Mr. Walten stared at his reflection in the window of his top story condo overlooking the City of Fountains. Slowly, he brought the crystalline glass to his lips, drinking the golden liquid inside. His caramel eyes moved to the shuffling reflection that entered the room.

“Tell me you have some good news for me,” Walten said, quickly loosening his tie as he turned to face General Jeron Feyette.

“The Elixis scientists have arrived safely. They are currently setting up their equipment in the lab.”

“About damn time I received some good news. I really needed that building!” He slammed his glass onto his desktop and quickly refilled it. He didn’t hesitate to drink the contents and refill it once again. “Doesn’t matter,” he sighed. “It’s only a minor setback.”

Jeron watched the CEO with emotionless eyes.

“I have my scientists. They have their notes. They will just have to team up with Camery and start rebuilding the equipment that was lost. At least those menacing soldiers are out of the way now.”

Jeron cleared his throat, interrupting the younger CEO’s raves. Walten turned his attention to the general, a shocked look on his face.

“They are dead, correct?”

“We have not been able to confirm that, sir,” Jeron answered in his baritone voice.

“What do you mean, confirm? Haven’t all the bodies been identified?” he sneered.

“So far, nobody has come up of anonymous origin. Seeing as the four had entered the city under false identities, there would be no way to identify the bodies. Everyone’s been accounted for, and all are legal Cherno residents and military,” Jeron replied.

“And I assume you checked the military offices and prisons?”

“Yes, sir. No anonymous beings were ever mentioned in the reports.”

“Damn it!” Walten threw his glass across the room. It shattered into a hundred pieces against his rich mahogany wall. “Surely, those beasts would have murdered them brutally like they did to the men in Pierre. If not them, then the other military at least! I bet Lebedev is somehow involved in this secrecy.”

“Would you like me to question Clarke?” Jeron asked with slight amusement to his voice.

“No. Let me deal with Clarke. I want your men to keep a close eye on all private forms of communications. We can’t have those four ruining everything; I’ve already lost Elixis because of them. This is a delicate matter.” Walten turned to Feyette. His golden-brown hair was a ruffled mess from his constant running through. “I want those soldiers out of commission, you hear? I need that Sorcēarian and girl brought back to me. Understand?”

Jeron saluted roughly to his advisor. Coldly, he replied, “Yes, sir.”
