… client’s matters
Second thing is that Agenza Turistica di Pruvenza is a legal company. They’re under the same regime of controls than other lawful organizations. We never know how far inspectors can look into private messages. We prefer to avoid that mentions of illegal things to be found in ATP communications
Back to your demand. I was expecting to discuss such interests with OS&C but not that early in our business relationship, as we just start building trust. I will be honest with you: we wouldn’t have answer to your demand if we didn’t know people walking on grey lines that place their confidence in Signore Seabourne. You can thank him for your incoming advancements on your “customers’ satisfaction” initiatives.
You're right Signore Crooke, influential and wealthy people are always looking to cross borders they shouldn’t, it excites them, make them feel powerful. I am not surprised that Sirius and Gallic elites behave the same way. That’s a bit sad right? Hundreds of years of evolution and in the end, the feeling of dominance, the number of digits in the bank account and primitive sexual needs run most of humans’ heads and hearts. Anyway, as long as this so called educated social class make us earn the money we need to run our projects and reach our goals, why won’t using them?
“Customer is king!” We do share that motto and we do answer to all their needs, even the most bizarre ones. So yes, setting up a deal on NOX distribution to your Sirius bases is something we will work on. Your success is ours, the more OS&C liners coming to Provence, the more we boost our local economy. We propose you this following working methodology:
GPM will set up dedicated production lines and storage infrastructures on Marseille for OS&C Capitani that wish to acquire NOX. GPM is able to provide escorts to your ships in the Minarchy space, for free
Any organization, independent Capitani affiliated or partner to OS&C can also come to Provence to fill their ships. But we will need their names in advance so that they do their job without any trouble from our side
We have some Junker friends that can also deliver NOX in your bases. That won’t be free but you’ll avoid to get all that nasty stuff in your cargo
In return the GPM asks OS&C do bring back from Sirius any kind of offensive/defensive technology: weaponry, illegal ammunitions or even salvaged military components. Purchase price and delivery location is something to be discussed depending on the goods we’re talking of. I let you come back to us with a list of “services” you can offer and pick the ones we are the most interested in.
So that you know, WE have hands on NOX production. We don’t have suppliers, only clients. Also, we already export NOX, in small quantities, to some places in Sirius. The feedback is tremendous, we are sure your customers will appreciate that new meal in their menus.
Coming to Provence and make business with us was a move you don’t see yet all the benefits.
Sinceramente,
Cristofanu Casanova

Aplogies for the slip up. The fact that encryption details for Sirian and Gallic communications may differ have not occured to me. I have taken the liberty of scrubbing the data on our end. We would very much prefer to be known as a reputable company ourselves, especially when reaching into Gallia's pocket. As for overstepping our boundaries, let's just say that a decision was made as of late due to certain ... financial difficulties on our end. It was deemed necessary to expand our scope a little and take a little risk. What better way to build trust in any relationship then to engage in activities that require the trust of both parties? Or at least that's what HR told me.
Orbital Spa & Cruise does not like getting its hands dirty. At the very least I can attest that Orbital Spa & Cruise ships should not be handling the pickup and delivery of contraband. The second and thrid type of arrangement is more favourable to us, having somebody deliver small quantities as an "introductory offer" would be more convenient. My personal proposal is restricting the supply of the goods so we can artifically keep the prices high. Afterall it is something new and exotic to the people of Sirius. Instead of selling to us at a fixed price, perhaps a better option would be to give you a percentage cut of our profits. That way your organization can benefit from price gouging as well.
As for the return offer. Orbital Spa & Cruise deals mostly with tourism. It is unusual for us to deal with materials like weapons and military salvage. At the very best at the moment we can only arrange for very standard fare, namely whatever is available on the Sirian civilian market. I would prefer if we provided something that is more related to our business. My counter proposal is that we provide information and samples of Sirian's own specialities. In the case that you absolutely cannot waver on your offer, I can perhaps find some contacts that can provide us with such items.
Colour me surprised that your organization have the reins on such a lucrative trade. I am inclined to agree that I have yet to see the full extent of the benefits of our cooperation. Hopefully that picture will become clearer as cooperation increases.
Regards,
David Crooke

Salutu Signore Crooke,
I sincerely apologize for that delay in my answer. We had some important military affairs to handle. I am sure you will understand these matters had higher priorities and required my full attention.
I do confirm your first message was perfectly scrapped and there is no more mention of any exchange on this matter on our company’s database. As far as your HR point of view is understandable, it lead us to troubles in the past, troubles we can’t afford to face again. Your reputation, in all its aspects, serves you right on our matter.
We comprehend your desire to keep the offer low while observing a growing demand and pricing. This is a practice we have in common, though the competition hardens our efforts in Ile-de-France. We will let our Junker card for another occasion in this case, these gluttons would not be satiated by introductory offers. We also decline your respectful proposition to offer a percentage of your profits: as long as your Capitani, or affiliated, fill their ship in Corsican docks, the benefits you make then are totally yours. We trust in the importance of rewarding efforts. And anyway, the more you sell, the more you purchase and the more NOX becomes famous in Sirius, your success is ours Signore Crooke.
We duly note that you have at your disposal such contacts that maybe part of a future deal. Right now we have in mind another request that you may answer to: Laboratorii Propriano, our scientific branch, is currently running some experiments to preserve Marseille’s unique marine wildlife. We are actively looking for systems that possess similarities with Provence but our databases lack of such data regarding Sirius systems. I am sure OS&C ones are full of these kind of information right? A quick look on them would satisfy us:
Medium Blue Green Star // Luminosity: IV // Temperature 8K
Sufficient flying space in a 25K large circle from the star
Presence of water required in the system
System has to be free from Outcast, Golden Chrysantenum or Enclave forces
Closest as possible from Gallic Space
We would understand that all these parameters couldn’t be combined in one system, the closest configuration still answers our interest.
As you said, step by step, we will unveil the full potential of OS&C and Corses collaboration.
Sinceramente,
Cristofanu Casanova

I think we can come to an agreement here. Orbital Spa & Cruise does have cursory knowledge of system characteristics, but surveys into the Taus have been rather sparse as of late considering the war. This presents a good opportunity for our side to gathering some data as well. Orbital Spa & Cruise will dispatch a survey team to help you get the data you need.
Just a word of caution, do not get your hopes up. Your criteria is highly stringent, especially regarding the lack of Outcast influence. The Outcasts are everywhere and their influence is wide. I would be hard pressed to find something in the Taus without their brand of influence hanging about on some dingy rock. With the opening of the Zurich corridor, perhaps I can offer to extend our survey efforts into Rheinland and the Omegas? That part of Sirius tends to be outside of the Outcasts' sphere of influence, but still not without some other issues.
It is truly a shame that Edinburgh or, Aquitane as it is now known is under Enclave control. I think your scientists would have greatly appreciated studying Planet Gaia. Truly a treasure trove of unique wildlife. Perhaps if you spare some interest, I may be able to dust off some old data from the Shetland days and possibly even a creature or two.
Stay tuned on this channel and give it some time, I will inform you as soon as our survey team gets the necessary data.
Regards,
David Crooke
