It wasn’t just the mask that was a disguise.

The identity he carved for himself by following orders with both ruthlessness and precision made Simon Riley a respected name in the SAS. He had distinct characteristics that were impossible to hide. His height would certainly set him apart.

Then there were things he could do. He adjusted the balaclava, still not used to the feeling of wearing it for a prolonged period of time. Returning to the base was not something that Simon would ever be able to do again. With Price as his chaperone, for the first time Ghost could.

But there was one thing still that made him stand out. One last part of Simon that he could sweep under the rug. When he was escorted into the office to meet the general, it would be Ghost who spoke. The Manchester accent which he once wore with pride would be squashed by a false be once. Southern like price.

The Mancunian vowels he’d obtained from his upbringing in Droylsden were just another thing that died along with Simon.
