They executed our brothers like rabid dogs. Humiliated and disposed, their breathless corpses lie suspended as a reminder to all who stray from the mandate of the empire.

All the mocking faces in the crowd wilfully ignore the hardships we endured so far away from home. We were merely pawns in their game. The comforts they enjoy as they look down on us are only due to us doing their dirty deeds.

We managed to escape, but we will never forget what they put us through. A mere whisper of our crew will make them shiver.

The mark they brandished us with will fade to dust when we finally meet our end. But the mark we will leave in history will ring through the centuries.
