03 Apr 2022Xipzo
Sometimes you just want peace and quiet, to be alone away from any contact, any interaction. It was one of those days for me.. I took a break from it all - to travel my ancestral lands, to visit these mountains my ancestors had conquered, the villages they burned... and the villages they built.Some say im odd. They would be correct from their point of view.
I love helping people, i really do... but something about slaughtering my enemies just feels fulfilling. maybe that is why im an "warmonger" ? i do not crave war. War - it's a terrible thing, it's never those that start it that suffer, its always innocent bystanders. They say im as cruel as i am kind.. but am i? i have suppressed my emotions for a long long time now, they get in my way. Logic always wins, but i will admit.. i may have let loose a few times. Any war i participate, i try to be efficient and merciful. i do not torture my enemies, they meet their end swiftly and decisively. There is no point in extending their suffering, they will atone for their mistaken beliefs with their lives, and lives are the most precious - the ultimate price they say.
News had reached me just a few days ago. These new come from AESA leadership - "Warmonger" is being deployed to "Ross 596" system. My hearth thumps with equal parts of joy and suffering. We will spread the glorious "Democracy" in this system, the right king of democracy! This is why my hearth rejoices, yet it weeps for all those lives that will be lost and never know of the joys of our right "Democracy". It is a joyful and yet sad day.
"Gray" - Captain of warship "Warmonger" before departing to pacify Ross 596. From personal logs.
Somewhere in space at system called "Maia". From unknown ship's captain's logs:
"Today we rejoice! Our operations are returning to normal! The demon has left our system and we sincerely hope it will never come back. "warmonger" has decimated our forces for months now, there is no reasoning with that zealot of a captain preaching about "Democracy", his crew no better. We met them once, the crew on one of the stations in a bar... God was it awful - there's usually a nice atmosphere there, but that day it felt as if electricity was in the air. Those zealots were spending time amongst themselves, they didnt bother no one, their captn sure was bloody intimidating. Heck i thought he was a bloody tank from his size, old man Josh came to ask him about his ship... and they spoke quite nicely at first, untill he laughed at that guys faction. I heard it with my own two ears i tell you! He said AESA aint nothing but a bunch of miserable dying pussies... The bloodbath that started in that bar spread to "Maia's" space, "Warmonger's" crew hunted down any ship they saw. And god i have never seen a ship function with so much damage. I dont know what called them, or if we managed to force them out of "Maia", but i really really hope they never come back!"
Video evidence gathered by intelligence suggests "Maia" incident started due to insults thrown at AESA faction. "Warmonger" was recorded destroying over 350 vessels during this incident, the ship was estimated to have left the system at around 70% effective state.
Somewhere in deep space between star systems - a song can be heard, theres a ship singing with joy as it's lasers and multicannons fire upon heretics. Every impact of its projectiles sings praises to "Democracy" and weeps for those not knowing it's freeing embrace.
