We put them in caskets. War suits that hooked into their flesh, spiked into their minds, pumping them to bursting with combat drugs. Then they were sealed into the armour from the outside. Launched from orbit into that hellish planet and left to die, but not before they sowed as much destruction as possible. They were nobodies. One of a billion orphans. The corrupt. The infirm. And anyone who raised a voice to the use of the caskets, ended up in one.
