"Trying out these terminal things... not sure if I'm doing this right."
"What a fucking first day It's been... apologies for the sloppy language, I can barely keep my eyes open.
Actually nevermind this is my journal I can drop the sorry crap.
Anyways like I said this is the start of a journal of sorts. After todays events, I figured I'd better keep something like this so I can look back on it... maybe it'll have some sentimental value when I'm old and wise like Akuma or some shit.
As I was saying, today couldn't have been more hectic. First we infiltrated the Center of Reality and killed Archon Kyra (We looked badass with our purple visors by the way). Then Stranger passed and we carried out "Gone-West"... carrying him all the way was really something. It's put new meanings on life and death for me... and what I want my end to look like.
That's it for now, I'm going the fuck to sleep."

"Had to happen eventually... what we all signed up for."
"This is being written mere hours after what happened... not sure how If I'll think the same way in the morning. Anyway, Goliath died today.
We received a ping from Commander 'Universe' warning us off an incoming Sarkic Rift on surface. Eventually, the collection of islands shown above was found, containing various runic messages along with the skull of Kyra. The Sarkic lettering read out 'SACRIFICE MUST BE MADE', leading to Goliath volunteering himself. Thus, he became a vessel for Kyra... carrying his skull back to bunks as he slowly deteriorated.
In my opinion, it was the highest honor for any XI-8 Operative. To sacrifice yourself for the greater good... to fulfill your duties. Any of us would have done the same given the opportunity, still doesn't hurt any less. Seeing someone of my same rank die in such a way really brought a few things into perspective for me.
Guess It's just another step in my growth. I'll miss you 'Goliath', let's meet again some day."

"Happened again. Wonder when I may be the operative?"
"I'd like to keep this short as I wish to not think about this for long. Today we carried our mission of infiltrating Site-73-A1. Around a 5 hour mission... not a single break throughout. Sarkic after sarkic, death after death, and our chances of making it out alive slowly dwindling."
"Eventually, we reached what seemed to be with end of the site. Nothing but a dreary D-Block... simply being watched by the Archon and his lackeys. And of course, yet again, a sacrifice had to be made for an artifact. Libra stepped up, still a fresh face amongst us, and decided to fulfill his ultimate duty."
"I don't wish to delve in to too much detail... but we made it out mostly fine. After obtaining two new artifacts though, I begin to wonder just what exactly our status in this war is. Why did the Archon want us to take these? How many steps ahead is the Sarkic army?"
"Libra was a noble guy... a true operative... maybe I should talk to someone in medbay"
