[To]:Defence Intelligence Staff [From]:Boudica, [SIS] [Subject]:Annabelle Mychaela Heinrich [Encryption]: High
Initiated contact while under alias with asset 'Krsnik', without displaying SIS or any Bretonian lawful credentials. Used a secondary objective to divert his attention from my primary objective that was personal first hand review data on Annabelle Mychaela Heinrich. Here is the excerpt of said exchange of messages.
"Heinrich is a woman of respect, a matriarch, her men don't obey her out of fear, they need her. I've heard her as being described as many things in my time circling the sector, some call her an embodiment of fury. I've had the honor of meeting her personally and working with her, and in the years that I've known her, she hasn't changed much as a person, though something about her is clearly different."
"I would say I'm surprised, but I'm not. For what I'm going to tell you I expect complete anonymity, no citing the contributing source of this information and no asking me to revise or repeat it. I'll tell you about Heinrich, or at least what I myself have had the ability to observe of her, rather obviously it's not going to be anything capable of bringing harm to her influence."
"I've never been sure of what Heinrich's motivations are, but I assume she does have some given her level of conviction and occasional ruthlessness in carrying out the Hessian agenda, or at times, her agenda. As a Hessian, you follow her every word and work towards her approval, there is nothing else. As an enemy of the Hessen, you fear her, you dread the sight of the black wings of an Odin in your space. She influences the masses through fear, not just of threats left dormant but of swift and brutal violence."
"She controls the space around her even in a neutral or friendly environment and is never without her detachment of personal guards. The sort that I would most likely fail to overcome in a direct confrontation unless I resorted to tactics that would most likely result in my own death as well as theirs. If disrespected or feeling insulted, Heinrich is perfectly capable of being an aggressive negotiator and will use her raw strength and intimidating presence to her advantage, letting the fear off-set the confidence of any overly paid Statesman."
"Heinrich will occasionally lead her men in the field whenever she deems necessary, and in such instances she'll lead by example, often being the largest threat among the combating forces, she does not allow her position as the apex of Hessen authority to dull her skills as a weapon of war, that would be unwise of her. And though I have never observed any major weaknesses in the facade she upholds, she's only Human. And as of late I've not seen her without a strange apparatus attached to her face and mounted on her waist. As to what it is, I don't know, but perhaps her absence was more than a mere vacation and due to a credible threat on her life and stiff opposition from within her own ranks."
