“Briefing”
Every one of us here has a privileged position, as we all know; we are fortunate350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFTp83g9zC
to serve our nation and our ruler to unparalleled levels, we are chosen and350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5uXECfoW1
with our actions, we display the very best our kingdom has to offer. We are350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWZwmtqFHkr
its strength and its cunning. We undertake what very few can even consider, and we350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPa1ICUXfdQ
always succeed.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZAmOfz3BJ
That is what we do, who we are.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLVBGz30qG
We are both the first arrow and the rumoured dagger. We are fortunate for we are350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLPn1hkR3N
thus allowed to see and know more than most ever will, but we are still far from seeing350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXn6Zo6TjF
and knowing everything, of hearing all the secrets. We are not told of certain things350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9dVvwEQCG
unless urgency for our services demands it and so sometimes, most the times, all the350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGICVPBXJg
privileged information is shared with us forcibly.Usually and unfortunately at the very350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup5SCw3obE
last hour and always at the most basic level required for our success, and anything350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnaSkSIvkfH
else that I come to learn must be importuned, but such a thing has never hindered us.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTBm0cgz0C
Duty calls to us, our king bestows upon us the knowledge he deems necessary for us350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzntqxqicE
to succeed, and we always do.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLsWjsJDkl
Tonight will be no different. We will succeed regardless of how little we know.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSqt6PXrYZ
Always remember that is who we are. Now that’s out of the way...350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ThwSlVwzE
I will now say something I do not usually need to tell you...350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7X82jdmNY
I want everyone here to be extremely careful tonight and to never, under any350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuWgeC5wLe
circumstance, underestimate the situation around you or even worse to overestimate350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPwSXcrBlK
yourselves. I have always been reminded that all things should be taken in moderation,350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYrjG8CENb
even experience, for too much of it can also harm. These are always important words350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0172SmJxXZ
I think, but it is not my intent to bother your ears with them...350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWD6xJHXjH
I will just leave you with this: I want every single one of you, tonight, to remember350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBgJhFGaOF
at all times why we succeed...350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCLy9gFuOx
I ask you all to promise me and yourselves this. Indulge me, please.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6Opt5hEmQ
Tonight, will be a vastly different mission from any we had previously been charged350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPnp4V3x2b
with, in both time and geography.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVpZuquVXi
We are headed to a place like no other and never before has so little time been given350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPWZ7ui9MQ
to us to accomplish a mission. Never had I heard such urgency in his majesty’s voice.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BUSN73KWx
I was instructed to warn you that this is the most important mission the Hand has350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5FIPaMpnx
ever been charged with - these are words from King Hervies himself as he stared me350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mqdmrRbuT
in the eyes.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnCZBF6MmF
Be always mindful of this.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtCIJqbIRy
So, as I am sure you are aware by now, we are heading up there, towards the top of350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHQvc7DXWD
that mountain, into the facility established since the incident that killed this place.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdI4L7E1jf
I was told that we are not to expect any encountered resistance hence we bring only350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxUQkRH7Vs
our basic weaponry, I was also warned that this mission is not one of search and rescue350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhwkb85c38j
no matter how dire the situation presented to us.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaHeXEaHmM
We are not to go out of our way to rescue someone if such a scenario, however350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7V9lWiG5K
unlikely, is presented to us. We are to move in fully prepared and expecting the worst350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCjEMx9WTC
possible situation as we always do, for they never call us in otherwise. All we know as of350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpMDULg1Db
now is that all forms of communication between the palace and all those stationed up350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCkXOpQQno
there were lost after six years of assiduity, cut off deliberately but not by our majesty’s350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOz57psTRW
command.350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoKGXVz9JL
Those people stationed there come up with something, a discovery of great350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY2xIEoiyv
importance, unprecedented. Whether it was one of the many research teams that350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpUNRs7YIe
achieved it, or it was unburied by the digging team, this I do not know. I was not told350Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArw9B9Gb5k
about this.
