[Video]

[primianpolarity]

The video opens to white walls. What seems like the interior of Prima's temple, for anyone who's ever been there, but recognizable by design only. It's a room that's never been seen before by any Refugee.

In the background, voices can be heard murmuring. Some familiar, some not. One a deep, resonant growl - another smooth like oil. Prima's the one facing the camera, but behind him many of the other the Firstforged can be seen, apparently wrapping up a meeting of some sort...

...including one or two who haven't been seen before. One, wrapped in what looks like an energy sphere vanishes quickly in a flash of light, spacebridging away - of another, only a set of what look like steel, pleated wings are visible.

"We know many of you have questions about the...recent happenings," Prima begins, folding his hands behind him - the camera source seems to be from something other than his personal systems. "In the interest of efficiency, we invite you to ask them in a more direct manner."

"Remind me," an off-screen voice murmurs, utterly humorless, "To reinforce the defenses on my Temple. I don't want another one of your...creatures...messing up the place again."

Nexus, barely visible - even with his greater bulk - shrugs. "They're more than just 'creatures', and they're really not that bad, once you get to know 'em, I promise. So long as they're Marked..."

Prima briefly glances to the two arguing, then reaches forward to end the transmission.

[He is very, very lucky that Vector can do that, indeed.]

Ofcoursesiretakeallthetimeyouneed.

[He's quite impressed at the pulling-people-back-from-the-death thing, no lie.] That's amazing _{and something I'm really} grateful for sir.

The CALL is Unicron doing right? Any reason why it was so strong a few days ago?

There must be a way to _stop it.

[Cute, Vector.]

Ohhhhhh...are ^they shy?

[vectorianpolarity]

Grateful, but...please, do not rely upon it. It is a strenuous task and not always possible. Some of the others think it a waste of effort, but...you are precious to us, and we would keep you, if we could.

Perhaps not so much 'shy' as...they do not find an interest in you. [he shrugs slightly. their loss. but...there's one more question, and he grows serious.]

There must be - it is only a matter of time before we find it, and stop it. Most likely by purging the Badlands themselves. I imagine it was strong, because...well...

...I believe Unicron was calling for an army.

[raceme]

I will avoid dying as MUCH as I can thank you and I will try to stop others from suffering that destiny sir.

I'm not interesting at all so that's fine in my books. [Said quite matter-of-factly.

Blurr fowns slightly, thinking.] So if we purge the Badlands we could stop this? Him _{and his soon} to be army?

[vectorianpolarity]

[Vector nods slowly]

If we purge the Badlands, if we can finish our purification and preparation of this world...we can end the threat of Unicron, and more so, have all the time and power to devote to returning those who wanted to go back home. Or, for those who wanted to stay...for them to begin a civilization.

[raceme]

We will try our best then.

Uhm...I can't return home.

[vectorianpolarity]

Mm.

...why not?

[raceme]

Cheetor told me what happened to me AND well I'm _{nor dead} not. alive...TurnsoutthatShockwavemanagedtocrushmeintoacube. [He's still has troubles thinking aobut it, forgive the rushed words.]

I rather stay here.

[vectorianpolarity]

...grievous news. But...for what it is worth. You would have a place here for as long as you would like it.

[raceme]

Thank you sir IT'S good to know I still might have a place to be.

[vectorianpolarity]

There is no 'might' about it. I hope you've found yourself comfortable?

[raceme]

AH..yes sir I am comfortable _most of the time. But there's also SO many problems lately.

[vectorianpolarity]

...unfortunately. It is my hope they will lessen, and soon.
