Nice touch there with the contact's name. Would you mind if we put him in residence on Ravenmoon station?

(And if there's a Mathers in Fenspace, there should be an Ambler as well or we'll never get a second Golden Dawn... Maybe I should reconsider that restriction I placed on which Infinities Honami shows up in...?)

Like the quoted part: It may be legal, but doing that is quite nasty from a fen perspective -once (because those things always get out, the Plot requires it) it is commnly known, Mr O'Neill will get a truly nasty reputation than not even his (alleged) dirty economic deals did not grant him.
If the girls are enslaved, there's a plotbunny for someone - who finds out first, and what do they do?

One way to run with this: By the time this is discovered, O'Neill is too well-integrated into the Fen economy to attack directly, unless somebody wants to cause an economic recession. Thus, a stealth liberation operation is mounted, with "assets" drawn from multiple factions and the Generalist population so that no one group has to shoulder the blame if things go wrong... with Arthur in the background, helping with logistics and intelligence.

Ace Dreamer Wrote:... If they wanted a surname they could always use "Arthursdottir", but that isn't likely in their files.
Have you been reading my notes about the chapter of Legend of Galactic Girls that I'm currently writing?
