Subject: Dissent

Grave times are here, Guardians. Why do you encourage it? The message rang throughout the minds of the elemental guardians. Sotto finally broke his silence. The ageless tree bore an important message.

I realize you hold good intentions. But these demons are manmade�let them face their own repercussions! The world of Cybertron has faced the threat of war before, let them extinguish it again! Though the mindless army assaulting this clockwork world is under supernatural control, we mustn't enforce our own standards. The driving force is weak. They fight themselves more than their prey! These slothful vermin pose no universal threat. Their masters will kill themselves before they succeed. Besides, your attempts show no signs of slowing the assault.

I will not stand for this interference. We are not to take command of situations such as these! To see my fellow Guardians act in such ways...I must discard my title. From now on, I shall bear the name of old�the nomenclature that once brought more respect than a simple elemental decoration.

I am, and have always been, Sotto...the Tree of Ages.

Sotto silenced his thought. The strain of telepathy on his ancient mind grew stronger each day. Soon the bark would rot, death would come, and he would leave his corner of the universe to the saplings.

Until then he was Sotto, Tree of Ages.
