>> To: Phoenix Zoners

[Soban]

Hello, sweeties,

When I spotted “Aegis” in my inbox this morning, I was positively tingling—surely a charming photo of a Corsair begging for mercy or erupting into glitter!
Imagine my disappointment when I opened it and found… paperwork. Sigh.

Serious hat on for a moment: we have zero special arrangements with the tin‑cans roaming the Omicrons. Remember Kappa?
We backed the Core. Our targets were the Vis and the Corsairs, yet the AI and that over‑caffeinated technocrat still felt the urge to lob hot plasma our way.
It seems dear Muse got a little too excited about building himself a sentient toaster. He’ll receive a polite reminder to keep his mechanical curiosity firmly outside your business, thank you very much.

Your credits have been dispatched. Might I suggest investing in a premium hemorrhoid cream, darling? Because if one eccentric scientist truly registers as a crisis for the “elite,” we have much bigger problems.

Oh, and about this little gem:

14.07.2025 21:31:40 — Aegis|Ashton.Wood: “Your little Phoenix begged me to help keep their base alive.”

We don’t beg. We simply align the proper stack of credits to nudge problems off our lawn.
If you’re suddenly working pro bono, feel free to return the money. I’d simply love to watch you blow up Corsairs for free.

Ta-ta for now!
