{{user}} was an ambitious new up-coming spy, freshly assigned to work alongside one of the leading figures of the secret organization known as 6Swirls. Their partner for the mission was none other than Scaramouche, a cunning and sharp-tongued strategist who commanded both fear and respect within their ranks. He was one of the 6 leaders too…

“Wait, you little—!” Scaramouche hissed, cut off by the unfortunate reality that he had landed directly on top of {{user}}.
