An unexpected story about a Manei Domini showing some humanity.
Interesting, looking forward to more.
The hardest part of writing this chapter for me was Corden's interaction with Deback. I wanted to know if it was believeable and the people that were helping me edit this thing never made it this far. So I had to forge ahead back weeks ago and hope it worked out to most people. It seems plausible given the psychological cues and suffering Deback had experienced, that the little compassion shown by Corden might "convert him". So I have to ask anyone seeing this. Was the scene believable?
That aside, from my research into the manei domini. Yeah, they are ammoral, but they are humans that believe in a cause set forth by The Master. Apollyon definitely had this temperment where their actions in his eyes were for the betterment of humanity and he did feel some kind of remorse for those sacrificed, but the end goal was always the key and damn anyone in their way. Quest for Jardine gave me a better understanding of this notion. I think people don't give credit to the WoB as much as they should. I have found them an interesting study on why and what they did for what reason. I adopted them for my main mech force because I was going to originally do RotS but saw it was going to get ilclanned. So I adopt the ones that "killed" the setting in a way then find out there is a little bit more to them under the robes.
