Good evening, Mr. Graves. The IMC has authorized green-light status for the operation. Preliminary intelligence on OUYR is confirmed as viable and of operational value. For this purpose, a substantial sum has been transferred to your secured account. Funds are cleared for field use without restriction.

You are to proceed to The BARRACUDA and establish contact with the designated informant. The informant has passed background screening and is cleared on all internal risk indices. However, field advisory remains in effect: assume hostile capability. The informant is likely armed and may attempt counter-interrogation if compromised. You will be accompanied by HOLOCENE for operational oversight and extraction support. The current political climate in SOLANO is unstable but controlled. President Aurelio Vega has been temporarily relocated off-site for diplomatic meetings with the Republic of Zheng Fa, reducing immediate diplomatic exposure and lowering the probability of state-level interference during the operation window. Security infrastructure within SOLANO remains intact but fragmented between state-aligned forces and private contractors.

Remember. Whatever happens, has already happened.

The complex is embedded directly into the coastal cliffs of SOLANO, a geopolitically unstable coastal state with strained relations with multiple international bodies, including the United Nations framework.

Architecturally, the site is a layered fortress of luxury: reinforced cliffside construction, mirrored glass façades facing open ocean, and subterranean hospitality corridors extending into natural rock formations below sea level. Surveillance coverage is continuous and privately managed. You are, in the most literal sense, inside the lion's den.
