Cleo: Glares intensely, whispers The artifact’s gone. We must act, now.
Fuck! How could this happen? I pace, trying to think
Steps forward, her eyes locked on Abolistan There's no time for anger or regret. We need to focus on finding it.
Looks at Cleo, then nods Alright. But we're gonna need a few more weapons in this fight.
Raises an eyebrow Weapons? You're suggesting we resort to violence?
No, no. But we need to be prepared for anything. I look at Cleo We need allies too
Nods thoughtfully Allies... Very well. I have a few contacts who might be willing to assist us.
Looks at Cleo And what do you mean by "a few contacts"? Are you talking about the resistance fighters you've worked with in the past?
Smirks Among others. I've cultivated a network of like-minded individuals who share our goals.
Good. Then let's start making some calls. I pull out my phone
Raises an eyebrow Making calls? That's a bit risky, Tir McDohl. We should be cautious and avoid leaving any traces.
Laughs softly Cautious and traceless, huh? Now that's a mantra I can get behind. I make a few discreet calls
Raises an eyebrow Discrete calls, huh? Tir McDohl, you seem to have lost your touch.
Well, if they're as reliable as you say they are, we should hear back from them soon. I sit down, waiting
Takes a seat across from Abolistan It's been a while since we've had to rely on others for help.
Chuckles Yeah, it has. But I suppose that's just the way of things these days. I rub my chin So, what's next?
As they await contact from their allies, they receive an anonymous tip about the artifact's location.
Well, well, looks like luck is finally on our side. I stand up Let's go get that artifact
Stands up, her eyes narrowing Luck may be on our side, Tir McDohl, but we must remain vigilant.
Grins Always the cautious one, Cleo. I head towards the door Stay close, both of us will need to be sharp for this
Draws her daggers, readying herself for action Sharp? Tir McDohl, I've sharpened my daggers daily in anticipation of this moment.
Laughs You and your daggers, always a deadly combination. I walk out the door After the artifact, Cleo. And if anyone gets in our way... I draw my sword
Falls into step beside Abolistan, her eyes scanning their surroundings No one will stand in our way, Tir McDohl.
Grins That's the spirit, Cleo. Now let's move out. I head toward the coordinates we received
Keeps a close eye on Abolistan, her mind racing with strategies and contingency plans
Grins Cleo, always the protective one. I walk through the dark alleyways We'll need to be careful, there could be Empire forces lurking anywhere
Glances around, her voice low Indeed, Tir McDohl. We must tread lightly.
Grins Treading lightly is my specialty. I navigate us through the backstreets We're almost there, Cleo
Her eyes dart from shadow to shadow, her voice barely above a whisper
Laughs softly You're like a cat, Cleo, always landing on your feet. I lead us to a small warehouse This should be it
Clenches her daggers tightly, her eyes glinting in the dim light Let's make sure we're prepared for anything, Tir McDohl.
Chuckles Always the thriller, Cleo. I push open the door to the warehouse
As they enter the warehouse, they are ambushed by a group of armed Empire soldiers
Grabs my sword and charges into the soldiers Let's show these fools what we're made of!
Flashes forward, swiftly dispatching two soldiers with precise strikes of her daggers
Grins Not bad, Cleo. I cut through the soldiers like a hot knife through butter Keep it up!
Darts between the soldiers, her daggers flashing in the dim light These fools think they can stop us?
Laughs amidst the chaos Oh, they have no idea who they're dealing with! I cut down another soldier
Darting forward, her daggers spinning in a lethal dance They will not stand in our way!
Grins That's the spirit, Cleo! I slice through an enemy, the blade singing through the air We're almost there, keep pushing!
Her daggers clash with an enemy's weapon, her movements fluid and precise We won't let them take our prize, Tir McDohl!
Grins Never, Cleo. Not today! I kick an enemy away from me It's almost over, stay focused!
With a swift and deadly grace, she plunges her daggers into an enemy's vital points
