What am I?
22 Mar 2016Battlus
Sitting in my flight seat, I can only feel the emptiness of the void reflecting back the contents of my heart. The countless lives that have been taken by my hand. Sure, some of them deserved it, but a large majority of others were slain without thought. In my service to the empire, how many had I killed?I had undertaken hundreds of assassination contracts during my time in the imperial navy. Rebels, rouges, celebrities, and civilians. Were it not for this suit covering them, I could swear my hands would be stained crimson. How many had I unjustly killed in the emperor's name? Their screams and the echos of their exploding halls bounce across the walls of my mind. Am I a monster? Am I a hero? There's no way to tell. I can only hope that the atrocities that I have committed have protected my family. Saved my home, and my empire.
I need a drink.
