[Noelyci founded a company, later blackmailed out of it... He's coming back to reclaim what was his.]
I'm back... had to resign my commission to do it, but I'll never stop being what I am. An intelligence operative and analyst. Even more so now with my gifts... I had a hard time writing the letter to the High Command of the 7th. I don't like leaving behind the community, though they will still be friends and commrades, I won't be included in the planning, the quiet get-togethers. I've seen it before.
But, my family, my employees, the foundation I built is being threatened... and I truly don't believe Nicolye knows how to fight a war. He's a competent manager and I hope it doesn't come down to a battle over what's mine. I founded the company to protect those under my care, those I had obligations to. It's time to reveal the strength inherent in that vow. He can't do that...
Commander C. of the Imperial Garrison near Amethyst Vale was a bit put out that I was using the public communications channel of that city. Accused me of pirating the signal. I took great pleasure in telling him I was a corporate citizen and had the right to use it. The poor man really can't engage in a battle of wits worth a damn. I had him sputtering like a holo-comedy copper. It really was quite an amusing bit of time. He bears keeping an eye on of course... but he's easy to distract...
J. had a bit of a problem with me coming back, thought I had come to take something away from Nicolye. It's funny, she talked on an open comm channel when she took the trouble to have him hide it from the rest of the company... most likely Z. Of course, I have an obligation to Z., my sister, but I recognize the need for everyone to keep secrets and gently commed her privately to let her know her rashness... she accepted it well... I think I may have turned her into an ally by telling her more than most know about how I was forced out in the first place. That may have been unwise.
