The man gives another bow as he clears his throat once more, "The League sends a warning to you.  One of our agents has been hired to rescue your latest acquisition," he nodded to Nicole, "We give our agents leeway and allow them to take freelance contracts provided their business does not interfere with the League as a whole.  That was our agent's folly, she did not realize that the job she took would ruin the business arrangements we have with you if she was to be caught and reveal that to you.  So, we offer you this warning and a deal, we will let you do what you will of the agent when you capture her, and in exchange we continue business as usual."
