Erend sat stiffly in his chair. His eyes looking forward as the task force leader pointed at the projection on the wall. It wa a map marked with red circles and notes about enemy movement. It was the usual tactical briefing before a mission that he must do now as the member of this task force to catch the spies.

He accepted the call. "Yeah? Eccar? What's up?"
Eccar's voice echoed in his head, calm but direct.
"Don't worry, nothing too serious. We've arrived at Qomore Kingdom, met with King Roderic. Now we're staying in an inn in the city, trying to look for clues. But… to be honest, I don't even know where to start. I was wondering if you had any pointers from your end?"
