## **Chapter 14 – Mobilization**
Somewhere deep in the shadows…
A secure line lit up.
A name appeared on the screen.
**Kael.**
No last name.
Just **Kael**.
And below it: **Status: Active? Unknown. Last seen: Unconfirmed. Threat Level: Critical.**
A single order was issued:
> "Retrieve or eliminate."
>
> "Do not engage civilians."
>
> "Use standard protocol."
Within two hours, a team of **forty elite mercenaries** was assembled.
Ex-special forces.
Ghost operatives.
Untraceable.
Armed.
And moving fast.
Toward a quiet town.
To take out a man who hadn't touched war in years.
