Good day Mr. Vertiga -

I'm grateful for your trust in the IRG for your needs. As t' the matter of payment, please direct all funds t' IRG|Ingenuus. Since the project has yet t' begin though, there is no rush for funds t' be wired quite yet.

I do have another matter that I would like t' discuss. Our first contact with you was during the Freeport 11 incident, where you more than proved that your loyalty towards the Core was not a threat, given your request for repairs at Livadia. Since then though, there has been an agreement of ceasefire between Zoners and the Core, though I suspect that we have yet t' see that matter fully solved and complete. Anyway, with such a ceasefire, communications have been established between myself, and Guildkeeper Lyell.

I'm sure that name is familiar t' you, is it not? Now, please do not turn defensive, as any communication between myself and Mrs. Lyell has not provided her with any specific information regarding the Apahanta or yourself, beyond that she is aware we are in contact. I'm not in the business of selling secrets t' the highest bidder, nor wish t' be a catalyst that would harm those who have sought refuge and help from the Cof or IRG. The nature of our discussion regarding yourself captain though, is one I would like t' inquire further on.

My question for you is, and in your own words, why would Mrs. Lyell feel the need t' send me a comm that recommends caution with regards our association with you? Obviously I am taking her words with a grain of salt, if you can forgive such an ancient saying, but as a scientist and researcher, understand the value in coming t' my own conclusions with facts from all sides and angles.

I look forward t' your response Mr. Vertiga. Safe skies in the meantime.
