The room, tense just moments before, lightened up immediately.
The commanders' faces lit with cautious hope, their shoulders relaxing ever so slightly. It was as if a weight had been lifted, even if temporarily.

The commanders paused, exchanging glances.
Three missions, three requests. It was bold of him, but considering the circumstances, they didn't have much of a choice.
"Deal," Oliver said without hesitation, his deep voice cutting through the silence like a blade.
He leaned forward slightly, resting his arms on the table. "Tell us the first one."
