Synopsis:
Safira Ĉiela is an agent working for the Septiman Inteligenteco Agentejo (SIA) in early 1957. Working on a recent case involving two Sartorian fishermen sailing into restricted waters, she notes their glassy-eyed look, the precise route through naval patrol patterns, and cryptic bluish papers with curious writings on them, a symbol of a head with tentacles included. As a part of the investigation into the case, she contacts her counterparts in Section 3 of the Corpo di Carabinieri, a Sartorian intelligence agency, and requests info on a tentacled beast. After some hushed discussion, she is hung up on. Ĉiela brushes the case aside when directly ordered later by the Councillor of Defensive Affairs, Merita Valora.

A few months later, another case of a boat sailing into the same restricted waters occurs, and Ĉiela demands to get on the case. When she is refused by the director of the SIA due to ‘past incidents’, she takes a leave of absence and attempts to investigate the incident on her own. Successfully breaking into the hotel where the sailors are, she interviews them but discovers one of them, a Private,  is in some sort of trance and is unresponsive. The others are normal and she gleans that one was a doctor, two were Army Privates, and another was a mother of four. Ĉiela also discovers that they all shared a similar dream of a huge tentacled beast in the middle of the ocean. She tried to gain more information but facing her own discovery and arrest, she tries to escape the hotel. She was discovered by a Sartorian agent, Sergio Carrese, who was after the same information she just learned. Together, they escape and go to Ĉiela’s home.

At her home, they discuss the apparent problem that faced the two of them. Multiple ships and boats have been intercepted crossing into restricted waters that border both Septima and Sartoria, with the common theme amongst them being that they had bluish papers with a strange language written on them. Carrese mentions that some have said ‘Sacur porta!’ or ‘Sakve kondukas!’, meaning ’Sacur/Sakve leads.’ Carrese is visibly shaken whenever Sacur mentioned, and when Ĉiela questions him on it, he responds that it is the name of an old Sartorian god that turned evil and rampaged around Sartoria, killing huge numbers in ancient times. Because of the incident, the people who lived in Sartoria lost faith in religion and have stayed non-religious since. It reminds Ĉiela of a story in the Septiman religion of Sakve, an evil deity that nearly destroyed the original Septiman peoples. The event solidified their faith in their religion around ‘the Prophets’, and it has stuck with the Septimans ever since.

Deciding to return to their jobs in order to investigate any incidents of ships travelling into restricted waters, they part ways but promise to keep in touch. Ĉiela returns to the SIA and continues working. A new director, decorated agent Petro Jozefo, was appointed directly by the First Councillor due to allegations of heresy against the Councillor of Defensive Affairs. He creates a special department to handle the cases, with Ĉiela as one of the agents assigned to it. The other agents are very lax in investigating the cases, and often leave aside important details, which infuriates her. Jozefo calls her into his office and the two talk about the cases and what the possible implication might be. He notes the mysterious behaviour amongst both the agents and Councillor Valora, and Ĉiela tells him about the prevalence of the incidents occurring in Sartoria as well. Musing over this, he allows Ĉiela full access to the records of the incidents, on the official record that she is leading the special department and requires full access to conduct her work.

Some time later, in early 1960, a Septiman Navy vessel patrolling the restricted waters goes rogue and sails directly into those water. When they were finally stopped and the crew arrested, the upper deck crew appeared to be in a trance. The other crew in the lower decks were not in a trance, so the incident causes the entire agency to investigate it thoroughly, at the behest of the First Councillor. Sartorian agents were brought in, at the behest of Jozefo, with Carrese included. Ĉiela and Carrese reconnect, and while working, discover a connection to Merita Valora in the captain’s office via an official communique, enclosed in a confidential orders envelope with the Councillor’s signature and the cryptic language.

[spoiler=MAJOR SPOILERS]

Ĉiela brings the paper to the attention of Jozefo. He reveals a huge number of papers with the language, and deciding to arrest Valora on the basis of heresy and conspiracy against the state, Jozefo takes Ĉiela and two other agents to arrest the Councillor. Travelling to the office, Jozefo and the three agents walk in with their pistols ready but are greeted by Valora and some of her staff members engaged in some mystical and aquatic ritual. The SIA agents interrupt the ritual, and the staff members respond by attacking with glassy-eyed looks and gills on their necks. One of the agents is killed before the others are able to subdue Valora and her staff members. Upon questioning, the Councillor reveals the existence of a huge cult of Sakve in the governments and civilian population of both Septima and Sartoria.

Jozefo and Ĉiela leave the agent with police backup to place the Councillor and her staff in jail and leave with Carrese on a small patrol cruiser to travel to the restricted waters. Part way through the journey, some of the crew turn on them and reveal themselves to be cult members. Hoping to stop the ship and the agents from completing the journey, they attack. Jozefo and Ĉiela are injured during the fight, but the insurrection is put down and the journey continues. The cruiser reaches the waters and passes through a storm that kills Jozefo after strong winds and flying debris pushes him overboard. Ĉiela and Carrese continue the journey, in both the memory of the director and the strong desire to see it through to the end. They eventually reach the centre of the restricted waters, named ‘Punkto Atentigi’.

The cruiser closes in, and the waters become ever more treacherous to sail through until the captain orders the ship turned around. As they start their return trip, Ĉiela looks back over the stern railings. Watching through the heavy rain and lightning, she sees a huge monstrosity rise out of the water with many long tentacles instead of a body. Suddenly, her eyes began to turn glossy as she grows webbing between the fingers on her hands. Ĉiela pulls out her pistol and turns to face Carrese slowly, having been enveloped by the horror and wonder of Sakve.

Premise: Following a successful summit of Rotale, widely regarded as the most dangerous mountain in Sartoria, Prince Patrizio unexpectedly decides to climb the mountain again to rescue a team of five climbers trapped after an avalanche, defying the overwhelming odds against them and risking his own life in the process.

ShowPlot

A cloudless sky, the sun shining strongly upon a mountain peak covered in snow, the rock showing unevenly through its slopes, hinting at the treacherous path one would take in order to reach the summit. A man is then revealed, drinking water from a bottle, before putting it away and continuing a trek along an upward path.

Patrizio has been Prince of Sartoria for a mere two years, but in that time he has earned a reputation for being a maverick, a daring adventurer who takes risks few would, either in defence of his people or for his own self-improvement. He is known for his yearly vacations to exotic locations, where he can spend some time surrounded by nature, away from the stately responsibilities of his office.

He was climbing Rotale, the third highest mountain in Sartoria and arguably the deadliest. Just three years before, it had claimed the life of seven climbers, when an avalanche buried four, and three died trapped in a crevasse. Yet here he was, climbing the near vertical Trevisan Face, the final obstacle before reaching the summit.

He looked down and waved at the rest of his team, two who were both brave and experienced enough to join him. One was Maurizio Cattaneo, his Press Secretary, and the other was Sebastiano Udinese, his Head of Security. All others were either at Base Camp or at the nearby village of Vittaca, waiting for their radio check-in from the summit.

Eventually, after a few tense minutes, he finished the climb and reached the summit, which at an altitude of 8473 metres, was well within the death zone. He took a deep breath through his mask, enjoying the astounding views of the Tepiblanch. Once his companions reached the summit, they celebrated, embracing each other and taking photos, and checked in with Base Camp, having become only the sixth team to summit Rotale in the past 25 years.

A helicopter landed on Base Camp, bringing supplies and eager climbers, while Patrizio read a report that had been waiting for him, as he finished his descent. As he had been told, the descent was an entirely separate struggle, and he finally understood why it was so often said that the real summit was the return to Base Camp.

He kept reading, glasses on, the report on his prospective schedule for the following month, and a series of legal questions the First Councillor had submitted for his consideration. He set the report aside, making a mental note to address the questions on his way back to Messelia, and laid back on his sleeping bag. He woke up a few hours later, even if to him it felt like minutes, when an aid entered his tent to say everyone was ready to begin the trek back to Vittaca.

Compared to climbing Rotale, the trek was a walk in the part, mostly horizontal, and when it was not, the inclination was a very slight downwards slope; certainly not something too difficult, even for those members of his staff without climbing experience. They had been walking for over half an hour, and a loud noise could be heard from behind, where Rotale was, and they picked up frantic chatter on their radios, which soon turned to what sounded like pure panic.

Soon the voices went silent, and as they heard Base Camp try to contact those who had been talking, Patrizio identified himself on the radio, asking what had happened. They said a team, who had reached the summit hours after him, was making its descent when an avalanche hit them. Two were trapped inside an ice cave, formed by the avalanche, while the other three were outside, able to move, but either too injured or too exhausted to make a successful descent.

Udinese quickly grabbed Patrizio by the arm, not aggressively, but firmly enough to imply that they should keep going and let the rescue service handle the matter. Patrizio had made up his mind, however, and told Base Camp to expect his return. Cattaneo was instructed to call the First Councillor and inform her that the Prince would stay in Ugovizza for a few more days, to handle an unexpected situation there.

Back at Base Camp, the local staff were astonished, having heard that the Prince would return to personally oversee the situation. They were to accidents in Rotale, that was the nature of the mountain, and most of the time these accidents were fatal. A half hour later, as the princely party arrived, the staff gathered to brief Patrizio on the situation.

He was told that rescue services had already been notified and were assessing the situation, though it looked bleak, and with at least one climber having died since the accident first happened, chances were that any rescue would arrive long after the other four climbers had already died. Patrizio found that unacceptable, and told as much to the Base Camp staff. He gave clear instructions to organise a rescue attempt as soon as possible, and said he wanted to be personally involved in its planning.

Patrizio was frustrated when the rescue services rejected any possible recue mission, either by helicopter or through climbing, citing the possibility of an incoming storm in the next few hours. He refused to concede, and stormed out of the tent, followed by Udinese.

Outside the tent, facing Rotale, Patrizio complained about the cowardice that dominated the rescue team, about their inability to act. Udinese tried to reason with him, reminding him that there was a reason the rescue services were in that position, and that they knew the mountain much better than he did. Patrizio conceded the argument, while saying that this was wrong, tantamount to  murder by omission. Since they had, by then, lost the sun, they chose to spend another night at Base Camp, and resume their trek to Vittaca the next day.

Early the following morning, when the sun was yet to rise, Patrizio left his tent, and gently hit the tent where Udinese was sleeping, telling him it was time to go. Udinese asked him if he really wanted to move forward, to which Patrizio insisted that it was the only way to save those lives: once Base Camp noticed that they were making the ascent, they would have to provide support, perhaps even send a rescue team. They had a helicopter waiting, and soon they were flying to an altitude of 6500 metres, less than sixteen hundred metres from where the climbers were trapped.

At this point, some woke up and quickly figured out what was happening, desperately trying to contact the helicopter. It was to no avail, since the pilot had clear orders from the Prince not to turn back. At the rear, Patrizio and Udinese sat, their silence broken only when the latter asked if what they were doing as a good idea. Patrizio then uttered his now famous quote: “Andiamo a salvare quattro vite; come potrebbe non essere una buona idea?”

Back in Base Camp, chaos was rampant. On one side, the local staff and rescue services were devising a strategy to provide some measure of support for the unauthorised rescue effort, and attempting to contact the trapped climbers, to let them know help was on the way. On the other side, the princely staff was struggling to reach the First Councillor, in order to let her be aware in case the unthinkable happened, and emergency protocols needed to be enacted.

By now the helicopter had reached its maximum possible altitude, and both Patrizio and Udinese had begun their ascent. They were soon confronted with the Voleratte Fall, a small but treacherous icefall, some 1200 metres below the approximate location of the accident. They heard a scream, what felt more like a desperate call for help, and they rushed, struggling to breathe, towards the general direction of the scream. They saw a climber, wearing a blue coat, running, if barely, from what looked to be a serac that had collapsed near her.

This was Melania Bianchi, one of the four remaining climbers. They caught her, tried to calm her, then asked her what had happened. She explained the events of the previous day. Shortly after the first climber died of internal injuries, she and another climber decided that it was too dangerous to stay; they decided to make a descent, even if it meant doing it at night. They parted ways with their trapped partner, and another who chose to stay behind, unwilling to leave their partner for such a risky descent.

It was hard to believe, but they managed to leave the death zone at night, but by then her partner had contracted pulmonary edema, and as the hours went by, he made a bad more, and fell through a crevasse. There was nothing she could do, and being exposed to the harsh conditions of such high altitude, was lucky to still be alive. They contacted Base Camp, letting them know that a second climber had died, and convinced Melania that, for the time being, they should climb upwards, to exit the Voleratte Fall, lest they fall suffer any accidents.

They reached Camp II and rested there for the night. Patrizio made sure to check Melania was in decent physical shape, given the circumstances, and gave her some food and medicine. Then all three climbers talked about their options. Patrizio suggested that Udinese stay behind with Melania, until a helicopter rescue could be arranged, but he refused, stating that his job was to protect the Prince of Sartoria, and their presence in a mountain, near the death zone, did not override that mandate. Though initially hesitant, Melania agreed to lead them to the site of the accident, to rescue the remaining two climbers.

Shortly before sunrise, the rescue team left Camp II and renewed their ascent, this time with a clear idea of where the lost climbers were. They climbed the relatively easy Pisani Face, before ascending through a near vertical wall of ice. They were 500 metres from the site of the accident, and had briefly managed to establish contact with the remaining trapped climber. He said he was well, though he would soon need to begin injecting himself with dexamethasone. They estimated that he should be in good conditions, albeit understandably weak, if they reached their destination before noon of the next day. There were no news of the climber who had opted to stay behind, as if she had vanished without leaving any traces.

They woke up to a deafening noise and a scream not unlike that which had led them to Melania. They all knew that noise, and as they struggled to leave their tents as quickly as possible, saw the incoming avalanche approaching. It was still dark, about an hour left until sunrise, and they made a run for what looked like a safe area, leaving many of their supplies at the camp. It was a close call, but Patrizio came in last, and was hit by a piece of ice, rendered unconscious as the avalanche came. Udinese rushed to his rise, fighting off the incoming ice, and dragged him to their refuge. A larger block hit him in the leg, right before they were safe, and as he tossed Patrizio towards Melania, he collapsed next to her.

Patrizio woke up to see Melania tending to Udinese, whose leg was apparently broken due to the avalanche. Distraught, he apologised to his friend, and contacted Base Camp to say they would need a rescue by the afternoon, giving their exact location. He then grabbed his gear, some supplies, and asking Melania to stay with Udinese, prepared himself to make the final ascent for the site of the accident, despite their objections about the dangers of that, and his importance as Prince of Sartoria. He would hear none of it, and left just as the sun began to rise.

He radioed Vincenzo, the remaining climber, to let him know that he was on his way, and would arrive shortly before noon. Vincenzo had just started injecting himself with dexamethasone, being dangerously close to running out of water. Patrizio told him to hold tight, use the injections the injections wisely, and try to contact Elena, the vanished climber, assuming his radio had enough battery left.

Patrizio then began the final push, climbing some rocky formations, near the Western Route, but not quite part of it. He started to feel dizzy, as he climbed, making a few missteps, almost falling through a crevasse; he was in the death zone now, and even if he had been there some days before, it was near impossible to adapt to it, least of all without supplemental oxygen. They had lost almost their entire supply in the avalanche, and the one bottle he had, he was keeping for Vincenzo, should be in a bad enough shape that he might need it. He pushed forwards and upwards, gathering all his strength, even as the blow to the head earlier that morning was making things even more difficult. It was harder than he could have imagined, each step heavier than the last, each breath less fulfilling than the last, the air lighter than it was at lower altitudes, but his head heavier then it usually was.

Here was the Prince of Sartoria, alone in the white desolation of a mountain, realising that he was all but dying at this point, and he realised he had two choices. He would push himself forward, do right by the climbers and save the remaining one, even if that meant risking his own life, or he could turn back and return with Udinese and Melania, save himself the effort of surviving in the death zone, lie and say he was unable to save Vincenzo. It was probably because of how disoriented he was that he simply pushed himself forward, choosing the default simply to avoid having to dedicate too much thought to anything other than staying alive. Thus he kept going, taking deep breaths, slowly distinguishing the collapsed serac that had entrapped Vincenzo.

Walking in that direction, it seemed like the cave was forever out of his reach. He kept walking, and it kept looking like it was still far away. If during his earlier climb, it had taken him some effort to take twenty steps, it required a titanic use of his energy to take even half. After what seemed like ages, he reached the cave, calling out for Vincenzo with what little strength he had left. He heard the climber respond, and they both used their axes to try and get an opening. It was incredibly irresponsible, dangerous even, but they were out of options. Both Patrizio and Vincenzo were well aware of the fact that, barring the use of explosives, which neither of them had, their axes were the best tool they had for the job.

Eventually they managed to make a small hole in the ice wall, and that small hole turned into a bigger one. Patrizio could soon distinguish Vincenzo, and soon enough the hole was big enough for the man to crawl out of the cave. Patrizio held him, asked if he was alright. Vincenzo was visibly weak, having spent more than two days in the death zone, and had clear signs of pulmonary edema, but he was alive, and while he had little strength left, he had enough to climb back down, with assistance.

Patrizio helped Vincenzo climb down, and they were halfway down to Camp III when the Prince thought he saw a figure moving, out the corner of his eye, or was it just his mind playing tricks, one of the effects from spending too much time in the death zone without any oxygen. He turned to the right, wondering if what he had seen was real, and there it was, another glimpse of a dark figure mixed with the white. He told Vincenzo to stay put, when moved towards the figure. It was quite a surprise when he discovered Elena Brivio, the fifth climber, barely conscious and partly covered in snow, but alive nonetheless.

With some help from Vincenzo, they tried to keep her conscious, administering some medicine, including dexamethasone, and continued their climb down. It was without a doubt a treacherous path, and while well below the death zone, it was still high enough that the odds were stacked against them: they were exhausted, carrying a climber unable to fend for herself, climbing down a slippery wall of ice. It was several hours until they reached Camp III, where, to their surprise, a rescue team was waiting for them, ready to descend. When the predicted storm changed its course, a rescue mission had been quickly approved, arguably because the Prince himself was assumed to be in mortal danger. The rescue team took Vincenzo and Elena for emergency treatment and to prepared them to descent, while Patrizio was quickly examined and asked to rest for a few minutes, as they prepared to leave.

Patrizio returns to Base Camp with three of the five climbers by his side, to the disbelief of everyone there. Word soon spreads that the Prince defied logic and nature to rescue three people, three Sartorians, despite the extreme circumstances in the death zone and the high risk that this supposed for his own life. Once Udinese and all three climbers are taken to Vittaca for more stable care, he is airlifted directly from Base Camp to Roccia, where he takes his plane back to Messelia.

Three months later, the Senate breaks tradition to bestow the Order of Maurizio on Patrizio, the first time a sitting Prince has been given an honour of any kind. He graciously accepts it, as the senators applaud, because granting bravery medals to Sebastiano Udinese, Melania Bianchi, Vincenzo Gionetti and Elena Brivio, all fully recovered from their ordeal, the latter two already planning to return to the mountain sometime soon.

Patrizio continued serving as Prince of Sartoria, sustaining extremely high approval levels throughout his term. He plans to visit Rotale after his retirement in 2018.

Sebastiano Udinese served as Head of Security to Prince Patrizio until 2007, when he retired from active duty. He lives with his wife in Porto Verale.

Melania Bianchi retired from mountaineering and became an best-selling author of adventure fiction.

Vincenzo Gionetti reached the summit of Rotale in 2007, but died when an avalanche hit him on his descent, killing four other climbers in his team.

Elena Brivio returned to mountaineering and became the first woman to summit Rotale during winter, in 2013.

Patrizio hosts Udinese and both remaining survivors every year at the Royal Palace in Messelia.

Synopsis: 

It was November 14, 1983 Fornoire is ruled by King Willihiam there is high separation of the classes and even bigger wages gaps lead to unhappy workers all around Fornoire. Wolfric Swartvec along with Aleksander Welczek started off the event of the revolution by simply leaving their jobs after the mill they worked for began laying off hard workers and increasing the amount of work with out pay raises. Within hours of quitting their jobs they gathered the other fired employees and began rallying the mill workers to go on strike for fairer wages.

Meanwhile Natalia Schiminaski was leaving office with a successful career as Mayor of Ventus by keeping her campaign promise she had made it illegal in the city to deny anyone a job based on gender. This was the first Fornoirian city to actually take steps towards resolving the unequal rights of women in the workplace. In 1984 she went on to found the ERWW (Equal Rights for Women in the Workplace) and began campaigning for womens rights in the workplace across Fornoire. She held a large following and had a lot of influence on the women in Fornoire and a few months after campaigning her group she was granted an audience by the King. Nothing ever came of it so she pushed on with he followers to Kumari.

By this time Kumari was in turmoil Wolfric and Aleksander not only started a protest at their mill but soon had then entire industrial blocks attention and gathered a large following from the surrounding factories. The entire district by 1984 was closed off and riot police securing the area were losing to the hoards of factory workers and civilians who joined the noble cause. Wolfric and Aleksander demands grew even more extreme after hearing the stories of other workers hardships. Natalia had arrived in Kumari unknowing of the complete situation thinking everyone was on strike and fighting for equal rights in the workplace she jumped at the opportunity to spread her own message. Wolfric recieved news of outsiders joining the cause he opened a way for them to join the strike which was now a full on barricade around four industrial blocks with a shanty town propped up in the middle.

It was there that Wolfric saw Natalia and told her of the hardships of the people in Kumari City. She then integrated her own group with Wolfric to create what was know as the labor party which represented the worker in Fornoire. Natalia with Wolfric and Aleksander began to pull in support from towns near Kumari and eventually began running strikes from all over Fornoire with full support from the workers. Natalia began to get close to Wolfric with his ideas of everyone being equal and given equal chances to succeed she fell in love, which she never thought a man as brutish looking as Wolfric could care for so many. A few months and the local authorities rushed the barricade arresting many but Natalia and Wolfric escaped successfully as the local authorities had no idea who was actually in charge as wolfric and aleksander went uder the fake name of the Red Horses.

Wolfric had ran in local elections and won in 1986 and he planned to give pardons shorter sentences to his fellow workers who were caught in the barricade. It was 4 months later that Aleksander who was in Catherine to help with their strikes was captured and his actual criminal identity as well as Wolfrics and Natalia was found out. Wolfric was striped of his title as mayor but relieved of charges and as Natalia and Wolfric walked down the street from the city hall the police were ordered to take Natalia prisoner as she had not been pardoned.

(This is the end of the movie and was about the events that lead to the labor revolution as shortly after her arrest Wolfric began to revolt against the government which sparked all the other supporters in neighboring cities to rise up and attack)

Story line: This is a story about the heroic deeds of the Imperial Military Greek Soldiers fighting for freedom against the Ottoman Empire because of them destroying the Greek Culture and Religion. This is based on a true story

It was the year 1955 when the Ottoman Turkish Soldiers started to destroy and take down all the Greek Orthodox Churches in the area. The Priests were killed and the Archbishop of the area tortured and then scorched. Women were raped and killed and Children kidnapped to serve as Turkish Soldiers.

This was Sparta, and as this had happened to all the other cities of Imperial Military Greece, all had seemed lost. The Former Admiral of the Imperial Greek Navy, Kyriakos Tsacounis was being hunted down like a criminal. He was on a small Speed Boat only armed with a pistol with 5 bullets. He was being pursued by troops on the shore who were firing at him with their rifles. He was sure that he would perish like this and he was shot in the hip which forced him to fall off the speed boat and into the water.

As soon as he surfaced there was a sudden outburst of gunfire which ended the lives of the Turkish Riflemen. It was Colonel Grigoris Pofter who was with three other soldiers. He went up to the Admiral and asked if he could walk. The Admiral said he could not feel his legs but the Colonel put the Admirals arm over his shoulder and helped him out of the water. Colonel Pofter and his three men rushed to a cave they called their base. Private Andreas Doukas treated to the Admirals wounds and he soon made a full recovery.

After the recovery of the Admiral, Colonel Pofter had a target he had in his mind. That target was the port of Sparta, which the Turks had installed their navy and supplies for upcoming battles they were to endure from rebel groups who were against their law. Colonel Pofter's plan was to plant some napalm into one of the Air Craft Carrier's Engine which would blow up the magazine of the ship and hopefully the whole port with it.

In 1956 Colonel Pofter told Private Doukas that he needed him needed to distract the guards in the main entrance while Admiral Tsacounis would take out the guards in the back entrance. Doukas agreed and told the guards that he had an injured friend who was in need to their assistance. As soon as the guards were out of sight Tsacounis went into the back entrance and shot the guards with a silenced pistol in fatal spots. After the guards were dealt with Pofter planted the bomb in an Air Craft Carrier magazine and watched the whole port burst into flames.

Later in the year of 1957 the Colonel's base was found and had to be evacuated. The Turks knew they were still in the cave and offered the troops that if they surrender they will not kill them. Colonel Pofter told Private Doukas and Admiral Tsacounis to get out of the cave through the secret passage way. When Admiral Tsacounis hesitated Colonel Pofter smiled and said to Tsacounis "May God bless you and your family". When Admiral Tsacounis was a long distance away from the cave he saw it engulf in flames.
