📻 <It's been... a long time. Perhaps long enough there are now those here that do not know who I am-

📻 <My name is Alec- Alec... Alec Phillips. I am the Broadcaster of this manor and a survivor as well.

📻 <I... I do not do well in meeting new people, I... I-I'll admit, but...

📻 <If you do need anything, please do not hesitate. My room is open to all who need perhaps a song or two to ease their nerves.

A comic-type project and some original designs/concepts for Factionless Hema that inspired the format and design eventually used for chapter 8, ‘Hello...?’. Between the concept art and the actual chapter, a lot changed.

When this idea was first pitched, Hematite was going to send out video messages instead of just audio. However, audio alone worked better for the purpose of the chapter.

Originally, Hematite’s visor was going to get broken along his travels, cutting off his communications with Homeworld. This was changed to his archival visor power source running out of juice and shutting down.

To tell you I’m sorry... for everything that I’ve done.
