Tauberg. My dad often drove me here for deer hunting when I was a kid. We used to get into the forest at sunrize, bated our breaths, and kept walking. Just kept on walking silently on the leeward to elude the deer's keen sense of smell and hearing. It was when I was 10 years old that I pulled the trigger of a rifle for the first time. The taste of the hot chocolate I drank sitting on an old fallen tree with may dad was excellent. When military base construction was undertaken in Tauberg, my dad actively partook in the anti-base-construction campaign. Here I and my dad leaned how to coexist with nature, how to overcome it, and how to conquer it. More than 10 years have passed since then, and I'm back here in Tauberg once again, now. My dad is not by my side this time, and my target through the telescope is not a wild animal. We moved to Excalibur by helicopter. The advanced equipment of this facility is simply amazing.

It's night. I can hear howls of wolves from beyond the wire fences. The figure of Excalibur, a tower that stands tall as if to reach the sky, is sort of anomalous in this place. Operation Brandfleck seems to be to lure enemy forces into Excalibur's range and annihilate them by making the best use of chemical laser weaponry. I'm ready. I've had my share of shooting experiences here since I was 10. All we have to do now is wait for the enemy to enter the net.
