Fire and Ruin

…... the vision is hazy and indistinct, but there can be no question - it is …, our capital.The major cities look different yet recognizable, even through the obscuring wall of flames and smoke. Thousands... no, millions of dismantled units litter the streets, all of them …. We are surrounded by destruction. YOUR FUTURE. Nothing functional remains in the ruins. In the sky above, massive orbital installations, trailing smoke, have begun a slow and inevitable descent towards the planet. Are we receiving one possible future out of many?NOT ONE OF MANY. IT SHALL COME TO PASS. AS SURELY AS THE SUN RISES. IT IS YOUR DESTINY. The vision ends as quickly as it began, leaving behind a miasma of swirling psionic energy.
