The light was strange. Vaguely reddish, while the sky was more green than it should have been. Alien, but right, for now. Criminal and terrible and toxic… but a home, for those who would brave it.
Kiera raised her arm and tried to block out the scorching sun of Govorkam, the F-class scorcher that threatened Outcast, Nexus, and Angaran alike. Bright, too bright… but a rest for the wicked, for now.
The Vaults were clear, and Meridian awaits
They were so close. Eos, Voeld, Havarl, Ditaeon, even New Tuchanka - all the worlds were close to perfect harmony. Kiera wasn't supposed to hear this - Suvi had tried so hard to keep this from her - but the Initiative was even going to name the first world after their Dad, when all of this was done.
Dad! Mom! Don't put this on me...
Kiera put that aside, while she climbed the ridge, Jaal and Peebee behind her. Peebee had been hinting and gasping and whining
-don't think about her breasts don't think about their perfect roundness and
And oh no, now she's just going to another Remnant site and there's no Rem-tech there and can we go to Meridian already?
Well. Now Gil is going to have a kid, and Liam's had his movie night. Kallo was actually touched when you "cried" over his body - apparently, you've got some acting chops. But now Peebee has shared your bed for three weeks now, and you can't deny her charms.
There they are. Two Observers, four Assemblers, two Breachers. And a fuckload of Kett. Two Destined, at least.
private channel "Pathfinder. There is a Kett signal in the Remnant camp. You may wish to initiate hostilities. I recommend you destroy the Remnant before you attempt to address the Kett."
"Jaal, Grenade on the Kett. Peebee, Pull on the Assemblers. Leave the Observers to me."
"Oh, yes, and you're just going to throw a biotic signal, no? What will Lexi think?" Jaal turned his head and just stared at me. He wouldn't stop me, but he would always question.
I grinned at Jaal, activated my biotics, and threw myself off the cliff.
"She'll think I'm being stuuuuuupid - whoooooooo!"
I twisted in midair, bringing my arms and legs forward, and CHARGED on top of the unsuspecting Remnant Assemblers before me -
THROW
CHARGE
-And, after sending his friend flying for twenty meters, thrust my omnitool straight into the second Assembler, who reached nowhere… nowhere...
Jaal's foot stepped on the brains leaking out of the sack of flesh. He could not think of them as Angara. Exaltation had destroyed them - they were "exalted" and thus wronged. He found the Destined, and remembered the flowers of Havarl
-the beauties of Heleus
-I HEAR YOU, PATHFINDER
Peebee looks at you as you look around you, shaken by the voices in your head-
There are the corpses of two Observers, four Assemblers, and four Breachers - and there was one Ascendant - I just couldn't get them done in time.
I grin, seeing the Kett before me.
"Annihilation! Charge!"
I built up the Annihilation around me and-
"Pathfinder, the Scourge is inbound - get to the Nomad!"
"Pathfinder - no - God help us!"
It came -
It destroyed
It… awakened?
Tendrils that look like God coming toward me and -
