Scene 0005

*"Oh, the glory of that day when they admitted their love to each other, when he kissed her for the first time. And as he stood absently before her his heart danced a crazy measure in his breast and his mind recalled the joy of other days. God, how soft, and warm, and yielding she was, how simple and honest, how beautiful and trusting. And with strange visceral sensations Townsend realized the happiness his pride had lost him, the glorious life, perhaps two lives or more, thrown into darkness through the blindness of pride, pride like an impassable stream standing between two souls that yearn for their fulfillment in each other's arms."*

### II. Robot Talking To Girl

From Lore Master: Staff

*"The Solverse fuses technology with humanity, and both can work together/or against each other, to bring about the end of the solverse. Another potential companion/nemesis to be dealt wtih down the road."*

### III. Star Legion

From Lore Master: EEISHERW

*"Star Legionnaires often began their training on their tenth birthday. Their tiny size allowed them to fit into smaller models of battle mechanicals, as shown in this comparison. The little girl pictured will open a hatch on the side of this machine, allowing her to crawl inside and boot up the operating system. While some in the Imperium believe this is a cruel thing to do to these children, the fact is this methodology has proven invaluable for the later stages of training. The young Legionnaire will master this, then move on to semi-autonomous hover tanks, Tartanium Bombers, and finally, they will merge with Monsoon Class Death Frigates. As they say at the academy, “Star Legion has point!” These children will win us the war."*

### IV. Eternal Bond

From Lore Master: jesstets

*"The ritual depicted within the Ethereal Living Tapestry at Din’s Cathedral is the eternal love-bonding of 2 sentient melded civilizations. Each society comprised of billions of life forms that came together as 2 separate entities. Their conjugation brought about the 11th and final age of True Enlightenment. So far…"*

### V. Solid Ground

From Lore Master: Genesis

*"Within depths of mind, she twists and turns the knife. Only dreams allow to find a gaze from a past life. Never friends, never kind, when open eyes awake. Past is past, what has been timed, we've nothing to remake. This is how the story goes, another love she feels she found. And so I seek another way to walk along on solid ground."*

### VI. Before Pure Light

From Lore Master: Genesis

*"Her eyes rose to meet those of the last living descendant of Yako. Her heart beat quicker than it had in millions of years. She felt alive again, but also she sensed that her time was ending, even tough she had bought more time... Her radiance commanded shadow. She did not know what order to give. Then, all at once, she knew what she must do. ""Take me to the Astro."*

### VII. Loyalty

From Lore Master: ChocoboX

*"Sol and her champion before they part for the final time.*

*As Finris heads once more into the fray he knows this will likely be the last time he sees her, it is with pride, loyalty and most of all love for this god that he steps into the battle again.*

*As long as she survives, then his duty will be fulfilled, the Solverse will be safe again and Luna defeated. He will die gladly, with a smile on his face and Sol in his heart."*

### VIII.

From Lore Master: Bean

*"Her radiant glow shone off his armor. Beauty stronger than the warrior.*

*How can one fight when hardly able to breathe? How can one kill when weighted by love?*

*Time to put down the blade. Time to surrender. Surprised by love for the enemy, the warrior whispered, “I am yours.”"*
