[1 - later than other two prompts actually]
[With some caution regarding use of unfamiliar technology, Sielje reviews a mission recording time and time again. Or rather, a part of it - one during which her own words can be clearly heard. A desperate confession forced by an enemy...]
There is no way to make this disappear...
...
So be it, then. This is, after all, the truth.
Painful may it be.

"I could not find lord Ishin."
[Ynya returns from a short visit to the Fumerco headquarters. For some reason, his entrance nor leave was not halted by anyone.]
"I saw it - war machines torn to shreds, killed guards... only armed guards. But no sight of Ishin, he is gone like the wind itself."

"It is not his style to murder a defenseless servant. But one with a weapon, even if he is no more of a match to Ishin... regardless, this is not all. Please take a look at this. It is a 'copy', one of many."
Kimhone has in her hands a file of documents. Even cursory reading reveals incriminating evidence - a whole lot of incriminating evidence. Illegal black ops operations, biotech research that violates multinational law (and was done on beasts imported from Ankaia)... it's enough to sink Fumerco forever.
"These papers are strewn all over the Fumerco merchants' building. Not very well guarded, for their contents. I believe Ishin said he needs them no longer? This looks to be his parting gift, to ensure Fumerco will disappear as a player in his game."

"Hmm. But there is something else. Good news, for a change."
The Champion's Arm holds something in its hands.
"This is a device. I am no expert at such matters but it looks like something to open a portal to Ankaia. Very similar to what we have back on our planet... but smaller, more limited. Fumerco had it, and it seems undamaged. Shall we try?"

[One matter yet remains...]

"Perhaps... it was my mistake to reach out to Fumerco. Blinded by my own optimism, I could not see through intentions of leaders behind it until it was too late. I was blind to many things that seem so obvious now."

"We all made mistakes. What to do of them but to learn and move forward? Look to the future. Is that not right?"
[Kimhone and Ynya both turn towards the third person present.]

"..."
[Sielje is not too eager to start a conversation. Have you something to say perhaps, before leaving the three alone?]

"You saw him fight. Even on foot, he has might to cleave machines in two. Against his skill, Fumerco's guards stood no chance. And... he has pride. He considers himself strongest and would not ask for help of others."

I'm just... not sure what to think of the situation. Some others here may have seen something similar, given that they're more experienced than I am. But this is the first time I've come to know of a person trying to take on the world alone...

"It seems unlike those of Old Watch who know of Earth, Ishin does not truly realize how massive and diverse it is. He may be able to fight his way through a building, but what of a country? A continent?"

[As today has proved.]
There is another thing: what will you two do now that he has revealed his intention?

Ynya stares at the Fumerco portal opener.
"I consider challenging him the moment he shows his head again. But more prudent would be to do that the way you do."

"Yes. I will try to strike an agreement. If you consider the threat Ishin poses towards Earth, it should not be hard."

If it means ending things before more bloodshed, there's no doubt the UG will agree.
