Water Goblin

I walk beside these hulking, monstrous, silent sentinels, and I know that when I breath my last breath, when my heart beats its last pump of drug diluted blood, and my body becomes part of this sludge we call "Home", they'll resurrect me. Emotionless and without thought, that which is the only thing that liberates me from the oppression they call life down here, I'll be reprogrammed like a piece of circuitry.

 

They tell you when you sign up that in order for society to make its strides towards success and progress everyone must walk in the same direction. For anyone to gain that nirvana that awaits once you clock out one last time would be to take two steps backwards. We all know that's just bullshit, but the pay is good, and the drugs let us get one step closer to that relief we all seek. The high is cheap, but so is life.

 

So I walk side by side, with some curse soul. Repairing the infrastructure made for the rich, and maintained by the scum.

 

I'll never understand its pain, but it can't even understand the word "pain". It's some kind of fucked-up joke really. No longer can I use the future to escape the reality in which I live like I did when I was younger. Because I see my future beside me. It's physical. It's as real as me. The second I signed that contract, I signed my life, actually my death, away to some corporation as lifeless, cold and ugly as the goblin I call my guardian down here in the abyss.

 

Inspired by the likes of Babiru, Bioshock's Big Daddy Concepts, and Carter Baldwin's Grunt Hardsuit builds. It's built to look ugly on purpose. I really wanted to use that center piece after getting a couple of the old Exo Force sets. Enjoy.
