My Friend Nikki,
The situation has changed since we spoke on the phone. I have been asked by the powers of the Camrilla to allow things in Sophia to progress without my interference. I have chosen to aqueous to this request. It does fit with some of my personal goals.
I feel indebted to you for your loyal service, no matter what the reason. I wish you inform you of several things I have found out about events in Sophia so you can react to them in the most informed matter possible.
First that the gathering in Dresden was a setup to destroy one or more Princes and turn their city's over to Bolshevik sympathizers. This most likely involves Boris Melor directly. Connected to this in Sophia, Svetlana Valentine is has plans to become Prince in the near future. How this relates to Gustavus's rise, I do not know. I guess that he will be removed after some of the direct threats are dealt with.
I have no wish to direct your actions with either Gustavus or Svetlana, only to make sure you make decisions with all the information possible.
Lastly the Archon Ilyana Ravidovich has been compromised. How do not know to what extent but be careful with any interactions with her.
Your Friend,
Brian O'Reilly
