"Daaaaamn," James muttered.
"That's awesome. I still want to be able to bring down a Hive Prince in a single slam."

"I couldn't do that if I had a sword bigger than Crota. Though I can boast about using a similar sword of Cabal construction against the waring legions and the Vex, mostly the latter. The Vex are the true enemy, now with the Cabal weakened and the Hive driven into the darkness of which they came from." [i]Judas seemed a little biased about fighting the Vex and placing the importance of destroying them over fighting the other, still prominent threats.[/i]

Edited by Splashback77: 2/4/2018 2:50:50 AM"Right," James replied. "You know, it it wasn't for Savathûn, the Vex wouldn't be in our system," Phoebe said.
-
"I know. Nonetheless, the sister of Oryx is a concern as well.. yet, we wondered if she had taken over the Taken yet, or not." [i]Judas clenched his fist a little, sighing.[/i] "The Fallen are uniting. The Hive infest and burrow, yet driven back for a time. The Vex continue to pursue their alternative timelines. The Cabal have been decimated. But the Taken.."
-
"The Taken..." James muttered. "The Dreadnaught... some Hive may still be hanging around there, as well as Taken," Phoebe noted.
-
"Why we don't excavate that thing more.. the place is ripe for plundering technology, especially Cabal tech. I've tried getting Ikora to initiate teams to do such a thing, with Zavala's.. disappearance."
-
[spoiler]Yeah... disappearance[/spoiler] "Zavala disappeared?" James asked, trying to sound surprised.
-
[spoiler]Yeah..[/spoiler] "Indeed. There still isn't a Titan Vanguard still, though.. many have applied for the title." [i]Judas sighed, at that.[/i]
-
"It will probably go to Sloane," Phoebe said, "Either be Sloane, Mantz, or the other Laney." "Wait, didn't the Hunter Vanguard change twice this year?" James asked, "I swear, it went from Cayde, to Mark, to Jacob Laney."
-
"It's changed, certainly. Sloane has Titan to look after.. though we may as well shell the damned place. A darkness lives within those oceans.." [i]Judas murmured, then sighing.[/i]
-
"So, are we going to nuke it? Throw Phobos into it using a gravity weapon? Blow up Saturn and use Titan as energy?" James asked, interested.
-
"I'm unfortunately not the expert on high-powered weaponry.. Though.. Phoebe, what would you consider?" [i]Judas looked up, at Phoebe then. He already prized her for her knowledge.[/i]
-
Edited by Splashback77: 1/31/2018 12:41:43 AM"Hmm. Gravity weapon... depends on the Velocity of Phobos..."
-
"As long as we evacuate the Guardians upon Phobos and ensure that the nearby worlds are not effected.." [i]Judas noted, as something of a reminder.[/i]
-
"Right. I know Firebase Thuria houses crucible matches," Phoebe nodded.
-
"Exactly. Hmm.." [i]Judas murmured, sighing.[/i] "No matter. I doubt the Vanguard would initiate anything too.. drastic."
-
Delphi floated around, bored. James noticed his Ghost being so idle, "Anything wrong, Delph." "Just... trading data with Ganymede..." the Ghost replied. Phoebe looked to the Delphi with a concerned expression, "You really miss playing Dungeons and Dragons with Lunar and Puma, don't you?" The buttery voice of the Ghost echoed, "Yeah...."
-
"I suppose that this Lunar and Puma were close, then? Unfortunate, since my Ghost is.. where is Archimedes, anyhow?" [i]The reminder of Ghosts had then brought up Judas' own Ghost, whom had been gone for some time.[/i]
-
Edited by Splashback77: 2/4/2018 2:56:03 AM"Lunar is closer to me than Puma," Delphi replied, "Unfortunately, he's kinda... bit wrong, in the shell..." "So you know who Sarah Grey is, but you don't know Lunar," James asked.
-
"Sarah Grey is difficult to [i]not[/i] know, considering her heroics and tales. But a Ghost is not, even though they're arguably the most important asset we have.."
-
"He holds a valid point," Phoebe noted. "Yes, the question goes from [i]Do you know?[/i], to [i]How much do you know?[/i]" Delphi replied. "I'm getting sick of hearing her name," James muttered. "Next time, don't date a badass who is famous," Delphi advised. "Yes, now to that question: Judas, how much [i]do[/i] you know?" Phoebe questioned.
-
"About Sarah, or the Ghost? I never knew Sarah Grey personally. Doubt I did, anyway. She may have known me in the Crucible for wiping teams with one slam, or a signature strategy of mine, against the wall with a machine gun, mowing down enemy attackers as I held the point. I don't think I ever fought against her, either, though.. an individual dressed in her garb did duel me once. A fangirl, I'd suppose. Azra.. she seemed to enjoy Sarah. Didn't know her. But she told me about her, certainly. Then she went into that Vault, and.." [i]Judas fell silent then, sighing as he caressed his chin.[/i] "Forgive me. My rambling self takes over, at times."
-
"I don't need to worry if he knows to much," Phoebe muttered. "Okay... good, because there's sides of her you don't want to see... and also... I think Phoebe's hiding something," James replied.
-
"Warlocks tend to hide their secrets and knowledge within vast minds, just as Titans hide their stratagems and emotions with thick plates of armor, and Hunters conceal their riches and tales with hidden troves. Let her keep hiding whatever it is," [i]Perhaps Judas was just oblivious, or.. had a point.[/i]
-
Phoebe applauded him. "Good job, Judas. Good speech. You'd be an orater."
-
"...Could I?" [i]Judas seemed to put some thought into it, certainly.[/i] "Writing speeches and articles.. hmm. Interesting. Intriguing, even. It seems.. ironic, though, that a Titan would go down such a past. Perhaps that was.. whatever I wished to do, when I was once mortal, and alive? A reporter of some kind.. or an editor, even a speechwriter."
