We must strike now, before Silver Spear is complete.” - Wolff “It could accelerate disruptive weather patterns, render populated biomes unlivable, or trigger another blackout.” - Wolff “In our hands, it is the miracle cure. In the hands of our enemy, it is a weapon of mass destruction.” - Wolff <br> ### Description DATE: MARCH 3, 2043 TO: CIA DIR. M. RENOIT FROM: [[Codex/Profiles/Noah Wolff|N. WOLFF]] RE: OPERATION: WAR MACHINE – APPROVAL REQUEST On February 27 at 1700, [[Codex/Profiles/Exodus|MFS-04 Exodus]] successfully deciphered the coordinates for the Shearwater package: a remote [[Codex/Organizations/Nordvik|Nordvik]] factory in [[Codex/Battlefields/Spearhead|Lappland, Sweden]]. We believe [[Codex/Profiles/Loyiso "Oz" Okusanya|"Oz"]] is using Nordvik to develop critical components for his weapon, codenamed Project: SILVER SPEAR. I’ve also confirmed two reports: 1) [[Dr. Gedeon Voros|Dr. Voros]], lead scientist on Operation: STEADFAST REFUGE, has betrayed us and is overseeing Project: SILVER SPEAR. 2) With the assistance of [[Codex/Organizations/The Dark Market|the Dark Market]], “Oz” has taken control of the Shearwater-2 satellite. STEADFAST REFUGE is our response to Earth’s unprecedented environmental disasters: a geoengineering machine capable of manipulating environmental conditions, alleviating the threats of superstorms and climate change, as well as rehabilitating ecosystems rendered uninhabitable by their effects. In our hands, it is the miracle cure. In the hands of our enemy, it is a weapon of mass destruction. It could accelerate disruptive weather patterns, render populated biomes unlivable, or trigger another blackout. This is what “Oz” has been planning since [[Hourglass|Doha]]. We must strike now, before SILVER SPEAR is complete. I am requesting immediate approval for Operation: WAR MACHINE. Exodus is standing by. The vessel’s combat ready – all civilians, including families and children, deboarded at the last port (including, thankfully, that irritating journalist). The fireteam’s recon identified two high value targets on site: Voros and [[Codex/Specialists/Rasheed Zain|Rasheed Zain]], a commander in Oz’s insurgency. With your approval, Exodus will execute the S&D operation, infiltrating the facility and destroying the WMD. With reports of an Eastern offensive mobilizing around the facility, this should be our top priority. SOO Wolff – Non-Patriated Counter Terrorism Unit
