Mars Elysium Planitia West of the Elysium Mons volcano The sinister powder brought to bare by a Martian sandstorm could be considered far more dangerous than any Cabal rocket round. Fine enough to get into everything and coarse enough to do a lot of damage once it’s there. When whipped about by super-high winds, the sand […]

The Legend of Titan Ish-Kaneel Part 1
Could it be? No. He had been dead for many years. The Ghost moved towards the body of a dead Titan. He had been collecting data for the Vanguard in Old Russia, but he never thought that he would find this. “czzk– Another dead one. -czzk“ The Ghost moved closer to the guardian […]
The Legends, Part Two
“The Fallen have set up significant anti-air defenses within Arkhangelsk,” Tesni Jarmila’s Ghost briefed her enroute. “We lost one Jumpship already, though its pilot survived, and another two Guardians are currently pinned somewhere within the city ruins. Whatever Nordavia was doing there it clearly has the Fallen interested,” “Any more reinforcements coming or is it […]
The Legends, Part One
Tesni Jarmila blinked. The scene before her: an island shore, crashing waves, and washed up bits of wreckage large and small… It all made some sort of sense… didn’t it? The tall, blue-skinned woman took in and released a series of shaky breaths as she looked a little to her left, then a little to […]
Last Ones Standing, Part One
Ancient, collapsed, derelict, green, wet. All that remained of Old Chicago was a tangle of decaying ruins squatting in a swamp. The city was no longer one, now it was a swamp, and as old as it was, Old Chicago could not compare to The Last City; a haven for all that remained of the […]

Revival of the Past
Leon set down the assault rifle he had been carrying the last hour-and-a-half before sitting down among the debris. He still had another hour to go, judging by his map. At the moment, he was in some kind of dam control structure on the Nile, left over from the Golden Age. Outside, it was lush; […]
The Vanguards of Dead Orbit – Chapter Four
As the Fireteam walk through the illuminated doorway the change in temperature is almost immediate. “Whoa, even if we don’t find anything it was worth the trip just to get out of that sun for a while” muses the warlock. “You need to stay focused, we don’t have any clue what we could find in […]
The Vanguards of Dead Orbit – Chapter Three
Six Months Previously. The hunter stands to attention in front of a wide desk. “You sent for me Commander?” “I did, I’ve just received a Vanguard level scouting mission, you and your team are to leave within the hour” replies the Commander, seated at his desk. The hunter notices various maps and reports scattered across […]
