Kon'nichiwa.

I believe you wanted to share something with me, but since then you fell silent.
Also... i remember you having some concerns about your family. Are you sure you would not want me to take them aboard of Sparta?
I can arrange that, just say a word.

Aoi:

Thank you again for your offer. I am deeply appreciative of it. However, I am still hoping that getting to that point can be avoided. It all depends on the success of our current mission.

You will find attached a decryption key for Union computer systems. It will give you the same access as I have, but with a few restrictions:

- Access to data is read only
- Access is only to data, with no access to operational control systems
- The ability to issue communications on the Union's behalf is prohibited

Until we've spent some time working together and trust has built between us fully, I hope you will understand my caution.

Unfortunately, I must also ask you to add to your list of targets. The Red Hessian Army has now communicated their intent to annihilate the Union, as a result of Corin Frei's actions. Any information we can obtain regarding their goals and objectives, or intelligence that would allow us to force them to back down on their ridiculous ransom demands, would be appreciated.

The sooner we can gather this information, the better. Keeping my family and the Union safe is my only objective, and I'd like to avoid any further bloodshed.

Thank you for all of your help with this. I will, of course, keep you informed as the situation changes.

Gratefully,
Hunter

Aoi:

I have recruited another independent party to the cause. His name is Isaak Melor, and he goes by the call sign Zlato.

I doubt you two will need to be in touch, but I wanted you to be aware he is an ally in our shared objectives, should you come across him.

Respectfully,
Hunter
