The CMD's main weapons open fire, quickly reducing large sectors of the planet to unusable slag. Massive craters and debris are left behind, and the temperature of th atmosphere itself approaches combustion as the soldier frantically tries to come up with a plan to stop the ship. He remembers an override somewhere by the bridge, but he has to move fast, because Dolorous could still teleport him off the ship as he pleases. He resolves to shut down the AI and implant the seed program made by Dolorous before his demise into himself.

It was your mission, and now it falls to me...

He calculates his teleportation grid to the nearest possible exit point from the manual override, and flashes into action. Once in the bridge, he moves by instinct, first disabling command protocols, separating the AI's consciousness from ship control. He then retracts the seed program from the main database and uploads it into his suit.

Here goes nothing...

The ships weaponry instantly stops firing, and all is left silent once more. As soon as he placed the craft in a stable orbit, he contacted the remaining leadership of the planet and formally apologized for what happened.

I know it won't make up for what happened, but suffice it to say that it could have been worse. You will be under my protection until your cities are rebuilt and your empire stays intact. I'll have to hold you to the same standards my master once did, but other than that, you'll be free to chart your own course.

As he ended the transmission, he suddenly felt exhausted, and was barely able to force himself to his quarters before drifting off. He considered it odd, since he had never slept before, or not within his memory... When he awoke, he noticed something different about himself, though he couldn't put his finger on it.

He couldn't see it past his combat suit, but his eyes began to show the faintest glimmer within, like that of a dying star...

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

My soldiers continue to make more and more ships for me. Soon I will have an unstoppable fleet. Orbital Guns encircle the planet, assuring it's safety. Shield generators also provide more protection. Attempting to deploy ground troops would be suicidal, if not impossible. Anti-Psychic Units mill about in my well defended city (Just in case FS attacks.)

Blue Elite i will allow you to rebuild your world along side mine on New Haven. Luckly most of the cities were underground so weren't damaged. Ships begin to ferry men and supplies back to the homeplanet. Great seas have formed from the craters of the fire from the ship.

Large Orbital Guns and other defences are placed in orbit. Large no-systems are placed on the planet to make it disspear with enough range to cover the orbital guns.

As he walks about the ship, prepping systems for further use, he realizes a definite difference in his actions and thoughts. He found himself anticipating actions, events just seconds before they happened, a sort of prescience. He also found everything appeared more transparent, more open to his eyes. He could focus on things near and far, seeing everything as through a light he had not posessed before. He was wondering about these changes when he returned to the bridge and tried to discern the disembodied AI's condition. He was clearly rampant and unusable, yet perhaps useful in the future. He couldn't memory wipe him, for he held too much information about the ship and its workings. He couldn't run the ship on his own. It wasn't designed for that. He decided to copy the AI's core programming and create a new intelligence for operating at least the most mundane functions of the ship. When finished, he was suprised at himself for how familiar he was with the very controls of this craft. What once seemed foreign now seemed home... strange. When activated, the new AI promptly requested his master's name. Taken somewhat back at this, for he was never given one, he responded "Dolorous." As he said it, he realized the hidden legacy he was bound to fulfill. He realized the task he was undertaking, his destiny... He was the christened Praetor, emissary of the Jjarro. His to destroy, create, rebuild and judge. The sudden rush of realization of his power was overwhelming, yet he was brought back to reality by his own musings. He focused on the task at hand: rebuilding. He named the A.I. after an old friend of his, one forgotten memory that came to his mind for an instant before being wiped clean again by his programming: Durandal.
