Nightmare of the Void

Saturn, moon of Titan

Children on Hayden clan dojo

In orbit of the Moon titan near the northwestern hemisphere of Saturn floated three connected Orokin towers, housed with in theses vast orbital structures lived the fifteen thousand strong clan known as the Children of Hayden, named after the original Tenno, Hayden Tenno. as one of the largest they held a great responsibility to defending the remaining free colonies the dotted the Origin systems. Within these towers, markets flowed with the wares of merchants and traders who sought out this clan. There were traing halls were new and experienced Tenno honed their skills, including a particular Rhino Tenno, known for his skill and the Blue, Green, red color scheme he employed made him well known and feared amongst the Corpus and the Grineer a like. However for this on Tenno his life was about to change, as his next mission would change the fate of the whole system for better or for worse.

Tower 2 Chamber of the Elder council

walking at a casual pace a lone Tenno made his way to the Towards the Elder council passing the ornate white and gold adorned hallways that made up the typical Orokin architecture, that was common of the long dead empire. Reaching the doors he passed through moving to the center of the circular room, where the clan elders sat on three rows of elevated seats.

"I have come as requested" He said taking a knee before them

"We thank you for coming paladin, this assignment that we require you for is a first amongst the Tenno" Said a female tenno clad in the Ember frame. "What we are about to tell you is for you alone to know"

"I am listening" Kal said shifting around in side his Rhino frame.

"One of our operatives has found a rather if not strange piece  of Grineer research," the Ember tenno went on " Apparently not three days ago a Night watch galleon captured a non human being, who all we know about it is that it refers to itself as Nightmare Moon"

"And you want me to rescue it, didn't we already have enough problems with extraterrestrial species of have you forgotten the sentients" Kal retorted "Are we still not trying to rebuild into a prosperous society"

a loud metallic clang was heard as a Fragor was slammed onto the pedestal of a Atlas clad tenno. The said tenno retracted his helmet showing a weathered and scarred face of a man.

"There will be order in this council!" He said before casting a stern gaze at Kal "You are one of our most honored Rhino's, you have brought peace and hope to the remaining free colonies, yet your hatred of the sentient, has made you distrusting of the possibility of meeting new species."

Kal did not change his demeanor yet he maintained his stoutness as he listened to the elder, he knew better then to challenge their judgement yet he wanted to argue about making contact with a new species, did the elders really forget what happen with the sentient's, yet perhaps they were right, maybe it was the hatred of them that caused Kal to believe that all non-human races were bad.

"Now you've been chosen because of your knowledge of Nightwatch corp tactics and because you alone have made the Grineer fear you more then any other Tenno, even those who still foolishly follow that thing that dare calls its self Lotus." The elder said a strong venomous tone permeated through out the room at the mere mention of those the clan now called the great deceiver.

This time a different elder spoke his voice filled with the sound of death for he was a Nekros tenno, one of the harbingers of death

"You will find more information has be sent to your cephalon Ordis, he shall brief you on this task" He said his helmet retracted into his frame showing his pasty white complexion as was common with all Nekros tenno.

"Very well My elders your will shall be done" Kal said as he stood "May Hayden watch over me" At that he left the council chamber heading to the landing bay. Meanwhile, still within the council chamber.

"Chara you did not tell him the alien was a female and had equine traits" The Nekros elder spoke

"No Eldrathane I did not, it is my decision that Di'garo learn this on his own, perhaps when he discovers this he may not judge all non human races as inherently evil" Chara the Ember Tenno said, Eldrathane knowing her reasoning was sound chose not to argue the point.

"I understand may, Di'garo have success with this mission." Eldrathane said.

Else where Kal Di'garo had returned to his liset reading the briefing on his mission and set sail through the void of space towards the galleon in-aware that he would find something beyond a new species. he would find a friend and maybe someone to love.
