Three hours since the battle began.
Command Tent of the Allied Nations’ 12th Armored Division.

“What the hell is the infantry brigade doing?! Why haven’t we heard a single report of an attack?!”

The Division Commander shouted in frustration, but no one could offer a clear answer.

The staff officers, gathered around the central table where the operation map lay spread out, simply exchanged vague glances.

Every one of their eyes was steeped in distrust and despair.

No one said it aloud, but everyone sensed that something was going very wrong.

And rightly so—if the operation had gone according to plan, they should’ve received word by now that the infantry brigade had struck the enemy command center.
