At that time, our "high quality technologies" were provided to a battleship captain seeking to release himself from the shackles of militarism and oppression. I simply gave you the tools to complete your mission, the freedom of choice belonged to you and your crew (those that you didn't kill I mean).
Mr Vertiga, you had this one opportunity to be entirely truthful to me but you wasted your chance. I guess it's time to reveal my cards then.
According to your claims you used this opportunity to involve yourself in the alien artifact extraction. There is a certain truth to your statement but that is not the whole truth. For example, this does not explain the numerous entries your battleship has produced in the Universal Ship Identification system (USI) throughout the summer, the last entry of your battleship dating back to August 11th.
In fact, Ezrael, you have been very active on the Bretonia - Independent Worlds - Liberty axis route and not just with your battleship, the last entry I have on you is dating back to September 6th. That's not the way to Crete, by the way.
And there is one more thing. The leadership of Battlegroup Auxesia has provided us with undeniable evidence of your cooperation with the alien race. Your self-admitted interest and occupation in the alien artifacts industry is merely a coincidence, right? Or how you found such a reliable source of sponsors which sufficiently explains the source of your wealth. Whether you are one of them or merely a tool which advances their agenda, it matters little to me. While the Lane Hackers have rarely made business with their enemies, the only services we can offer to the nomads is evaporation, destruction and overwhelming annihilation. So I am afraid but I cannot provide information about Guildkeeper Lyell, as it is not part of the services we can offer to your masters.
The aliens' interest in her does not surprise me however, I also find Ms Lyell a quite talented individual. As for your innocent invitation to a remote location in Baffin system, I am afraid but I have to decline that too. Doctors tell me it might not be good for my health.. or body.
