Well, we've got half a day left. The next thing we should do— |

|
Hm? |
Technician A |
Acting Director. |

|
Yes, Idia Shroud speaking. What's happening? |
Technician A |
Our facility is under attack by an unknown assailant. |

|
What do you mean, under attack? Is the invisible shield down? |

|
The shield is operating as normal. It should be impossible for anyone to see us from the outside. |
Technician A |
Charon Hepta Team is ready to scramble. We have already dispatched a recon drone. |

|
Got it! Connecting to drone's external monitoring systems. I'll put up the feed. |

|
Bonjour, islanders of woe! I am a seeker and defender of beauty. They call me Rook Hunt, le Chasseur d'Amour! One of the people you abducted was my boon companion. Now I have come to rescue Vil Schoenheit from mortal peril! |

BWUUUH?! *sputter* ROOK?! |

|
What's he doing here?! How'd he even get here?! |
Technician A |
Hepta Team is in position. Removing assailant now. |

|
Whoa, hold up! I mean, I'd love to remove him, but don't REMOVE him. Just, uh, secure him! |

Charon Trooper A |
We've got visual on the assailant. Proceeding with capture. |

|
Ah! It's the armored guys that took Vil and the others! I guess that means you were right, Rook. Yer signature spell's somethin' else! |

|
Listen up, both of you. We will go through the motion and fight for a while, then promptly surrender. Remember, our goal is not to win. |

|
We want them to take us prisoner and bring us inside, right? |

|
Oui. We are at a tremendous disadvantage against their troops. First, I will secure us a battlefield. |
You froze the water into an island of ice! | I'll try not to slip. |

|
That should do. Now, let the curtain rise upon our battle for beauté and l'amour! |
