It has been countless years since the Guardian Master had been woken from its slumber. Long ago, mercenaries, adventurers, and civilians would be summoned to its presence. Those who were worthy, it would be told.

“That’s for me to decide,” it muttered under its cold mechanical breath.

The Summoned, were not in its gaze, yet. But it could feel them. Founts of power brought to the known worlds of Novus, Proxima, Genesis, Stargazer and tempered in the heat of the endless war. It could feel their rage, their hatred, and their resolve. The sieges are over: cities have been decimated, and entire squads were either trampled on or trampled others themselves. It was now time for judgment, of who truly will be worthy.

“These ones are new bodies, but some are old souls,” it said to itself. “This could get interesting.”

“Those who are worthy? We shall see. Soon. It’s been so long since I saw violence in the Arena. Blood and oil will flow once again.”

It shook off the ice of neglect and time, the metal body once again breathing. It was the time for reckoning, and it will be the judge.

“Those who are worthy? Prove it.”

The Guardian Master could also sense a new world, aflame and red. The other Guardian Masters would be pleased, it thought.

“You’ll have your time. Before then, there will be judgment.”
