Indeed I did not expect your name to cross my desk.

Glad to know operative Silver performed her task, and her curiosity is rather only normal. I lost my temper in New York at the thought of your deeds so yeah it was cut short indeed. But apart from not expecting your name on my desk, i wasn't expecting it in the same sentence with the word "redemption". As an Admiral, the lives of navy men and women are most pricey to me. And just like that I may never be able to forget or forgive your deeds. But there's something about redemption. Personally I see justice in a pure from, so if it were for me, I would send you to put yourself in the line for the same thing that these men fought for. Earning your second chance through military service.

But as you can understand, I am just an Admiral, here to uphold this nation's Navy. Such decision is likely up to the juridical institutions rather than me. Meaning it's up to you to decide. To either stay away or face your past. In the end you either have to accept your choices or fight over to change them. Let me know.

Apart from that, is there something else you might need?

I think I wasn't clear enough.

What I mean is, clearing up your name requires a judge. I can only put your potential to better use, while at the same time you make up for your deeds by serving for the same people who's life you made harder, serving for Liberty. So in other words, I can offer a new start for you, under liberty where you will no longer be Nancy Sweetwater.

First up. Pilot skills, perhaps it doesn't have to be. Here we're looking for the whole set of things, not just your abilities on flying a spacecraft. An asset is not made up of just that. Second, the navy has a ton of protocols and regulations, but in the end it's also has a hierarchy. I know how to play my cards. But I can guarantee you that something like that is as unlikely as it gets. As I said. New start.

Now third. That's a good point. It all just sounds too good. Maybe perhaps we should've gotten on with it back in New York if it were for that. This is why I let you be escorted out instead. In fact I don't want you for the Navy either. Would be too official for you. Rather the likes of yourself, wasted potential with a bad biography go to a branch more discrete. If you don't believe me, then perhaps you can ask an old friend. Titanium should ring a bell.

Meet me at Ames Research Station. Date and time is your choice. For now I can only offer you my word. Take it or leave it Sweetwater. No one can make it on their own anyway, luck runs out eventually.

I think I have to remind you. Here you're dealing with Liberty and it's interests, so I'd rather put Bretonia aside. Your old friend isn't "Bretonia's will', but rather your next best friend.

I'll be at Ames. I'll be expecting.
