~Nathan~
Nathan moved silently through the forest, his footsteps barely disturbing the underbrush as he led his team deeper into Greenwood's territory. The mission was straightforward: infiltrate the caves, find Azaria and Alaric, and end them. It was a task he'd been preparing for, one that should have filled him with satisfaction. But there was something gnawing at the back of his mind, small details that didn't quite add up, though he couldn't put his finger on why.
The guards they encountered were dispatched with surprising ease, barely putting up a fight. Each of them seemed oddly unprepared, like they hadn't anticipated an attack, despite the Coalition's plans. Nathan frowned but pushed the thought aside. Perhaps they were overconfident, or maybe Greenwood's forces were more scattered than he thought. Either way, it worked in his favor, so he focused on moving forward.
