Altis faceplanted as he was jettisoned from the warp, slamming into the ground. "Blasted woman," He muttered, climbing to his feet. Somehow, he hadn't broken anything except his nose, although his nose was bleeding profusely. He pulled out a monomate capsule and used it, causing the wound to rapidly heal, as well as giving him a bit of an energy surge. Looking around, the city was in bad shape. A quick consultation of his nanotranser's information system revealed his location to be New Rozenom City. Recognizing the danger, he activated his line sheild and readied his spear.
When the woman didn't appear after Altis stood around for a few minutes, he figured he'd have to find her himself. She apparently didn't know a thing about Gurhal, and she could do more harm than good to whatever the current situation was, if that was the case. As he slipped through the streets, he came across a lone soldier.
Pointing his gun at the newman, the human soldier shouted, "Surrender and allow yourself to be put in your proper place, or prepare to die!" Altis responded with a quick brandish of his spear. As the newman predicted, the man fired several shots his way. Moving quickly, Altis dodged all of them. Two more shots were deflected by the spear, before it ran through the human.
Although it was obvious this man was a racist in line with the thinking of the Illuminus, Altis wondered if he had anything to do with the situation here. A few minutes later, he recieved a communication signal.
"This is Guardians HQ, can you confirm that you are Altis Durge?" the voice said.
"Yeah, it's me," Altis replied.
"With all due respect, sir, you're supposed to be dead."
"Yeah, well the thing is..." Altis started, before giving a plot recap that I won't make you listen to again.
"That's rather unusual sir, but I have an official order to all Guardians in New Rozenom City. The city is under attack by a group known as the Neo Illuminus. There are rumors of a bomb, and we also need you to take out the EMP-based defensive grid they've set up. The AMF and a number of mercenaries are also in on this, so try not to stab first and ask questions later."
"Do I ever?" Altis said, a touch of sarcasm in his voice, before ending the communication. "This is more serious than I expected," Altis thought, slipping into a building, hoping to take more "indirect" forms of transportation through the city.
