In reply to: Dark Star 's message, "Dark Star followed Mercado and 'Hawk to the lift" on 20:11:27 07/26/01 Thu

He looked away as Darkstar asked her question, his expression hidden in shadow. It was his partner who answered for him.

"No.

And yes.

Painful to hear for Ebonhawk, and Mercado not want bombard Darkstar with origin story. Yet important is query and ignore it not can Mercado.

Pain fades. Process done by Ebonhawk himself, shortly after released from stasis was he and war all but over. Found Mercado on father's farm. Alone. Dead was Mercado's mother, energon poisoning. Long ago lost Mercado's father had he, and vengeance driven was brother Raph. Mercado had been running farm alone, no longer writing poems, or caring to since told beloved childsweetheart Ligh had...died. Tragedy of brother's lie a tale for another time, but Mercado had nothing. NOTHING.

Like it much..."

Aerodrone Pete, Gryff, Bloodmoon the Ork, and War Prince Escafil: it was a motely crew Mercado, Ebonhawk and Rana had hitched a ride with from Arrakis on their way to search for the dimension of LEGOtopia--and hopefully their missing friends LEGOman and Sinker. The Lennon had broken away early on and had not docked when Ebonhawk and the others had. Beneath his crimson visor Mercado's brow knotted in thought as he pondered ~~this clumsy recap~~ these recent events...
