Since FFN's a bit wonky lately I've decided to post the first six chapters onto this thread for the sake of archival purposes so that I can have a redundant backup in case things go down south.

"Humanity, a race forged in the complex interactions of war and peace, of bliss and suffering. The Citadel, once great and mighty, now prideful, arrogant, and haughty, the sacrifices of which their foundations had been forged in forgotten to the passage of time. When an ill-fated expedition to open a dormant relay introduces the two together, the consequences...can be catastrophic."

CW: PTSD, depression, hand-to-hand combat and bayonets. I strongly recommend not for children
