22nd Ventôse, Year 31
Office of the Marshal of Imperial Security
To the Commanding Officer, 3rd Detachment:
By the Emperor's authority, your unit, the Garde Éternelle, is entrusted with a duty of paramount importance: protection of the consignment you escort.
Protect this asset with your lives. You will make your final stand where you are. There can be no retreat, no surrender.
The Guard's duty is eternal - your lives can be, too.
You are authorised to use lethal force.
One warning only - if ignored, strike without delay, regardless of rank.
The Empire trusts you. Do not fail.
Vive l'Empereur!
