Hi Tifa!

The first thing we'd like to make clear here is that a plot that involves outing the Displaced to the general public is something that will need to involve the entire playerbase in some way. We're not sure whether or not Faith would have any interest in bringing this up to the other Displaced, but we'll need to fashion a reason that it becomes a discussion between the Displaced at large. It could even be something where another Displaced catches on to what she's doing and brings it to the rest of the Displaced, if Faith herself wouldn't do that.

However, we're not opposed to the Displaced ultimately being outed! This will be a long and involved plot but we're definitely open to that outcome.

As for your questions, we'd like to suggest that Faith go to a politician rather than the UNA because 1) the UNA is likely going to be a dead end and 2) it would also end up resembling the plot that you already did with Rey, which we'd rather not retread (and we imagine you'd prefer not to either!). However, getting a politician or anyone else to actually believe her and take her seriously will require work on her part, along with some hard proof. Also, most people in this world still correlate the Displaced with Morningstar, so that will be another point against her -- which may make whoever she goes to less willing to play ball. These are all things we'd just like you to keep in mind when approaching the plot.

Given that we're suggesting the candidates, both Durcell and Lynch are options! If you have a preference, let us know.

Re: the UNA officers, there are none! It's the eerie part of the UNA and how it functions, as it seems as if the orders come down from New Beijing. Faith would be able to see that this was likely because numerous soldiers keep being shipped back to New Beijing, especially if she was trying to find officers. Their movement out of the base is always as a unit, heading toward trains within UNA-affiliated trucks. Their homes are in barracks at the bases in each of the cities (if she goes worldhopping to verify), so they don't have any methods of reaching them for sabotage. None of them have personal lives beyond their commitment to the UNA. It seems as if there is an acknowledged direct line between the UNA soldiers and the government itself.
