[Video - Transmission from Alpha Trion's Temple]

[The feed flicks on to reveal a rather furious looking boy with three white stripes on the left side of his hair, his unnatural gold eyes glowering at the camera. His chest is heaving as he struggles to restrain himself; if looks could kill, then the device would be dead five times over.]

Is this someone's sick idea of a joke?! How could anyone possibly think of doing something so twisted?!

[Of course, he must be referring to his appearance on Cybertron. Not hours earlier, he had been in Death City, speaking to his fellow classmates... It would only make sense for him to be so incensed, having been whisked away to a foreign planet!]

This marking on my shoulder! Why is there only one?! It's completely asymmetrical!

[... Or not. Even without the glyph directly visible, the very idea that he could be marked in such an unbalanced, terrible way... His skin should have rejected the ink to begin with!]

I demand to speak to the ones responsible for this atrocity!

Comments

But then it would be aligned completely on the left! It wouldn't be close to symmetrical! :(

[symmetriphiliac]

Death City is its name. The city itself isn't dead.

[How does one 'sort of' kill a planet?]

So this is an entirely separate universe? How did the First Forged manage to bring us here, then?

I know XD I was saying that we can assume his text is always center centered even if you don't do it

[deadlydoctor]

Ah. Of course.

[You don't want to know, trust me.]

Exactly. You catch on quickly at least. [Unlike some of the new arrivals.] It wasn't them, it was the Lambda. That shinny thing in the sky on top of the junk pile, it's a time-space rift.

Nah, I know. I just like it being centered. /dork

[symmetriphiliac]

Has there been any explanation for the rift's appearance?

Heh, it's okay XD

[deadlydoctor]

None so far. I don't think the FirstForged know what caused it.

[symmetriphiliac]

There is still a lot of work to be done, then. Is there any other information available about the Lambda?

[deadlydoctor]

None I know. You could try asking Liege Maximo, one of the FirstForged.

Which one is yours?

[symmetriphiliac]

Alpha Trion.

Is it possible to contact them directly?

[deadlydoctor]

Contact them? yes. If they pay you attention or not it's up to debate. You can always visit the temples and ask for an audience.

[symmetriphiliac]

Hm. They really should pay closer attention to us, given that this is their world.

[deadlydoctor]

Some of them try.

[symmetriphiliac]

I suppose that's better than nothing.
