I guess Levinathan's word is weaker than that of Renevant.

Last time we talked, he assured me that this, uhm, hostility is over.


That is okay, though. I have no reason to go to Inverness. Freeport 14 was a nice home, but I have a better one now. And I am done with the people there. I do not really look forward to see Tamara or Kristoff again, nor any of those insane people or their space fish friends. I am a bit surprised about this level of pettiness, though.

Be that, uhm, as it may, though.

How are you doing? I was, uhm, wondering... about, you know. Waking up the day after. I know it is not the nicest thing to just leave like that. I really had to, though!

Do you... regret anything?


What you should regret is, uhm, not listening to me, though. Is hunting Corsairs really not enough? The Technomancers are annoying, sure, and it is good that they get hunted, but was it really needed for you to do the hunting? Barrier Gate is a safe place, sure, but you could run into these people the moment you launch from the station. And for what? A bit of money from your new boss? Caliban is just as petty as these people are, and he managed to drag you into that. You probably think you are doing him and anyone else a favor by doing this, but in reality you are his pawn now. I know you are looking for a place to belong, but this goes against what you said a long time ago: Stay out of this entire trouble.

Now look where it got us. Those people are not even trying to hide it. They want you and me dead.


That is something you should regret. I can assure you, I regret having gotten into any of this. Having fought so hard for Kristoff. Now these people want me dead, and Kristoff has abandoned me.

Trust me on this, Lea. Do not fight for anyone else. Only fight for yourself. That way you cannot regret what you are doing. Other people will let you down one day, one way or another. You are the only one you can fully rely on. Not on me, not on Caliban.



Just... try not to get yourself killed, okay?
