In the silence, if you listen closely.... The muttered curses.... The feverish clatter upon tired keyboards... A new version, one called 42 is in the midst of being born...

The Colonial Bureaucrats have came such a long way in such a time frame as has the Empire. Although I do fear something is among us. Something powerful and strong. I can feel it....hear it....the whispers. My hand is always shaking, ready at the hilt of my sword. I shall always be ready to defend our colonies.....for the queen, for the empire, for the cog! (Is it really a year already? My goodness haha )
