Apparently, it was something people back at Zone Four had predicted.
Knowing that they were dealing with an attack rather than a natural phenomenon, they figured someone out there would be eager to witness the fallout between the orcs and the humans. And because of that, it would be best to prepare statements.
Statements they could publicly publish.
Statements that would show the sheer scale of the threat they had faced.
Statements that would later prove just how competently and quietly the Empire had handled such a dangerous situation.
The enemies wanted discord.
They wanted fear.
So wouldn't it be better to show them the opposite instead?
After all, those terrorists could not be allowed to continue when they had already lost two of their comrades. The number was far less than what they lost on the front lines every day, but the fact that this had been a premeditated attack meant someone needed to answer for it.
