[Coughing fits.] Sorry, Trau. I've... tried my best.

I'm sorry I couldn't protect you like I said I would.

Get out, get to safety... don't try to fight her.

I'm... all broken over here. But I'll be okay.

Shhh, easy now.

I know you did your best and i value it highly - it was not expected of you, nor did i ask you to do it.
Yet you did so nonetheless. No need to worry too much, i am alright. Managed to not suffer the same fate.

Thus, all that is left for me now is to be concerned. About you, that is. How are you? Are you really going to make it? Can i do something?
Where have they brought you? A little gift basket is the least i can do. They ... they brought you somewhere, ja?

Don't you quit on me now, there is still questions to be answered and too much talking to be done.



Für den Kaiser! Für das Volk! Für Rheinland!

Hochachtungsvoll,
Traudel Habermeyer
Oberleutnant der Kaiserlichen Rheinwehr

I'm fine now, Trau. Thank you so much for your concern.
Your colleagues at Wildau thankfully pitched in my local distress call, and reluctantly plucked the sad scraps of my Falchion along with my pod, and the poor thing has been charred and melted almost beyond recognition. After that, it was all about paying the murkiest officer on the station to ferry every single piece they could find off to New Augsburg for repairs, there's a couple of things in there that are meant for discreet eyes only. N-no offense of course.

Thankfully though, I came prepared. I have a more subtle ship, and hopefully I'll do a better job at being helpful next time. Callsign's still a work in progress, but I'll be sure to let you know.
