With the last shred of his health, he told me that he was one of the commandos of the Phobia syndicate. Obviously, I was the one going around all the Advocate faction clans and trying to get them to the table. This commando wanted to take me hostage and force me to sabotage the negotiations between Wind Clan and Major Idovelli. It was not going to happen. In theory, this would prevent the military from trying anything like this again in their southern region. It might also cause them to act even more aggressively in response going further. I looked at the PEA units. The cyborgs liked to infiltrate everything they could get their feet in the door of. Getting into Phobia was not a big shock. I looked at them. "I guess that this is Conqueror territory. Obviously you'd all want me out of the picture if it meant Advocates would lose any chance of allying with the military." I said boldly. One of them raised their rifle and shot the commando in the head, killing him. "This is Toxic Clan territory. The Wind Clan is going to give us all the money and weapons your clan gave them if they want you." he said.
That was such a stupid plan, I could only laugh. All of them looked at me as if I was the one that was crazy. It was clear they wanted to know what was so funny. "You did all of this just for me to make you guys my personal enemy. I'm going to walk right out of here, and then I'm going to find your shitty clan building. Once I do, it's over for you." I said. They all went hostile to me, but it did not matter. I casted spells and used my guns. I still had the nice shotgun that used acid pellets. I would have to give my regards to Void Clan at some point. It was a nice weapon. When there was only one left, I grabbed him and said "It's too late to be sorry now. Toxic Clan is finished and it's all your fault." I let the indignation set in before blowing his head off. It was time to go to Wind Clan. Actually helping my allies was more important than hunting people down for revenge. Getting back at them could always wait. It was not like they were going anywhere. I had to look at the map for a bit to reorient myself for the journey. A long detour could, at times, lead to a nice quest chain. I liked that about FOG a lot.
Continuing the journey was not that hard when I knew which direction to go. I did not get interrupted by anymore goons from hostile syndicates or Toxic Clan. When I had finally made it to Wind Clan territory, it was late in the evening. I wanted to take a break. I also had never been to their clan building before. It would only be tiring and annoying to try to ask PEP units that did not know me about it. One, outing them could put them in danger. Two, to be completely honest, I was not asked for. Me and my help might not be wanted. Water Clan asked for me. Radiation Clan accepted because, I had already made a deal with the leading major of the quadrant. It only made sense to ask for some back up from me. Other than knowing that the Major was a sex pest, I knew nothing of the actual situation here in the southern quadrant. With that being the case, I needed to play this by ear and find my way to help them. I saw a large line outside of what looked like a club. Honestly, I had nothing better to do. I got on the back of the line and waited my turn. I paid their entrance fee and stepped in.
