Cole MacGrath and Nix sat in their new hideout pondering what had occured over the past week...
Deaths of so many people, and to what end? The Beast was dead, but was that truely the right call?
Cole wondered many things; but ignored the electrical circuitry sparking. He had drained so much power from these walls since their relocation he'd thought he'd just fried all the equipment... The sparks got more frequent and more intense before they sparked a blaze that engulfed the entire place in seconds.
Surrounded by fire, Cole stayed motionless, staring into his hands.
A Trial by Fire. This was his judgement. The reconcilliation for all he had done. Fitting that it should be started by sparks of electricity... The power in which he weilded so liberally had turned to be his downfall.
Close by FM Sifa Grent watched in Silence.
See, what we know now is that someone had been sabotaging electrical points all around the city. A regular old disgruntled electrician. What were his objectives? His Goals?
We can only speculate at this point.
He wasn't a conduit. One of the chosen few. By the time Cole MacGrath had gotten to the city, the stories of the Demon of Empire City had already hit global media, and the existance of Conduits was made public. Maybe he was just bitter that he wasn't chosen? He wasn't included? His mental state was probably questionable to begin with but he became a sort of copycat killer. He couldn't throw lightning out of his hands but he could manipulate electricity into a destructive force of his own right using sabotage.
The Electro Maniac had finally gotten vengence on the world that had mistreated him so badly. It was he who stood on top victorious at the end of New Marais' conflict. Not the Militia. A crazy lunatic desperate to be a superhero.
They're not gonna put that in the news. Which is why the Militia one man survivor story was fed to the masses.
But we can't forget what was lost in this massive conflict. The lessons that we learn.
Think about the family of Nicol... The Law Abiding Citizen. Just caught at the wrong place at the wrong time. Conflict only leads to pain, to suffering and in the end it gets us nowhere. Infact it gets us less than nowhere... people are dead all around us. These people could have gone onto do great things but now they adorn a graveyard.
We can all learn from the tragedy of New Marais... well... those of us who know the truth.
In the end of all conflicts...
Its only the pyschopaths that win.

Still A Better Love Story Than Twilight: FM Glissa Sunseeker
Spoiler : FM Glissa Sunseeker :
RNGesus is a force beyond human comprehension. He acts in ways we will never understand and for reasons we may never know.
None know this fact more than FM Glissa Sunseeker.
Night 1, Glissa Sunseeker went to dominate the mind of FM Ugin, the god damn beast. This already was a great first hit. She awoke the next morning having converted a target she did not expect, FM Sandruu... Cole MacGrath. The Bus Driver, in his one and only action before being massacred, managed to pick up both The God Damn Beast AND Cole MacGrath, swapping their postions and unintentionally delivering Cole MacGrath right into Sasha's Breast.
Was This RNGesus' way of decreeing that FM Glissa Sunseeker was the chosen one to dictate the future of New Marais?
Alas t'was not to be, as the good RNGesus giveth, so too does he take away.
On the very same night 1, Sasha was investigated by a Cop and was found out; leading to her immediate demise the following day, leaving her freshly dominated slave, FM Sandruu, to fend for himself. Knowing nothing but the maddening whispers of Sasha in his head, Cole set out to kill everyone in New Marais for destroying Sasha... and would have got away with it too if it wasn't for that meddling Electro Maniac (or the fact he got gunshy and didnt kill orange)
Sasha came to New Marais with one purpose... To find Cole Macgrath and to bend him to her sadistic will with a mind controlling tar she produces organically and can spew onto her victims at will; instantly falling under her spell... And managed to do so in record time with the assistance of a Bus Driver who met his end the same night.
Still a better love story than Twilight.
The Militia Is The Law: FM Domri Rade
Spoiler : FM Domri Rade :
Getting a lucky hit on night 1 is all good, but you need to be able to convince people you're telling the truth. Getting a majority vote this early in the game with so many people alive is no small feat with many different counter arguments and doubts around. Domri managed to do just that giving the town a major advantage with the elimination of the Reapers so early on. This confirmed him way too early and the scum let him live way too long... Though it turned around to bite them with his vendetta against Nicol Bolas.
As this objective is two fold, while Karn managed to find a couple of conduits towards the end I felt he wasn't instrumental in the lynches of the ones he foound (or if they were even lynched for that matter)
The Easiest Secondary Known to Man: FM Elspeth Tirel
Spoiler : FM Elspeth Tirel :
Literally could not think of another thing for a coroner to do at the time. In hindsight, check a living person who died that night would have been better. Literally check a ??? dude and succeed. Grats bro. We all have questions about my choices when it comes to the coroner this game anyway... Which I will take away and refine.
We Are The Brotherhood: FM Chandra Nalaar, FM Jace Beleren, FM Ral Zarek, FM Meshuval
Spoiler : FM Chandra Naalar :
Spoiler : FM Jace Beleren :
Spoiler : FM Ral Zarek :
Spoiler : FM Meshuval :
These guys themselves may actually be surprised they got this award but it's technically true. The Secondary Objective for the priest is to be 3 strong at any time. On night 5 their recruit was successful, which put them to 3, and then later in the order of operations Chandra was killed reducing them to two. So by law of design and the phrasing of the objective, They were the brotherhood. Congrats turning 1/3 of the overall starting militia members to the priests.
