Frau Castillo.
You conveyed a hope for sincerity, I endeavor to provide you with the same. I'm sorry I could not defeat both your assailants, I gave the second a skirmish for his life, but he crippled my engines on his last pass. The Premier's swift intervention is the only reason you and I are both talking. Clever usage of his tractor-beam allowed your escape pod to be pushed into Thames' hangar bay and out of the weapons fire.
I've been pulled back to New Moscow for whatever passes as a reprimand for the Coalition's highest military officer, evidently falling in combat and risking my life, in addition to ignoring a sworn enemy has not gone over well with some of the McIntoshists who are usually ever so eager to support me.
I trust you weren't wounded too badly?
