>>>>>[ Ah Cerise my thanks go out to you for your most exquisite company
over
the last few days. We must do this more often if you think you can stand the
non stop babble of all those mages. So are you going to tell me now if they
persuaded you to join ? It's only compulsory attendance 4 times a year. Most
of us are down there quite a bit anyhow. What did you think to Master My-Sung,
I told you he looked like a hamster didn't I :) Actually he taught me an
intresting technique, up to now I believed that only spell tossers like yourself
could use centering but he showed me that by completely clearing my mind of
all thoughts and focusing on a single point that I can excel in more in the
physical arts. I'm not too good at it yet and it doesn't always work but
Master My-Sung insisted that with time I would be able to perform feats such
as tightrope walking blindfold. Personally I can't see myself getting that
good but you never know.

Anyway after the buisiness that was talked about how about a weekend away with
me in Paris. I've never been but I've heard that their galleries are the best
in the world. Well worth seeing. If we've got time we could go over to
Florence, Master My-Sung emphasised to me that only by having as many
experiences as possible can the mind truely be harmony with the universe, and
what better way to start than to catch up on all those art lessons I missed
while at school, not to mention the fact that your company is a truely
harmonious experience that none other can match. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Sorry to get back to buisiness Cerise, but you know what was talked
about and how important it was.

Brandon Lowe, your involvement with wasp spirits has me slightly worried I
must admit. In fact not only me but other runners may feel nervous that a
magician capable of commanding insect spirits should have the trust of the
shadow running community when the only contact those runners have had with
insects are bad ones. Indeed the shadow running community is one of the few
bastions that have not been infected with persons so possesed by these spirits,
as previous research by others can testify.

However it is my duty to help ensure that magic is not to be used against
humanity, as has found to been the case several times. Indeed if it were not
for the shadowrunning community many cases where humans were being possesed
by such spirits would have continued unchecked. So you can understand my
involvment. Especially as I am sworn to help protect hummanity from such
evils with what powers I have.

So Mr Lowe, I request a meeting either in person or a public discussion through
this medium, private or public, I don't mind. I need to know about your
friends, Cerise seemed to think that you were a mage and from what I understand
only a shaman can conjure wasp spirits. Correct me if I am wrong, but had you
previously summoned those spirits or had someone summoned them for you and
given control to you ? If it was not you who summoned the spirits then I
need to talk to the shaman who did. I would also appreciate a visit to your
headquarters.

Now please don't take these as demands, they are not, they are requests. I have
been instructed to learn, not judge or to attack. Indeed it would be myself
who would be going into danger by going to your headquarters. I ask you to
consider my request carefully, up to now the little that is known about
insects is bad, it is up to you Mr Lowe to persuade me otherwise but to do so
you must be open with me on every facet of your organization.

I look forward to hearing from you Brandon Lowe. ]<<<<<
