FROM: @CMDR | TO: @ALL
ATTN: ALL PERSONEL.
We have had recent recruits that have joined our fight. I understand you have been briefed and given training for this mission and our stay in Aranean society. As for the rest: I am your Commanding Officer, Grothia, previously of the Regency. Unfortunately, at present, I am often tied up in diplomacy meetings with the high court. But you can reach me via your BCE, or at certain times during the day in COST's supplied quarters.
Field Officer Young, who is at present wearing of her human appearance, is also present. She can be found at similar through similar means.
If you have any concerns, you may bring them to either of us.
As for your mission here. Our main concern is to secure COST's supply of Ymir, this substance is responsible for powering all forms of time travel in the Galaxy and the dimension shifting required to do so. It is the bones of the fallen God, Ymir and it seems mankind was not made to touch their Gods. Aranean's are a species genetically made to mine such a thing and no human is capable of it. That is why they are absolutely crucial and our alliance with them over the Regency, at all costs, must be assured.
At present, High Queen Thsch is our best bet of this. There is no denying the woman is cruel. A slight is enough to make her snap your limbs, one by one. But the natural Jhashcn bias to those who would eat those who suppress inclines her to us, and we need to foster that fondness.
Her daughter, on the other hand, wishes to overthrow her mother, as is their way. So far in my dealings with her, she has been far more moderate. She favours neither heavy slavery nor absolute forms of punishment. She even has an open, qualitative relationship with her brother as I have observed them. They frequently whisper together at the meetings I have attended. That may be appealing, but she will have no bar with us, as we cannot at present assure what she needs to take the throne.
That is as much as my limited position has allowed me to learn. Sadly neither Officer Young or I can move too freely due to our high profile scrutiny. Remember: if it moves, it is a spy, here. There is nothing you say, or do, that is not being reported to someone unless it is done through the BCE.
As such: COST operatives, I require a debrief of your actions, so they we may assist one another. If you have an idea, a skill, speak up, so that we can use it. This is not a usual type of battle, more's the pity, and awareness of movements is needed more than ever.

LOOK WHAT YOU DID
I'll return to it in a moment. I conceed your point regarding changes. I think you're correct to say it's a matter of the extent of these changes. It certaintly feels like the most true representation of it all.
As far as spreading information. It would be very helpful if there were one or two statements said that can be pointed to as an absolute truth that came from the Regency's mouth. It's all well and good to points things out, but forcing the Regency to defend something that they themselves have already uttered would add to effectiveness.
Now, to your final suggestion: this is a high risk situation. What do you think we genuinely gain, and is there any way to recover if there is a loss? I'm worried about someone going in only to be destroyed.
I'M ASHAMED OF MYSELF
Nothing will come of that mess.
I agree, however, in that statements have to be made... unfortunately I'm not the best with words.
If someone could fashion subtle but impactful statements to twist into rumour, we can spread them.
We gain the favour of High Queen Thsch and the political gain would be staggering if we defeated two of the Regency's best.
Mhic Nathair is also a native Doine of Lemuria - the Araneans were created by her people.
Overthrowing Mhic Nathair and Kebechet would be a staggering statement.
It's worth the risk.
As for what would occur if we lost, I don't know.
It could be very bad.
(HE'S TRYING HIS BEST)
AS YOU SHOULD BE at least these two are getting along
You aren't the best with words, but if there are things you have overheard (and aren't traceable to your ears in specific), that is a place to start. I am unsure who would be well suited for this task myself, but whoever it is must be sought out within the next few das for this concept to be as effective as it could be.
...The Doine heritage is useful, especially in relation to propaganda. Revealing that particular element might galvanize the society against the Regency. But it isn't something that can be revealed too early, and I would defer to you and your work on when to deploy it.
This unknown quantity of what would happen if we lost is why I am hesistant about the fight element, in the end. The first part of what we've discussed seems straight forward enough to manage. If the evidence we present to the High Queen (and for argument's sake we should include the Doine element) is timed with a battle with Mhic Nathair and Kebechet, we could demonstrate that in defeat, this is what the two had been planning all along. But that assumes that we win the High Queen's favor.
...I believe I've actually just made the proposition riskier, haven't I?
BLESS THEIR HEARTS... LOOK AT THEM GO...
In the meantime we can think up some statements to make:
1. "The Prince and Princess are colluding with the Regency sect compromised of Doine operatives."
2. "If they take the throne, the Doine will once again have power over Jhashch and the Araneans."
3. "Was the Great Consumption for nothing?"
Et cetera.
You're suggesting the fight could be bait to use our own defeat against them?
You most certainly have made it riskier, but I like it - win or lose, we get a leg up.
There's now the matter of finding the most suitable candidates.
good job buckaroos!
It would be a means of at least trying to control the issue. But I think that additional safe guards are required, just to be certain that we have managed every angle of this.
If magic wasn't a disadvantage against the Regency and if I didn't trust them not to anticipate her, I would nominate Mordred for pure fury.

If I am to be put at risk by anything, it'll be the loose tongues of other COST operatives.
But we also have that situation under control, as stated by the Commander.
Understood.
I'll give this some thought.
We need to keep her in mind anyway.
I think Sebastian would make an extremely powerful choice.
I'd submit myself, but I believe there are those who are even stronger than me in this outfit.
no subject
I shall as well, as much as I am able. I dislike this, but it may be the best option available to us.
A list of five would be the wisest, so we can make determinations based on availability, willigness, and other factors. If I may state the obvious though, it'd be useful if we knew what to expect from them in combat. I'd feel safer with this option having that knowledge.

- Sebastian, strong beyond imaginability and very impressive
- The flashy blond one with several wings who seems bloodthirsty
- Saber, servant
- Rider, servant
- Me, I'm strong
- You, servant
- Dorian, he's a mage and despite being dangerous to everyone around him he's strong
- Leo would be useful in a fight, as his eyes are special and he sees more than all of us combined
- @SSSSSSSSS for the same reasons as above, a hacker
I confess I don't know many others.

Adding onto this list 76, Genji, and Samus, they're all quite skilled.
