We died here by the millions, but then again, we didn't. Here we first tasted immortality, and paid for each rebirth with caved-in chests, guts spread over half an acre, breathing the scent of our own plasma-roasted flesh. We have felt blades made to hack through combat armor sneer at mere flesh and bone. We know what it is to be cracked open and wasted by machines of destruction never intended to be turned on sentient meat. We know what it is to be a suicide, and how insanely blind we have become to the act of faith that represents.
The flesh endures.
Here we watched every soul we have touched in our new lives meet the same fate, often at our own hands. Here we lost the knowing of love from hate. My enemies have become my only brothers, and we will make our fortunes at each other's throats.
You all remember - from your old lives, from before. How it was when you first came home from war. How you could have never predicted that, how you listened to the lectures and the carefully rationed advice from a few kindly vets. And so you became what you were - a dog of war, whose true home was a place that should never be named.
Now this, where in this short time, the idea of home becomes manifestly alien. Is your flesh your home?
Here. This rock. Where we were born. Where we first stood up out of the dust. Where we have learned our true strength.
From here we will leap - and tear down the gods from the sky.
We must honor it, and name it before we go. Only we have the right. Only we bear the duty.
I choose 'Ginnungagap'. What about you, Merc? |

The least we could do is jury rig a few dozen Titans together and crash them into the planet at the instant the doomsday device goes off. Oh I don't hate it. She can just be a ***** sometimes... Kind of like Eve! I change my answer. Instead of Jezebel... Lillith (Adam's first wife before Eve)
Nice, Forlorn. Sent a chill up my spine. |

OK, you got me. I feel like I should know it. Ferdinand IV? |

Ah, I suppose I haven't been paying attention, too much DUST in my eyes.
The best name I've heard so far for THIS planet is Unicorn's Boneyard. Had to edit the sparkly bits =P |

Back to Jenza's post above. When the game goes live, the beta testers from the last build are going to be the only players in EVE who have spent time in Jovian space - sure to make the pod pilots jealous. When anybody asks us about it we should just go all silent an cryptic like ^^.

Sounds about right to me. We were made as servants to the patriarchal sugar-daddies in the sky. But things wil not stay that way.
Perhaps the time is coming for New Eden to burn. |
