I wouldn't usually reach out to you on the neural net like this, but I'm getting a little worried about our mutual buddy, and me getting worried ain't a common occurrence! Hah! I ran into two ladies the other day, a freelancer and a Lane Hacker, and the former (far more charming!) lass apparently knows Sable! Said she'd left Kusari for 'somewhere else.' Now, usually I wouldn't pay too much heed to Sable's little adventures, but we've been keeping in touch lately and now she's not messaged me in two weeks! I asked her little AI companion - I'm sure you know the one -, and he says her last neural net log registered on the 28th of March!
So, I'm a little concerned. Sable's not one for keeping in touch regularly, but this long without a sign of life is a bit odd, even for her. Now, from Kusari, I'd expect her to head on over to the Taus. Home sweet home, you know? Sigmas and Omicrons are the other way, and I know for a fact that she'd hate to set foot in the latter again. But before I pop off to the Taus to look for her, I wanted to ask you what your thoughts were! Any idea where she might be? I'm sure you're as concerned for her if not more!

Hey, Beige
Color me surprised, I never expected to have a comm by you here, but hey.. it was a good surprise! Now about Olivia..
I wouldn't be worried at all about her not getting in touch, she doesn't tend to keep in touch that much, especially if she has left Liberty to take a break. It wouldn't be a break if she was reminded of it everyday, would it?
That being said, the fact that she hasn't logged her account for that long is a little worrying. So as far as I remember she went to Kusari, then came down to Colorado for our ten minute meeting and then left for the Sigmas. The last time I heard from her was when she was in the Sigmas, I can't remember if she told me where she'd go next.
She's probably alright, maybe she's on a long assignment again and is unable to log her account, I guess. Regardless, I'll send a comm her way. I'll let you know what's up when she gets back to me, alright?
Take care.

Hey there, cappy!
The Sigmas, huh? Hah! Never would've guessed that's where she's heading out to! Guess I had her figured all wrong!
Still doesn't explain her absence from the neural net though. I guess we'll see what's what when she replies to your ping! If she replies. I just hope she ain't in trouble out there and depending on me to come and save the day. Hah!
Thanks for helping out and keep me in the loop!

Hey, Beige
You're not gonna like this, but I -did- receive a reply. It wasn't exactly the reply I'd call nice, though. All I received was an automated error response telling me the recipient's neural net address is no longer in service.
That does worry me a bit, but I still think she's going to be alright. Regardless, if you find anything useful out there let me know.
Take care.

That sure doesn't sound good! No reason for Sable to disable her neural net account herself, which really only leaves unpleasant options for what's up with her! But don't you worry, Vic and I are all packed and raring to go!
So don't you worry one bit, we'll find her in no time! Beige Guarantee™!
Just thought I'd drop in a little progress update of sorts, in case you're curious! The talking calculator and I popped off to Honshu, since that's where he said Sable's last neural net log was registered. Turns out to have been a solid start! Aomori's dockmaster revealed that Sable hired up to escort a transport to a luxury liner in Sigma-19, so that's where we're headed right now! Who knows, maybe the ol' rogue's just spending a hard-earned retirement in Orbital-provided luxury! Hah!
Don't call him a talking calculator, that's rude! He has a name, Beige. I'm glad you could at least find something about Olivia, let's hope you find her chilling on some desolate base in Sigma-19 and everything turns out okay.
Keep me updated, will ya?
Good luck.

So, Vic and I suffered a slight setback in our investigation. Apparently, whatever transport Sable was escorting never arrived at its destination. In fact, it was never scheduled to! Mysterious, ain't it? We're heading back to Honshu now to ask around some more, find out what's what. Looks like finding the ol' girl will be more difficult than I thought!
That sounds odd and definitely not reassuring. The transport not making it to it's destination could mean that the convoy fell victim to an attack, but it not being scheduled to..? That's just odd.
I don't know what to make of this, I guess we'll find out after you get back to Honshu. Be careful out there, please.
Take care.

I've got good news and bad news! Which do you want first? Good? Gotcha! We found a solid clue as to where Sable might have wandered off to! Bad news is that it involves an illegal job and the Omicrons! Probably shouldn't reveal too many details about it - I bet the people responsible would like to keep a rather tight lid on their operation.
Vic and I are heading out there right now! Not looking forward to it too much, but hey, if that's what it takes to find the ol' girl, so be it! Not sure when I'll be able to contact you next, neural net coverage tends to be hit-and-miss out there. But I'll be sure to update you as soon as possible!
