Gaunt turned over this information in his head for a few moments. On one hand this seemed to be a big step in the right direction. It seemed very likely that this Phoenix engine could be a vital piece of the puzzle for what was going on. Even if it wasn't, obtaining it would get him in with the higher-ups at PTT. But on the other hand there was just something about the way O.T. Hedgehog had stressed "persuade" wasn't there? Yes, it seemed there was a high chance things could turn nasty in a hurry and that wasn't much to Gaunt's liking. Well, not when he would be personally involved anyway. All the same, from what he knew of his group he'd probably be the best suited for this kind of task anyway."There is a certain prototype of a rival company of ours whose technology we would be very interested in acquiring - the Phoenix engine - but it's owner, one Ms Triablos has rebuffed our more than reasonable offers. Perhaps as hired consultants you might have a bit better luck "persuading" her and getting that item into our possession. I will send you all information you need once you leave this place.
"Very well. I shall speak with this Ms. Triablos and convince her to part with that engine."
Gaunt then turned and left the room.
