I mean, hey, that's just the Inner Circle's edge of the story. See if you can snatch one of the old Alcatraz Rogues, they also had a run in with Unioners and their ways. I'm pretty sure they handled it by just punching them in the teeth really hard, and that the Rogues are the reason we're not shooting down Unioners at the Texas gate in New York to this day. If Hemlocke was still around, I'd send you straight to him, but seriously, find one and ask.

Anyways, between Unioners and the damn Hogosha, you might be starting to figure out why, traditionally, Lane Hackers ran Cardamine and not Artifacts. Hell, the original peace treaty between IMG and Crayter Republic was brokered by Inner Circle members so that we could get a better, more stable grasp on the Barrier Pass. If you really want to mess around with Artifacts, though, get me a stealth module for my bomber and I'll drum up an old contact. Can't tell you who it is now, good old "need to know", but I assure you that they're significantly more reliable and more professional than Unioners. They're also experts on which artifacts blow up in your cargo hold and which don't, so you can rest a bit easier. Us old Inner Circle guys still got cards up our sleeves.

Also, might check in with the Junkers. I know your Xenos buddies won't like that, but your Xenos buddies also don't like you, no matter what they tell you. Even Inner Circle fell for that one. Oldhead business, though.
