I came here to do something- and I was going to do it.

The elders were flabbergasted. 

It was a tragedy- no, a disaster. 

In the last three hundred and forty thousand years, they had never lost more than three commanders to the same planet. But now, not only did they lose six commanders- they also lost one of their own. They lost a citizen. 

"And judging by his last words, he'll come to destroy us."

"If they warp here, it should take them two weeks at the least. We'll be ready."

There were about twelve elders yet, no one could see each other's faces. Their bodies weren't here. 

Just the conscience. 

This place was dark and there was shiny blue water below them- dripping. 

  "We can handle radiation with the barriers, but it'll be tricky to deal with a large nuclear strike."

"Yes, however- given the time frame we can definitely-"

They all stopped. 

Beep!

Beep!

Beep!

Something happened. 

A screen flashed over everyone's eyes.
