==== ''Agents Amongst Enemies'' ====
In recent decades the SHD has pivoted toward expanding their reach beyond Qis’ borders. They have embedded thousands of agents in other nations. These smaller cells have begun to grow. While other nations know Qis is slowly infiltrating their populations, the exact scale of the infiltration is yet unknown. However, many Nomarchs in Kar-Thonis have begun preparing for the worst case scenario.

What Kar-Thonis does not know is that SHD already has an agent high up in the government. The entire political system lies open on the operating table before the Qis. A lesser organization would have already struck but the SHD has longer term plans. 

They know that the Pharaoh is constructed from multiple different people. The current plan, nicknamed operation Butterfly, is to insert a loyal SHD agent so they can become chosen for the next Pharaoh. Once chosen they will merge with the other initiates and become the new Pharaoh. It is the hope of the SHD that their programming will be strong enough to create a Pharaoh that is loyal to Soris and the Qis nation.
