[|Scarecrow|]

007. “THE ROAD TO REDEMPTION, STAGE 3”, Feature length story -
Based on server RP events, and written as a post-by-post by |Scarecrow|, Cerun, Pax Westfalia, Robert Merlow, and Michael Wintermute, on Freelancer Evolved (EvolvedOnes).

Marcus Scarman and the leaders of the Freedom Fighters wage a rapid campaign of covert operations and intelligence gathering against the Nomad hosts in Manhattan Capital. It transpires that many figureheads, social leaders, high-power businessmen, and politicians have been replaced by Nomad hosts. Nothing can be done about their tragic deaths, but they can be avenged.

The Freedom Fighters, along with the Rheinwehr and elements of LSF intelligence build a picture of key Nomad operations and targets. Then, in several swift hammer-blow strikes, they begin cutting off the heads of the hydra.

In the ensuing chaos of the assassinations and the Nomad fight-back, Scarecrow, Cerun, and Robert Merlow break into the Presidential suite. The fighting is short and intense, but they are able to put an end the Nomad’s tyranny over Liberty. President Jacoby, killed long ago by the Nomad who possesses her, is taken down, ending the reign of the Nomads throughout the sector.

The ensuing chaos is rampant; with a huge void opening in the power sectors of Liberty’s higher echelons, the house is vulnerable. Those who remain must install a swift and democratic resolution. Cerun and the other Freedom Fighters fade back into the shadows, keeping their part in the saving of Liberty secret from public record. Scarecrow, astonished and humbled by their selfless acts, pledges to serve Liberty and the Freedom Fighters until his last breath.
