Miss Keisotsu,

More importantly, who are you? I know of Kiretsu and its position as a 'registered' faction, but I do not believe you are the one whom I was expecting to reply. I am Doctor Nihilius Clark, leader of the research and development branch of the Consortium. If you do not believe me, just ask Overwatch.

More importantly, how can I not know of Tau-65? It is vital for all of our research branch to be informed of natural and unnatural phenomena of the Sirius sector. The radiation emitting from your 'secret' system is enough to attract the attention of every house in Sirius. Even I can detect it with the simple sensor suite of the Sinjin.

Now, you have avoided my inquiry. Perhaps a straight-forward reply is in order instead of such condescending interrogations?

Doctor Clark, signing off.
