Arcadia Headquarters...
3rd Person POVDirector: This, my dear friends, is the city of New Haven.
Taking another look at the wonderous city below them, they reacted as anyone would.Roxanne: It's...
Natalie: Captivating.
Director: I would hope so. The city of New Haven is by far the largest, and the most prosperous, in the new world.
Natalie: The new world?
The director continued to tall as they entered the building from the rooftop.
Director: In a world filled to the brim with Ferals, monsters, thieves, and scavengers, Arcadia Industries has made it possible for everyone to live and prosper here in peace. Away from the dangers that lurk on the other side of those walls.
The director pressed a single button on the wall, prompting an elevator to rise.
Director: While other cities live in some of the poorest conditions possible, we here in Arcadia have strived to not only ensure the safety of our people, but to innovate New Haven towards the future; All the while, providing assistance to those in need in other parts of the world, whether it's food, water, labor, protection, the whole nine yards.
Roxanne: Like home.
Director: I apologize if what I'm about to say seems ill-mannered, but the people of Los Angeles...
Seeing the redhead glare, he tried to backpedal.
Director: Well, at least the council, were a bit too arrogant about their city. Despite our attempts to reach out to them, they never once accepted our assistance.
*Ding!*
When the elevator door opened up, the three of them entered inside before the director closed it.
Natalie: Why would the council not accept any assistance?
The man shrugged.
Director: We don't know. When we identified a large group of Ferals heading in their direction, we reached out to them once more. But of course, they declined. We sent out a rescue team despite them, and well... you see the rest.
Roxanne: Why send a rescue team despite them? You could have easily left us to die.
Director: What are your names, if you don't mind me asking?
Roxanne: Roxanne. Roxanne Blazkowicz.
Natalie: Natalie Blazkowicz.
Director: So you're sisters?
They both nodded.
Director: Well, Roxanne and Natalie... we could've left you two for dead, as for the others the team have picked up, but as the head of this branch, I say that's not how we fly here.
