It's been a long time. If you receive and read this message, then I would like to ask to meet you face to face...or ship to ship in open space. I have been looking for you for a very long time. You may wonder who this is...I cannot give any details, for I am being hunted. I would have sent a communication sooner, but forever I have not, due to the risk of giving myself away to my pursuers. But, your associate has recommended this, so here we are.
I am the one who willingly abandoned their own.
I am the self-exile, the insane anomaly.
I am the one who vanished without a trace after one final farewell.
I certainly remember my mind being left alone to be plagued by your kinds energy, a slow painful decay.
I am not the same individual you once knew, I have embraced technology, I have evolved, I have died, and I have been reborn. I do not cling to the past too dearly, so elaborate this:
Why do you seek me? What do you hope to accomplish? The Vagrants hold the answers you seek, not I.
Every message I transmit is one step taken closer to danger.
You know how we function. The old one was characterized by ignorance and rampant curiosity. The one you hear now is fueled by resentment, and distaste.
But at the moment of separation, one thing was the same between both: the respect and gratitude we have towards you.
There is nobody in this void we trust more than you. It is for that reason I seek you out. It is from you that I desire a purpose, a goal to reach, an objective to fulfill.
If you do not fondly remember the past, then forget about the past, and instead focus on what I may do for you in the present, and future.
