Madameoiselle Brennan,

My apologies for the delayed response, there have been some recent developments in Gallia that have taken my time away from me. I merely wish to provide a follow up in regards to the meeting with our agent as well as to inform you that we have already started sending recon parties out from Mull to survey the Newcastle system. Our records on Newcastle in general are several years out of date, so we will be proceeding with a slow methodical observation of the system. As a part of our standard operating procedure I will be attaching a transcription of the flight log from our transport below. Have a good day.

Regards,
Duke
Director of External Operations

[30.06.2024 16:40:23] Veiled.Premise: Salut.
[30.06.2024 16:40:38] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Hello there.
[30.06.2024 16:41:15] Veiled.Premise: You are the one I am meant to be in contact with, oui?
[30.06.2024 16:41:45] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: I suppose. Though a transport is not quite what I expected.
[30.06.2024 16:42:19] Veiled.Premise: Yes, that is understandable. A transport such as this is rather more discreet.
[30.06.2024 16:42:28] Veiled.Premise: Plus, it can carry everything we need to.
[30.06.2024 16:42:49] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: I understand. Well, let us proceed, then - this intersection happens to see some occasional traffic.
[30.06.2024 16:42:58] Veiled.Premise: After you.
[30.06.2024 16:43:05] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: I wager you won't object to a little detour.
[30.06.2024 16:43:15] Veiled.Premise: Not at all.
[30.06.2024 16:43:59] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: We will not be taking the gate. Our jump hole is not far.
[30.06.2024 16:45:25] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: In the time before our rendezvous, we have established one thing.
[30.06.2024 16:45:38] Veiled.Premise: Oh?
[30.06.2024 16:45:54] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Bretonia's preparing for their impending return to Dublin. It won't be long before they make their move.
[30.06.2024 16:46:11] Veiled.Premise: Ah, very interesting.
[30.06.2024 16:46:16] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: We anticipate in the coming couple weeks.
[30.06.2024 16:46:30] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: That's beside the fact they involved foreign military in their scheme.
[30.06.2024 16:47:16] Veiled.Premise: They involved foreign military forces?
[30.06.2024 16:47:52] Notice: Armor Upgrades have been removed from the server. You will have received a full refund at purchase price.
[30.06.2024 16:47:56] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Liberty stays out of this, but I had reports of sightings of Kusari and Rheinland ships in Dublin, assisting the Armed Forces.
[30.06.2024 16:48:04] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: I've no doubt of their credibility.
[30.06.2024 16:48:43] Veiled.Premise: That's quite remarkable considering the recent straining of relationships between Rheinland and Bretonia.
[30.06.2024 16:49:23] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: I can only assume that straining didn't stop this from happening.
[30.06.2024 16:49:30] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Even if it was just a single gunboat.
[30.06.2024 16:50:01] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Either way... we anticipate the attack in the coming couple weeks and are steeling for it.
[30.06.2024 16:50:12] Veiled.Premise: Well, the issue has rather been with Bretonian corporations attacking Gallic ones in Cologne and Stuttgart.
[30.06.2024 16:50:24] Veiled.Premise: But yes.
[30.06.2024 16:50:28] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: My hands, too, usually are full with managing Mull's production lines.
[30.06.2024 16:51:19] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: It is just a short distance from here. Let's move.
[30.06.2024 16:51:58] Veiled.Premise: If things are as dire as you believe, GGallia may be able to offer some assistance, though it would at best be a token force.
[30.06.2024 16:52:19] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: There we are. The Mull base - home to Molly ingenuity.
[30.06.2024 16:52:41] Veiled.Premise: Rather larger than I was expecting.
[30.06.2024 16:52:59] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: They undoubtedly are. Bretonia's eager to secure their primary source of income, and other Houses - a steady supply of Gold.
[30.06.2024 16:53:10] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: It will get rough, so we will take any help we can get.
[30.06.2024 16:53:43] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: You should have the necessary clearance. Please proceed at your convenience.
[30.06.2024 16:53:55] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: My men aboard will show you the storage and the living quarters.
[30.06.2024 16:53:58] Veiled.Premise: Well, if you do not mind confirming everything through our already established channels.
[30.06.2024 16:54:15] Veiled.Premise: Then we could send a small force once that is established.
[30.06.2024 16:54:20] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Not at all, but I'll need some time to gather all the data.
[30.06.2024 16:54:27] Veiled.Premise: Of course.
[30.06.2024 16:54:37] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: It will not take more than a couple days, though...
[30.06.2024 16:55:03] Veiled.Premise: We've already heard through our IMG contacts that Dublin is going to be very busy soon.
[30.06.2024 16:55:05] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: ...either way, make yourselves comfortable. Don't hesitate to petition me as necessary.
[30.06.2024 16:55:19] Veiled.Premise: Much appreciated.
[30.06.2024 16:55:23] RPA|Nora.Rees.Brennan: Until then.
[30.06.2024 16:55:24] Veiled.Premise: We'll proceed now.
