( Ana had spent the first few days holed up in an unused building, heading out when it had gotten dark to get a lay of the land, reading what she could on the phone she'd been given. It had been curious, but certainly more personal than informative )

It looks like my mission failed.
But I'm not the only one who has lost something, as unfortunate as that is.
Are they anything to do with the arrivals here, or is it coincidence?
There is more, I could guess that easily enough. Would I find a complete answer? That I doubt.

a guardswoman here

[sleepdarts]

That you probably shouldn't tell to everyone.

[mismanagement]

the guard is not secret

[sleepdarts]

Then that is fortunate.

[mismanagement]

not so in your world?

[Hmm.]

[sleepdarts]

It is not as simple to be able to answer that.
But I retired from that.

( 'Tried to' )

[mismanagement]

[That's a gentler way of saying things were political.]

retired but still on a mission

[That could be troublesome.]

are you going to make my life complicated?

[sleepdarts]

That can be an unfortunate casualty.
But it is not a goal.

[mismanagement]

attempt to make it a priority

we have larger concerns here

[sleepdarts]

I am already aware of that.

[mismanagement]

[sleepdarts]

What might I mistake?

[mismanagement]

who the enemy is

[sleepdarts]

Perhaps for some.
