So merchandise is@cottonburrow.com mikeduncan and the patreon is patreon.com revolutions hello and welcome to Revolutions Episode 11.7 the annulment of Contracts we left off last week with Timothy Werner getting a bunch of batteries chucked at him in the upper warrens of Olympus on May 17, 2246.
What would go down in Martian history as the Day of Batteries, the first of the three great revolutionary events that would be enshrined in the mythic pantheon of Martian lore before the ink was dry on the Declaration of Independence.
In the immediate aftermath of the incident, the Mars Division Authority censored screen vids to prevent the story from spreading.
And the further you got from expansion one five Way seven, the more difficult it became to know that anything had happened at all.
Security Services then fanned out looking for the rest of the battery chuckers.
They had arrested 42 people right there on the spot, but more than 1,000 people had been there that day, and Security was ordered to track them all down, interview them, and identify the rest of the culprits.
But this was tough going, because the D classes had long since perfected the art of answering Security Service questions without really saying anything at all.
This was a reflex.
Whether they were guilty, innocent, or somewhere in between, most of the people there that day knew nothing about anything.
But their responses sounded exactly the same as the people who did know something.
They were vague, non committal, and a little murky on the details.
Meanwhile, the Corporate Intelligence wing of the Security Services opened an investigation into members of the reception committee.
