a lost military runner must team up with a soldier of the warring nation, after splitting with his navigator, in the forest they now intend to cross resourceless, before the lack of intelligence-he must relay-causes more casualties..
As written, the logline seems to say the runner know he's partnering up with the enemy.? ?Which raises Richiev's question:? why?

The Big Reveal:? he discovers he has partnered up with his foe.
So the runner doesn’t know his true identity when he partners up and that’s the way the logline should be written, based on what the runner knows at the time of the inciting incident, not what he is going to discovery at the mid-point.
But then why would the translator partner up with the runner, someone he knows to be the foe?
Seems to me the translator has the more interesting dramatic dilemma.? Maybe the story should be written from his pov, with him as the protagonist,
fwiw

So there’s the analogue and justification by adult powers-that-be for setting twin brothers and sisters against each other.
It’s another version of the rite of passage trope; in this case for the right to live.
fwiw.
