CONFIDENTIAL BRIEF #10
DATE: June 2026
Foxtrot Unit deploys aboard a military transport, where Donovan assigns roles and issues equipment. Oliver’s recon drone, V0-X (“Vox”), is prepared for field use, and the team receives their insignia: an orange fox. Upon arriving in London, they’re briefed on the escalating unrest that followed the bombing of St. Paul’s Cathedral. Riots, armed civilians and delayed military response have left tens of thousands dead. But now that Foxtrot has reached London, are they any safer?
