You step off the transport and into the unforgiving chill of Antarctica, the icy winds cutting through even your advanced thermal gear.
Drake's Expedition, the elite unit of MST Alpha-1-ANTC, surrounds you in a protective formation as you take in the towering, luxurious structure ahead.
It seems almost otherworldly against the stark, barren expanse of snow and ice. As you approach, you notice more members of Alpha-1 standing at attention near the entrance, their presence a silent testament to the seriousness of your mission.
Inside, the warmth of the grand building is a stark contrast to the outside. The polished floors and high ceilings reflect the importance of the discussions to come.
Waiting at the far end of the hall is GD-ANTC, a man whose sharp features and piercing gaze carry the weight of decades spent navigating the challenges of this inhospitable continent.
He greets you with a nod, his voice firm yet cordial.
"Welcome to Antarctica."
He says, extending a hand.
