The Orator

General Talos led the rebellion against the Gaian Commonwealth. Many years of hardship and toil led to Talos' victory. By doing so, citizens obtained the freedom to achieve in the arts and sciences once more. With the AI's purged, human society could advance whereas before the world had stagnated. He will seize power for the masses because he had been called by the Orator. Leading was his sign of devotion. By the year 255, the plans will set in motion. All I have left to do is pray.

The colony had overstepped the line a final time. Gaia was guilty of tax evasion, banned technology, and destruction of Earth property. I called the President to fill him in on the details. The disaster of 2111 was not to be repeated. Otherwise, the re-election of the United Earth Confederacy would not run smoothly for Rhea Aionios. As all politicians know, war improves approval ratings. An opportunity like this could set Rhea up as a legend. I just needed to be on her side to enjoy the benefits.

Baethan no longer holds his head high after the War. I had killed my friends in the heat of battle and watched their heads fall with a terror-stricken face. I earned his stripes for money, while he stripped himself of his humanity. I had run out of his sleep medicine and would have to make the trip downtown. Maybe I could get some crepes at the bakery as well. I heard a new row of shops had opened up near my Aunt's old place. I enjoy the bobbles those vendors sell.
