Cool Destiny Tool

Blight Ranger

I've thanked God for this mask more times than I can count. It reflects most everything; keeps me on the safe side of whatever's coming at me. Most times…

Dust storm left me no recourse. Came to a small encampment of refugees from Freehold, now buried. Most of them were workers at the old BrayTech facility, none too happy to see an Exo. One of them began to play a rueful tune on a cobbled-together string instrument. To this day, I haven't forgotten the words he sang:

Let me tell ya now

Bout the time the Devil walked through my door

Said oh, let me tell ya now

Bout the time the Devil walked through that door

Ain't nothin', nobody

Could hold me down anymore

It was mine, all mine

Devil gave me that golden ring

It was mine, all mine

Devil made me laugh and sing

But little by little

The Devil took my everything

It was wailin' and gnashin'

When the Devil did his dirty work

Just wailin' and gnashin'

When the Devil did his dirty work

Oh, what a fool had I been

Thinkin' I was above the dirt

In the dirt, they were buried

Made me blue to see that red

In the dirt, they were buried

Made me blue to see that red

Devil took no pity

Left me no place to rest my head

Lord, help the Devil

How'd he get to be so cruel

Lord, help that Devil

How'd he get to be so cruel

That mean old Devil

Was just some other devil's fool

This mask reflected the gaunt faces of the survivors, but it didn't hide me. I could feel hot tears stream down my cheeks. They saw their own pain in me. The accusatory glances stopped then, and a sad understanding remained. Because we all knew, this place will never be the same.
