PANEL 1 EL PUÑO, a woman in dark military garb, white hood and two swords poking from her back, peaks around a corner from the area we saw her in the previous page. Between her fingers she holds a slim, silver bar. Audio from the communication device: “PUÑO, Sebastián calling. The device in your hands has a use-limit, before the quantum link decays…” PANEL 2 Close up on EL PUÑO, in shadow, device between her fingers. Audio from the device: “So pray forgive me, as I must do my utmost to strive for brevity in my communications, lest this methodology terminate early, white still in progress. Yes-yes-yes.” PANEL 3: EL PUÑO in silhouette against a light wall. Audio from the device: “So! To the point! The Empire’s new drive monitoring system! My nye have discovered a loophole int he scans: given the massively wide scope of its scanning area, the efficacy of the system has a key limit:” PANEL 4: EL PUÑO still in shadow against the wall. Audio from the device: “ALL Localized drive activations are recorded in 3-second packets. Which means… if we leap within seconds of an imperial drive, we are a ghost to the system!” PANEL 5: EL PUÑO looks slightly surprised. Audio from the device: “This could be the key to moving our personnel into position. Yes-yes-yes. YES-YES-YES!!!” PANEL 6: All white background, EL PUÑO is annoyed. Audio from the device: “Yes-yes-yes.” EL PUÑO, thought bubble: “Lord, this man.”
