"Echo, this is Delta. We reached the cave. Over."
"Copy, Delta. Search the place for hints. We need to understand what happened. Over."
Two squads had been sent to the east to investigate the disappearance of a squad. They had been sent to care for a Nogith colony with a high risk of migrating to the west and toward the city if whatever was affecting the ecosystem pushed them to do so. It was of the utmost importance to cull their numbers.
The last known communication of the team said that the quest was partially clear, as the team collapsed the cave where the Nogith colony hid. However, more than six days had passed since that communication, and no trace of the squad remained from that moment. However, the team previously sent here, the Charlie squad, was an elite one.
I thought it was important to let you see what was happening around Erik and give you a clearer picture of the situation. Hope you enjoy the chapter.
As always, don't forget to vote with powerstones if you like the story, it helps the novel getting visibility! :D
