17th of Sunt, 5018.
Kant was found sitting in his room, typing away on the typewriter. His office was filled with absolute silence, with the only exceptions being the breaths he take, the sounds of the birds singing and chipping outside, and the mechanical clicks of the typewriter, as he worked on writing a charter for another agency that he intends of using.
He had finally cleared out the government of its former Salvator Humat agents, who he viewed as more of a liability at this point, rather than an asset. Now, he can move on to the next step, and rest assured that Rose Valline won't find out.
He had been working on an agency, one that is designed to protect the sensitive information and valuable technology his kingdom has, while also gathering information from the other kingdoms, and performing any operations that will sabotage their attempts at industrialization without him.
He had been working on this charter ever since he was finally free from their grasp, who can no longer be able to potentially hand out information to Rose without permission. As he was working on the charter, he hears a knock on his door.
"Who is it?" Kant asked.
"It is us, your majesty! It is only me and Defense Minister Armstrong! We have come here at your request!" he hears Alan's voice reply. Feeling sure that it was then, he allowed them to enter.
"Good morning, sir. Is there a reason you summoned us?" Alan asked.
"Yes. Sit down," Kant ordered. The two men sat down on the chairs, after closing the door.
"Your majesty, would you mind spilling the details? Why have we both been summoned?" Armstrong asks. Kant is silent. He walks to the door, looks around the halls, before closing and locking the door,
"Can I trust you two?" he asks with his normal deep and monotone voice. The two ministers find it odd that Kant had asked them the question.
"Why yes, of course, sir! You are the one paying us our salaries, and you were the one who chose us," Alan replied.
"I agree with Minister Alan," Armstrong replied.
"Good. Now, as for the reason I called you two here..." Kant walks back to his chair and sits down. He then looks at both of them.
"I need help in finding someone for me," he told the two ministers.
"Finding someone?" Armstrong questioned.
"Yes. More specifically, I need to fill in a spot for a future agency that I intend to find, which will be vital for the safety and security of Hoverdam," Kant replied. The two nod, as they start to understand what he was implying.
"Oh! You want us to give recommendations. I got it, sir. What kind of agency you are starting now?"
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "An intelligence agency," Kant replied bluntly.
"Could you please elaborate, sir?" Armstrong asked.
"Of course. Now with those pesky ex-Salvator Humat agents out of the government, I feel safe in forming this intelligence agency. I have already come up with a name; the Central Intelligence Agency.
As the same suggests, it is a spy agency, directly given the task of spying on other kingdoms, to gather intelligence, and hand it over to policymakers and key decision makers in the government like ministers and me," Kant explained.
"I need you two to give me some people that would be perfect for occupying the role of Directors or Ministers of the agencies. Do you two have anyone you two know?" Kant questioned.
"We could. However, I think we would need more information on how it works. Could you please elaborate on that sir? Can you explain to us both how the agency works?" Alan asked.
"Sure. The Central Intelligence Agency is an intelligence agency responsible for providing national security intelligence to heads of government, including ministers, directors, and the king.
The agency operates under the "Director of Intelligence" and is responsible for collecting, analyzing, and disseminating intelligence information to key decision-makers, such as ourselves.
Their primary mission is to gather and analyze intelligence information that will help us understand and respond to threats to the kingdom of Hoverdam.
Their secondary mission is to protect valuable technologies from leaking out to other kingdoms that could pose a risk to our kingdom.
The agency can also engage in covert action, which involves carrying out secret operations to achieve strategic objectives. For example, to conduct counterintelligence, assess economic, and regional security, and so on.
The CIA is organized into four main directorates: the Directorate of Intelligence, the Directorate of Operations, the Directorate of Science and Technology, and the Directorate of Support.
Each directorate is responsible for a specific area of the agency's operations, such as intelligence analysis, covert operations, technology development, or administrative support.
The Directorate of Intelligence is mainly for intelligence work on foreign kingdoms. The Directorate of Operations is for the covert operations I just mentioned.
The Directorate of Science and Technology is responsible for protecting our technology, and the Directorate of Support is to provide logistical support for the other agencies, to conduct their work efficiently." Kant debriefed.
"I hope that explanation is sufficient enough for both of you. Do you require me to elaborate further?" Kant asks.
"No, no, sir. It is fine. We got everything we needed. However, we might need some more time to think of someone who would be able to lead us to an important organization. Would you mind giving us some characteristics?"
"I want someone who is loyal, while also being good at his job. Can you find one for me?"
"Of course, sir! We can! Though, we might need you to be a little more specific than that." Alan replied. Kant went over to his desk and grabbed a paper. He then handed it over to both of them.
"That is a list of qualities I desire. Find the best man there is. I do not mind paying him an extensive salary."
"I see sir. We will get back to you as soon as we can." Alan replied.
"Isn't that right, Armstong?"
"Yes, we shall," Armstrong replied.
"Good. I will give you till the end of the year to find a good candidate. I must have one before the construction of the HISAR building is complete. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir. You do," Armstrong replied.
"Good. You two may leave the office. I will finish up with this and place it on a file." With that, the ministers got up from the room, unlocked the door, and left. Kant moved the typewriter closer to him and continued typing.
