I have barely any experience abroad." }, { "role": "user", "content": "It's a great opportunity to remedy that. Besides, you won't be working alone. Your associates will be more than able to compensate." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "And who are they, exactly?" }, { "role": "user", "content": "You know one of them, already. It's Atlas." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "You've got to be kidding me." }, { "role": "user", "content": "He's been to Trachi, before. And he knows her better than anyone else. Which is why I need someone to keep an eye on him, while he's there." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "But why me?" }, { "role": "user", "content": "Because the two of you have a history." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "I don't see how that's relevant." }, { "role": "user", "content": "There's something you need to understand about Atlas... He can't help but feel responsible for all the misery in the world. Including what happened to you. My point is... Atlas won't be able to see you straight. I know I'm asking for a lot.

I don't understand." }, { "role": "user", "content": "Curious, isn't it? Here is Fero, with one of our best men at his disposal... An operative who's not only been born and raised in Trachi... But also desperately wants to bring it back. And yet, he has his mind set on someone else." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "Who?" }, { "role": "user", "content": "One of his protégés from the external branch.

We know far too litle of him." }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "What do you know about him?" }, { "role": "user", "content": "Not much. He's a founding member of the Republican Guard.

No need to get all uppity! I'm not here to hurt you. All I need is for you to tell me a little something. And in return... I'll let you know what happened to your friend. Yes. The blonde one.

Two years ago. You fucked that one up, didn't you? Seduced by a double agent... Pathetic. And to top it off... You didn't even have the spine to stand up for it.

Did you suck your host dry already?" }, { "role": "user", "content": "Bright one, aren't we? So proud of your homework! But I've got some bad news for you, little one. You already lost.

So, what's the next step?" }, { "role": "assistant", "content": "First order of business is to establish a safe supply route back to Ionia. Since the guardsmen at the checkpoint are unlikely to cooperate, we need to rely on alternative methods. In other words, we're going to need ships. And lots of them.

Once we've established control over the checkpoint, everyone will get their property back. I think you know this already... But we can't use any forces oficially affiliated with Ionia.

And I think you of all people are aware how long this city can survive without food supplies." }, { "role": "user", "content": "Alright. I guess there's no helping it.
