How it begins

June 12th, 1942. You are Alain Quincy, man of leisure and secret agent for The Green Coast's Ministry of Colonial Finance, and as good-looking as ever. You are carrying nothing. Helzog has just told you your mission: steal a black wooden mask on display in General Marchgrave's office while the General is absent and bring it back to Helzog as quickly as possible. Since the front of the Palace will be guarded, your best bet is to circle through the jungle and approach the back of the Gardens. Good luck.
