Ohayo, Yume-san.

I apologize for my hasty departure. Please, convey a hearty word of peace to the Gen'an Cell.

The data package that I entrusted to you contains detailed ecological information on 17 worlds. They are all Class-K, Class-L, and Class-M planets that I have been surveying over the years. It is the fulfillment of one of the promises I made to my beloved aunt. She is now a retired tailor, still living in Kyushu. Her garments have been, for a long time, donated for free to orphaned young children.

For many years, I have been on a quest to find a very special settlement, not one of past glory as an archaelogist, but one of future hope. There are not many other candidate worlds left for me to visit. As I now approach the sunset of my years, so does my quest.

Easy it is for me to accept that this work would not be seen as valuable, but if this duty and its purpose captivates the interest of more, from the beautiful circle you belong to, please apologize to them if I am not easy to find or reach out to. I am still where I set off to on the day I asked this of Sister Yunoki - in the Lorraine system.

For your service, for your acceptance and fulfillment of my request - may you find a greater measure of joy in every tea cup.

Health to your brethren and cell leaders. Arigatou gozaimasu!
