Good evening Miss. Hunter -

I must apologize for the lack of communication these past weeks. Given our own internal projects, including developing our own powercore, as well as recent events across Sirius, majority of the IRG staff have laid low t' a degree. We do apologize though for not providing a forewarning t' those we have a contract with. I hope you understand.

Regarding your requests - our powercores are nearing a state t' be purchasable, and as soon as we have conducted final tests, we will inform you and see about drafting up a contract. I do though have full confidence it will suit the Thunderbay perfectly, and in fact given the status of project "Tonitrus", that may be one of the last pieces of the puzzle t' get her up and running fully.

Now, the Ingenuus Cloaking Device. Indeed it is a marvel, and one we have spent countless hours and years developing. Not one we are eager t' share fully, even t' our closest allies. The ability t' create such a cloaking field, in conjunction with an Ingenuus Power Core, is something we do not wish t' fall into the wrong hands, nor provide an excuse for those eager t' find fault in the IRG and our work. With that in mind though, we would need t' draft up an agreement and determine t' what extent we would share such technology with the Order. That is not t' say we view the Order as untrustworthy, but the more you share, the more likely it is t' be abused by 3rd parties. I do hope you understand our precaution given that this technology is what the IRG is built upon.

Perhaps a meeting is needed, in person. When is a good time and place for your Miss Hunter?
