"... well, buddy. Didn't even have to hack."

He sighs and pauses briefly before continuing.

"Hunter."

"You may or may not remember me from our meeting in Inverness. Either way, I'm reaching out to let you know that Bellamy is in critical condition. They've entrusted me to take care of their personal affairs should something like this happen."

"I want you to know that not everyone here approved of Bellamy's trust in you. In fact, there were formal complaints about it. And yet, Crowe apparently saw something in you. Something worthwhile."

"So I'll try to do the same. If you ever need a contact in TFP and Bellamy's not there... Feel free to reach out."
