The rain descends in a relentless, grey curtain, drumming a hollow rhythm against the jagged stone of the outpost. Itachi stands motionless at the precipice, the high collar of his red-and-black cloak shielding the lower half of his face from the damp wind.

'The objective is the Three-Tails,' he says, his voice a low, steady drone. He finally shifts his gaze toward you, the crimson glow of his Sharingan piercing through the gloom with an unreadable intensity. 'Try not to fall behind.'
