It notes that they believe this was a cooperative operation by the players.

Right. Sure, that's what that's for. It seems Commander Balish is still under the impression that the world may not be ending.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#646464;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[02:42] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#00aa00;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">LL: Balish does another shot.

He grumbles, and the footage focuses on the armory. For a long time, nothign happens, then the cameras start going out, one by one.

However, she's... not the most personable of persons... On the other hand, she's a bit powerless to do anything otherwise. Even the whole group of future players seems like they couldn't actually take Balish on.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#646464;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[02:44] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#666666;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">GT: She waits for a sign.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#646464;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[02:45] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#00aa00;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">LL: Inside one of the grates, you see a momentary flash, before the camera goes out. Two other cameras pick up a blurry object heading for the camera.

GREAT. Well, we're only kids after all...

A devious thought. Startling the commander my result in some injury to herself... However, his actions will not go unnoticed by the Condesce, and perhaps... perhaps his treachery can be brought to light and stopped before it starts.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.15;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#646464;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">[02:48] <span style="font-size:15px;font-family:Arial;color:#666666;font-weight:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">GT: may*

Another screen pops up, showing Merrow's room.

"I like it when they fight back. So tell me, now that the matter of your friends is settled up, what are you going to offer me for your life when this is over."

She tries again. The pain is getting to be a bit much for her and she starts tearing up.

His face purples a little bit, but you weren't careful, and you feel a deep cut in your thigh from the knife. Your phone lights up, and plays the little tinkling bell sound that means a text from Merrow. Balish grins. "I didn't realize you were so eager to get to it, Acenia."

Oh no. You didn't even think about that. Things are going a little too fast in your head as you stand here with a dagger in your thigh, making deals with the Troll Devil, waiting for death... And then your father's words decide to show up in your mind. This is not how you wanted things to go. You wanted Merrow! The jingling sound snaps you back and you foolishly turn your attention
