Today has been a busy day for the military organization known as "Archetype", the clan organization that recently declared war upon the President of Tepesz Corp, Valentia "Midia" Tepesz.
At my arrival to their secluded headquarters (I am under contract to keep the location secret), I immediately noticed the massive amount of personnel diverted to what looked like the receiving department of the bunkers, where young, cleanshaven soldiers of Archetype were busy moving pallet after pallet of what looked to be ammunition, medical supplies, rations, and other various wartime needs into the bunkers.
When asked what this restocking was for, an Archetype soldier simply stated, "It's war time."
Brendan Nygaard was a bit more vocal on the subject.
"It's obvious that Midia's forces are being cowardly. Her spiking of the supression gas should show everyone what lengths she will go to to scare the populace. She sends children to assassinate people and then commit suicide. She sends snipers to intimidate the populace. Soon... she may just send a force of some genetic freakshows that we might have to fight. She's done it before and I guarantee she will do it again. We're just staying prepared."
When asked about the ongoing effort against Tepesz Corp, Brendan said, "Just because Archetype has not shed blood yet does not mean we are losing, not by a long shot."
When asked what the conditions of his surrender might be, if any, Brendan said, "We do not surrender. We will not surrender until every last one of us ceases to exist. We -will- bring Midia to justice. We will all sacrifice our lives for this cause, for Rubi-Ka.
This is a case of Freedom or Fire. If we can't be free from Midia's terrorism, we will burn fighting it."
Several Archetype soldiers cheered following his statement.
When asked of his opinion of the recent attack upon the Dust Brigade Camp, Brendan stated, "I don't know the specifics on what compelled the organizations involved to strike the Dust Brigade. I, personally, would not have done it. I believe it was a ploy and only furthered to increase the terror Midia can inflict upon the populace. What better way than to coerce the citizens of Borealis into attacking an organization that she wants gone as well? It's easy... it's called divide and conquer. She'll smash what is left of their conflict after the organizations involved get done shooting it out with the Dust Brigade."
I asked Brendan if he was sympathetic to the Dust Brigade.
"I won't say that I support them, but I also won't say that I don't. Until Midia stirred up this whole mess, they stuck to their business and we stuck to ours. I believe that the Dust Brigade and Archetype have a common goal... get Midia. They want her for masquerading as them, we want her because she terrorizes Rubi-Kans."

When asked if he would like to meet with the leaders of the Dust Brigade, he stated:
"I would meet with the Dust Brigade, yes. I would explain to them the situation and hope they would understand. Hopefully with an explanation they can put their differences behind them and we can all focus on the real problem - the Tepesz Corporation and the evil woman who owns and directs it."

As I was escorted out, I was told of the "Conditions for Surrender" that the upper council had defined for Valentia "Midia" Tepesz for end to this conflict:

1) Surrender unconditionally and peacefully to Archetype, whereas a surrender armistice will be signed.
2) Valentia "Midia" Tepesz and her Administrative Staff will be held in a detainment cell, without harm, and brought before a trial of Omni-Tek, Neutral, and Clan members to be tried for war crimes.
3) If found guilty, she and her staff will serve out their sentences.
