Snippet #2561450

Lekan was just as terrified as anyone else when the blackout hit. It was impossible for every single generator on the planet to suddenly cease functioning like that, and none of the major galactic powers were looking to start another war... which could only mean that this GEHENNA person was serious about laying waste to the entire galaxy.

At least one good thing was the fact that GEHENNA was willing to wait for the inhabitants of Stratevaria to muster some sort of retaliation. Heroes rise in times of despair, he said. Lekan was reminded of last night when he overheard a few adventurers swapping stories in one of the taverns. While certainly dangerous, it did sound pretty exciting... but maybe the safest thing to do was evacuate the planet and get as far away from Megido as possible? Regardless, it was clear that he had to reach the space elevator leading to Nebulon's orbital shipyards as soon as possible.

However, such a task looked to be easier said than done; practically everyone else had the same thing in mind, be they warriors or refugees, and as vast as the interstellar ships were, they could only take so many people. Seeing how congested the streets were, Lekan had little choice but to take to the air and start heading towards the monolithic space elevator. He had no intention of being left behind on Nebulon, that much was certain.
