• Sometime later, the six of us had headed into a huge base camp where various operations are held. Sounds like this must be the main army, that's what I'm thinking. And speaking of this whole base camp, we meet the leader of this group who calls himself James Radnor. He tells us that Raymond Findley is his second-in-command since he was sent to investigate any fallen towns that he comes across. I wonder if he's a rebel soldier like I am?

    [the jeep comes to a stop as the six of us get out]

    Me: Wow, I've never seen a base operation like this. If I were to expand my fleet this big, I can easily incite some reinforcements for the full-scale battles to come.

    Soren Whisperwind: These soldiers are very busy. I wonder where the commanding officer is, the one controlling this whole entire base?

    Driver: He's over there. [escorts us to the officer who calls himself James Radnor]

    James Radnor: So those are the survivors found in the fallen city?

    Driver: Yes, sir.

    James Radnor: [looks at all six of us] Are you guys alright?

    Baruch van Austins: Yep.

    Shinon Stormrage: Not a scratch on me.

    James Radnor: Well, glad to see that you guys are safe. The name's Radnor, James Radnor. I received word from both the Gaian Dominion Task Force and the United Earth Confederacy that the undead forces have swept through several places in the world, including Barton. That's why I sent my second-in-command, Raymond Findley, and most of my men to investigate.

    Soren Whisperwind: That must be the guy who found us, huh?

    James Radnor: That's him.

    Noriko Sanban: Did, by any chance, the animated attack you recently?

    James Radnor: Nope, but they did invade the Dominion Task Force, even though they failed since the UEC arrived just in time. I only sent a small squad to aid those who were wounded. However, I'm planning to organize an army for myself so I can aid the two.

    Me: Well, I need to warn my clan about the legion of animated and undead.

    James Radnor: You have a clan?

    Me: I'm the leader of the Full-Moon Sentinels. They might be someplace in a town of Night Elves, or so I've heard. I want to warn them all so I can size myself up with an army of my own.

    Soren Whisperwind: I can help you, Dave. Some of my brothers were last seen in one of the Night Elf towns. I can rally them up and aid you in combat. Besides, the undead forces don't seem THAT powerful.

    James Radnor: Hmmm... it's kinda hard for me to say to you guys. I'll tell you what... I'll help you guys in gathering up warriors for yourselves. If you help me with certain tasks, I'll provide you with some of my men to assist you from time to time. I don't have much time to plan out some retaliating invasions since I'm planning one out right now, but it would be nice for you guys to aid me in battles from time to time.

    Soren Whisperwind: We'll do it.

    James Radnor: Really?

    Megumi Tekarukite: We'll never fight a huge army with just the six of us.

    Soren Whisperwind: That's why he'll aid us with his men. But even if he has limited soldiers, we'll have to make do with what we have. Does that sound OK?

    Megumi Tekarukite: [brief pause] I guess.

    Soren Whisperwind: Alright. [to James] OK, we'll help you, sir. I'm willing to risk this one.

    Me: Same. Who knows when will the undead launch their next attack---and where?

    Baruch van Austins: I'd rather not wait for it. And I won't stand down so easily.

    James Radnor: You guys are a big help, I owe you all one.

    Soren Whisperwind: No problem. Shall we go over our plans later?

    James Radnor: We'll go over the tasks soon; you guys better be ready.
