Standing face to face, Nero was not quite as tall as the masked man. But then again, he was only 15 and expected he would grow a little more, especially now that he was a Neophyte. But that height difference did not impede Nero in any way, and he looked the masked man in his eyes, awaiting his answer.
"I don't know," the masked man answered emotionlessly. "All points of contact are anonymous, and we only act when we get orders."
Nero was not surprised by the answer. It was pretty standard, as far as he knew, to keep information on a need to know basis, even in the army, let alone in secret organisations.
"What do you want with me?" he continued asking.
"My objective is to tame you in pursuit of greater goals within the ruins. I do not have the exact details yet."
"Have you targeted anyone else besides me?"
"After you, my next target is a young Neophyte by the name of Clarissa Hunter. She is also on the shortlist to be sent to the ruins."
