Stay here.

[Markus_Janus]

Here and now, stay here and now.

All through out his childhood he knew how important service was.
From the time his memories began, his father would tell him great stories about his exploits, working for Kusari to make a new world free from the problems of the past.
He would sit and listen for hours about how his dad had infiltrated the Blood Dragons to bring about the end of a warlord that wanted to see Kusari burn for no other reason then one of his ancestors, twenty generations ago had been deposed by the people.
He memorised every sentence that came from his fathers mouth.

The stories always made his dad seem larger than life, but everyone knew that he was.
His father had been known as one of the greatest agents the Kempeitai had ever had.
He was a veteran of countless missions against the enemies of Kusari.
Throughout his life he knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was going to follow his fathers footsteps.
To protect those weaker than yourself, that was the noblest of calling, one he was only to happy to follow.

Mother would always worry when he was gone, always afraid he would not come home.
Her son would hold her and remind her of all the families whose fathers did come home because of him.
Deep down in his heart he knew that one day his father would not return, but such is the life of service.

When he lost his father to a botched operation in the Tau systems, he knew that he had died doing what was right, as he always wanted.
He signed up strait away for service, to continue the legacy, one that deserved to be continued.
