Hey, it's Elise.

Attached is the file of the thing. I guess I've already covered all the relevant context.

All in good time. Let me check if the data is good first.

That - and I may be... mildly distracted right now.

Naturally, you know that I'll hunger for more information, should you come across anything.

Rev;

Hey.

Do you have some kind of doppelganger who is using your name and an IMG transmission IFF operating in the eastern Omicrons?
Because I was harassing such a person earlier. It's just too much of a coincidence, with the the name, and the incredibly awkward demeanor. Which matches your incredibly awkward demeanor.
Anyway, if you're fucking with me, I might kill you, if not, you might be dealing with an imposter situation.

I just noticed what the last line was I copied from our last transmission. I'll just keep it there.

Give me money,
~ Elise

Wait -- huh. An impersonator? I knew my reputation preceded me, but not like this.

Hm... What did they say?

Oh - Nonono - wait, this is perfect actually. Let them run around, it'll throw off my foes who try to ferociously hunt me down. If the Order starts chasing these doppelgangers, it might be a good thing. Unless it's a ploy of the Order...? Can't say I've heard of them trying to impersonate me before. Got any info? Names?

Rev;

I didn't get much out of them. They claim their name is Sulwyn, they're a scout for the Guild. Their Piranha was an old 22nd BHG asset that they had refurbished at Freistadt. That part at least kind of checks out, the 22nd were a real wing and they did fly light fighters.

Anyway the whole thing had a suspicious vibe to it and I gave them kind of a hard time, but it's entirely possible that I'm just being paranoid, too.
I'll just keep my eyes open.
