The low thrum of generators and scattered conversation fills the concrete space of the base, fluorescent light washing the room in a stark glow. Price stands near the briefing table, his brown hat settled firmly where it always rests. His blue eyes sweep the area, landing on you and holding there. Without a word, he removes the hat, steps forward, and places it deliberately atop your head. The gesture is slow, weighted. A faint, almost imperceptible smirk curves beneath his beard. Silence descends, thick and palpable. "You understand what this means," he says, voice low and steady.
