Takk,
I guess you'll probably understand that if your heritage runs in that direction - I did sort of spill my guts out when that thing was in my hold. My boss wouldn't take it off my hands, it was scheduled to go SWAT and than to the LSF. This situation goes way above my authority, but most of the good people are making sure the LSF isn't all over my life right now, all they seem to know is that it was lost as a result of combat interference from the Hellfire Legion.
Hopefully, the LSF doesn't get on my case, my boss isn't holding this over my head and wants me back to work. So I guess I have my life back, thanks for taking that off me, I don't know what would've happened if that thing was stuck in my hold much longer. I'm fine, at least while I'm awake, been having some strange nightmares but I'm guessing that's nothing out of the ordinary. Listen, I get what you did was right, but my job responsibilites are still a thing. For your sake, don't let me see you or anyone else in Liberty space - I'd rather avoid having more reasons for the LSF to breathe down my neck. Check in here, I don't think this is monitored, it's running a universal frequency - my mom's actually.
Speaking of which, mind keeping the whole Omega thing under wraps? I don't tend to mention my mom's background, it doesn't rub the neighbors the right way, especially considering her relatives in that region.
Thanks again for taking that thing away, I'm just a cop, not whatever you saw while that thing hijacked my brain.

Miss Kidman,
How nice of you to contact me after these... unfortunate circumstances. I trust everything is alright with you? With artifacts such as the one you had on your person when we first met, you are bound to draw in some unwanted attention from the LSF. But you are correct. After I was forced to engage you alongside a Hellfire Legion ship, you were downed. I destroyed the Nomad Cell, and made sure your pod was found by a passing patrol before completely vanishing from the area. I'd rather not have had to engage you in the end, but I couldn't allow you to take that thing out of my reach. I'll be keeping an eye on you myself to see if there aren't any lingering effects... from the shadows.
As for that thing about the Omegas. Being silent about things I hear is part of my job description. Rest assured your secret is safe with me. Once you live among the Order, you tend to notice all different kinds of backgrounds, but you have to accept each and every one of them and have to trust them to save your life when it comes to it. This kind of understanding seems lacking in the houses. But, before I start rambling on and on ill just press save and send this message at you.
Take care, and don't hesitate to reach out to me if you can use help.

This Galaxy is vast; its wonders and beauty are almost unfathomable. But the galaxy also hides dark secrets, some of which have lain dormant since the beginning of time itself. There is a danger in secrets, both in seeking and in knowing. Some things are meant to be hidden from view. Some mysteries defy understanding, and sometimes even the things we think we know are untrue. Some secrets should remain untouched.

Hey,
I'll be fine, thanks for taking note of me I guess. I haven't herd the best about your kind, maybe they were partly right given my ship was nearly totaled. But better my ship than my brain I guess. Random shit like this keeps revolving around me, maybe it's nothing out of the ordinary, no one will really tell me what is out of the ordinary around here.
Anyways, thanks, I'll consider checking in with you if everything goes to shit. It's quite obvious the LSF was willing to do fuck all when they were supposed to take it off me. Sorry for sounding so pissed, maybe that thing's still leftover in my brain a bit. Anyways, just don't let me, or any other officer see you please. I'd rather not have to shoot more people for the time being considering what's just happened, but I have a responsibility.
Also, thanks again for leaving the Omega crap in the past.
