Lord Marshal was scribbling on reports he received from the Newbie Division. One, in particular, from Officer Jia Huang, who had been examining recruits, caught his interest. According to this officer, a squad of new recruits stumbled upon a demonic dungeon while scouting the Dark Cave.
Although Marshal had previously stated that no recruits should venture there, he still remembered asking a lieutenant to investigate the situation. It seemed that the lieutenant had delegated the mission to the Newbie Division.
That mistake should have warranted the lieutenant's removal from his post, but it led to an interesting discovery. The squad of five, who should never have returned, had three survivors.
Considering the severity of the situation and the reports from the Dark Cave, Marshal had expected the five to be dead or at least one lucky survivor. However, the return of three made him realize something was amiss.
