Settlement

Few have heard of the village of El Llano. A rare but captivating development near the Chepo River. Another foiled attempt to smuggle a record amount of methamphetamine across the Colombian border was organized here. In terms of the amount of illegal substances seized annually, these few hundred bags of white crystal do not impress Colombian customs officials. However, underneath the carefully packaged goods, they discover the real problem. The chilling practice is beginning to take on a life of its own.

The port city of Colón, near the Panama Canal.
The temporary office of the DEA, a branch operating in the Republic. An emergency meeting has been called in one of its rooms. From behind the wall comes a rhythmic rumbling, from which the door opens almost of its own accord. In the thick smoke of burning cigarettes draws the silhouette of the Agency's Chief Administrator - Xavier Hernandez James.

- We're in trouble... and a serious one at that. Agent Raquel Davis, in charge of reconnaissance under Operation Settlement, continued to observe a village near El Llano. About fifty hours ago, an informant reported that she had managed to establish operational contact with a local fish farmer and trader, code-named "Papa." This is the last message from Davis.

We have 24 hours before I have to pass the report of Raquel's disappearance "higher up." You know the exact location of the village. You know what to do, go ahead.
