FLAME - The Scouting Of Polaris

I pulled my cloak tighter about me to protect myself from the harsh weather of Polaris. Tandy and I had been wandering around the small town throughout the day searching for a place to construct the new town hall. So far no spot looked promising enough. Snow covered almost every inch of the town and it was hard to see what the land was really like beneath the layers of snow. As we came into the city center we decided to sit down and take a break. I pulled off my pack and sat down on a bench, "I dont know how I am going to get used to the cold weather around here." Tandy sat down and looked around at the people going about their business on the streets, "The cold is only a minor inconvenience in the grand picture." I smiled and thought back to our purpose for coming here, "There aren't many good spots that we could construct the town hall." "But we must find a place for us and the people to gather... they are as much a part of this as we are." I nodded and looked around, "Perhaps we might have to make do with one of the spots we have already looked at." Remembering how bad the places were that we looked at earlier I added, "Although we will have to dig it out some." "This is true... which place did you have in mind?" I stood up and pointed in a western direction, "The one near the lake, there wasn't as many buildings around it. It would allow us more space to construct the town hall." She looked off to where I was pointing and smiled, "It was a good area, central to all those living in the village." I threw my pack over my shoulder and looked back to Tandy, "Shall we take another look then?" She stood up and we headed back towards the area near the lake.

Returning to Titan Valley

Its been a long time since I was last in Titan Valley. I can still hear the screams of my family and friends as the Vectorians invaded our homes. My parents forced my sister and I to hide so that we would not be killed. We had to hide in an alley while the vectorian soldiers barged into my home that I was raised in and murder my parents. As fast as they came, they left to find their next victims. I remember sitting on this very hill overlooking the valley and watching the smoke rise up from the ashes of the only place I had ever known. The word of taking the valley back from the Vectorians that was going around town had brought back these terrible memories and I knew there was only one way I could put them to rest. I had put my weapons away, not wanting to ever shed the blood of anyone again. Yet now they are back in my hands, ready to repay the Vectorians for the damage they have caused me.
