I am betrayed by my own kind, and that act of betrayal has unleashed the greatest evil. It is one of our greatest laws that sister shall not harm sister, but says nothing about bringing about harm through the agency of others, if such injury can be contrived at arms length. It requires a degree of moral flexibility, one that leaders of every culture and civilisation have in abundance. For now I can only trust my runabout, that has disobeyed orders and come to my assistance. It’s sensors show an unfolding disaster terrible to behold. The controlling minds of the Great Enemy have gone, distracted by some outside event and then destroyed by my own hand. The dormant forces held in check for some unknown purpose now run amok amongst the inhabitants of the planet. Human and animals alike begin to change, subverted and deformed by the nano technology known as Dust. Only a small proportion of the population is affected, but it is enough the bring the edifice of civilisation crashing down. Somewhere in that tragedy is a human man more precious to me than any of my kind, and I must thrust myself into its gaping maw to rescue him. -- Sylenia ny Kleneptra ny Hybritta hept Zilaerion An original space craft model created in Cinema 4D.
