I'm contacting all of you specifically because I have reason to believe you have the initiative and resources to deal with it, and the sense to keep it from getting out to the general public. Those of you I don't know personally, James Barnes listed your names as people we could trust; do us a favor and don't prove him wrong.
Several months ago, I found a lab under the city, at more or less the same time a group of foreigners found the alleged cloning facilities. There were organs in jars, medical equipment and anatomical charts - ad they had people there, foreigners I recognized from early in our time here.
A couple of them were alive and responsive, but they weren't themselves anymore. There wasn't a person inside them. And another was... [ She presses her lips together, for just a moment, before going on. ] Dissected. Taken apart, like they were studying him. I ran into several kedan there who told me this was normal procedure for them. Someone brings them the bodies, and has been doing so since before any of us arrived, but they don't know who, or how they're selected...
[ She takes a deep breath. ]
This may not be new information to all of you. What is new is that Captain Rogers was investigating it, and now he's gone. We can't afford not to find out what's happening and why. I know that he spoke to Commander Evandau about it, but I don't think we can count on him to have the same... priorities we do, or that he's not involved. I'd like your help taking up where Steve left off.
...I will add that there's a chance this is connected to Malicant. It's certainly... not dissimilar to what my team ran into tracking down one of Evandau's leads. It's also possible that those who know too much about it are the ones targeted to be removed - I know it sounds like a conspiracy theory, but the Emperor seems to believe it too, and I can't say Steve's disappearance isn't connected. If you don't want a part in this, tell me now.

I understand Captain Rogers spoke to you about the lab under the city, some time ago. I'd like to know what progress you've made in finding who was behind it.

[Another file upon his desk merits his attention as he says this.]
Eshai's system is not without flaw. Sometimes, it brings ineligible candidates and sometimes? It sends the better soldiers home. Over that, we have no control.

[ It's said calmly, without accusation, and her voice softens a little as she goes on. She might not entirely buy everything Evandau says, but she's curious to hear what he does have to say. ]
Maybe I've been operating under incorrect information, but I thought we were all clones. That would present some problems sending us home.

[His tone is grim. No, this is not their first batch of Foreigners, but he'd be happy if the last tries had been successful. Instead, they bought themselves time and got the kedan -- not the best track record.]
And souls need bodies. You think you'd be much use without one?
[That's how he understands the system, at least; Evandau's more soldier than sorcerer, so he doesn't pry into what Eshai does.]
