The Agency had one rule.
Do not talk about the Agency.
In the eyes of the public, they did not exist.
They were only known to those they worked with.
High ranking officials, important neutral agencies that controlled trade and defence, their own members and agents -- these were the select few aware of the presence of this ghost organisation.
But now, Lina knew.
When Lina begged Tachi, he felt he would give her anything she wanted.
The only outsiders who knew or were allowed to be part of the agency was family.
"Lina, they won't let you in. The only way is if you are immediate family of a member or agent of the Agency."
With a complicated expression on his face, Tachi proposed a plan to Lina.
If she wanted to go with him, he would not stop her.
He selfishly convinced himself that she wanted this more than he did. His desires played no role.
She was a lonely, misguided child. And he took advantage of it.
