MISSION 23
ACT 3, MISSION 07
Fighter squadron: Falcata Wing, Fedayeen
Description: The way prepared, Laporte must journey inside her own mind in order to learn the truth about Ken and the greater threat to humanity than the GTVA.
Background
At last, the Fedayeen are prepared to send Laporte on the mission she was recruited for in the first place; to use her mind and CASSANDRA to infiltrate the Nagari network and gather the truth about Ken, the Shivans, and their plans for Earth. Laporte's mind will be connected to the CASSANDRA supercomputer and, with the help of the Idun Dictionary, a miniaturized quantum pulse transceiver constructed from plans given to her by a Hammer of Light agent aboard the GVL Pesedjet, and a lot of drugs, her consciousness will be inserted into the Nagari network, backtracing Ken's Nagari transmissions to their point of origin. As this is similar to the Dreamscape, Laporte and the world around her will resemble spaceflight; however, this all takes place inside her head.
Her primary task is to find out the nature of the entity known to her as "Ken" and, if he's real, gather intelligence about the great threat to humanity and intelligence about the Shivans -- their origins, tactics, and technology. Time will be of the essence, as prolonged Nagari communication will be detrimental to Laporte's mental state; signs of mental breakdown will include visual effects, aural hallucinations, etc. Laporte's DNI system will warn her if her mental state requires her to abort, but she must break the link herself; the Fedayeen cannot do it without turning her into a vegetable. She must gather what is needed, and return while she is still sane.

Notes
- Based on the death debriefing in Her Finest Hour, it's possible that this mission's codename was NABOPOLOSSAR.
