Sanguine Massacre, Pt 3
The Gold Justicar swallowed back any fears she had and advanced towards Orsethii. Although she had extreme reservations towards facing off against a Reborn, her duty overrode everything else. Decades of conflict had honed her into a deadly and powerful combatant that few could rival.
Of course, her power armor helped close any gaps between them as well.
“By the code of the Justicars,” she told Orsethii, “I command you to stand down. Any assault made against the Emperor is immediately punishable by death.”
“Ah, yes, another fine tradition,” Orsethii retorted. “It’s a bit interesting to me that my traditions aren’t worth anything, while yours are worth everything.”

The fighting down below was still incredibly fierce. The Sanguine Fundamentalists had concentrated on sections of a few walls and literally blasted short tunnels through them. Many had even begun to charge through the breaches, but typically met concentrated defensive fire from all of the security forces behind the walls.Despite the fissures, the majority of the fighting still occurred just outside the high walls. Out there, the streets had been filled with tens of thousands of armed and armored Sanguine Fundamentalists, all of whom screamed bloody murder.It was all so chaotic and messy and completely out of their capacity to deal with that almost no-one even noticed the explosions far above their heads.Hell, it was so far away that they couldn’t even detect them - they had their own explosions and gu

Five Years LaterTowering flames engulfed nearly a quarter of the city. Its once-beautiful skyline had become jagged and uneven and blackened with soot. Many of its tallest buildings had been turned into its largest piles of rubble instead.More critically, many of the city’s blocks had been utterly flattened by crashed warships. There was a cruiser, a handful of destroyers, and a dozen frigates all scattered everywhere. Each of them tore up massive swaths of the city and left huge craters and trenches wherever they fell.Their hulls were split open and exposed, which revealed the shattered and mangled interiors. It didn’t matter if the ship was from the Hegemony or the Empire, the result was the same.Also scattered throughout the city were the wrecks of hundreds of fighters and

Gaea, Sol System, Core Sector, Sol FederationIt was the same in almost every city across Gaea, whether it was Tokyo or Shanghai or Istanbul or Paris or New York. Billions of people all over the planet took to the streets and skyways of their home cities, and angrily protested at the galaxy at large.In London, the people had packed the streets down below with so many bodies that all foot traffic was all but halted.Up above them, fleets of hoppers did the same for the skyways above. They too clogged their pathways between buildings and all but ensured that the city’s economy ground to an absolute halt. Not a single commercial or industrial or otherwise “productive” vehicle could get through.The swarm of civilian hoppers literally crowded around commercial vehicles an

He was joined by his wife and two children, happily.They had spent many years in the same habitat, through thick and thin, and grew into it nicely. Before, all they had were bare walls and sparse furnishings. Now there were shelves full of knick-knacks, souvenirs, trinkets, and random memories.The walls had all kinds of art displayed on them, and the corners had beautiful drooping plants growing out of tall pots. There were also thin carpets that circled around the main room’s wall, which gave the space an incredible amount of coziness.Though they didn’t have much,

Dendrus IV, Purgatory System, Great House de JardinThe planet was, as it had been for the past century, a pure black void invisible to everything. It was like a planet-sized black hole that wasn’t a black hole at all. It didn’t suck anything into it by some massive gravity well.But anything that fell down to it was certainly lost, just like a black hole.It was a lifeless rock whose pitch black surface was completely still, as though it was a massive globe of ink, floating serenely out in the galaxy.Any who looked directly at it were deeply unsettled to the core. It felt to them as though they were looking at something that both existed and never existed at the same time.It came with a severe sense of finality that ever

An Imperial mecha squadron skated across the industrial city. Or rather, the ruins that used to be an industrial city. Everything all around them from the largest fabrication bays to the smallest machine sheds had been completely annihilated.Their coral facades and armor plating had been cut apart and blown wide open, usually from the top down. Whatever structures inside had also suffered equal amounts of damage and had been wrenched open.Very few walls and structures were even upright and whole - most had been shattered and broken and collapsed outright.More critically, whatever weapons of war that were being created in each of the buildings were also blasted apart. Numerous hovertanks had been splayed open and blasted apart. Others had their frames and parts reduced to useless debris.

The fleet was out in the middle of Imperial space, far from any settled or civilized systems. It was composed of hundreds of light cruisers and frigates, as well as thousands of heavy fighters and mecha.They weren’t there to rearm or regroup or repair. All they did was simply sit there.Or rather, all they did was monitor critical communications all throughout the Empire. They weren’t looking for any meaningful content in the communications themselves, of course. All they wanted to know was if any communications were happening at all.More importantly, if comms stopped, anywhere.Orsethii stood on the bridge of the lead cruiser. Her eyes narrowed as she scoured the countless holoreports that hovered all around her. In it were mere hints of Ra’ventrii a
