++The H.E.L.M., The Last City
**The Guardian approaches a radio terminal and activates it.
Caiatl: Commander Zavala. I thought to contact you directly, free from the prying interests of… advisors.
Caiatl: When I was a child, listening to stories of the Cabal’s many rulers, I imagined that sovereignty was absolute power.
Caiatl: The power to triumph. To spill blood. To rule.
Caiatl: But now, I realize the ironic truth: sovereignty is a form of servitude.
Caiatl: As empress, my people’s will comes before my own.
Caiatl: That is why Cabal forces cannot leave the Sol system empty-handed.
Caiatl: After losing Torobatl, we cannot lose our honor. It’s the only thing we have left.
Caiatl: You offer an alliance as equals. But I offer something even more valuable: exaltation.
Caiatl: Within our ranks, the Guardians will be revered. They will be free, as the Psions are now.
Caiatl: They will be our most elite force — the pride of the Cabal Empire.
Caiatl: So, for the last time, join us. For revenge against the Hive. For survival against the Darkness.
Caiatl: Join me. Join the Cabal.
