| Water would serve as ammunition for their ice-shard weaponry. |
| The Ironclad
|
| pursued them for the final stand. |
| Who will be victorious?]
|
| This is war!
|
| «Anger turned our flesh to steel, And our hearts have coalesced to fire!
|
| Burning for the infinite light; |
| Extropian life expires!»
|
| — Kale, Dreadnaut Captain
|
| «(Kill them all!) Living lives of crime and hate!
|
| (Kill them all!) Darkness in its purest form!
|
| (Kill them all!) Death will come to disciples of the night!»
|
| — Lux, Ironclad General
|
| «Ironclads, Do not falter!
|
| We were born to be humans! |
| It is our birthright, given to us by God!
|
| You dare to question the reign of God?
|
| Who forged this Earth! |
| Who gave it Order! |
| Meaning! |
| And even Faith
|
| To thousands of years of humanity!
|
| And it is all now questioned, by You!
|
| My people are now slaughtered, by You!
|
| …An abomination!
|
| We are The Blood! |
| We are God’s Right Hand!
|
| And you will never dictate to us how we are to be!»
|
| — Joh, Ironclad King
|
| «Those around me feel pride in our victory, yet I cannot share in their joy
|
| I see hundreds dead on the ground, bleeding out with what I know is the same
|
| blood…
|
| Yet we fight and kill as two forces divided…
|
| Struggling to dominate for our own glory, and not for the greater!
|
| And what is left? |
| What can we call a prize?
|
| We have killed our own kind, for they were too different to unify…
|
| Their loss today will bring revenge, meaning no end to our state of bloodshed!
|
| Our smiles will someday be wiped away with the blood of a fallen brother!»
|
| — Lumo, Enlightened Ironclad
|
| «This is War; |
| Tearing us apart!
|
| Will there be no end?»
|
| — Kruhl, Ironclad General
|
| «Ironclads, Stand strong! |
| Our enemy makes a final stand…
|
| Lives will be lost, but we must hold tight!
|
| Now march forth, and let the blood fly!»
|
| — Kale, Dreadnaut Captain
|
| «Losing my sanity… Hating everything
|
| My eyes mutate, turning from blue to black; |
| Iris of death!
|
| I have become, the child of hate I try not to be!
|
| I can’t take it, this is not me, this is a loss not a victory!
|
| We must turn back!
|
| This is unjust!
|
| Take me away!
|
| We are children of light! |
| How can we fight?
|
| How can we kill our kind?!»
|
| — Terros, Disgruntled Ironclad
|
| «Fret not, your cause is just. |
| This is not murder, this is retribution!
|
| They will retreat, and then we will have our peace!»
|
| — Kale, Dreadnaut Captain
|
| For when your lines grow weak… We will… We will…
|
| Send the tremors of all destruction…
|
| To the end of Time and God
|
| …And God."
