There had to be a city. The scriptures were clear enough. Before the blast, before the fallout, it was the capital of the Empire, with towering spires and colossal hanging gardens, seen from as far as the horizon. How could this be turned into sand and desolation?

Always has been the case. I've had conversations with people from defense companies 15+ years ago that I cannot post here but would make you puke. It had always been a Faustian bet that we can gain the knowledge we are doing this for, without the devil being out of the box.

Thank you. Giving any time to a company run by a guy who wants to topple democracies is accelerating your own demise. The returns will always be negative.
