Forecast for the GN talks
DSN Website: Since the ceasefire signed last month, the intermittent talks that have been held by envoys from Neucom Inc. as well as General Resource LTD have been leading up to the conference that will take place at NUN Headquarters. The subject is reported to be about terms and conditions of the truce, but a schedule for the conference has not not yet been published. The NUN has issued a statement saying that "We are still in the process of conciliating the two."

Pre-sortie check

 * Gilbert Park: Emergency dispatch for SARF. For information on the objectives, I advise you to go over the mission details sent to you encrypted. Everything must be done by the book, mistakes will not be tolerated this time. Stay focused. -Dismissed.

Briefing
''As we have gotten General Resource and Neucom to suspend hostilities for one hour, our very own UPEO Del. Clarkson, for the purpose of ceasefire arbitration, is now headed for Cape Rainy in a personal plane. You and Erich will be escorting his plane. In addition, Fiona will be in that plane escorting the Del. personally. This is a top-secret mission, and thus, only a select few will be present. - Dismissed.''

Mission Start

 * Erich: H-hey, isn't this weird? Why aren't there any escort planes besides us here?! No matter how top secret this is, this is strange, don't you think?
 * Fiona: Keep it together! I'm keeping a close guard on Del. Clarkson, so I'll leave the skies to you two.

Enemy fighters detected

 * Commander: It seems that our intel was leaked. General bandits are approaching. Prepare to intercept them immediately.
 * Erich: Shit, if General comes up on us like this, we'll be sitting ducks. Fi! Damn... is that jamming?! Fi! Be careful! Respond!

If Fiona is saved
