Kyle returned to Forward Base 198 and went to Major Sovignor.
"I've heard about what has happened," Major Sovignor transmitted. "If I had known about Commander Meristo's plan, I wouldn't have sent you to Fort U-878."
"I know," Kyle answered. "This all happened because I need to keep my identity secret. It has nothing to do with you."
To Humanity, the value of every Seeker was clearly defined. Many people said that one couldn't put a value on life, but if Humanity followed this philosophy, it would have long since collapsed. In order to be efficient in a crisis, values had to be determined and assigned.
What had happened on Fort U-878 was a misjudgment of value. Exchanging the life of a Sage Magnet to uncover the identity of such a valuable spy would be an amazing trade. Humanity would benefit.
