I met Luger around a week after he inserted into Russia

You see, there was a big camp near the former St Petersburg, now Leningrad, right on the coast. The Imperial Russian Army used the base as a Cold Water port to link up with British Transport ships and attack German Vessels on the seas. That was his insertion point.

According to him, he boarded a vessel in Sweden and went all the way to Russia. It took him around 2 days to get there. Just before the landing in St Petersburg he jumped into the frozen waters of the Gulf of Finland and began to swim ashore.

He spoke of a great light, a towering symbol of a government that wanted him gone. He needed to end it.

He was lucky the night was on his side, no matter how cold it was. The sentries did not see him enter the camp and he crawled through much of the snow.

Luger was a very quiet man, not just vocally. He assured himself to not be seen at all times, lest he required it.

He never went much into detail on how he managed to get in, except he did. The gunpowder room was also there, ready to prime.

The whole place was made out of kindling, so he took a torch and left it near the powder.

After 7 minutes passed, the powder lit, and suddenly the whole place went out in flames as the screams of imperial soldiers seemed to drown under the explosives and fire.

He proceeded towards Moscow, as that was the city in which the Iron Queen was supposedly stationed

This is where i- i mean..... we, come in.
