Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Isaiah Steffen, Co-owner to the Aegis Initiative. Recently, after returning from vacation, an offer landed at my desk. One which describes the kill or capture of you, Princess. Now, I could simply say, "Sure, no problem." and invest a lot of time and effort into tracking you down, but I have a more unorthodox proposition for you, that would benefit both of us, should you be interested.

Monsieur Steffen,
My name is Commandant Lilou Beaulieu, and I speak for HRH Charlotte DeFrance on this matter.
Rest assured your communiqué has been received. The princess herself has taken an interest in hearing more, although she wishes it to be made abundantly clear that no agreement of any sort can possibly be reached before she is afforded more details.
You are invited to volunteer more information at your earliest convenience; for instance, the identity of the contracting party, as well as further expanding on the nature of your so-called proposition. Our patience for wastes of time is thin indeed; the princess DeFrance's is thinnest of all.
Cordialement,
Commandant-Adjutant BEAULIEU, Lilou

Firstly, as I'm sure you can guess, I won't be disclosing the contracting party to you.
As for the proposition however, it is as follows. As you know we are in the business of making credits. Credits from eliminating people. Something we are quite skilled at. For you, having to look over your shoulder so to speak, with that constant threat will make things difficult. So, simply put, how much is the Princess' life worth to you?
