Terran Republic call to arms

People of the Terran Republic. Today, as thousands of our brothers and sisters fall on the battlefield, let us recall the reason why we fight and die for the Republic. Four hundred years. Four hundred years has humanity stood together as one people, united under our peaceful banner. Do they, the New Conglomerate and Vanu Sovereignty scum, not recall those terrible wars on Earth? The nuclear winter? Where differences between great nations almost wiped the human race off the face of the planet? How disunity almost tore our entire civilisation to shreds? From the ashes of the conflict on Earth, our forefathers gave us democracy, law, justice. Was that not enough?! Now the New Conglomerate and Vanu Sovereignty want to split our culture into pieces once again. And look where their disunity has brought us! War and conflict, once again! Why do they wilfully ignore those lessons that we repeat again and again tirelessly, these traitors that supposedly fight for ‘progress’ and ‘freedom’? Have they learnt nothing from our benevolence? Only we, those loyal to the glorious Terran Republic, remember those lessons now, the only guardians of humanity and civilisation remaining on Auraxis. The New Conglomerate want freedom?! Hah! Do not be fooled – their freedom means a clean slate, an eradication of everything a just society stands for, disposing of centuries of culture and history as if they were old rags. And in service of their corporate masters! Have they forgotten the tragic story four hundred years old, where militant corporations, more powerful than nations, wielded their mercenary armies across Earth, subjecting desperate peoples to enslavement and poverty? Of course they have. The workers of the New Conglomerate homelands have been brainwashed by their corporate overseers to vie for ‘freedom’, when freedom is what we already had! Now they behead their Terran benefactors and blood flows like rivers in the mining towns. And what is left behind for them? Nothing. Anarchy. No government, no justice. Only mob rule, brazen criminality and subservience to corporate paymasters. This is New Conglomerate freedom, my brothers and sisters. This is what they want. And the Vanu Sovereignty, with their false sense of ‘progress’. It was not enough for them to work with us to pursue research based on respect for human life, for the benefit of mankind. Instead they conducted research in secret facilities, committing atrocities on ignorant human subjects with ‘clean-slate’ respawn technology, turning our citizens to brainless automatons, or creating monstrous aberrations with genetic modification. We told them, we begged them to stop the experiments… What other response could they expect from a moral people than to demand that they stop for the good of humanity until they can prove these technologies to be safe?! But that didn’t stop them. It just spurred them on. They insisted that we abandon our humanity and become mutants! Pursuing impossible dreams of greatness among the stars with the Vanu race, they chose to sacrifice all that makes them human! Can’t they see what they are doing? How they are twisting their minds and bodies into monsters in the pursuit of some unachievable ideal?! We cannot allow this to happen to the Auraxian people, we will not! Both of those wretched factions vie for the complete destruction of our civilisation! We must stop them! As the last defenders on humanity on Auraxis, we must defend our history, our culture until we can regain contact with our brothers and sisters on Earth. Our sacrifices, our strong laws, we endure them because we are the only force for good standing between the dark forces of chaos and madness! That is why we fight, my brothers and sisters. Work hard in the factories. Fight hard on the battlefield. We will overcome. Stand together united, remember where we come from, and we shall be victorious! Loyalty until death!
