Prologue: Back to the Beginning

"I have...grown very, very tired old friend. This war has taken its toll on me as well as every bot involved."

'I was not given a choice...I had to take on the burden of responsibility for millions of lives and the destruction of our planet. I...I never wanted to become a prime. The only reason I spoke up at that pit-forsaken council meeting was because I wanted to help Megatronus restore our society peacefully. Not only did I lose my love, but I lost my freedom too. Can I escape from this war?...Can I give up being a prime and return to being myself? ... Can I be Orion Pax again? And more importantly...can I be free?'
