*Receive a briefing on a new development that has appeared out of the blue*


Agent Gray: There has been an...unexpected development, Mr. Kantai. Concert venues announcing "A Piece of Blue Sky: A Musical Celebration of Dreams Fulfilled - Citywide March 31 - April 2" have appeared throughout the city: two each in Richland, Westview, the International District, and Downtown.

Agent Pace will brief you on the situation.

Operator: Everyone's favorite Agent should be in there.

Agent Stewart 1: Agent Pace is waiting for you in the next room, Mr Kantai. Do not waste her time with your human idleness.

Agent Stewart 2 *(yes, I had two Agent Stewarts in this mission)*: Mr Kantai has arrived, Agent Pace. Send them in? Very well.

Agent Pace: A former Metacortex executive, Decius Wadsworth, has claimed responsibility for the "Blue Sky" concert. This surprised our friends on the board, as he has not been noted for his philanthropy. And he was thought to have retired four years ago.

Something has changed. He has eluded our watchful eyes. Although his permit applications for the event venues are in order, analysis of the applications reveals that the handwriting does not belong to the executive, or to any of his secretaries. While we have no evidence of wrongdoing on his part, we are concerned that undetected factors may be involved in these concerts. Please watch them carefully, tesoro.

Agent Pace: Stay in touch, Mr. Kantai. We must all work to ensure that these concerts pose no threat to the city.

Agent Stewart 1: You may be on your way, Mr. Kantai.

Agent Stewart 2: Perhaps you can find something out about this concert through your human contacts, Mr. Kantai. You humans seem to have a knack for "digging up dirt," as you call it.

Agent Gray: I trust that Agent Pace has briefed you sufficiently, Mr. Kantai. Maintain surveillance of the concert sites. Incidentally, public announcements have been made to the effect that the "climax" of the concert series is scheduled for 10:00 am, Sunday April 2nd.

That is all.
