[Video][Open to all][The Return]

[He and his party have been returning for the last few days, a ragged, shaken group who are nevertheless still alive. They are survivors, and Megatron seems to take a sort of pride in that...walking tall and steady despite an obvious limp. A few blades are slung from his back like trophies, and one or two still have alien-looking hands attached at the hilt.]

I must admit concession to whoever told me it was folly to approach the badlands.

[Here he is. Returned. He wishes he could say it was a relief.]

You were right...

...but so was I.

[He tosses a blade down, letting it imbed in the safe soil at his feet.] Their numbers are greater than ours. If they should attack at full strength, I doubt we would last long.

So why do they not attack us yet?

[He smirks, but it's a bitter smirk.] I have a theory.

We may even be able to use it to our advantage.

Those who offered their support are welcome to this information. Those who did not? Well. We're all in this together, aren't we?

[It doesn't mean he's going to tell. Not right away.]

I'll be at the Hub if anyone wants to hear our stories. If there are any medics thinking about attending...you'll be needed.

[The ones who had come along had done amazingly given the lack of facilities and traveling circumstances, and more weren't going to hurt.]

To work as a community, yes. As a whole. Because I hope you don't want to apply Darwinism to your idea of survival. Assuming you probably have no idea who Darwin is given you're an alien robot - survival of the fittest. Sound familiar?

What laws do you propose to implement? I'd like to think we'd take this as a democracy. Overseer sounds a bit too tyrannical to me. Like a done-up dictator. President has a nice, softer ring to it. But we get to vote on who those rynning, so democracy is already in action.

I just don't want to wind up with another wolf managing to wiggle in with the sheep, if you get what I mean.
