Surface report by Nero – 18/04/2523
Firstly Fuck the Vulcans, right in their chrome domes. Fuck all three of them.
They knew they couldn’t beat us, so they try to turn us. Now I know how they think, they feel. And it ain’t pretty.
Fortunately we got guys like Shannon and Brenner. Docs with bigger brains than a Vulcan’s helmet. Docs that can bring us back from the brink, death, assimilation. No task is too much of a strain for our medics.
Those hive mothers are gone forever. No way back for them, now. It’s time to move onto the next threat to bunker security and success, and as far as this soldier is concerned there’s no greater threat than Aegis. Fronted by the insidious Eli, smiles and promises belie his danger.
He offers such a sweet future, while threatening to destroy our way of life right now.
Kill the other, he says coldly and “rationally”. It’s the only way to grow to develop. It doesn’t matter if that other is your best friend your brother, your wife. If they are Psychic, they gotta go. Cos they’re a risk.
Like we ain’t used to dealing with risk. Like I don’t know that my best friend, my brother, my wife is always a risk. Everything is risky. Fuck his analysis of the situation.
And then yesterday he walked into camp, all smiles and promises. And by the time he leaves, still smiling, still promising, Councillor Field, one of the most humane people I’ve ever met. Admits the mission she went on with “Brother Eli” led to her killing a group of Bunker Ascendant psykers.
Killing her own people, maybe people that voted for her. She has to take responsibility, but it can’t be ignored that she took one of the most anti-psionic ideologists out with her on this mission, and this occurred. His presence in this cannot be ignored.
As far as I see it Aegis and Eli are a risk.
So fuck the hive. Fuck Aegis and Eli.
And Fuck you Banshee.
