Mrs. Nodoka,

It appears that the Commune has indeed returned, for some reason. Pity my superiors have not told me anything about it. On top of that, I happen to have just witnessed my own Guildmisstress not co-operating with the Core Laws, which appears to be most odd. I thought she had made a Solemn Vow before she got granted that very position. My loyalties lie with the Core, and not with the coat-switching Maltese. In any case, if the Commune is actually going to get their hands on the station, we're done for. But know this, you have our complete loyalty and trust. Perhaps we could establish another meeting on the station to further discuss this topic, and possibly without any Coalitionists hassling around.

-Yours truly, Paladin Bartlett, The Core.
