====== Silent Hunter (Extrapolation Rewind) ====== {{ :divergent:hc-extraprew.png?200|}} **Divergent Universe**\\ You are falling. Gravity tears at your body as you grit your teeth, waiting for the landing capsule's indicator to decrease. Camouflaging yourself as a harmless asteroid is the only way to bustle through the Khorgahar Imperial Army's blockade.\\ Tightening your suspenders, only seven tubes of life-support tincture and an anti-jamming device can be squashed into the extremely crammed suitcase. > **You:** Eject away. **Divergent Universe**\\ Apparently, success rates for ejected landings are only about 8.2%, which is far lower than traditional landings like spaceship soft landings, parachutes, or hang-gliders... that is, so long as there's no laser grid combing the night sky.\\ The Imperial Army claim that a horde of bloodthirsty devils lurk in the southern mountain ranges of Khorgahar. They are beastly to behold, boasting dozens of limbs and heads, and can obliterate towns with their consumption bombs.\\ But your intuition informs you otherwise, as one of them fails to make a sound — and you don't want to believe a tyrant. So, you intend to try and take a gamble, wanting to meet those monsters and to record an act of violence with your own life. > **You:** Violence from the demons. > **You:** Violence from the Empire. **Divergent Universe**\\ As you move at a high speed, your eyes discern that the trail of smoke in the distance is drawing nearer — as if warfare were steaming towards you, rather than you speeding towards it. It drifts along the bright exterior wall of the imperial city and permeates into the scorched earth.\\ You see someone waving to you, a future friend. They look a little rough around the edges, exhausted, but still smiling. > **You:** This may just be my destiny. > **You:** This is exactly what I'm looking for. **Divergent Universe**\\ Ignoring the mud that splashed all over you as you landed, you hurry towards them to take a photo. No matter if you survive the war or not, the truth will be recorded so that it can be circulated one day.
