The roots of war
The EVE Chronicles have been getting vastly better of late, with the influx of fiction that wraps around the Empyrean Age expansion. This latest, “The Dark End of Space” is as well nicely done. Aside from the contributions to the Empyrean storyline, I like the setup - four Admirals talking to four of their trusted Captains. A peek into the machinations of what’s to come, it seems.
And I do love this line, from an Amarr Captain:
Admiral: “Master politico-theologians say we’re experiencing a glorious sea change of unprecedented proportions, with nothing but celestial glory and heavenly fate that awaits us.”
Captain: “Theologians can suck my Apoc, sir. We’re the ones manning the guns.”
Though, to be anatomically accurate, shouldn’t that have been “…can suck my Geddon”?
