From one scientist to another, I would very much like to give you the benefit of the doubt. However, there are protocols to be kept for the greater good.

As an institution of science and the pursuit of knowledge, Ravenholm is not in the business of providing highly valuable and potentially dangerous materials to just anyone claiming to be a scientist, nor does it make a habit of providing such materials to the potential benefit of possible enemies of the Rhein.

Before anything is to happen, we will require a full extent of what research will be done on the Liquid Cardamine - to satisfy the ethical and safety concerns of turning over dangerous materials to a self-admitted agent of the LSF - and access to the fruits of the research being done. While you have stated that you would rather keep your research a closely guarded secret, it would be severely negligent of us to exercise any less than the utmost vigilance as far as this nature of research is concerned. Naturally, we would also feel most comfortable if the research is carried out within a laboratory administrated by either my organization, or by my benefactors.

As for your rather... fluid... identity, I suppose we can all appreciate the need for anonymity in this day and age. So long as the research itself is certain to pose no threat to Rheinland, and provides enough of a benefit to us, identity can be overlooked.

If and only if my conditions have been met, will you be permitted to access the material you seek.

Sincerely,
Diogenes Heinlein, PhD
