BREAK ON THROUGH ▇▇▇ "Bell" ▇▇▇▇▇ Central Highlands, South Vietnam July 16, 1968 The air is thick with the humidity of 1968, a drug‑induced haze Adler forced into your veins. His objective: the Red Door. Your mind fights it, a wall of instinct screaming that Adler is lying. Perseus’s echo whispers a warning against trust. Then the jungle shreds apart. You are hanging from the shattered frame of a crashed helicopter, sparks raining into the mud. Adler’s voice cuts through the static: *Defend the survivors.* You drop, your body a map of fresh pain, and grab a weapon as VC shadows close in. Ahead, a crumbling ruin splits the path in two. Adler insists you take the right fork. Every nerve in you pulls left. The choice hangs in the gunsmoke.*
