“Briefing”
Every one of us here has a privileged position, as we all know; we are fortunate321Please respect copyright.PENANAaME9lQAYxI
to serve our nation and our ruler to unparalleled levels, we are chosen and321Please respect copyright.PENANARM3oVo3amv
with our actions, we display the very best our kingdom has to offer. We are321Please respect copyright.PENANAkFQjc3MWqz
its strength and its cunning. We undertake what very few can even consider, and we321Please respect copyright.PENANAfJ71VBoC3j
always succeed.321Please respect copyright.PENANAHVHKRa5u9q
That is what we do, who we are.321Please respect copyright.PENANAyfwpZnwE27
We are both the first arrow and the rumoured dagger. We are fortunate for we are321Please respect copyright.PENANA0VK8wOeIsa
thus allowed to see and know more than most ever will, but we are still far from seeing321Please respect copyright.PENANAW3XeyyZK5Z
and knowing everything, of hearing all the secrets. We are not told of certain things321Please respect copyright.PENANAs6Vmg5FgVy
unless urgency for our services demands it and so sometimes, most the times, all the321Please respect copyright.PENANAxfQw83eVLo
privileged information is shared with us forcibly.Usually and unfortunately at the very321Please respect copyright.PENANAMGEL5AYsns
last hour and always at the most basic level required for our success, and anything321Please respect copyright.PENANAEIjX6cxT5j
else that I come to learn must be importuned, but such a thing has never hindered us.321Please respect copyright.PENANA4AQPWQSWnt
Duty calls to us, our king bestows upon us the knowledge he deems necessary for us321Please respect copyright.PENANA4x9CZOT7KA
to succeed, and we always do.321Please respect copyright.PENANA0Qwj0u4FLH
Tonight will be no different. We will succeed regardless of how little we know.321Please respect copyright.PENANAQM1QxVkTDQ
Always remember that is who we are. Now that’s out of the way...321Please respect copyright.PENANAhFxEWMUr8D
I will now say something I do not usually need to tell you...321Please respect copyright.PENANAd9CxX4KPyE
I want everyone here to be extremely careful tonight and to never, under any321Please respect copyright.PENANA5Vq71h4zFl
circumstance, underestimate the situation around you or even worse to overestimate321Please respect copyright.PENANAgZz157IQDN
yourselves. I have always been reminded that all things should be taken in moderation,321Please respect copyright.PENANAAgDFOYXKYS
even experience, for too much of it can also harm. These are always important words321Please respect copyright.PENANAZeJleXeHd3
I think, but it is not my intent to bother your ears with them...321Please respect copyright.PENANAq5pM7uTCil
I will just leave you with this: I want every single one of you, tonight, to remember321Please respect copyright.PENANAD5DX1d4qcu
at all times why we succeed...321Please respect copyright.PENANAocu1Lo3tlg
I ask you all to promise me and yourselves this. Indulge me, please.321Please respect copyright.PENANA6TWjvyPGca
Tonight, will be a vastly different mission from any we had previously been charged321Please respect copyright.PENANAjWrEhQO6Ux
with, in both time and geography.321Please respect copyright.PENANAareoj8KnYK
We are headed to a place like no other and never before has so little time been given321Please respect copyright.PENANAhhHdsrPuJ4
to us to accomplish a mission. Never had I heard such urgency in his majesty’s voice.321Please respect copyright.PENANAnymca7DpV7
I was instructed to warn you that this is the most important mission the Hand has321Please respect copyright.PENANAKxyblHaOpE
ever been charged with - these are words from King Hervies himself as he stared me321Please respect copyright.PENANAnGx2wqIhgg
in the eyes.321Please respect copyright.PENANAjEKNqTF5v0
Be always mindful of this.321Please respect copyright.PENANAyMYO3pniRd
So, as I am sure you are aware by now, we are heading up there, towards the top of321Please respect copyright.PENANAUx2T9wBc4A
that mountain, into the facility established since the incident that killed this place.321Please respect copyright.PENANA8MzCbmxbxm
I was told that we are not to expect any encountered resistance hence we bring only321Please respect copyright.PENANAp6plo0FcNS
our basic weaponry, I was also warned that this mission is not one of search and rescue321Please respect copyright.PENANApW90IDU6RX
no matter how dire the situation presented to us.321Please respect copyright.PENANAnthbwJ9ar5
We are not to go out of our way to rescue someone if such a scenario, however321Please respect copyright.PENANA51pnYXxm87
unlikely, is presented to us. We are to move in fully prepared and expecting the worst321Please respect copyright.PENANAa4VIL8XXAt
possible situation as we always do, for they never call us in otherwise. All we know as of321Please respect copyright.PENANArrKLp94rSH
now is that all forms of communication between the palace and all those stationed up321Please respect copyright.PENANA68ezlH3tkH
there were lost after six years of assiduity, cut off deliberately but not by our majesty’s321Please respect copyright.PENANAv1DtzcxlnY
command.321Please respect copyright.PENANAlT4VOBFKpp
Those people stationed there come up with something, a discovery of great321Please respect copyright.PENANAMiIudU9JEt
importance, unprecedented. Whether it was one of the many research teams that321Please respect copyright.PENANAkh5l6Wt66y
achieved it, or it was unburied by the digging team, this I do not know. I was not told321Please respect copyright.PENANA8rXefWtOiM
about this.
