Von List issues a missive to all Die Wahrheit personnel on the status of the Egyptian unit.
Transcript:
Von List: Oberführer Von List to all Die Wahrheit personnel. We have lost contact with our unit in the Egyptian desert.
Von List: It appears something went wrong when they set off demolition charges in the chamber where we found the Scepter of Kortifex.
Von List: This mission was to prevent Professor Krafft and his allies from discovering the circumstances of Kortifex’s imprisonment in that temple.
Von List: Instead, upon detonation, every radio at the site went dark -- including those in vehicles well outside the blast radius.
Von List: This was 36 hours ago. Since the task force has yet to make contact, all are presumed dead.
Von List: Krafft and his soldiers were still trapped in Stalingrad as this incident unfolded.
Von List: This raises the possibility that someone else is now working to subvert Die Wahrheit’s mission.
Von List: We are working to ascertain what really transpired at our desert operations site. Until then, remain vigilant.
