The Price of Love

Operative EmpChihuahua Reporting

Operative Nyx spent too much time in the dream world today attempting to help a Sith assassin that continually attempts to bother her, and in doing so, left herself exposed to be psychically scanned.  The Rebellion found out about her memories of the Admiral, Bryce, the bounty hunter, and the Assassin and found her to be compromised at the highest level.  Operative Nyx is a very high ranking spy, with intelligence that only the highest levels of the Rebellion are privy to, and they wanted to relocate her but I offered to have her memories erased.  It makes no sense because those she interacted with know who she is, but in doing this, she will be able to still be around her friends (albeit she won't recognize them at all).  When an operative is compromised to where their heart is completely open (as is the case with the Admiral), they are willing to say anything to their beloved.  Operative Nyx will now see all Empire as enemies and continue in her mission.  Luckily, only the Admiral, Bryce, the bounty hunter, and the Assassin are aware of her true identity.  This will allow her to resume her espionage duties for the time being. 

The procedure was performed by Nij'uan, a highly skilled Kiffar who was able to send a doppleganger to the small Rebel moon outpost nearby.  He uploaded the report that he did not find anything of concern in her memory banks, thus the Rebellion no longer believes she has been compromised.  But he still completed the memory "lock-down" procedure at my request so that if she is scanned again, nothing can be found on her.  But I am afraid the one who scanned her memory knows the truth, and will fight aggressively to bring her back home.  Luckily, Nij'uan is such a respected Rebel ally that his word overrode all previous reports on her.

She rests on the bed in front of me.  I am afraid that if any one of her previous memories are unintentionally or intentionally sparked, she will experience severe headaches and require medical attention.  This is the price that compromised operatives pay for their desire to love the enemy.  Israfil, Nyx previous partner, also had the same fate when she developed a relationship with one of her Empire contacts.  Suffice it to say, Israfil underwent the procedure and the relationship ended.  Israfil was able to complete several more missions prior to being killed by the Emporer.  As for her Empire contact, not much is known about what happened to him. 

As a side note, the procedure isn't well-known because it involves possibly breaking down the psychological barriers of the operative.  Only strong-minded operatives are offered the choice, but the price they pay is quite extreme.  I sent text messages to the Admiral, but I do not know if he is even aware of the issue.  To my knowledge, he is still asleep.
