Quoi??? - turning a tired general into one wide awake and surprised can be easy if you know the correct words to say.
C'est vrai, mon Général. Roussillon est connecté á l'Edinburgh. - came the repeated response from lightyears away.
Several months ago the Gallic Royal Navy constructed a forward operations base within the Edinburgh system relatively quickly. Bretonia and her allies realised the threat Issoudun Drydock posed, and began planning a counter-attack for its removal soon enough. The Council's part in this whole act was to build up a small fleet out of whatever they can spare from the defenses of Roussillon, send this support contingent through the Tau-31 gateway, then to Edinburgh, meeting up mid-way with whatever forces Bretonia can send against the drydock.
Général? - Pierre was brought back from his depth of thoughts. He looked up at the image of the other person.
[Arrange a conference call between ourselves in ten minutes from now on. We have much to discuss.]
Entendu, Général.
Oh, et Théo, [make sure to bring Adjudant-général Marie with yourself.]
Oui, Monsieur. - Théo nodded, and finally disappeared as the communication channel closed.
Pierre took out his Aurel contact lenses so he can rub his eyes and take a deep breath before getting up and moving on to attend his next tasks. It seems there will not be much sleep tonight.

Théophile Durand is an adjudant-colonel in his middle twenties, average height, slim like many of his age. His short brown hair is still long enough to cover a thin, long scar on the side of his head, just above his left ear, a memento of an almost fatal dog fight with a royalist pilot during the earlier years of his career in The Council. That was when he decided he would rather command capital vessels than die in one those tiny flying coffins.
He has been the acting commander of the CLN Chasselas since April, effectively leading the entire Flottille Rebelle Rouge. As such, he was also tasked with keeping track of any development regarding the operation against Issoudun Drydock in the absence of Général LaFlamme. Théo knew this amount of responsibility was unlike anything he was ever trusted before, but he also knew if he passes this test, it will reflect well upon his career in the movement.
With doubts, hopes and curiosity about how they will proceed from now on, mixed in his heart and mind, he proceeded to hail Adujdant-général Marie in a private channel.
