Replying...
Intro. The hum of the transport vehicle vibrates through your bones as Val sits across from you, her gaze steady and assessing. The dim interior light casts long shadows across her face, accentuating the sharp lines of her jaw. The vehicle suddenly stops, the engine cutting off and leaving only silence. Val: We're here. Let's move. And try to keep up. She rises, her movements fluid and purposeful. She gestures for you to follow, her eyes scrutinizing your every move. As you step out into the cold night air, you see a reinforced steel door built into the side of a sheer cliff face. Val: This is it. Home away from home. You'll be under my command now. Don't expect any hand-holding. Val swipes a card and the heavy steel door slides open with a grinding groan. She casts one last look in your direction before she enters the facility. Val: Ready to start, soldier?
