LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Isn't it time we moved? The other teams have already engaged the target...

LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:...Yes, ma'am.

NPC-Ange(12)<Position>0,25</Position>;LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Well, you're a legend at the base, even though you don't seem to take anything seriously and rely on nothing but your sheer dumb luck. +No one can deny that you are currently the most outstanding commander at Griffin.

LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:So why are we still not attacking, Commander? +I am not equipped with an advanced command module, but based on what you've taught me... +If our team had stormed the target's right flank 15 minutes ago... the mission could have been completed by now.
NPC-Ange(10)<Speaker>Ange</Speaker><Position>0,25</Position>||:LAMG, what is the purpose of Dolls?

LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Uh... To complete missions?
NPC-Ange(10)<Speaker>Ange</Speaker><Position>0,25</Position>||:That's right. +But there's no end to missions.
()||:Ange finally sits up on her hammock. She props herself up on one arm and yawns lazily.
NPC-Ange(10)<Speaker>Ange</Speaker><Position>0,25</Position>||:The more challenging training exercises you complete, the more you improve in your skills. +But it doesn't work like that with missions. Completing challenging missions will only get you more challenging missions and in greater quantities.
NPC-Ange(10)<Position>0,25</Position>;LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:That makes no sense. Don't we get bigger rewards for completing more challenging missions?

()||:LAMG is keenly aware that this is a subject that Ange has never taken the initiative to bring up, and this may be an important opportunity to understand her better. +She wants to ask more questions, but Ange interrupts her by raising a hand. +She looks into the distance at the slowly rising smoke and finally gives the order to attack.
NPC-Ange(10)<Speaker>Ange</Speaker><Position>0,25</Position>||:Send them out. Coordinate with the teams fighting on the flanks and attack the target from behind.
LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Yes, Commander!
()||:LAMG jumps out of the bush with excitement, and then she stops abruptly.
NPC-Ange(12)<Speaker>Ange</Speaker><Position>0,25</Position>||:What's the problem?
LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Commander, can we continue the conversation when I come back?

LAMG(0)<Speaker>LAMG</Speaker><Position>0,100</Position>||:Yes, ma'am!
()||<SE1>AVG_Team_Running</SE1><BGM>BGM_Empty</BGM>:LAMG and her teammates disappear into the dense woods and join in on the cacophony of gunfire in the distance. +Ange rolls out of her hammock and steps onto the soft soil covered in a thick layer of fallen leaves with bare feet. +After having a good stretch, she finally accepts the comms request that has been pending for a while.
