The Frontier Dispatches: Dispatch #007

By Jolius Blast

The Arena Vanguard

Letter from the Frontier: License to Foil

Hey fam, hope all is well back home!

So there I was, conducting a top-secret, high-priority covert reconnaissance mission—which definitely had nothing to do with tracking down my favorite sweet treats in the bazaar—when I intercepted two highly suspicious operatives.

Honestly, these guys had the worst tradecraft I’ve ever seen. They were practically screaming to be cuffed before they even pulled off the job. I’m talking full-blown cartoon villain energy: dramatic whispering, terrible disguises, and aggressive pointing at the shop across the street. Naturally, my field instincts kicked in. They were targeting that eccentric Time Mage’s shop down in the central market—specifically, a chest of enchanted gems.

Now, a true gentleman agent knows patience. I maintained my cover and let the scenario play out, mostly to avoid a false arrest report on my record just in case I misread the intel. But sure as the wind blows, they made their move. They burst into the shop, snagged a handful of glowing gems, and sprinted out the front door—only to run full-speed into a literal brick wall of fiery muscle, glorious armor, and (if I do say so myself) an absolutely majestic head of hair.

The look on their faces when they bounced off my chest was absolute gold. Total spy-movie perfection. I wish I could send you a photo of the moment their master plan crumbled, but since cameras are scarce out here on the frontier, I’ve sketched out the scene for you below instead.

Love you guys very much,

Best, Blast
