Hello? Is this thing recording? Good, it works. My name's Lima. I'm a former operative of a freelance organization called The 26. I was a Handler for one of their newest agents. I took care of their mental, emotional, and physical well being as they became part of a secret program. The Phantom Initiative; to create the best agents, capable of doing extraordinary feats with the most hardened fortitude to endure whatever trauma they may come across.

Things were going well, I thought I was doing the right thing, helping The 26 stop a civil conflict in war torn Saddle Arabia. But then I learned the truth and so much more.

My bosses, the Directors, went under the alias of The Hidden Daggers many years ago. They preyed on the political and social strife of the nation for their own needs. Recruiting allies, they rallied the people under a false banner of equality. Eventually they lit the match that would set off the powder keg of war. All this, the blood, the suffering, all was just to test out this program.

I was lied to, threatened to keep this from the agent I was supposed to take care of. It wasn't right, it still isn't; I took what evidence I could and gave it to him. I trusted he would take it upon himself to bring the Directors to justice. He did; he not only ended the war they started, but brought them in to face their crimes.

You'd think that'd be it. Bad guys behind bars, the organization disassembled, the story is over, right? I wanted that to be the case. But it's never that easy. My evidence  revealed something troubling. The Phantom Initiative, turns out it was going on longer than I'd realized. And to get answers, I'll have to find the Directors themselves. So tomorrow, I'm off to Saddle Arabia. Here's hoping it's a smooth process.
