Hawthorne raises her eyebrows at you. "Your correspondent has graduated from letters to packages. I'm telling you, Guardian, you're putting Kadi out of business like this."

You tear open the latest envelope from Spider and a data chip falls out. The attached message reads,

"Dear Guardian,

"We've learned so much together, haven't we? I treat my partners well. Look at how high my last partner has risen in City authority. Always remember what Spider can do for you.

"Now, for Vesper Station… There's an ultimate control mechanism. Bray's personal key. And if you control the AI, you control the station. Vesper Central seems lonely up there. A bit out of control. I think you'll agree she could use a guiding hand.

"My agents have turned up one little key on their search for the big one. You take it and you grab what you want, and you remember it was your old chum who had you in his thoughts this whole time.

"XOXO, etc, the Spider."
