To Maria of Ca...Canaan | Encrypted

Ma..Maria, it has been an exceedingly lo...long time! Ho...how are you? I heard you me...met with Maren and Ezrael recently, they told me yo...you finally hi...hitched up with th...that guy you told me about way ba...back when we first met in Delta? Th...the one Lexi teased you about? Te...tell the story, spill th...the beans, wh...whatever women excited fo...for their friends say.

Th...there is quite an exciting project on the horizon, one I wa...was hoping to ask you if you would be able to he...help out. I'm going to rebuild Lexi. Properly th...this time, without the gradual degradation to world-devouring nihilism. Fo...for this I wi....wish to ask a favour. Wo...would you be able to ge...get your hands on an AI Drone for me? Th...the AI inside nee...need not be present, but, ur... the hardware and shell would be crucial. If I ca...can help, or yo...you know how I ca...can get one myself pl...please do let me know. I pl...plan to retro-fit the drone sh...shell.

Loo...looking forward to hearing from you, and kind regards,
Thorn

Uhm... Thallia... It sure has been a long time... I've been alright, given the circumstances. But you... you seem worried, or agitated, to say the least....
Anyhow, you know Vertiga and his fiancee? Yes, James and I met them in Omega-49, discussing some things.
She suddenly remembers what Thallia insinuated on, as she said the name "James" and waves her hands around in a "no" manner
B-but that's not James I was talking about when we first met! Jesus wept, he's like thrice my age!
She calms down, clearing her throat before continuing
No... Edge still hasn't responded to any of my comms... it's been so long since I last saw him....
She notices her blue mood and clears her throat yet again
A-a-anyway.... about Lexi... I'm afraid I can't help you like that....
The Gammu AI have been much more territorial recently, since the attack on Freeport 11 by the Core...
There are even simplecoded units now patroling Gammu's vicinity with even Harvester class vessels keeping it safe from intruders.
They are checking everything. And even though we can still rather freely pass Gammu and - in emergencies - land on it.... they would notice and not hesitate to attack us, if we were to try and sneak a Sentinel Class outside the orbit of Planet Gammu. Especially one without a programmed Core Unit held.
She sighs, massaging her forehead
I could maybe try and convince James and Alex to work with you on Lexi's reconstruction, but I can't get you anything directly from the Gammu AIs, other than raw resources.
She stands up from her seat which she took the video-reply in and walks over to a cage. She sighs as she opens it
We really need to catch up some time... It's been too long since I had another person to talk to privately...
She sits back down on her chair, with an orange wyvern-like creature on her shoulder. She points at it
I mean Spess here has been nice to keep me company, but... You know... Ah, I'm rambling...

I'll see what I can do, but I can't do too much. I'm sorry.

That is a shame. It is co...concerning to hear the Gammuian's are acting in a more aggressive manner. O...one had hoped after seeing glimmers of hope th...that they had begun a peaceful integration in...into the area that the entities would, ur... have put aside that ghastly trait. Harvester vessels... th...the first sign that they begin to mo...move from a defensive stance to an off...offensive one; action should be taken. It do...does put a spanner in the works on th...that project. Perhaps then, urm... ok I need to go back to the drawing board on th...that one.
D...do you have any sa...sample of Gammuian coding?

We sh...should catch up. I am, ur... in the Omicron area rather fr...frequently - I'm co...considering setting up a lease on some warehouse sp...space on th..the Freeport to facilitate some, ur... work. Whilst I'm th...there discussing the details, perhaps you wo...would like to join me for a kaffee lunch?
