Hey there. We haven't officially met, but I'm one of the new Morningstar agents who relocated from New Oslo, and I've seen you around. Morningstar and the Displaced haven't always had the easiest relationship, but I know a lot of you are doing the best you can here. You seem like a good person to reach out to, so I thought I'd share some of the digging I've done.
Gaby told me what happened with those kidnappings recently, and mentioned there was a mercenary group involved. Sending this at all is dangerous, as you can imagine, so I'm spreading the information out among a few of you. You might have to piece things together, but it's the best method I've got right now.
It turns out there are more mercenary groups running around than the one you guys had a run in with. From what I've found, they get a lot of their backing from large corporationsβsome seriously heavy hitters. Unfortunately for us, that makes things even more dicey. There are powerful people invested in keeping these groups under the radar.
[ This is...unexpected, but perhaps it shouldn't be. he's been understandably wary of Morningstar thus far but the intel is something worth looking into on top of his other current interests. ]
hey.
can you give me an approximation of other displaced who are looking into this?
i've assumed from the get go that whoever was hiring the mercs was well connected and well funded. being relatively new here i'm not versed on the biggest power players.
kind of a stupid question, but: who stands to profit the most from maintaining the status quo by harnessing what we can do? what kind of millionaires and billionaires are we talking about?
I'd say the big corporations here in New Amsterdam are decent places to start. Pulsar, Vyonation, Giles Bell. This obviously goes beyond one city, though, and Riverstone is always a name to keep in the back of your mind.
As for who, I don't want to be too obvious here, but there's at least one other person who also works at Red Wings.
