Last night I was witness to a sobering, yet amazing sight. Nearly a hundred pilots from all races came together at the Typotyl Maw in the Swooping Eagle sector to fend off the potential V'rix invasion fleet. These pilots waited, watching the Maw intently. Everyone there swore, to all they hold dear, that they would fight the hoard to their last breath to protect the people of planet Swooping Eagle. The Progen Warriors there started up a battle chant to keep everyone's spirits up. Alas, the invasion that everyone expected never came... There were mixed feelings from all. One pilot said " I'm real glad that those blasted bugs didn't show up like we thought, but dag nabit, I was lookin forward to baggin me a few of them buggers!"
Relieved that Swooping Eagle and its ever present protector, Grey Feather, were safe for another day, yet forlorn that the anticipated battle never came, the pilots bid farewell to each other and went back to their usual business. This was indeed a Bittersweet Vigilance...
