'''Transmission:'''  This is the Voice of Freedom.  Rejoice, people of [[Kentares IV]]!  Ian and Johanna, the son and daughter of Duke Eric, despite [[House Steiner|Steiner]] lies to the contrary, are alive, and have taken up arms against the forces which seek to oppress Kentares.  While Steiner attempts to rule through their puppet, William, Ian and Johanna lead a force of loyal followers to reclaim their stolen birthright.  Already, they have won critical victories in their struggle with Steiner occupation forces.  With your help, these victories will carry them to Oshroft to restore just rule.  Do your part.  Rise up against the oppression.  Answer Steiner’s theft of the throne once held by our beloved Eric.  Join his heirs to restore a lawful succession, and return benevolent leadership, not tyrannical domination, to the throne.  Listen, Kentares, and act to restore your freedom.

'''Rathburn:'''  Well, now the people and Steiner know about you both.  I’m not sure I agree with releasing this information, sir.  Not yet.  Until we’ve located the prison camp and have sufficient strength to strike it, this uprising is still quite vulnerable.

'''Rathburn:'''  Undoubtedly true, but now Steiner knows the resistance has focus, leadership to rally behind.  They could use that information to counter it, by killing you and your sister, for starters.

'''Casey:'''  Well, sir, that was a little closer than I’d like, but, you pulled it out.  And I’d like to be a fly on the wall when Roland finds out we’re stomping his tin brigades and stealing all his stuff.  For that matter, when he files his next report.  Not too up on Steiner protocol, but when his [[Archon]] learns how the Kentares occupation is going, there might just be disciplinary action.

'''Rathburn:'''  Another intercept, sir.  It appears Kulin is in the Hardra Peninsula.  He’s reporting in to Lord Roland.  Looks like we have the whole message.  I’ll forward it.
