“(...)In accordance to the Crimson Concordat, potential galactic civil conflicts would “no longer be resolved in the barbaric ways of old”. It all depends on what your definition of barbarism is, however. Have you ever seen someone getting his entire skin envelope peeled off after being exposed to G-Force currents on the race tracks? Have you ever seen a former wingman falling off the rails to his death while the horrified screams of his wife and children in the grandstands are drowned out by the cheering and laughter of a million spectators thirsty for blood and violence? My military background and mastery of G-Force travelling was the reason they hand-picked me for the race, but truth is, they needed a scapegoat. On that day, I represented the interests of my people and became a legend, a hero. Forever to be remembered for a victory that would affect the fate of a trillion souls. This is what had been said to me and to countless others. The slow realization that I was but a mere puppet came later, while diplomats reaped the benefits and used this victory to justify their greed. This isn’t a sport. It’s war, and it’s no wonder humanity is hated. All was for naught. The controversy surrounding my departure from the circuit was justified, but perhaps this will help you understand why I did so in the first place.”
-Xel’teras Errod, on his victory during the 1989 Grand Prix, Sol archives, 2001.
In the distance, floating city lights paint the horizon Metal machines race towards infinity in unison In their wake, serpentine trails of fire radiate Exceeding supersonic velocity, end of the line.
Bound for glory, fatal quest for exultation Only the bold will prevail Interstellar travellers hammer away For the race has just begun
Hovering superstructures rise through the clouds solemnly Anti-Gravitational pathways lead them to triumph Smoldering remains fill the labyrinthine city streets Challengers from unknown lands race to the death on burning wheels
Speeding phantoms drift into the stygian twilight Blazing towards victory Reaching out to the heavens in exaltation We arise and fulfill our destiny
“Onward we ride into the setting sun Standing proud and tall, forever daring Our legacy echoes through the halls of time Far beyond the realms of eternity!”
