Nope. If Margrite were correct, I probably would have told CH that Margarita was close enough.

We know the first three letters; what remains is the issue.

Gap Quiz

I suspect I'm getting closer: Martha?

(I remembered it started with an "M", Savor Dam, but am trying to resist the temptation to look it up. If I don't get it w/i seven guesses, then I'm looking it up!)

New question:

UMCP Public Relations director Koina Hannish learns there's an Amnion defensive approaching Earth, and contacts UMCPHQ to find out if Warden still wants her to testify against him and Holt to the Governing Council for Earth and Space. After receiving an affirmative answer, Koina next wants to contact Sixten Vertigus, but Deputy Chief Forrest Ing objects.

Why does Forrest object to Koina contacting Sixten?

Okay, a hint: Forrest was concerned a certain individual could intercept Koina's communication with Sixten, because he couldn't guarantee Koina a secure channel. Who was that individual?

Hint: It's someone associated with Holt, and it's not Warden. That someone is who Forrest Ing is afraid will intercept any communication Koina sends to Sixten.

No, Godsen was dead by then, and Koina Hannish was the UMCPPR director.

I apologize to everyone for dropping the Gap quiz ball last October. Real life got ... complicated ... and my online activities dropped to pretty much zero.

I'll try not to let it happen again.

Not good enough HBJ :D (just kidding - I haven't exactly been prevalent here...).

I was hoping you'd have an answer to the question :D I should know, and will think about it more, but if anyone knows, please answer!

OK, thanks.

So who is this Cleatus Fane? We just spent over a month and a half identifying him as the answer to CH's question. Other than being someone Forrest Ing is concerned may intercept communications, how does he figure in the story? How is he associated with Holt? With Alt?
