-I'll leave you, see you later! It was Killjoy for your greatest pleasure.
Killjoy" cut the live show she was broadcasting, it was almost three o'clock in the morningwhen she greeted her subscribers. Before disconnecting from the streaming platform, shetook a look at the chat that wished her a good night and then she turned off her computerwith a smile on her face. She was going to do the same with her laptop but she received anemail notification on her work mailbox, it was quite rare to receive it so late at night, so sheopened the email.
"Good evening, Romy Rosenthal,We've been following your live shows for several months now and have spotted a certaintalent for mechanics and programming in you. Our organization is looking for young peoplelike you in order to expand and allow you to develop your talents.Thus, we offer you a collaboration in exchange for your services we provide you withpremises, equipment and a monthly salary.

Our HQ is located in Morocco but we have cells allover the world so you will be able to live wherever you want.If you are interested in our offer, you can contact us so that we can discuss the conditions aswell as some details.Yours sincerely,Brimestone, CEO of Kingdom."
The young woman was quite perplexed by the email, the offer seemed far too good to betrue. She then searched the internet for the company's name and immediately understoodwhat it was all about. The name had already been in the news for several months, both forgood and bad, and on the social networks everyone was fighting over who was the mostdeadly organization. In fact, she remembered answering a question about these twoenemies, she said that with the fake news and disinformation, the only way to find out wouldbe to look inside and make up your own mind. This email could give her the opportunity togo and see, in addition to making money, she could inform her fans of the situation. It wasthe perfect opportunity.
The next day, after a call with the German cell in Kingdom, Romy was already ready to packher bags to go to Morocco, the only condition she had to respect while going there was notto warn her subscribers to avoid unnecessary conflicts. Only, the absence of such a bigpersonality did not go unnoticed.
That's all we used to talk about on social networks: Where has KillJoy gone, the stremeausefollowed by millions of young people around the world? She was a great player of thefamous League of Legends game but also a talented mechanic who tried to create weaponsstraight out of her favorite video games. For several weeks, no news of the young star.Some people think that she was arrested for possessing weapons, others say that she isdoing this for the buzz and that she will come back even more popular, in short all sorts oftheories were circulating on the net. Alas for all fans of the streamer, the truth was quitedifferent, the young woman had engaged herself without really knowing it in a merciless warbetween two organizations.
Despite her absence, Killjoy was still posting photos or posting on social networkspretending to be on vacation.
While the young Romy was learning the art of war in Morocco, most of her unheard of fansbegan investigating her disappearance, the smartest of them having already made theconnection with Kingdom. Through focus groups, they searched for clues and evidence ofher involvement in the organization. They soon came across the trail of Valorant: Kingdom'sopponent. After a few discussions, members of Valorant went to the field to answerquestions from the fans.
