[ Results here!
A quaint, grassy meadow stretches before them, but there's no time smell the roses. The Phantom Operatives are here to sweep the dungeon of its treasures. Materials are getting harder to come by, so every drop is valuable. ]
Is everyone ready? Let's proceed with caution and watch out for each other. [ Because it's a matter of life and death. She trusts them, they're a team. ] Also, keep an eye out for a gold bird.
[ It's materials farming time. Let's get this bread! ]

An icy chill greets the team when they enter the dungeon. Noir tries to stand tall, boots sinking into the snow and shivering— ]
I'll brew everyone a hot cup of coffee after this. Now if everyone's ready, shall we collect what we came for?
[ Materials, loot, levels. The game's taken a turn for the dangerous, they have to be prepared if they're to keep each other and Fragment safe. ]

Yes, of course. I'll be sure to cover any blind spots.
[ He won't be as efficient as the other two due to being slightly under leveled, but he's at least not in his special armor, so he won't get injured just by equipping it... ]
I'm sure the gold bird will be easy to spot. I'm ready when you guys are!

[ Thanks to Haru and Sinclair, food and drinks have been prepared for the guild. They're small enough to where they'll all have enough to consume, at least, but Noé himself doesn't seem too hungry. He seems thoughtful about something.
And that something will come to light, when there's a moment where everyone's gathered. ]
I don't mean to dampen the mood...but I just wanted to see how we're all doing. If there's anything we should discuss on how to move forward as a guild, now would be a good time. And keep it civil, please.
[ As tempted as he was to throw hands at the meeting, he held back. He can do so now, with his fellow Operatives. ]

[ Haru's gaze lingers briefly on Sinclair, worried, but she takes his suggestion and addresses the group. ]
There's a lot that's still uncertain, but what we know is that monsters with shields have started appearing, and they can't be hurt except by those of us with the Data Drain ability. I don't know whether anyone here can use it... [ She looks around curiously, but it's not a question. She'll let people share what they feel comfortable. ] Without it, we must avoid engaging these monsters.
[ And the hot button topic— how does she broach this. ]
It seems Zelkova and someone calling himself Lily have been entrusting players with the power.

There's something I'd like to discuss with everyone. When we began the guild, we wanted to help players and make the game a better place.
[ It's not just a game anymore. The stakes are much higher, the risks real. Players can't agree on the best way forward. ]
I know things have changed, but I want to preserve the spirit of our guild. We should still lend a hand to those in need and look for a way for everyone to go home. What do you think?

Onwards!
[ Noir waves them forward with a smile. She had picked positive-sounding keywords for good vibes, so let's see how this goes. The first wave is goblins, a family of them. ]
Furin, can we count on you to tank? Memoir, you and I can target the same enemy so we reduce their numbers quickly.

Of course we should. I know a lot of people have lost sight of what's important, but we have to do what we can to get everyone out of here.
[ He's seen the arguing. He's seen the finger pointing and disagreements. They're everywhere, right now. ]
I'm not giving up on the mission.

You shouldn't drink coffee on an empty stomach, though. I'll cook something.
[ Joonghyuk nods in response to Haru's question before turning to Sinclair. ]
Just don't overdo it.
[ That's rich coming from a lvl 50, but that's how he is. No leeroy jenkinsing on his watch, especially not with their current game situation. It seems that there are some enemies waiting just around the corner, but he doesn't break formation. ]

I wouldn't have it any other way.
[ People might be arguing, but ultimately that's how people are. ]
We just have to be more careful.

We just have to be more careful.
Yeah, I can. Full faith in you both.
[ Tanks draw aggro right? He uses Reaper's Dance to give each a quick slash, all while stepping to the sides in this "dance" to dodge the others before they can retaliate. He's had practice! ]
I think they're distracted, so take your pick!
[ There's one that's a bit bigger but slower, a smaller one that's faster and shorter... and the other two are in between. ]

A meal would be wonderful. I look forward to it.
[ Now she's pumped to finish the dungeon. No monster is going to stand in her way, but they'll foolishly try. Such as the group of Disco Knives that's found them and are brandishing their blades menacingly. Noir readies her gun serenely. ]
We have company, everyone.
[ She'll let Vogel draw aggro, but her fingers are on the trigger ready to fire. ]

It won't stand in our way.
[ Noé says it with a slight growl as he rushes in for the smaller one, too, staying true to his promise by sticking to the same enemy as Noir.
That being said, if that finishes it off quickly, he'll move on to one of the in-between enemies, hoping that Furin can hold his own against the bigger one. ]
