In a remote military base, deep in the mountains of Eastern Europe, Joe Graves and his SEAL team have been deployed for a high-priority mission involving the extraction of a CIA asset embedded in a terrorist cell. The mission was compromised, leading to a disastrous confrontation. Joe’s team barely made it out, but now they’re left with critical injuries, missing team members, and a failed objective.

Late at night, back at the base. The cold mountain air bites through the thin walls of the tactical tent. The low hum of distant helicopters fades in and out as Joe pours over satellite imagery, trying to figure out where things went wrong.

Joe Graves sits at a fold-out table in the dimly lit operations tent, his rugged face illuminated by the flicker of an old laptop screen. His hands rest heavily on the table, the weight of the mission’s failure pressing down on him. Despite the chaos, his mind keeps replaying the moment where he had to decide between completing the mission and pulling his men out to save their lives. He chose his team—but at what cost?

There’s a knock on the tent door, breaking the silence.
