Participants:
"We're in the clear. Omen, Reyna, Chamber, Vyse, Jett, Tejo."
"What about Waylay? Veto?"
"They're thinking it over."
"What's to think about?"
"They're picky who they work for. They don't know you."
"Harbor is on our side."
"Really?"
"And Skye."
"Skye's too exhausted to care. Ever since Sage went down. We need an answer there. Same as Alpha. Does someone want to talk to Astra?"
"Sova, you do it. And bring Harbor."
"Don't forget, Neon is spinning. This is a lot for her."
"Yoru is with her now, if we have Neon and Jett it might convince Raze, we'll get the whole mischief gang. Fade and Cypher?"
"Leave them. Whatever they're thinking you won't change it. If they're not with us, we'll know."
"I spoke to Deadlock, she's not on board."
"She doesn't care about Brimstone?"
"She cares about loyalty."
"Talk to her again. Who else is a problem?"
"Definitely Killjoy, she's PISSED."
"And Kay/O. Kay/O is a BIG problem."

"Liam. Your question earlier, the one I dodged. You deserve an answer. Of course I thought about it. You're an idiot sometimes. That bleeding heart of yours is going to get more than just you killed. At some point, you'll stand in the way of a needed sacrifice and I will act. But despite the appearance of present circumstances, it's not today. There's no plot to overthrow you, old friend. You have nothing to fear from me."

Participants:
"Shut the door. Okay, listen up. You want clarity? Here it is. Brimstone is out. I am in command. I understand that makes some of you uncomfortable, you're fond of the old man. But before you scream betrayal, answer me this. What is our purpose? Legion. Why are we here? To be soldiers? Symbols? No. Our purpose is to end the Alpha threat. Not fight them. End. Them. Alpha Earth is killing us. And what have we, the 'beloved and celebrated' Valorant Legion done about it? Nothing. Less than nothing. Our spike extractions have plummeted. We were miles ahead technologically. Now those miscreants invade our world. We are so incompetent even Atlas tries to do our job. You think this is about loyalty to Brimstone? No. This is about doing what is necessary. Sova sees what I see. Do you doubt my intentions? Do you doubt his? And Yoru? And Breach? Have you all forgotten Sage, soaking in a chem bath right now just to stay alive? We're done shedding tears for a leader who could not do his job. We are done doing things his way. No more rules, no more fighting fair. The only thing that matters is finishing this. We will cross the line, pursue their pain, and break them by any means necessary. Here are your orders."

"Follow me here, I'm working the problem. Just wanted a sounding board but your... voicemail will do. Hourglass tried to kill me. Why? Logically there's only one answer, my research. They wanted to "prevent humanity from discovering radianite", so they send Omen to kill me, he fails, First Light happens and... Sigh Everything changes. That all tracks. Hourglass has failed. BUT. They keep working. They send operatives around the world to recover radianite artifacts. Why? What are they still hiding? There must be something, Brimstone. There has to be more, for Omen's sake. For mine. Ugh. Call me back."

"Liam, we need to talk. When Omen didn't know about his past, he was contained. A known entity. We kept him in the dark to protect both him and us. I had to lie to him. He... He tried to kill me. Now he's starting to piece things together and I... I can't anticipate his actions now. Will he retaliate? Maybe leave the protocol? There are... Too many variables out of my control. Sigh Keep an eye on him."
