“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.
