>Connection Request—E-02 Babylonia Private Channel
Command here.
Gray Raven Commandant! Are you aware of the risks of your actions?
In the name of the Babylonia Council, I'm ordering you to retreat, Gray Raven!
This is insubordination.
Your actions have severely compromised the strategic safety of Babylonia.
Your commanding authority will be suspended temporarily. I repeat. Withdraw immediately.
Warning! An unauthorized third party has entered the channel!
What is this madness?! This is a private channel!
Oh, sorry folks. Late for the video conference.
President Hassen?
If the Gray Ravens retreat, what are we going to do about Kamui?
Just a defective Construct. It's not worth an entire elite squad for him.
But he did display a possibility to fight against the Punishing Virus.
That is only what his leader is saying. Even the Purifying Force has not given a concrete answer. This is too much to risk an elite squad for an uncertain return of this degree.
You know, that sounds just like what an elite squad is for.
President!
Can't babysit them all your life, mom.
Wha—?!
Ah, just a joke, chill.
Alright, loosen up a little. Trust them more, for they know what they're doing.
We'll need to assess Chrome's report as well.
No time to chitchat around here now.
Gray Raven squad, HQ will be airdropping you some supplies. The drop location will be sent to Liv through Celica. Retrieve them, then finish the mission quickly and return safely.
Wait, I'm not done yet—
Disconnected.
Ah, got it! I have the coordinates for the supplies. It's near us.
The airdrop will likely cause commotion and attract some Corrupted.
Karen and Watanabe will be protected by the Forsaken and be repaired at their campsite. As for Karen's situation, she should be stable in the meantime with the sleep command.
We can wait until after the mission to bring Karen back to Babylonia for a full checkup.
Let's go. With the Ascendants involved, the situation is urgent.
