[Planet: Titan] [Name: Rulis] [House: None (Taniks owes allegiance to no House)] The broken Ketch shook violently, battered by the waves that ebbed and flowed along Titan’s rainy, oceanic, surface. Rulis staggered out of bed, normally Fallen would need Ether for survival, even when they slept. Yet Rulis was smart, he put on his ether respirator first thing as he got up. He was groggy, having barely slept the night before due to the ongoing rain and the fighting between the Hive and House Dusk. Stumbling across the cabin, he grabbed his armor and weaponry. He had made a full set of armor from the remains of the Ketch. He used a Shock Pistol and a Full Auto version of a Wire Rifle. ———————————————————————————————————— He opened the door and was greeted by an open expanse of sky. The rain fell down in immense droves yet that was no concern to him. Rulis donned his helmet and turned on his visor. The visor fed him with information regarding hostiles, the environment, and rare Golden Age Relics. He had found a relic weeks earlier in the lower regions of the Arcology and that was his first location to visit. He used the Light infused technology that he had gained from Mithrax to transmat his Pike to his side. He rode off towards the Arcology in search of the relics that lay within it’s watery depths. Once he arrived at the entrance to the Foyer of the Arcology he pulled out a Ghost of all things, the thing had a shell that was similar to Sepiks Prime, it was named Tajiks Delta or Delta for short. Rulis and Delta made their way to the Innovation sector of the Arcology, and there they found a Peak Golden Age CPU among other things. ———————————————————————————————————— “Over here, there’s something here!” Tajiks said. Rulis followed behind her and the two made their way into a Prototype Testing Facility. There they found more stuff from the Peak of the Golden Age. Things such as a Universal Translator, a Rocket Launcher labeled “Wardcliff Coil”, and a package of SIVA. Rulis picked up the Translator and the Launcher. He decided to take the SIVA with him, he never planned on going to Mars, it was dangerous there Hive and Guardians roamed the area, and then there was Rasputin. Going to Mars would be a death sentence but if Rulis wanted to prevent another SIVA Crisis then seeking Rasputins help would be the best option. “We’re going to Mars, we have to see Rasputin because I really do not want another SIVA Crisis to occur.” Rulis said. “Are you sure? I’m kind of worried about you to be honest, being the one of the first Eliksni Guardians and all.” Tajiks replied. “I know, yet I’m serious now, we’re going to Mars, that’s it, no going back, ok.” Rulis said. Just when Rulis had finished speaking, someone entered the room, it was Deputy Commander Sloane. Rulis didn’t even move a muscle before Sloane saw him. ———————————————————————————————————— Sloane aimed her shotgun at Rulis who just stood there, frozen still, paralyzed with fear. “Don’t shoot!” Tajiks said, blocking Sloane. “What the? Who are you? I had no idea that a Fallen could even become a Guardian.” Sloane said, shocked. “I’m Rulis, this is Delta, she’s my Ghost, we’re going to Mars with a package of SIVA.” Rulis said. “SIVA? What do you plan on doing with it?” Sloane said, suspicious. “We’re going to give it to Rasputin, that’s the safest bet, besides destroying it.” Tajiks decided to butt in on the conversation. Rulis and Delta went to their ship, The Evangelist, an old Fallen Skiff that was refurbished with the help of Mithrax. ———————————————————————————————————— The two set off for Mars with a package of SIVA in tow, they knew the stakes of what they were doing. They knew what they were risking, it was a gamble, what they were trying to do. ———————————————————————————————————— Yet still, what’s life without a little risk. I guess you can say that risk can sometimes lead to reward, and in other situations that risk will lead to a greater reward that what the normal route would have given. So take risks Guardians, this is Rulis signing off.
