My name is Katherine Pennybrooke, I'm a freelance researcher and explorer originally from Cambridge. My educational background is in atmospheric physics, though in recent years I've mostly pursued other ventures in the edge worlds.
As it so happens, I was witness to an incident in the Omicrons involving this so-called Cult of Technology. I did manage to obtain a certain amount of encrypted data archives from the remains of their installation and ships, as well as the scanning data from my own ship.
Frankly, most of it is unlikely to be of much use to me, as I simply don't have the expertise to analyze it myself, and since weapons and shipboard technology isn't something I intend to devote myself to, I'm unlikely to reach out to my connections for assistance with it.

I don't normally work with house agencies, but considering your presumably vast resources and limitless access to high technology and information, I'd be hard pressed not to at least consider it. I'm not sure what you're willing to offer in return, but if you're interested in principle perhaps we can arrange something.

Esteemed Senior Agent Tracer,

my name is Ezrael Vertiga. My science officer redirected this message to me as I am probably able to give you what you look for. My ship, the Apahanta, is one of the few ships that usually react to Cult of Technology incursions in areas we can legally access. We had numerous encounters with the Cultists and in fact have a lot of digital footage, scans, salvaged blueprints and even a few prototypes of Cultist-related technology in our possession. As for the specific technology you mentioned, the Cult of Technology has been recorded to be using advanced weaponry that can be compared to the following sirian counterparts:

ANC-2 "Nova" Antimatter Torpedo Launcher
‣ equipped on Bomber-type Cult of Technology Drones

"Nightmare" Battleship Missile Silo
‣ equipped on Carrier-type Cult of Technology VS-0074 Command Carriers

Additional to these, two rather unique missile-type weapon systems have been spotted as well:

"Heavy Torpedo" Launcher
‣ equipped on Gunboat-type and Explorer-type Cult of Technology Combat Vessels

"Titan" Missile Turret
‣ equipped on Carrier-type Cult of Technology VS-0074 Command Carriers

If you are interested, we could send you our data archive. In return, as that is probably the most simple solution, I would assume a payment of 100.000.000 Credits would be worth the package. While it would certainly be a blessing if you could arrange something that would permanently permit a foreign warship to legally move through Liberty, from Bretonia to Kepler and back, without the need of a pre-requested escort, I guess that is something that will remain out of question, which is fully understandable.

Alternatively, I wonder whether you would be able to have two women disappear from Liberty's criminal records. Entirely.

Senior Agent,

the women in question are Miss Nancy Sweetwater and Miss Maren von Westefeld. Miss Sweetwater used to be known as Sangria Reaver during their active times, however after she was caught and trialed by Kusari, she was permanently disabled by them. Now she suffers an extreme memory loss without any hint of recovery and faces the fact that she is still unwelcome to the four sirian houses. A friend of mine took care of her, however when she learned about her past, she moved to Liberty to try and broker a deal with one of your branches, apparently Agency 404, but was horribly treated by them. Which caused the other woman in question to extract her from Liberty, legitimatelly kidnapping an asset of 404 by doing so. While neither of them have received any note about anything related to that, it is obvious that after these events, both women are no longer welcome to Liberty. Out of sympathy for a friend of mine who took care of both women, I would like to change that.

If that would be possible for you to arrange, I would be inclined to transfer the full data package to you without a monetary compensation.

Senior Agent,

This sounds acceptable to me. Should you require any information for the sake of these reports to appear more realistic, that can be arranged, although I trust that the LSF has enough information on them. That goes for the aliases as well.

I ordered my science officer to compile a package for you, it should be ready within the next 24 hours. You will then receive the first half of the package, and once you fulfilled your part of the bargain, the other half. I believe that is fair, given you have the leverage to revert your part at any time.
