Today brought some useful intelligence regarding the attempt on Liana.  As I was preparing to leave Gottin's Lamp, Directrix Aspenstar came by to see how I was.  We swapped information over tea, although it appears, suprisingly, I had more to work with than she.  With the Directrix was a young woman by name of Cilisa, a friend and retainer of Liana, who is apparently responsible for the export of produce from the Holding.  Cilisa had also fallen ill, around the same time as Liana, but had not been in direct contact with Her Ladyship, and therefore could not have been affected in that manner.  Rather, and very interestingly, she had dined in the Astrahus facility owned by Liana.  It is imperative that all the household staff, most important those in any way connected with the kitchens, be interrogated as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, one of the security detail assigned directly to Liana attempted to enter a restricted area of the SFRIM facilities.  No damage has been caused, of course, and I have apologised to the Directrix, but it does mean that there may be some areas where Liana cannot be guarded as closely as I would like.  She should be quite safe within SFRIM and LUMEN stations, but until I identify who is responsible for this attack, I can make no assumptions.  The current security detail have been most vigilant, but only temporary.  They should be replaced within the next day or two by Alexandr's team.  I have absolute faith that my brother will uncovered the key to his entire affair, through whatever means necessary.
