Temjin.
That name is respected among the order of mercenaries known as Ravens. Respected.....and feared, at least among those that must face him in battle, in the arena or on the battlefield. Many laud him as one of the greatest Ravens to ever exist, he thinks of himself differently however. He is only a guy who pilots a big humanoid AC called White Knight. He never became a "Nine-Breaker" in the arena, never got rich, has had more rebuilds and repairs for his AC than any other Raven which says something for his lack of evasion skills. He only saved the world, that's it, nothing big or grandiose, he just happened to save all of humanity. He is about to discover how much one person can make a difference, and how important his role in the future of humanity will be.
Part I, Episode 1, Chapter 1
The wind was howling through the canyon, blowing dust and small gravel. Humans had finally returned to the surface en masse and returned to a very different world than the one that they had resided beneath for many long years. Humans, and the technology that they had created during their time underground. Anyway, the wind was very strong. People had named this place "Point of no return". No, it wasn't named that because of the frightful storms that tore through the area, but for the fact that anyone who entered never came back. Strange things happened there at night, stranger than anything that could be described normally.
"Raven, report." Came the gruff voice of Zach, Temjin's operator and liaison for the Global Cortex, a group that organized the Raven's Nest, the home base for all Ravens. "Pretty windy here. I'm having' trouble keeping Knight standing in this. Saw some empty ACs though." Temjin reported. Zach wasn't really the talkative type and Temjin liked things that way. Suddenly, cerulean beams shot past Knight from a shadow further into the canyon. Less than a second later, Knight's right and left arm were sliced off as the shadow, now less that 10 meters from him, executed a crescent slash with a beam blade. The enemy was surprised however, when a load of missiles hit it head on. Doesn't that guy feel stupid, Temjin thought as the recovering enemy looked at the severed limbs on the ground, seeing for the first time that there were no weapons being held in the hands, nor were there any shields or beam blades present. Then Temjin got his first look at his attacker. It was of no design he had ever seen before, and it was glowing an odd bluish color. He activated the left back-mounted chain gun and opened fire. No effect, the shells hit but they were being absorbed by it as it's armor rippled like water from all of the shots that hit. Temjin then stated several words that were extremely obscene and therefore will not be repeated. Time to get out of here! Temjin thought, completely terrified at this nightmare that stood before him. However, the enemy had other plans. Temjin watched incredulous as the enemy began to spin rapidly, glowing brighter and brighter. . . . . BOOM!!!!!!!!
