Paradise Violated

You decide that this place would be better explored with a better equipped team. You'll secure it from anyone else attempting to go inside, but you don't have the manpower or firepower to best serve the Empire's interests. When the pick up ship comes you'll report your findings.

In the mean time you tell your team to pick up their weapons, head for the exit as quickly as possible and spend the rest of your time here back at the Lizard village nearby. When you get outside you're ambushed by a small Elojin team, but they aren't any match for you, the cowards run as soon as they realize they're outnumbered. Their running doesn't help them, Salo takes special care to shoot crippling shots, rather than outright killing them, he then takes special delight of dragging them back to the Lizard village to extract more information out of them. He doesn't get too much as they don't know too much, you don't think that matters to him though.

After all the Elojin have finally died of their wounds, the rest of your stay here passes without incident, you order patrols around the structure, but nothing ever tries to enter it and nothing ever comes out.

When the Empire ship comes, you report your findings. Your superiors are pleased and say they will take it from here. You're a little disappointed, you thought maybe they'd let you lead another team in seeing as you found it, but they say you're needed elsewhere, and the Empire always knows best. They give you a medal and some accolades, but that's about it.

The Xont technology that's extracted from the building is eventually applied in fantastic ways. The Empire easily begins to turn the balance to their favor. A gripping xenophobia runs rampant throughout the Empire as it becomes even less tolerant of alien species, seeing them as being unfit to even exist. This eventually leads to the unprecedented alliance between the Krik, Mazatt and Elojin who attempt to fight back, other aliens start rallying to their banner as well. The Human Empire becomes the most feared and hated galactic superpower since…well the Xont.

As for you, after your tour on Paradise, the rest of your career was unspectacular. You remained a glorified Empire scout, until the some worlds started revolting against the Empire's policy of exterminating aliens. At that time you're relegated to a counter-terrorist command. It's on one of these worlds where you meet a suitable fate.

While storming a terrorist hideout, you're shot in the back by one of its leaders by surprise; you look up and see a blue girl that looks similar to Alyssa. You almost think it is her, but then again they all look alike to you.

"You can't win…the Empire will survive…" you say and then she fires another shot ensuring that you won't.
