When Freed became a member of the New State Army, his ties to South Window proved useful as Shu ordered him to infiltrate the South Window soldiers, recently conscripted by Highland, in order to spread rumors of their imminent execution and pro-New State Army propaganda. Freed succeeded in his mission, turning the former State forces to the New State side and increasing the then-small army's recruits.
