I hope you have your affairs dealt with, for I truly hope your mother is safe. Though I do have a job for you, in benefit of the SIS. Forlorn are becoming a power unto itself. I want eyes, ears and hands if need be in it.
Their most approachable avenue, for the local reports is one called Stenn, however several contacts do often appear in the Manhattan area, working for the local Liberty forces in removing.. distasteful dangers from the Liberty core system. This is your best bet to mingle and have a taste for yourself with their dealings.
I must advise they are in contact with several factions, so do expect their loyalties and mouths to be... ever changing. I am saying this for you own safety. If you ever need extraction, I have a SIS unit on stand-by. There is a personal tracker for yourself in Ames, under my alias, Titanium. Just let the sentence "Unbreakable Titanium" reach my handler, and I will act upon it.
For the meantime, Ms. Sweetwater appears to have emerged in the New York system, two weeks ago. I am sorry for the delay, but I needed confirmation by Liberty lawful forces. For that, and for the sake of the mission, a new handler should be taken.
We will be expecting a report from you, within the week.
For Bretonia, Commodore Kaze Nelson Reidman Dagon.
Alright, had the feeling I could get away from this. Time to work.
You have mentioned their apparent shady dealings with God-knows-who, what's the info you got about it so far? Do they shake hands with enemies of Bretonia? Gallics? Before I dive into the unknown, I'd welcome some more information about these guys. Been out of the loop for several years to even understand the current balance of powers, you see.
As for... Sweetwater, I don't think she's got anything to do with this task yet? Other than that I don't plan to interfere in her affairs unless you have a radical reason to have me doing so.
Forlorn have ties with the Colonials, Liberty and it seems, Auxesia. No proven fact on that last bit. As it stands, no enemies of Bretonia. But my grandmother always said to keep two eyes on your enemy and another set on your friends. As it stands, Forlorn as still to prove themselves friends or enemies of Bretonia.
That is the why of this assignment. Poke them, talk to them, break bread with them. Find their reason to exist. The why and who at the moment signals to benevolent, within the margin of the law, mercenaries. I want find if they are more or less than that. Our records at the moment regarding them are simply empty and lacking. That is why I am asking you this. It is an easy, shoot the breeze assignment to ease you in the work of an SIS asset.
As for Ms. Sweetwater, it seems she has little to no recollection of her past doings as a Reaver. I just mentioned since your path may cross hers in the nearby future within Liberty. Better safe than sorry, yes?
Good luck.
For Bretonia, Commodore Kaze Nelson Reidman Dagon.
