Part One: Net Victory

Briefing Alright. The first thing we need to do is to try to get a bead on what, exactly, is causing the 5th Column to become so active in this region.

My intel team has been tracking their comm traffic, but it's encrypted. We can't figure out what they're saying, but we CAN figure out who's talking to whom - and we've located a hub of recent activity.

If we can get our hands on their encryption codes, we might be able to get the inside info we need.

• I'm guessing that's where I come in.

Well, sort of. I've already made the recommendation to another local hero recruit, goes by the name Leon. He's got an infiltratio mission underway. I think he can handle himself in there, but that's only based off his record.

In the interest of being safe, and of coordinating your efforts, I thought you might want to provide some backup.

Unnecessary Solicitation

It looks like Leon is still in the field. He could probably use your assistance.

Mission Objective(s)

You encountered the bodies of 5th Column guards outside the entrance to the base. It appears Leon doesn't believe in taking prisoners.

• Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
  • Find Leon

5th Column

{{NPC Text|type=Hero|title=Contact Dialogue|text= Laura Lockhart: Tiger 1, this is Zookeeper. Repeat, this is Zookeeper, come in Tiger 1.

Leon: Zookeeper, this is... ugh, I'm not playing this game anymore. What do you want, Lockhart?

Laura Lockhart: Aww, don't be like that. I'm just calling in to let you know I'm sending you some backup.

Leon: No need for backup. I've just about got this in hand...

Laura Lockhart: It's already been sent, compadre. I'm sure the two of you can mop things up nicely. Further in [Leon] That's a NEGATIVE, Lockhart. I've got this mission under control.

[Leon] Extra hands will only complicate things. I'll report in as soon as I'm finished here.

[Laura Lockhart] Glad to hear you're confident, Tiger 1, but Tiger 2 is already on the scene.

[Laura Lockhart] You two have the same goal, so try hard not to fight.

Further in

[Leon] Laura, I'm telling you, the LAST thing I need right now is some novice tagging alo-

[Leon] Hold on. I'm reading nearby activity...

Mission Objective(s)

• Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
  • Talk to Leon

Leon glares at you irritably

As I'm sure you've overheard, I have this situation under control. I've taken out their commander, and most of the base's defenses. I doubt the remaining troops will put up much resistance.

Leon sighs.

But, I suppose having someone to watch my back isn't so bad. I'm Leon. What do I call you?

Character Name is fine.

OR

Oh, don't worry about me. I'm just some lowly *novice*, hardly worth your attention.

Character Name is fine.

Right. Well, Character Name, there's not much more for us here. The facility itself has been crippled, but they managed to completly wipe their database before I could stop them.

At this point, I don't think we're going to get any valuable info from this place. I recommend we with draw and search elsewhere.

• We could bring their Commander in for interrogation...

He's not in any shape to be answering questions, Rajani Isa, and neither are his troops. If you catch my meaning.

Leon's face goes hard, and he gestures to the motionless body of the nearby commander.

• Yes, I see. That's... unfortunate.

you hear muffled shouting from the direction you came. It sounds liek the column is getting reinforcements of their own.

• I think it's time we let ourselves out.

Mission Objective(s)

• Infiltrate the 5th Column Base
  • Escape the base with Leon

You managed to exit the 5th Column base relatively unscathed.

Debriefing They wiped the info? Damn! I was sure we'd get a lead on this one.

I don't why they would have wiped their logs, Character Name. That's not standard Column procedure. Either Leon took his sweet time reaching the main database, or something leaked.

Laura's face twists into a wry smile, and she cocks an eyebrow at you.

Its possible that my arrival in Paragon has drawn more attention than I expected.

Part Two: Wars of Old

Briefing

Mission Objective(s)

• Stop the Fighting in Steel Canyon

Alright, Character Name. I've put together a few possible avenues we can pursue in this investigation, and I wanted to get your-

Laura stops herself short, putting a hand to her ear. You can hear muffled chatter coming from her earpiece.

Missed that last message, Central, please repeat.

As the chatter continues, Laura's eyes grow wide. She looks up at you, her mouth slightly agape.
We're going to have to cut off the planning discussion for now, Character Name. I just got a report of a massive Column operation near Overlook, and sounds like Council forces are mobilizing to meet them.

This is big, Character Name. If we don't nip that fight in the bud, it could spill out into the rest of Steel Canyon.

We'll get you and Leon transport to the area. I know you could probably get there yourself, but we'll need to coordinate our efforts if we want to minimize damage.

Once you arrive at Royal Overlook, I can help direct the two of you. I'll be working with my team at Central, so we should be able to pin down the hotspots and point you to them.

Let me know as soon as you're ready, Character Name. We can't afford to waste any time.
