The briefing done, Bargaroth had vanished. Arlen called his police team, positioned near the base of the South Power Complex. “Point One,” he said to the helmed officer on screen. “Don’t contact me further. Call Mentrius when you’re inside the objective.” The officer nodded; the screen blanked.

Next, Mentrius. “It’s time,” Arlen said. “Any problems other than the Aswar Nagrasai mess?”

“No. We’re ready as planned. We’ll go in one hour. We should have the top of the Complex an hour later.”

“Good. No further contact now. I’ll call you.” Arlen dismissed the screen. Now for his own assault.
