=== Recording === From the console... {{Collapse |title= ''A tall, eagle-faced man stands very still; only his eyes move over the broad crystal screen before him.''<br> "Are the [[Construct|Sentinels]] ready to be activated?" |content= “Almost, Commander,” says a younger man, his hands moving feverishly over the controls. In response, a blur of confused images appear and disappear over the console. “We received new orders this morning,” says the commander. “We have twenty-four hours to evacuate [[Hellgate|the base]].” “What about the lake?” asks the man at the console. The base commander makes an unfamiliar gesture. “We’ll blame it on the [[Qantari]].” The other man gives a low whistle. “And the [[The Temple|ziggurat]], do we give that up too?” “The ziggurat they want intact,” says the commander with a shrug. “Then why are we pulling the plug?” asks the Centurion. “That kind of intelligence is above my station,” the Commander says bitterly, "or so I've been told. Someone at the top decided the base has to go dead, so that's what we're doing. The ziggurat is a different sort of animal. That we will preserve for the worst case scenario.” The subordinate thinks about this for a moment, then asks,“Have you ever met [[Agathoth|Him]]?” “I did, once,” nods the commander, his jaw working silently while he chooses his words. “He's supposed to be on our side, but what does something inhuman care for what we want? We just happen to be on his side. For now.” “What do you mean?” The man's hands are in his lap now, the console forgotten. “He’s fighting his own war and we’re helping him to win it, not the other way around,” says the commander. “And when the war’s over?“ “My guess is that’s why they’re pulling the plug now, so we don’t have to find out the hard way,” says the commander. }} <!-- end of collapsible content -->
