INITIALIZING MESSAGE

---

Good day Council men and women -

I'm in fact onboard Valletta, having just finished a meeting with Marietta Mercante, the Administrator of the Corsica Intelligence Division. Using one of Valletta's terminals actually as I send this, hence the Council transmission formatting.

I'm sending this comm under the advisement of the Administrator in order t' request permits for the Ingenuus Research Group, specifically for authorization t' use our Corvo-class research vessels as well as our flagship, the mobile research facility and headquarters of the IRG.

As you are I'm sure aware, we have a team already on Ibiza, with a Corvo already moored there long term. Don't worry, bringing in the team and mooring on Ibiza was under the authorization from the prior ruling body, the Crimson Cross. I'm hoping though t' continue such allowance, as well as be granted use within the Omicron Tau, Omicron Alpha, and Omicron Beta systems. While the IRG had received access t' these systems from the Crimson Cross, specifically High Inquisitor Espinosa, I realize that not all permits or agreements have transferred over, or are still valid. I would be shocked though if the NC has no records of our authorization or our presence aboard Ibiza.

In case you need t' inquire about our use of the Corvo-class vessels, the IRG utilizes such vessels as mobile laboratories and research vessels. Outfitted only with gunboat defensive weapons, these vessels do not pose a threat nor have they, are they, or will be used in anything other than their intended purpose within the IRG - Research and exploration. The Ingenuus in turn only operates with CT-402 "Charon" Transport Turrets for defensive capabilities.

If you need anything further, please request such and I will respond over IRG comms.

Until then, safe skies.
