The floating debris all around the area made it hard for almost everyone to move in, especially the chimeras that were trying to attack the power plants. “Here kitty kitty.” Styles swung his arm casually and a whip of nuts bolts and scrap metal slashed though several smaller monsters, taking their small communication nodes with it. They weren’t magnetic and oddly resistant to electrical interference, but that didn’t make them harder to deal with. It was the number that was the problem, not to mention the bigger ones that had to be on their way.

“Sorry, kids, but I’ve got a mad tyrant to kill.” The junkyard behind Styles began to rumble and float as he raised up his hands. With a fling of his arms the avalanche of twisted steel came flying at the oncoming horde, burying it.

“You take one more step toward my people and there’ll be hell to pay! See this hat!? What does it say!?”

Revolution Day Speeches, Part Two

Damien Styles: Union President, Resource Workers United

Styles walked up to the podium and held his baseball cap up in the air, flashing the bold red letters to the camera. Most knew the routine by now. “See this hat? What does it say!?”

“It says BOSS!” The Union workers in the crowd roared.

“What does it mean!?”

“It means you’re in charge!”

He puts the hat back on his head. “Damn right it does. I won’t worry about any other introductions. You pay your utilities; you know who I am- you’re welcome. You already know about what we’ve been doing last year. This year, I want to bring up something.”

“We still don’t have Hades yet. Believe me, I’m upset too. No empty promises from me, people- we’re getting serious now. The avalanche that hit Yard 6 over the winter came out of nowhere and our mining head just finished his survey. That thing was triggered. No points for guessing who.” He waits for the murmuring in the crowd to stop. When it didn’t, he held his hand up to the mircophone and the magnetic feedback caused a harsh shriek. “CALM DOWN! You’re talking to professionals here! I already have a plan. My promise this year is to make absolutely sure we don’t see that shit again. The Union is going to be having a trip up into the mountains to see what else we can find. We’ll be taking volunteers but ONLY the ones who make the cut. If you can’t handle the cold, don’t show up. If you can’t handle the mountains, don’t show up. If you’re afraid the dark, heights, or tight spaces, don’t show up. If you think this is going to be easy, don’t show up. If you think you’ve got what it takes, talk to Axton Walsh as soon as possible. We’re leaving no stone unturned and paying that bastard back for every life he stole. Styles out.”

Lucianna Markella: High Priestess of the Consecration of Creation

“Creation bless you all this Revolution Day.” The High Priestess was looking slightly disoriented from being that close to Styles’ magnetic shenanigans but was shaking it off well enough even after taking a moment to hold her head under her large mitre. “As you know, the tragedy that befell Smokey Gardens fell to the rest of the city to come together and help our fellow man. Truly, we were being smiled on that day. The Church can offer little in the ways of material comforts, but we keep the soul of this city alive. To that end, I would like to thank the rest of the council for helping with a grand new project. Mayor Lowell will tell you all about it. Rest assured our acolytes and priests are working tirelessly to aid the efforts. As ever, the Consecration’s doors are open to all who seek comfort and guidance without the need for membership or the pressure to purchase anything. We hope to continue to set a shining example moving forward.”

Tyrael Cheshire: CEO of Cheshire Financial Group

“Greetings. Last year’s financing of incoming foreign business has shown quite a lot of success despite some... difficulties at several of the events. However, I can assure you that the matters are still being looked into and I would like to personally extend my thanks to all the bounty hunters who helped prevent catastrophe at last year’s charity gathering. In light of this, I have extended a sizable portion of funding to a introductory training program for up and coming bounty hunters taught by some of the best in the field. As a former bounty hunter myself, I will be among those who will take on a small handful of students personally. As you know, I have always valued the potential of the next generation. This will come at no charge to you, but do understand that the slots will be few and quite in demand. We cannot guarantee entry for everyone. Please, send your inquiries to my business office.”

Flavian Lowell: Mayor of Apricus City

“Let’s hear it for the council, ladies and gentlemen!” The Mayor waited for any possible applause to die down. “Now I’m sure you’re all ready to get on with the rest of the festivities but we have one more announcement to make! As you may have seen there’s a new building being constructed in Capitol Square, right next to the main rail station. That, my good people, is an answer to the natural disasters that have hit us so recently. Every single member of the council pitched in to make it happen. May I present the opening of the Apricus City Home of Rebuilding- a council-funded shelter for victims of tragedy. Here people can stay in a safe place while they find new homes, jobs, or a place to rest should the unthinkable befall them or their loved ones. We hope to expand this to other public service as well. That said! The city is looking for volunteers and the council’s various organizations are hiring to manage its various aspects. Remember, this will be run largely by donation and while the council has pitched a substantial amount, we will be giving you, the people, and opportunity to also contribute. For any amount you donate to the shelter, you’ll receive some discounts and coupons for multiple businesses who have contributed. We hope this becomes a major stepping stone in helping our fellow citizens.

“Words cannot adequately describe how proud I am of every single one of you. It is the privilege of a lifetime to be your mayor. Now let’s ring in this Revolution Day!”
