Council of the Corsair Elders

[Equinox]

Elder Costello made his way to the council chambers but instead of heading to the main conference hall he turned right and headed to his own living quarters. Sitting down on the bed he couldn't help feeling sad at the thought of what he was about to do.

Quickly he moved the thought to the back of his mind and gathered the few things in the room that meant anything to him.

Walking back out of the Council building he stopped outside the door of the conference room just for a second then carried on walking to the hanger.

He had already got the hanger hands to dock his Titan on the Velasco and the few loyal men to Costello where already on board the ship waiting for him to arrive.

On the bridge of the Osiris he couldn't help but think about the last few years, joining the Brotherhood for what it stood for, working his way up to Elder, but it seems what it used to stand for is now no more. He remembered reading the information about them to a single line that made him want to join "We are a militant group of radical Corsairs who prefer to achieve their goals by force than by using diplomatic ways as the diplomacy has repeatedly proven to be useless and leads to corruption rather than to its intended goals.", it is a shame the Brotherhood didn't hold up this ideal anymore he thought to himself, after everything that had happened over the last month they still chose to "talk" about it instead of taking action.

He launched the Velasco into Space and headed out into the Omicrons. Then when everyone was settled in for there journey he started composing a message to the Brotherhood.

To The Brotherhood.

It is with a heavy heart that I had to make this decision, but to much has changed for me to be able to stay. Right now I'm on board the Velasco, I do not know my destination I just know I cant watch the brotherhood fiddle with its fingers instead of its lasers.

I've had allot of good times and I've made allot of good friends and it pains me to leave this way, you all do the Corsair people proud in what you do, I wish you well in the future. I only ask one thing from you now. Please do not hate me for my action friends.

Joe Costello.
