A lone, dark trail that connects the town of Nox to it's harbor. Bandits tend to prey on passers by, so it is wise to travel in an armed group. Travel alone at your own risk. |

[Enter V in the trail, looking as if he had just ran here. Though still well composed]
Once V had gotten to the trail he began looking around. Not just for the Queen, but bandits and others of the sort. He had heard rumors of this place and they were far from pleasant. Never the less, his glorious queen had asked him here so he would appear. He continued down the path cautiously, scanning the environment for any possible traps.

A lone figure sat atop a nearby treebranch, relatively casually considering the hostile nature of their environment. Queen Luna had been waiting for some time, even mistaking the odd bandit or two for her agent. They would draw their swords and threaten Luna, though she always enjoyed seeing the aggressive expressions turn into pure terror once it sinks in who they were trying to rob. It was entertaining enough, though the Alicorn was growing weary. Looking down, she spots another line figure; this must be her agent. The bandits usually travelled in groups of three or more, never alone. She calls out to him.
"Be you a bandit, or a mere traveller?"

"Of the two? I would suppose I am a mere traveller, though I have this nifty scroll"
V starts to pull out slowly, while carefully scanning the tree in search for the voice. Having spotted the figure he grinned.

Luna grins at this, taking a bite out of an apple she had recently picked. Jumping down from the tall tree, she lands gracefully, despite falling from a high spot.
"Wonderful, I am glad you could make it agent Staccato. "

"Anything for my glorious night mother and Queen" V Bows in respect, then stands up straight.
"What did you summon me here for my Queen?"

The Lunar Queen smiles at this, her mystical hair blending and flowing perfectly with the night sky. She very much enjoyed it when her subject showed her this type of respect. The cold air around them didn't seem to bother Luna in the slightest, as her icy blue stare shoots down at V.
"Rise, we have little time for pleasantries. " she dismisses his gesture, despite having approved of it initially.
"Though before we get started, I must warn you of something. "

He raised his eyebrow at this before speaking up, his ruby red eye raising to meet hers.
"Of course, though none of my jobs or tasks come without risk my queen." He said with a tone of assurance in his voice.

"Of course the mission will be perilous.... Though I was referring to the dangers of speaking to me at the moment..."
She looks to the side; the Queen was clearly holding something back.
"This mission is on a need to know basis. Not even my most trusted generals know of this plan. It is a dangerous mission, and I will give you one chance to walk away before I explain the details. If you choose to stay and listen, and then decide that you do not wish to take part in the mission... I will have no choice but to dispose of you. "
She chuckles awkwardly.

V doesn't seemed phased by the death threat if he choose not to comply, instead it served to intrigue him.
"I will gladly take part of any mission for you my queen, though if I may ask. What is the danger in speaking to you right now?"

"Well, the danger is that I must slay you if you get cold feet.." Her awkward chuckle slowly fades, as a few moments pass. Her eyes meet up with his once again.
"But you look like a brave young man, I'm sure it will not come down to that. "

"Well, I will obviously take the mission. I signed on for these kind of things my queen" He smirked.

She simply returns his smirk with a mischieveous grin of her own.
"Very well, let us get to it then."
She turns to the left, before starting to pace slightly. Luna had always felt the need to pace whilst explaining things.
"One week ago, the Solar Captain in charge of camp Monfort, Captain Marcus, was killed in a 'freak rock slide' caused by yours truly. Naturally, the Solar Empire is sending his replacement, Captain Helmsut; that is, until my scouts captured the good captain. "
She turns back to V.
"From this point forth, you are the Solar Captain Helmsut. You will arrive at Camp Monfort on schedule, and take charge of the garrison. In exactly two weeks time, my forces will attack the camp; it is up to you to make sure that the defences are at their weakest before that attack begins. Understood?"

V watches his Queen pace back in fourth explaining the the details of his mission. Though being on the side of the Solar Empire even to bring them down from within made him mentally groan.
"I understand my Queen, I have just the idea for such a thing. If you'd like I could make sure they all fell ill shortly before you and your forces arrive."

Luna waves her hand dismissively, taking another bite of her apple. Chewing the fruit and swallowing, she addresses the spy once more.
"Yes, yes, the I will leave the methods open to you. Just make sure that when my troops attack, we have the clear advantage... One more thing..."
She pauses for a moment.
"Nobody except for myself will know that you are a Lunar agent... That means it will be up to you to escape. My soldiers will try and kill you if they spot you."
