Into the Mist

A sharp beep was heard as a holophone sprang to life. The figure in the hologram could barely be seen, but sat behind a large, rather spartan, desk.

"Update?"

"Simmons is doing well. I trust him, to a degree, but I don't think that he'll be able to get the job done right at this rate. He either needs some "encouragement" or support from our end. The press have been pressuring him to reveal several of our operations in Sirius, and he's been taking lots of PR blows left and right. If this keeps up, we may end up losing Viridian as a viable operator in Bretonia."

"That can be troublesome. But we are more concerned about the operations in Newcastle at the moment. Have you found a replacement for Eisenhart?"

"No, unfortunately, we've not."

"You realize that the entirety of this operation depends on your success in finding a suitable candidate?"

"Yes, sir, I do."

"Then find another candidate, or go with another plan. We have entrusted you with the crux of this operation. If you foul it, it will be your responsibility. Do you understand what this means, Montesse?"

"Sir, this isn't a secure channel!

"Then what is the codename for? Do realize that we allow you your little hiding schemes...to an extent. In other words, we tolerate it. It does not mean that we like it."

"I understand."

"We're glad that you do. Now, I need to see results on the Operation, Montesse. Results make us pleased."

"Well, there is one thing that we can do..."

"What's that?"

In the dark of night, the conversation continued.
