Director Steiner,

As I live and breath truth be told its been so long I assumed you dead,

Thanks for the lead, I'll give the man a call and see what I can find out. However, your timing is impeccable. As I was working on a job a short while ago I came into contact with a Gallic National Intelligence agent going by the callsign "Trident". At this time no further contact has occurred outside the enclosed recording. Understand regardless of what you hear my loyalties still stand with the Bretonian Crown. However, I cannot deny the value of getting my foot in the door with the Gallic National Intelligence.

I'll keep my wits about me don't worry about me and I'll keep you in the loop.
