It's the afternoon when we arrive back at the Outpost where I find Andersen and the 3 CEOs waiting for meAndersen: You're back.
You: How's everything?
Ingrid: Everything is not good.
Mustang: Oui, it is not good.
You: I see...
Syuen: How can we deal with this?! At this rate, Missilis's reputation is going to be in shambles!
Ingrid: What she's trying to say is that we should try to have a press conference to calm people down.
Syuen: Hey!
Mustang: Oui, we should have a press conference. That shall sway public opinion.
You: What about the Outer Ring?
Syuen: We don't need to worry about them. They're just a bunch of low rats that are unimportant.
You: ...
Ingrid: I'll set up the conference.
You: Got it.
Ingrid walks out
Syuen: I'm going too. You take care of the protests... And you better do it right.
You: Sure...
Mustang: Don't worry Fern, I have faith that you can do it.
You: Thanks then.
Syuen and Mustang then walks out
Andersen: Additionally, I'd like to speak with you in the Command Center.
You: Let's go then.
Me, Mustang, and Andersen then walk into the Command Center
Andersen: I'd like to inform you that Enikk would like to have a word with you.
Me: Enikk?
Andersen: She is the overseer of the Ark.
You: ... So did I do anything wrong?
Andersen: Not that I am aware of.
You: Alright then.
It soon takes a while but I manage to reach Enikk's place somewhere in the Ark
Enikk: You're here.
You: You wanted to speak to me?
Enikk: Yes. I have a few questions to ask you.
You: Sure, let's hear them.
Enikk: I have been informed recently that you have made a temporary truce with the Raptures regarding the information with the Federation. Have you considered the Raptures betraying or collaborating with the Federation?
You: ... That has slipped past my mind a couple of times, but nothing has sparked red flags in my head as of now.
Enikk: You must be careful. According to my calculations as of this time, the Raptures pose a greater threat than the Federation due to their dominance in this world.
You: ... However, once the Federation gets serious, things are going to be very difficult for us.
Enikk: I understand. How do you plan on fighting once the Federation brings out more troops?
You: ...
Enikk: I would like you to be honest. You will not be punished for speaking negatively of the Ark.
