I require you to initiate diplomatic talks with the Citali. Determine amongst yourselves who is best suited to lead the negotiations, but ensure that both of you are fully versed in the latest intelligence regarding the Confederacy. You may include any additional officers whose expertise will aid in achieving productive discussions. Keep me informed of your progress

Understood Admiral,
The Defender will begin making preparations for departure, whilst this is happening I will endeavour to set up a meeting with myself and Captain Tyrstoc to discuss the details of this mission in person.
We will keep you updated

Orders received, Admiral; and copied, Captain. USS Heimdall is underway, and will rendezvous with USS Defender to confer on a plan for talks ASAP. Request permission to bring on Captains Ysjana and Vel for additional operational support and consultation. Prior experience with the Citali system indicates we may have a significant task ahead of us, and operational parameters remain tenuous after the result of recent attempts at diplomatic relations with the Viggo. While it may be advisable to keep the total ship count of a prospective delegation down, it is my official recommendation that additional expertise and no less than three defensively capable vessels would prove prudent.

USS Delphi is in perfect shape, and well-suited for the task at hand. As is the captain, and her crew. Will make way to the rendezvous at earliest convenience.

Admiral,
Following a meeting between Captains that will be involved in the Diplomatic mission to Citali, some points where raised that I wish to clarify with yourself.
Would it be possible to arrange a meeting with yourself, before we begin the diplomatic proceedings?

Admiral,
Following the diplomatic attempts made late yesterday (Ship board local time), which seemed to be successful, we have opened diplomatic channels with the Citali.
Please find the AAR attached for your review and feed back if required.
