Something has happened to the head of IA’s son.

I remember that little brat isn’t he in finance.

He was. Now he’s mostly in counselling.

Why is this our concern?

His apartment has gone grey.

What is our exposure?

Uptown area we have isolated the surrounding 3 floors. Too much money involved not to act quickly.

Tell me the whole story.

It appears he used his wealth and access to get a hold of something very rare. Initially all it did was drive him mad. It was only this morning that an entity was spotted in his apartment by a maid. Aethermen were unfortunately first on scene though they have apparently contained the entity as well as the artefact preventing any further spread.

Shame for it to fall into their hands. Who was the seller.

That’s why I came to you its linked to one of your pet projects. Intel is showing that it’s the same seller as LDT97.
Now identified as Sebastian Roman a former talent agent who IA insist they incinerated.

Fine have Meredith dispatch them. Test their loyalty.

If we had been aware what type of weapon the DN cell was purchasing, Frosty would never have been dispatched. Despite this a 2 person squad without the required training or equipment successfully put down a WE entity.

The after effect has been noticeable both operatives. Klein has attempted to be stoic, she is however showing signs of PTSD and her confidence in her own ability is waning.
Counselling and advanced training have begun to counteract this with hopefully no long lasting affects.

Foster was damaged before we recruited her. Every profile and assessment on her clearly states she is mentally unbalanced but her usefulness as a combat operative overrides immediate concern. She is now experiencing nightmares of WE and has had reason to question her effectiveness. Surprisingly she did not object to counselling and has been co-operative with the psychology team. She has also taken on an increased work load happily accepting every combat mission and elimination order she can. Her doctors continue to determine her field ready.

Both of them are undeniably loyal to the company something which has only been strengthened by the recent events.

Covert work is not for this team. They are killers. They may be damaged by their past but it has only improved their effectiveness.

My recommendation is we train them as hunters and use them to target the worst elements of misha, the known pockets of shian and give them the pleasure of killing the traitor who sold shian the pages that almost go them killed by a WE entity.

Unless anyone from Department S has any objection.

---

No objection – Frosty should think of this as an IA op

The operation in question was done by Internal Affairs.
2 Operatives infiltrated a Dark Night cell and slowly worked their way up the chain.
They were 3 months into the assignment when the leader of the cell purchased the pages.
The operatives backed a DN lieutenant in a power struggle when they arrived the ritual had already begun.
All of the members of the DN cell were eliminated quickly leaving only the leader and the operatives.
Upon dispatching the leader the ritual was completed and the entity emerged.
At this point it’s important to note that the operatives were wearing 2nd rate DN equipment to face the entity.
They engaged it and managed to defeat it with one of the operatives picking up its weapon to finish it off.
The operatives left the scene before our fire team arrived.
I recommend that both operatives continue to be monitored especially the operative who held the weapon.
Full post operation medical and psychological assessment of the operatives is attached to my report.
-—-
Why were IA investigating a DN cell? How did we not know about the link with Shi’An?
-—-
IA had a previous mole in the organisation who was aware they were trying to purchase a weapon of impressive destructive capabilities. All evidence suggested the purchase was being made from a SLA employee. The original moles death was all the proof IA needed and sent in a less well known team to confirm the deal.
From the files recovered by ourselves and IA we can confirm that the seller was a SLA employee.
As for how we didn’t know. We never suspected Shi’An had spread within SLA itself.
-—
Locate this traitor immediately have them delivered to the vault. I will deal with them personally.

Discussion between R & V Department S

So far Foster and Klein have proven to be excellent cleaners.

Fosters dispatch of Uxío Rocha and Kleins of Maria Soler were both exceptional in their own way.

They could continue to take out targets effectively for sometime but I agree with your assessment that they have potential for greater things.

I understand an asset in LDT 97 was recently lost.

I propose we use this as an opportunity to test Squad Frosty’s ability at infiltration.

We have 2 new killers on payroll.

May our enemies fall before them.

Hi Gabriel, good news I hope.

Stop, calm down, breathe, your talking too fast. What’s happened?

Hand the phone to whoever is in charge. I don’t care do it Gabriel.

Hi you have successfully downed two agents on a sanctioned operation.

Yes I am well aware of your mandate and the finer details of your contract.

I know you went there for the Duchess but you will be stabilising the 2 operatives and taking them with you as per the terms of their LAD contracts.

If that’s how you feel I am enforcing section 86J of your contract.
Oh good you know about that.

Thank you for your co-operation

Put Gabriel back on.

Gabriel are they stabilizing Foster and Klein?

Good, now I need you to work fast. As soon as they are gone you have to get into the Duchess’s system and do something for me.

At this point recording is scrambled. Other half of conversation unobtainable.

2E1: Please be seated.

N/A: I know I shouldn’t ask but where are we?

2C7: You are correct, you should not.

2E1: Now please tell us about your recent trip to lower Down Town.

N/A: My team were sent to a grey zone to investigate and advanced dream entity known as Aunt Cilla. I was kept in the dark deliberately due to my past association with the entity.

2C7: You lived with the creature for 3 months.

N/A: I was used by her.

2E1: What happened once you entered the home?

N/A: I saw through her traps but my team couldn’t. So I removed her illusion at the cost of my own.

2C7: How?

N/A: I can’t describe it. I can alter things its not easy and in some places its impossible. In the grey it …

2E1: came naturally

N/A: yes. but I wasn’t prepared for the effect it would have on me. I panicked and curled into a ball when I saw her.I could hear my friends fighting but couldn’t help.

2C7: Then Agent Foster got creative.

N/A: and I got angry. As a result Cilla died and I burned myself out by going over capacity.

2E1: Would I be right in suggesting you got a sense of closure from the destruction of the creature?

N/A: Yes, Cilla killed my family and damaged me in ways I didn’t understand till now.

2C7: So you understand what you are?

N/A: Yes

2C7: Good. Welcome to Naga 7 Agent Brown.

For years there has been an area of Down town that was considered a no-go area for our city’s Shiver patrols.

Today in a coordinated strike with M.R. Division, Shivers and Select Operative teams Klick’s End has been reclaimed.

No more will the props, slaver and subversives have this safe haven.

People in the neighbouring districts can sleep in safety once again.

A black spot on our great world on progressed has been expunged.

We are now reclaiming the Moral Right.

2C7: Asset designated Daedalus was successfully extracted.

3F8: Before leaving he had infected Tek Trex entire network with tracking software.
He also brought information detailing all domestic agents.

2E1: And the anomaly?

3F8: Anomaly?

2C7: Get out now.

3F8 leaves room

2C7: Do I have to?

2E1: Not necessary. Now tell me about the Anomaly.

2C7: It’s still assisting them, extraction of asset may have failed without them.

2D5: back to the task at hand how successful is the sweep.

2C7: Every target bar one has been detained or eliminated.

2D5: So she’s still alive.

2C7: Tek Trex is finished she has no support network she wont be able to…

2D5: Of course she will. now she’ll just have a more dangerous sponsor.

2E1: The important thing is Tek Trex is gone, they were a distraction we don’t have time for any more. We’ll get another chance at her later.

2F9: First Puritan now Tek Trex. Distractions we were forced to respond to. The anomaly a distraction you’ve been forced to monitor. Then there is the Tartarus discovery.

Our enemies are making us look in the wrong direction.

He wants a solution. Today.

“Chef Moses what do you have for us tonight?”
“Well Tina …”

Except one.

A full combat analysis can be seen on the disc provided.
Or for choice edits just turn on your TV, any action channel will do.
That isn’t what you this report is for.
You want my analysis of Squad Frosty. How they handle subversives and there loyalty towards SLA.
Nine months ago I took on the team partially because they made the border list but mostly because the team showed potential. Under the leadership of Sonya Foster the team showed they had drive and marketability but were too self destructive to ever truly advance.
Once Mina Klein took over the team gained the organization it had greatly lacked and they began to get noticed, this is the point where I took management if the squad.

All the events while under Foster have been well documented as they are the reason the Squad was placed on the border list.

For all the BPN’s under Klein and my management please see the mission reports

The recent BPN was their highest profile and most dangerous mission to date.

Slayer himself issued a Platinum BPN to kill the traitor Alana Gallien and eliminate the soft company she had enhanced Puritan Solutions Inc. I was rather surprised when I was instructed to be part of this mission.

After accessing the intelligence on the Puritan Body Armour production facility. I realised why I would be needed. Mr Slayer in his wisdom knew I would have the resources to help make the op a success where as the operatives had the most direct experience with the deluge project suits.

Considering the projected amount of enemy combatants I decided additional manpower was necessary. I chose to eliminate another potential threat to SLA at the same time. Using a squad you had highlighted to me.
The Ever Circling Skeletal Family were contracted by myself to serve as a distraction by attacking the main most guarded entrance while frosty went in the back door.
The Ever Circling Skeletal Family were chosen because I had recently uncovered proof that there leader Dyno had been receiving funds from DN for the past 3 years. The rest of the squad were not directly implicated but I feel we can all agree there sacrifice was worthwhile.

After our initial distraction we split the group in 2. I with my new weaponry and armour would provide an attractive target giving the squad time to locate their main objective.
Thanks to some well placed grenades by Taanesh and Klein the enemy combatant were successfully split focusing on the 2 distraction as opposed to the highly trained team Frosty.

While split up I watched my distraction team get destroyed and then detonated the explosives I made them bring on the mission. I then proceeded to use over a ten thousand credits in ammunition and grenades trying to kill as many of the Puritan members as possible.

Team Frosty at this time encountered Gallien and the final result of the Deluge project the Chimera. They were eventually successful in combat and we all exited awaiting extraction.

Our extraction vehicle was then destroyed by DN. It has since come to my attention that an hour before the mission began Gallien had contacted DN to arrange an alliance and exchange of technology as long as they could get her and her research team off world.

Aware that we were now drastically outnumbered and had spent most of our resources, things looked bleak. My own armour was barely functional and the power supply was about to go offline. Whilst my ammo and grenade had been completely spent. So I activated the timer on my explosive payload.
Then I done something which I know you are not happy with.
I wilfully injected myself with a compound which would stop my heart. Thereby activating my LAD account and summoning immediate extraction and more fire-power.
The squad managed to hold on till the Kill Copter arrived at which point I was rather easily revived.
If I hadn’t activated my LAD and used all the resources at my disposal there is a good chance DN would currently be in possession of the Deluge project.

As for my assessment on the squad, they are undeniably good at there job.

Sonya Foster is undeniably a functioning Psychopath who is doing everything she ever wanted to do thanks to SLA. She has an endless supply of enemies to kill and all the drugs she’ll ever need. She views subversive opponents with a particular disdain barely recognising them as worthwhile adversaries, given the opportunity she will kill subversives in the name of SLA till the end of her days.

Mina Klein in leadership she has come into her own, her tactical awareness and knowledge of her opponents is impressive. She is also genuinely loyal in a way that few human operatives are. I would recommend her as a potential cloak operative if I didn’t know she was already on your list.

Taanesh has just begun to live the life he was born to lead, he is fighting in the name of Slayer. As long as he is allowed to continue we never have anything to worry about.

Russel Brown was a concern of mine for awhile, Al Ravi’s betrayal hit him harder than anyone else on the team. He was devastated by being forced to kill him. Thankfully he has bounced back thanks to counselling sessions he has received at the dark lament chapel. Now he sees Ravi for what he was and is rededicated to the team.

Have a SLA day

Dr Hansel: I’m sorry, I couldnt stop them they found the location we were moving the suits to.
Content Not Found: alana-gallien You incompetent idiot. Fuck this is bad. We need to stop him now. Maybe I can list a quick bpn and force some ops to shut him down, claim it was some DK stunt then have them killed on another op.
DH: I’m not sure that will work.
AG: Why? Oh no, it wasn’t just the Prime was it.
DH: The fool and his men emptied the Ferine facility.
AG: That’s over 500 suits.
DH: 628 Including the Prime.
AG: He has all of them? What’s his target?
DH: He was muttering about killing a race traitor.
AG: That’s why we enhanced the serials, those suits were for killing ebb users. Your telling me he has a fucking army and he’s not going after Dark Lament.
DH: I have no idea what that man is thinking.
AG: No. Oh fucking no.
DH: Benefactor?
AG: Turn on the TV.
DH: What channel?
AG: Low Wave sex channel of course. THE NEWS YOU MORON!
DH: OK … oh … The retarded mentally defective bastards. FEN! He attacked somewhere with more guns than a war world.
AG: OK there’s no salvaging this my career is over, Karma wont accept any form of reasoning after this. Get the Animus facility into overdrive and make sure the Chimera is ready. Slayer is coming.

Dearest Benefactor I have equipped many of our more militant members with combat suits and given them the target you suggested.

The Frother population of DT44 is about to be reduced drastically.
The individual targets you listed have been supplied to those in Mantidae suits.

As for the weaknesses of the suits I agree on the measures to address these. The Prime should help us better control the burn out and stabilization issues we are having.

The Krake suits flaws I believe I can correct and make much more combat efficient by introducing a few more strains. I think Thaumoctopus mimicus & Vampyroteuthis infernalis would be perfect additions.

We may however have a problem, one of our best recruiters is aware of the Prime and thinks it should be used. I am attempting to hide its location from him but sadly madmen like him have a lot more sway within Puritan than intellectuals like myself.

++++++

Reply from Benefactor.

Hansel firstly well done on the Frothers. All of the targets were eliminated and the massacre should help with recruitment.

More importantly. You better not let that little shit anywhere near the Prime. If that thing is seen in combat its all over.

Dr Hansel I am sorry to report that 3 SLA operatives damaged our uptown facility before research could be fully tested.

Fortunately our researchers took care of all the potential witnesses as well as some combat testing of the MKIV Kraken and the MKII Nahuatl armour ranges. The MKI Prime wasn’t activated during this struggle mostly due to a mole. Fortunately my clean up team hid it from any operatives.

I am in the process of dissecting the suits and studying the combat footage, ours and the operatives.

My early reports advice that trained combatants be given the suits in future and not a geneticist.

Unfortunately it would seem you were right about the burnout rate and that the bonding at this time may be irreversible.

I advise continuing the research to make them as instantly combat ready as possible. We’ll work out longevity later.

After all we have plenty of devoted idiots ready to take the leap for us.

Benefactor.

Yes the rumors are true, Killraven has returned.
At first everyone thought it was just another copycat, but reports are coming in the man who just won the gauntlet is Elias Killraven the original Killravens son.
Most viewers at home will know him better as the reality star Dr Killraven Feelgood. But apparently he has reclaimed his birthright and done it in a big way.
No-one has done a full gauntlet since his fathers last fights in the coliseum. Dear SLA was it glorously brutal to watch the slaughter.

Watch the replay of tonight at 8 mcst. It’s an instant classic.

Now I’m joined by a rather smug looking Stephan Whorechild leader of the Cult of the Raven.

Stephan this must be a great day for you and your followers today ….

Kill order for operative REDACTED was more involved than anticipated.

The traitor had fled off world and was hiding on New Paris where he planned to sell stolen company equipment through the New Parisian transport hub.

REDACTED’s former teammates dispatched him after being given his location by a senior SLA official (whose role in this is part of an in house investigation by the chapel).

The former teammates are no longer under investigation for corruption.

He’s gone, he’s finally gone.

I can sleep at night without worrying about the bastard trying to sneak into my bed.
The Department is mine. The office is mine. His bitch secretary is MINE, oh she’ll try and request a transfer but that wont be happening any time soon.

Unfortunately it didn’t happen how I planned it, guess I wont need to use that Vevaphon or the gene-modified pig I bought. Or the UV. What the hell am I going to do with a combat pig and that much UV, now that he’s gone. I’m sure I’ll find someone.

Ah yes the Op, The two lovely young Operatives and their Ebon gimp were able to track down the traitor Woe to his production facility, there they eliminated Woe and his feral accomplices with the brutal efficiency I have come to expect from them.

They have been rewarded well for there involvement.

Only one downside though the gimp went rogue and stole something of Woe’s; If its the death-suit creation matrix that woe forged then all of this has just slowed our rivals down. They may be able to recreate death-suits in the near future.

So my first act as head of the Department is to contact Cloak to get a Grey launched.
Who knows maybe I’ll get that piggy in action sooner than I thought.

Operative REDACTED was ordered to kill operative REDACTED due to being suspected of foul play with the death of his squad.
He was successful.

Operative REDACTED’s body will be sent to Karma for analysis to see if the other members of his strain need to be watched or if he was a flaw.

I met with Taanesh and made my proposal, he accepted as I believed he would. He also wanted a BPN right away like I knew he would.
It’s his hunger for the job that interests me most. His centuries of experience and contacts are pretty much invaluable but the hunger.
It’s like an attack dog who’s been held just out of reach finally being able to slip the lead.

The BPN I gave him was a clever one, a blue bpn suggesting a combat situation in an area that is easily overlooked.
Meaning no be hungry for it and the admin team at slayers crib will ignore giving it out for more pressing matters. Almost always when left long enough these become red, purely due to body count.

It became RED just as Taanesh arrived.

Several locals had taken the drug zombie, this started out as a harmless drug trip. Then they started taking more and more. According to the eyewitness the dealer was giving them out like candy.

Then the inevitable happened. Taanesh arrived about 30 mins after that. He then put down the locals in a timely fashion.

My only real question about Taanesh now is what squad to place him with.

Heard a rumour about an interesting Stormer that had just signed up as a combat operative.
If the rumour is true then he would be a great addition to any of the operative teams we currently represent.
I looked into his first BPN carefully. In downtown sector there was a cable outage and protests had begun threatening to become riots. An everyday blue BPN which some level 10 operatives attended.
Taanesh was one of the quickest to get there. As far as I can tell from the Shiver captains report he managed to stop the area from becoming a warzone by securing a Monarch weapons facility and taking down a riot ringleader.
All in all a good job, he found a threat and neutralised it before it could become an Issue.

Just after the 2 competent and attractive operatives and their Ebon gimp had received there award we received word that more ferals had been spotted trying there power in down-town.

I issued a red, as did that whiny bitch Dusk.

The operatives actually tried to negotiate. Dusk saw this as futile and left crying about “there was no time to waste” and other soppy crap that I drowned out.

Me I listened.

More money was out of the question. Instead I gave them something much more valuable.
More Information.

The footage I got from this fight was glorious, such carnage such chaos and all in my name. Loved it.
A Feral actually folded part of the building they were in into the street. The ensuing madness will forever be as memorable as the property damage bill. Which now lies on Dusk’s account awaiting the Inquisitors investigation.

He really should get a better password or assistant. That dirty dirty girl.

Now I think time to end this.

So he has a DU detector in his suit now. To be fair I had overplayed that hand. Was worth it for when his hair fall out.

So our clever little operatives sided with with Dusk. That clever little human with them has decided to play Mummy against Daddy in an attempt to get more SLA-mas presents.

I am intrigued.

So they may have done the BPN in that genderless freaks name but they did track the suits down, and gave some damn right hilarious details about the stupid ferals using them.

1 actually folded himself into the ground another created a blast with himself as the point of origin.
Damn I would have loved to have been there for that.
Ah well the footage will have to do.

Also this time for the meeting Scours pet Ebon turned up looking as broken as you would expect give what happened on Pain.

Ah that was a good night.

So overseer REDACTED thinks Temperance might be onto something after all. If it works I’m all for more power. Wonder how long it would take me to convince him to use Dusk as a lab rat.

Speaking of Dusk his favourite operatives today stabbed him in his emotionless Ebon heart and choose my wonderful BPN over his.

As a result that bastard Wane is dead and his head is currently holding my pens for me. Dusk thought he might be redeemable even though he had further use to us.
We knew everything he knew.

Now to act on it.

Another BPN perhaps.

Then maybe I’ll put some more depleted uranium into Dusk’s coffee.

… and from the wreckage there was only one survivor a human girl, whose bravery is an inspiration to us all.

but in interesting news Jeromy Losado has an update on the Serial killer called Jill. Jeremy

Thanks Carmen, as many of you know Jill has been slashing her way onto our screens for the last few weeks with her own brand of murder killing people with the things the love most in a very public fashion.

Today however that killing spree ended as a group of operatives set a trap for her using her next planned victim as bait.

Not as bloody as we’d hoped but it’s been a slow day.

Here’s the footage.

Hear at ‘Views from the street’ we received a tip from a reliable source that something was going to happen at this little pet shop. Unbelievable I know.

Wait look there 3 operatives driving up to it they look ready for action.

Holy shit what just happened to the pet shop. Is that. Oh fuck it is. That sick bastard is covered in dead kittens.

Quick Jeff zoom in.

Wait looks like the Frother is a pet lover and not to happy about it.

Wow, did she.

Yeah she did. She stabbed him right in his kitten hating face and killed him.

Wow that is impressive that crazy bastard was wearing Doggybone.

Now what’s the Frother doing. Oh this is priceless. Jeff make sure you get a good angle on that.

I sent them after the Krell we believed to be in CS3, I half expected them to report it was a myth half expected to hear them die over the comms and have to send in a team of stormers.

Instead they took down the Krell with relative speed and efficiency, securing more of a sample than I expected. Operative Foster even volunteered to be a carrier of the laughing death to help our analysis.

I have to concede Roman was right.

As expected shortly after I despatched the operatives to take care of the situation the entire area was D-noticed.

REDACTED

Considering the amount of information they had they done well.

Roman is certainly persuasive I’ll give him that. If his operatives can solve the Daedalus situation then they may be the operatives I’m looking for.

Typical Roman never promising something before he knows he can deliver. The ops were tracking Daedalus down as we were having dinner. Lets see if they can handle the simple matter of a loner scientist with a drug problem, before I send them on the expedition.

Well they found Cahill, sadly already dead, more importantly they found his notes. Now I just have to decide if he’s worth cloning.

Now lets see how good Roman’s pet project is. Sample designated Queller has broken containment. If they survive they are perfect for the expedition.

As you know from my many previous reports I believed that Daedalus was a talented lone nut. I also repeatedly stated that Karma had ignored all of our intelligence on the subject and decided to enforce there own theory , purely because they couldn’t handle the idea of a small group or even an individual ripping them off the way that had happened.

Well I’m happy to report that thanks to a small BPN I was able to confirm my theories and have Daedalus and the Low Wave chased down.

This was all done at a fraction of the cost of Karma’s fruitless investigation.

Even taking into account the loss of the shiver clean up crew after the Tek Trex attack.

Overall the cost of the operation is easily outweighed by what we gained. Daedalus himself was secured. So now we get to probe that twisted mind of his and find out how he done it all.

I personally can’t wait. He partially reprogrammed a Manchine. I didn’t even realise that was possible. Not to mention the man hours of time we save just by stopping his attacks.

As for the operatives in question, they were a bargain at the price they were even able to ensure that all of my team survived the Tek Trex assault.

Price lists are listed below along with my estimates on the karma operations and projected future Daedalus investigations.

My initial meeting went as well as could be expected, they were sceptical of my sincerity.

The meeting was cut short by a red alert in down-town sector 4 in which they performed to their full potential. In front of a large media event no less. Getting this team on the right path may not be as difficult as I originally planned.

After the messy contracts business was sorted out, they jumped straight back into work. An enthusiasm I have to admire.

They took a BPN from an old associate by the name of Dusk at the same time spurring the same BPN offered by Blight. An in-house battle I hope will stay that way.

The squad got to work quickly tracking down the lost body of a Feral Ebon who had been removed from the Jade building. Surprisingly the Feral had been resurrected and proceeded upon his old habits where the Operatives tracked him down and dispatched him.

Nix: OK I’ll be taking your questions in a minute, first of all I’d like to thank all of our operatives who responded on scene as quickly as they did. I’d personally like to thank the shivers who selflessly evacuated the civilian population at the start of the conflict.

Reporter 1: Nix, how many thresher operatives were in the attack?

Nix: Reports are still being updated Bradley, but initial reports indicate that there were over 200 Thresher fanatics present.

Reporter 1: and how many …

Nix: There are no Thresher survivors.

Reporter 1: None at all?

Nix: Preliminary reports indicate our operatives were quite thorough.

Reporter 2: You said the shivers evacuated the civilians at the start of the conflict.

Nix: Yes Chandler. We got an early warning of the attack, that’s how the shivers got so many civilians to safety and why our operatives were on scene so fast.

Reporter 2: and the civi…

Nix: A press conference will be held at 8 this evening with residents of Sector 4. As we speak they are with trauma councillors. Or filling out housing forms so we can relocate them quickly after this terrible tragedy.

Reporter 3: What is the current operative casualty report looking like?

Nix: Presently quite optimistic, thanks mostly due to the advanced combat and healing drugs our agents use in the field.

Reporter 3: any exact figures?

Nix: For a more precise figure Julia I would suggest you watch some of the combat footage of our glorious operatives in action. Here I’ll show you some choice cuts now.

Reporter 3: Nix please

Nix: Roll it.

Close up of a Thresher agent being tackled to the ground. Agent is then slammed in the head with his comrades decapitated helm which shatters under the force of the Blow. The Frother operative the proceeds to beat on the agent till his helm cracks open. Then the Frother in a moment of pure bloody fury gouges his eyes out.

Nix: See a prime example of Sla operatives ruling the day. Ah Julia I forgot how squeamish you were.
