External Transmission Recieved

To the management of Ionic Incorporated,

We recieved your transmission, ableit with some difficulty decyphering it from our end, and as one of the more veteran captains amongst the Universal fleet, I was more than happy to take a look over the information you sent over. I was initially purplexed as to why you had specified, in such great detail, the routes to be taken, but as a gesture of good will I was happy to overlook our normal navigation charts and follow them, providing it did not incur any problems to our vessel.

The total shipment amounted to approximately 3 trips worth, albeit the sources of these were quite spread out as I am sure you are aware, given the proposed navigation route. We managed to obtain all shipments of [REDACTED] from our suppliers at [REDACTED], whilst additional [REDACTED] was sourced from more local suppliers to Kusari space. They don't call us Universal for nothing!

As per your instructions, we rendevouzed with your escort for the final trip of the journey, with the last shipment you requested. We're still curious to know exactly what was in this shipment, as the deck crew refused to provide any manifest but all the details matched, so I can only assume this was intentional on your behalf. These containers were transported securely to your station located in Shikoku, under the watchful eye of your escort vessel, piloted by someone who identified themselves as "Mara Whitman".

We are very thankful for the provided escort, and we hope that these shipments of various specific goods pass inspection and are to your satisfaction. I can guarantee that, despite numerous jump holes, they encountered no damage from the journey nor from hostiles, the latter I am sure was because of Mara's actions.

Please do get in contact if you have any further shipments planned. I may also be interested in any corporate openings in the Transportation sector you may have going, these Universal loaders are quite aged now, and perhaps a change of career direction might be beneficial in the long run.
