“Briefing”
Every one of us here has a privileged position, as we all know; we are fortunate421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0D39fu4I6D
to serve our nation and our ruler to unparalleled levels, we are chosen and421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ie3X4zRPn
with our actions, we display the very best our kingdom has to offer. We are421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijZuh917QG
its strength and its cunning. We undertake what very few can even consider, and we421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxgx17hBBb
always succeed.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeIqtgwq4N
That is what we do, who we are.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrixsd7V3Oc
We are both the first arrow and the rumoured dagger. We are fortunate for we are421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pSe4E3Oar
thus allowed to see and know more than most ever will, but we are still far from seeing421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH4XLojy8I
and knowing everything, of hearing all the secrets. We are not told of certain things421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMqvo2E2ec
unless urgency for our services demands it and so sometimes, most the times, all the421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsNdmxWHr9
privileged information is shared with us forcibly.Usually and unfortunately at the very421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHIuVEZh54
last hour and always at the most basic level required for our success, and anything421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOaYsrZkCv
else that I come to learn must be importuned, but such a thing has never hindered us.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFQJSnSTZk
Duty calls to us, our king bestows upon us the knowledge he deems necessary for us421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVucZDzRNK
to succeed, and we always do.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqGHstoCKW
Tonight will be no different. We will succeed regardless of how little we know.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnKTxVYYWC
Always remember that is who we are. Now that’s out of the way...421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7njvRm9QBM
I will now say something I do not usually need to tell you...421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrS6cOFerR0
I want everyone here to be extremely careful tonight and to never, under any421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFVUAvGuoZ
circumstance, underestimate the situation around you or even worse to overestimate421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxcxTFwqfx
yourselves. I have always been reminded that all things should be taken in moderation,421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdkSIkxJa2
even experience, for too much of it can also harm. These are always important words421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0Jsc1DkL1
I think, but it is not my intent to bother your ears with them...421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFiII1nEVO
I will just leave you with this: I want every single one of you, tonight, to remember421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfUvg60jnc
at all times why we succeed...421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI12HjKeDP0
I ask you all to promise me and yourselves this. Indulge me, please.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lrm9B1vvk
Tonight, will be a vastly different mission from any we had previously been charged421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoq7gIjILsH
with, in both time and geography.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1oD3yyqZn
We are headed to a place like no other and never before has so little time been given421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh3w0jYZQi
to us to accomplish a mission. Never had I heard such urgency in his majesty’s voice.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTl0ghDieQs
I was instructed to warn you that this is the most important mission the Hand has421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4mprJwatz
ever been charged with - these are words from King Hervies himself as he stared me421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj2xoqPfIn
in the eyes.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWPUgBTLtu
Be always mindful of this.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Bzblbvkuh
So, as I am sure you are aware by now, we are heading up there, towards the top of421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIUPnpkWgl
that mountain, into the facility established since the incident that killed this place.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ez5DLdsBK
I was told that we are not to expect any encountered resistance hence we bring only421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22YEy1kd03
our basic weaponry, I was also warned that this mission is not one of search and rescue421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZhyp1OcRC
no matter how dire the situation presented to us.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRIaDIEF0U
We are not to go out of our way to rescue someone if such a scenario, however421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbKTIMYrB4
unlikely, is presented to us. We are to move in fully prepared and expecting the worst421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PCe2Vy06I
possible situation as we always do, for they never call us in otherwise. All we know as of421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZGgCNwpcu
now is that all forms of communication between the palace and all those stationed up421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfAq97EFLZe
there were lost after six years of assiduity, cut off deliberately but not by our majesty’s421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7pdUJGOag
command.421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTEj1TlQ2S
Those people stationed there come up with something, a discovery of great421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqCG3WNEye
importance, unprecedented. Whether it was one of the many research teams that421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrjryZ4Txn
achieved it, or it was unburied by the digging team, this I do not know. I was not told421Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuyNsM7DGvm
about this.
