Greetings on behalf of the Aspari Syndicate.
We've heard tell that your nation is undergoing some internal turmoil; while this is par for the course of international politics, what did interest us is the... somewhat unusual sentiment that magic was behind the recent loss of some of your ships. However, this missive is not to ridicule your beliefs, but to offer our aid. You see, we are a very different business than most, and part of our success story has to do with our usage and refinement of the dark arts. We have certain... contacts on the other side that believe they can help your nation subvert these so-called shadow magics. While their talents are certainly nothing to scoff at, we feel that a touch of guidance from the ones who have dwelt in shadow since the beginning of time could help ensure that your gunners can hit their targets. If nothing else, they can act as efficient spotters for your long-range weapons, but for the right price, we are willing to ensure our full involvement in the resolution of your troubles. If you're curious, or simply wish to know more, please don't hesitate to contact me; it'd be my pleasure to offer you our full array of services and opportunities.
Warm regards,
Dorian Thoreau
Director of Extraplanar Relations
The Aspari Syndicate
