Matriarch Kiri Kiri gestured towards Irma when Chika arrived.
"This is Irma Bunt, Assassin of the Lane Hackers. It happened that the Sisterhood's transport vessels came up as a topic and I haven't spoken to you yet about the demise of the Yako. Yamada informed me of your acceptence of my offer to you to join us. Normally we have two trials to be admitted to our ranks, but I considdered the first one passed when you played out your part with the creation of the golden statue of Matsuda that now adorns this very hall. The second is just a formality since you are already infused with cardamine, but because the rites are sacred to us, you will need to pass it when the festival ends, or right now if you prefer.
Back to the Yako. I have seen the damage caused to it, so I will make you an offer. We got a brand new Aspis battletransport, obtained from the Cadiz Cartel for the support that we gave them. I want you to take command of the vessel and I will give you the rank of squad leader since you already proved to be competent in the field. After you have outfitted your new ship, bring a shipment of our best cardamine to Leiden base. Miss Bunt is their contact."
