"I've got everything I need, and I'll be arriving alone and utilizing your labs to work on this translation matrix. The distance Newport has from our local extra-stellar events, it will hopefully reduce the attention to our work from malicious parties.

"The data-drives i'll be carrying are the verified files from the Lane-Hacker leak, no alterations have been found, and these copies matches the checksum from other downloads we've made elsewhere. I'm anticipating a fruitful amount of discoveries into interfacing the DKV perception of Jump-Space into our records, and I deeply wish it to be in praxis too.

"I'll be bringing along what samples my tribe have, relevant "Tome Scriptures" we saved during the civil war and other operations. these will be on loan from the Consecrated Archive from Tennstedt... We do expect them back in one piece, but fate tends to have its way sometimes.

"I may come and go on a frequent basis, don't mind me if I appear in the labs for one hour, and then vanish the next. As you've probably heard with our mutual friends, we're currently embroiled in an interloper who is ready to take advantage of jump-space, in an effort to seek the demise of Humanity... And maybe assist those into the total corruption of Sirius itself.

"I may have a proposition for you, although that can be discussed in person, as I don't even trust data signals that go through FTL systems these days."

Civil Se...s...Servant,

Before we co...continue discussing this very exciting project I need to share a recent development with you. I'll di....share it in full as I am keen to ma...make sure that you understand my motivations a....and have the opportunity to decide whether you wish to continue this work with me in an open, honest fashion.

As of the la...last cycle, I have been recruited and accepted into a branch of the Liberty Navy. As part of Task Force Akhetaten's Special Operations Group within the forty-sixth fleet, I shall be co...concerning myself with research & development and the various logistical aspects that facilitate that function. I ha...have made this decision for a numbers of reasons.

The first is a ma...matter of personal safety. I can sense the wolves closing in. I re...recently learnt that my name was leaked in an intelligence share. That puts my life in danger in a way I can't protect myself from alone and only compounds th...the fear I felt every cycle. Someone I have come to see as a friend offered me a lifeline.

Secondly, re...resources and access. Th...this wasn't a primary re...reason for my decision, but it is a significant benefit. Manufacturing capability, up to date equipment, so on and so on. An issue I ha...have also had to contend with is a la...lack of personal means and this is a game changer.

Thirdly... well, th...this is my idealist side talking now. The system the Houses construct promotes conflict and suffering, yes, but th...the people within them, on the whole... these people I've chosen to work with are good people. Good people who, if the cycle of conflict would give an opportunity, might make a better world. People th...that I believe, if calamity were to come knocking, th...they'd step up for the right reasons. Good reasons. I fa...fail when trying to be as articulate as you in such things bu...but perhaps I can do more good to humanity and Sirius within it's structures than without. Together, we might leverage both sides of the coin.

[sighs]

So, th...there it is. I have been offered a degree of freedom and autonomy of action that I believe will enable us to keep the ball rolling. However, of course, the role will come with certain duties, obligations, and oversight. I still wish to wo...work with you. My question now is, are you st...still willing to work with me?
