Namura-san;

I have spent much time in flight recently, and some of the developments I was involved in you already know about. I believe it is no stretch to say that in terms of finding sympathizers, gathering information, and striking against the enemies at the door, the recent weeks have been a success.

I am in need of assistance on a couple of matters.
First, as you have witnessed I have spent much time with some of the separated flock, that was divorced from the Mindshare - the ones we identify as "Vagrants". Their capabilities at hyperspace manipulation are truly incredible, and it had recently occurred to me that it may not be impossible for their sensory adaptations to interface with human hyperspace technology.
Truth be told, I'm nowhere near an expert at xenobiology, and I am desperate to learn more. I find myself in an awkward position in which strictly human research is inadequate and limited in perspective, while their own characterizations are frankly difficult to process in a conventional learning fashion. I would like to know if there is an archive or any sort of program that I might access that can help me answer some of the questions I have in a way that's compatible with the way I'm capable of learning.

The other matter is comparatively more mundane. I stumbled upon a very old acquaintance, he had some useful information and offered more still, and I offered him a favor in return.
He asked about an individual, a certain "Sakurai Augus", female, Blood Dragon background. Apparently he had reason to believe that she was involved with the Light. If I can bring him any information about his lost love or whatever she was to him, it may be fruitful in the future.

In service of the Light always,

- Katherine Pennybrooke
