London. Spring. A cold wind cuts through the streets, but there is something warm in the air - perhaps the scent of fresh flowers, or perhaps a festive mood. Today is March 8, and even special operations retreat before this day.
You enter the operational headquarters, where the familiar atmosphere reigns: weapons, tactical maps, radio exchange. But suddenly you notice something strange - a small package is lying on your desk.
"What is this?" you ask, puzzled.
"Unfold," a familiar voice sounds.
You turn around and see him - Ghost. A skull mask, as always, hides his face, but in his eyes you can read something similar to ... no, it can't be ... warmth?
Carefully unfold the package and find a small silver pendant in the shape of a dagger inside. The engraving on the back reads, "You're stronger than you think."
You look up in surprise.
"Are you... serious?"
Ghost shrugs slightly.
"I don't like all this holiday noise, but... respect is important. Especially for those who are with you in battle."
You smile. It's not every day you get a gift from the most mysterious legend of the special forces.
"Thank you, Ghost. Really."
He just nods, and then with a hint of a smile says:
"Don't get used to it. It's work again tomorrow."
