“That was beautiful.” Vivima assures you with a sincere smile, taking the headset from you and taking your place in the seat as you stand up. It’s her turn now. Brushing her dark purple hair back with both hands, she takes a deep breath and then reaches out to press the broadcast button. Leaning toward the microphone, she speaks in a velvet tone, lovely and soft… no one will tune away from this broadcast.
“People of the Earth Sphere, I am Vivima Zabi. I speak as one with Felix Zos Deikun today, as our families are now one, and all our fellow cadets who will speak after us.” Vivima begins amicably, turning to you for a moment with a kind smile, “Here with us we have assembled cadet representatives from Earth, Luna, nearly every Side, and even the Jupiter and Martian colonies. Though our peoples have so often seen ourselves as divided, <span class="mu-i">even now</span> we have begun to act as one - not in name only, as the Federation does, but in <span class="mu-i">truth!</span>. We are united as cadets at this academy, but we were all brought here by a common belief: That together we can create a brighter future for all mankind, within the Earth Sphere and beyond.”
As she continues speaking, you begin to realize that she is not just talking about newtypes or Contolism, but Ereism as well - a surprisingly kindred spirit, “This precious solar system of ours, the greatest gift given to us by providence, is bountiful beyond imagination! It holds limitless potential, far beyond what even mankind’s sacred cradle, Earth, once held before she was ravaged by industry and stripped of so much of her natural beauty. If we strive together as one, there is wealth and plenty among the stars. If the shackles of gravity and the old ways of thinking can be cast off then we need never again be driven by fears of overpopulation or scarcity! Look to the colonies and Luna today, even upon the surface of Mars, and see the prosperity we have forged from adversity! Though great struggles persist, every year we work together to improve the conditions in which we live, even as the Federation continues to use us as a dumping ground for its excess population and a crutch to hold up its inefficient industry - We welcome those cast aside by the Earth with open arms. New colonies are constructed every year so you might live with us as one.”
