I'm glad to see the Ingenuus back up to speed, and that you and your crew were not harmed after the events of Minor. Unfortunately for myself, it was not such. I was rendered unconscious for a few days. However, I have recovered.
As time goes on, our two organizations see more and more of eachother, be it simple escort work, or joint expeditions. Of course, such endeavors have incidents that occur, yet that is to be expected in our line of work. Now to me, I see plenty of potential for our two people to work together. In what, you might ask? I'm certain by now after the few escapades we've undertaken together, you're aware that we are heavily interested in technology, the Nomads, and quite a variety of research and scientific fields. Not only do we share an interest in research and development, but we have the means to defend ourselves and others, as shown in defense of Freeport 11.
With this, I hope to see a stronger bond grow between the Ingenuus Research Group and Battlegroup Auxesia. There is much we have to offer one-another. I look forward to your response.

Good evening Curator -
We are safe and sound, thank you for your concern.
Regarding your proposal for our two organizations t' grow a stronger bond, that indeed sounds appealing. But, we have received startling reports as well from our contacts. Rumors such as your leader was once a higher up within the Core organization that has swept through and slaughtered men women and children in Delta. I was aware of some association with the Core for Auxesia gain, but was not aware of the deeper connection.
The most worrisome rumor though, is somehow being connected t' the Nomads. While we indeed study and research Nomad technologies and the like, this surpasses anything known, and frankly has me quite worried. In fact, that would explain much as t' why, on our exit from the Nomad system, the two vessels were rendered silent for such a long time.
Tell me, Curator, how much truth is there t' these rumors? You wish for a stronger bond between us. That is only possible when trust has been gained, and right now, I am not sure whether we can extend that level of trust.
I await your response, and I hope you can shed some light.
Due to the personal nature of these questions, The Keeper herself will be responding.
However, I can assure you, while some of the rumors hold a small bit of truth, the nature of others who hear such tend to twist things in their favor. You may not take my word for it, but you're aware of our opposition to the Core. We've interdicted their Sigma patrols, and House operations following the events of Delta. I cannot share more, hence the Keeper's intention on becoming involved in this discussion.
It’s true that I cannot deny my known for my position in the Core as a Guildkeeper then as Guildmaster, which eventually lead me to leaving the Core after assuming such position. Of course, I am no longer linked with them in any way besides holding some vital data that I downloaded before leaving. (Naturally, things change, and this data could be well out of date by now. )
As for the claims of me destroying and slaughter families? Not true. I never harmed children. Unless the Corsairs or the Order let children pilot war vessels, heh. If anything, I did save some children while I was undercover on Crete, sacrificing my water for them, if that sentence holds any value to it.
Either way, in my mindset back then, I had a job, and I had to get it done. It may be true that I was ruthless and very… empowering when it came to executing out my plans, but, those days are behind me, I’m no longer that same person from then. But in heart, I really wish to change and to be a different person from what I was then. Heartless, cruel and ‘efficient’ - as the Core taught me to be. But that is no longer the case, and I only wish to help, than to harm.
About the Nomadic stuff? Eh…It’s true that we harbour some Nomadic technology and posses quite a few… knowledgeable factors of them… uh...
I really don’t feel safe saying about it in open communications. Would it be possible that we could possibly talk about this in person? I can explain the scenario as to what occurred back in Zeta but I must beg of you for privacy about this topic.
Oh, and some uh… unfortunate appearances on news networks if you’re interested in seeing validation of me being in the Core, I guess.

Good day Raven -
I appreciate your honesty. That does speak volumes, but again - given the recent circumstances, you must understand my hesitation regarding any dealings with the Ingenuus Research Group and the Auxesia.
With that in mind though, I'm open t' discussing this more privately. Where are you currently? I have some business t' attend t' aboard Ames Research Station, but once done there will be happy t' meet you, otherwise I'll see if Brandon Wright is free, as he has worked with you before.
I'm currently loitering within the Independant Worlds. I can easily make my way up north of Liberty on the Wraith - which I shall right now. I'm thankful you're able to speak about this in private. See you soon.
