Guten tag Frau Dr.Thorn,
Since our first meeting in Baffin, i sense a bit of nervousness in your voice. I realy hope, i'm not the reason for your uneasiness. Or is it Damian? I know, he can be very complicated sometimes. And his behavior is just... terrible. But you should know, people in our position must be very careful. We must be sure, our contractor is trustworthy enough for these tasks we have to offer.
I speak about a reconnaissance mission. I need you to be my scout in Rheinland. Your task is simple... Find the subjects and collect as many information as possible. We will take care of the rest. You will help us to collect intel about a terrorist organization, with whom we always had trouble with.
Are you interested?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Hauptkommissar Erika Keller
Büro der Marineintelligenz, Kommissariat
Your contractor is trustworthy, I assure you. My ner...nervousness comes from not knowing those who would pull the puppet strings. When one trades in curiosities, it is natural to be curious about those contracting you, especially when contracts are not re...reciprocated. We on the 'Aceso' make for poor 'pawns'... That, urm... that being said, you can rely on us. We share similar enough in... interests for this not to be an issue.
'Terrorist' is such an intriguing word... We are interested, though naturlich we would need more information about those you seek. Who are these 'terrorists'? Do you, ur, have any dossiers or information that'll aid the task? Will I, urm... have access to communication relays within Rheinland? As I'm su...sure you're aware, means and approach need to match the context.
I'm glad, that we can rely on your cooperation. And with terrorists i meant... the Order. We do not have enough information about their methods, hideouts or their plans in Rheinland. But fact is, their presence disturbs us. It is therefore in our interest, to remove this unwanted Gesindel. That's why we contact you. We need somebody, who will observe their movement for a while. That's all i can say.
Should you accept our offer, we will grant you access to a secured military communication relay in New Berlin. You can always reach me via privat comms or in this channel. But avoid open channels and always encrypt your transmissions. I suggest you don't contact the Büro directly, if you want to submit your collected evidences. The agents there, are not aware of your mission and your reports would go lost in their mess. Send them to me instead.
Do you have questions?
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Hauptkommissar Erika Keller
Büro der Marineintelligenz, Kommissariat
The Order... a group I can understand animosity towards. We accept your assignment. The access to a secured relay seals the deal... so to speak. There's, urm, quite a bit that can be done with a military-grade communications relay. The boundaries of communication are understood; any data will be transmitted for your eyes only. We have no fur...further questions and shall be in contact in due time. If you'd be as so kind as to, ur, send those access codes we'll get cracking.
Mit... ur... mit freruendlicthen... oh darn it... May the Stars keep you.
