SUMMARY: An intersystem call between UESC Admiral Sulera and UESC Captain Orion regarding Runner interference on Tau Ceti IV.
===================================================================

[CSUL]: Explain to me how a handful of Runners has managed to humiliate a team of military professionals.

[ORION]: It's more than a handful.

[CSUL]: Of untrained petty criminals.

[ORION]: The Runners are a problem, a huge problem. But they're not the source. They're working for Traxus OffWorld. Traxus is paying them to interfere. I've got concerns they might be hacking into our comms.

[CSUL]: Have you considered the possibility of a mole in your unit?

[ORION]: My people are solid. I chose each and every one of them. This isn't about my unit. This is about a regulated corporation deliberately compromising our mission objectives. If I could have permission to engage Traxus directly, put some fear into their corporate leadership so that I might—

[CSUL]: Hear me, Captain. You will have no antagonistic contact with Traxus leadership, unless you want to be summarily dismissed. Deal with the Runners, or I will find someone else who can.
