Commander Sable's tone was worrying which made Mako even more anxious about what the mission was as the commander wasn't one to ever show worry or concern on his face.
"In the aftermath of your last mission, we tried everything to get Victor to regain his memory as many things didn't quite add up." The commander explained.
"Firstly, the reason for Victor and his men to be clearing out the village using that illusion device to make shadows and scare away the locals away didn't make any sense."
Mako too was quite skeptical about Victor's motives, as it didn't really make much sense to use so many resources to clear out a simple village. By the time Mako and his friends had arrived on the scene, only the rich had evacuated as they could afford to do so while the others were still entrapped within the village with occasional hauntings from that device driving more of them away.
