Mission command would like to report that the infiltration and subsequent destruction of the 'Nimbus' offshoot of the Cult of Fluidity has been carried out according to instructions - our agents were able to detain a high-ranking member of the cult, and draw out sufficient information on the branch's whereabouts for our team to organise a hit on Nimbus's base of operations, during which the majority of the cultists were terminated. Champion Mordelia would like to offer special commendation to Champion Aurora for the ruthless efficiency with which she conducted the interrogation of the captive. Would recommend promotion; would also suggest that the Champion's skills be used to train upcoming generations of interrogators.

'Nimbus Nine? Nimbus Nine, come in; this is Nimbus Fourteen, do you read me? Nine…? Damn. I've lost contact with Nimbus Nine.'

'We're getting a report in now, sir; says she was captured by a cell of government agents en route to planetside; we believe they've taken her in for interrogation.'

'Shit. Was it ASHFROG? Get an evacuation order out, just in case. You know how people talk when ASHFROG catch them…'

'Roger that, sir. Would you like me to report Nimbus Nine's capture to Failing Light? She was one of our best interrogators, after all.'

'Yes. You don't happen to know Nine's real name, do you?'

'I believe it's Aurora, sir.'
