"My Imperitor (Emperor) the reports from the scouting battalion sent to the gate at Alnus have arrived" Said Domini Gregorio Leune Vandorbylt .
"Tell me what have they written?" Responded Emperor Kolt Sol Augustus , "They report that most of the unit has been killed, there were few survivors and those who did survive have, concerning news" Gregorio said with a anxious face as the Emperor seemed confused and angered "Go on, do tell what they have to report" "They report that they made contact with the world beyond the game, and it seems there were humans inhabiting this new world, it seems that the battalion made contact with a large city, there a reports of large and tall structures even some made of... glass?" Gregorio said confused as to how a structure could be made of glass but continued on speaking "alongside that was a seemingly large road network through this city, the scouting went well initially with the men easily able to overpower the civilian forces in the area and even able to get many onto our side of the gate...until they encountered what is believed to be an army force from a nearby military outpost or a militia force" Gregorio read as his eyes darted across the paper muttering quietly attempting to make sense of what he was reading "What does the report say Gregorio" the Emperor demanded as Gregorio snapped back from his muses "They report of advanced weaponry the enemy had, mechanical hovering wyverns equipment with incredibly accurate rocket battery systems, repeating rifles, and even access to landships" "How strange, it seems that the world across ours does not not lack in advancement like what was imagined, no wonder the scouting battalion was wiped out, if the enemy outnumbered them then it's most possible they could have slaughtered them if they had technology similar to ours"

"We must prepare for a counter attack from the enemy!!! We must build a defensive structure around the gate and muster forces for a large offensive through it, not just a scouting battalion" Said Domini Haenrik Agouti Maynus. Mutters and voices from every corner of the senatorial building were heard as the near hundred strong senate squabble amongst itself, many agreed whilst some believed it was best to pursue diplomatic action whatever nation lie beyond the doors of the gate.
"Domini Haenrik has a good point, we must station the 4th Division at Anlus and build a defensive barrier around the gate, if the enemy come we will be prepared, we will hold off on diplomatic action for now, just because they have technology similar to our does not mean we must bend to their will and expose our weaknesses" Said the Emperor "And what of Duran, is he among the survivors of the attack"
"There is no report of Duran dying but he is not among the men who reported back to fort Agius" Said Domini Gregorio.

A young man listened intently on the radio the newsman spoke "The president has confirmed
the movement of over 80,000 troops from the Army and Marine corp along side nearly 25,000 Canadian, Japanese, and Korean will take part in what is being called Operation Liberation which will see an invasion and hopefully, unconditional surrender of what many are saying is a nation called the Saderian Empire, this comes as congress passes a resolution to invoke article 14 of the Treaty of Free Nations, congressman John Baker spoke on the matter saying "The attack on March 30th was not just an attack on the United States but of the very ideals of freedom and democracy, we feel that Americans and our allies must hold together unified and fight off and defeat whatever may lay beyond the gate" many question whether the sole entrance to the gate being the United States may spark the beginning of a new age of colonialism for th..." the newsman said as he was cut off as the volume on the radio was lowered.
"Ya here that John? They gon send the Marines " Said Private First Class Bruce Smith his right hand on the volume of the radio, left hand on his cigarette, "What's the point of sending us all in? The rest outside the Marines aren't good for anything but crying when their HQ doesn't give them enough diapers to shit their pants with," responded Private First Class John Lee laying on the bed, feet kicked up over his nightstand and April's edition of Playboy in his hands.
"That's what I been thinking!!! Why would they send over 100,000 guys across the gate when the enemy we're fighting don't even know what the fuck a lightbulb is!!, it's all a ploy guys, they're trying to hide something" said Bruce as he spoke louder to get the attention of his entire squad, "Bruce, shut the fuck you communist, limp dicked ,cock-sucker what could they be hiding that's weirder than a fucking gate to another world?" said Ray Beford, "I don't know man, I joined the marines to kill and serve my country, not to think and analyze", "then maybe you should just shove a cock in that little mouth of yours and not say anything like a good marine does" "good marines suck dick? you must the founder of the damn corps then," "'Bruce I didn't mean it like ... you know what? I'm just going to fucking kill you", "I'd like to see you try you godda..". The men of fireteam Pioneer 2 bickered as they awaited orders for the attack across the gate.
