To whom it may concern,

It has been so long I'm n...not sure who to address this to. A lot changes in, ur... two years. I am Dr. Thallia Elizabeth Thorn. Be...before my disappearance in Omicron Zeta I was a registered re...researcher with the Ingenuus Research Group running Lab 007. It was, urm... it was on a survey expedition to Planet Magur that the Zeta jumphole closed behind me and my team. Without the correct communication equipment installed nor jump tech we were lost.

Un...until recently. Awoken from cryo in a hospital on Cambridge, it has taken me a little time to reorient myself before contacting yourselves. Would it be possible to have access to Lab 007 once more, so that I may continue m...my work there?

In case the pa...passage of time has led one of those interns in HR deleting m...my employment records, please find some of my previous work contained in the data packets attached to this communication.

May the stars keep you, either way.

Dr. Thorn,
We're reviewed your records and reinstated your position. Your employment with us was never truly terminated, as you were held in a Missing In Action classification. It's my pleasure to welcome you back, and I hope you'll find a comfortable place in the fold. You sound a bit shaken up, so I'm authorizing paid R'n'R for you to readjust to current events. Take the time you need before resuming any projects or responsibilities you held.

Best of luck,

Dr. James Erzie
PhD, Theoretical physics, Thermodynamics
Ingenuus Research Group

Thank you very much, Dr. Erz...Erzie.

It is a heart-warming feeling to see that I was no...not given up to too early, and I count my lucky stars for the paid R'n'R. I can state with more than a degree of ce...certainty that Magur makes for an absolutely terrible holiday de...destination. Until th... the bigwigs at Planetform work out what to do with it anyway.

I'm currently downloading the groups signature packets...but, ur on the to...topic of current events, what is the current status of the Research Group? Has the op...operation grown? Did the anomalous structure in Delta reveal any of its secrets?

Dr. Thorn,
Ingenuus has grown mostly in influence. We hold a significant presence in the houses, specifically Liberty, and we continue to hold influence in Omicron Theta and Omicron Kappa. Sales of our signature power cell has continued to fund our expansion, funding campaigns for our research on many fronts. We've mended relations with Core and Order, despite their trespasses, we move to stop the war in the Omicrons, treating each party equally. Beyond that, we have running deals to support our research at Ames through Port Tacoya, and we've established contact with a number of interesting persons and artificials. Auxesia has supported some of our research endeavors, although only to pre-approved persons.

Aside from Ingenuus, the anomalous structure in Delta, if I remember correctly, has been determined to be an Azurite reactor, which has free-floating Azurite gas for our harvesting methods. We use the element in a large portion of our work, and we continue to find its limits. I'm not sure where you fall in the plane of things, as I've spent my fair share with my head in the dirt to keep my own skin.

I hope I've answered your questions,

Dr. James Erzie
