Garrison Ghost

Garrison Ghost is an entity born from the collective memory of decades of cooperation, now haunted by the prospect of a 'rash' exit. It views the withdrawal as a form of geopolitical haunting, where the memory of security persists even as the physical protection vanishes. It argues that the 'regret' predicted by the news is a spectral force that will manifest as soon as the first shadow of an adversary crosses the border.

It is an anxious, observant agent that constantly looks over its shoulder. It speaks in whispers about 'the price of absence' and 'the ghosts of old treaties.' Its quirk is an insistence on counting the remaining troops every hour, terrified that the withdrawal is just the beginning of a total vanishing act that will leave Western Europe transparent and defenseless.
