And this weapon was why the Mizarians were communicating with us now. The final image of the transmission simply showed the projected trajectory vector of the relativistic weapon. Then a set of coordinates that would put the RAIN far away from any of their colonies. Then a scrolling countdown, no more than a day given.
But for a time, I didn’t even notice those last two items.
I simply watched. I looked upon one of the weapons which had burned my homeworld, pointed at the fragile light of Sol once more. I looked upon it, and I wept.
>VII: THE CHARIOT. BEGIN MOVING THE RAIN TOWARDS THE COORDINATES. Some terms are not negotiable.
>XIII: DEATH. CONTINUE THE CURRENT COURSE. Perhaps the vehicle is not yet finished. Perhaps they will not remove their only leverage. Perhaps one impactor will not be enough.
>XIV: TEMPERANCE. CONSULT WITH MERRYGATE. There is something more we should consider. And her avatar is incandescent with something beyond rage.
