Most who are at the top rarely get to hear about those in the bottom. The in-betweens are the ones who typically hear the most. But one top man, if you could call him a man, still lurks in the shadows of the dead. His name lurks in the shadows of the mouths of the living. Running his name in archives that store data in xetabytes returns me to one place - the USSP.

One of the lesser-known factions, they have mostly lived isolated from the rest of the world, engaging in pitiful fanaticism over ideas of the past in the dark of our graves.

The man Jarek hails from there. Stories of how he stole a prototype flying tank and shot his way out, only to return in times of need where the odds are merciless, have been repeated over so many cycles that my triphasic scanners are still stuck counting and processing. His admirable valor only serves to amuse me further in my research of his past as a spy and as a commander. To meet such a man would be a worthy investment for every nanosecond spent.
