WHY ARE WE HERE?
Itis not enough that we,the imbued, must somehow come to grips with the awful truth
of the world. It we do not know who weare and why wehave been called оfight this war.
we wil never bo strong enough fo overcome the monsters and their domination of the
human race. The merefact thatothersofthechosen doпо!seetheenemyinthesameway
we do is proof enough that the imbuing alone does nol provideaclear course to victory.
This site is for the fighters, the warriors who see the world for what itis — а
battleground. The enemy wilnotgivein simply because we askthem to or appeal to their
corrupted humanity. We imbued have found our way onto the net to find others like
ourselves, to share our experiencesanddraw courage trom ono another. Instead, we are
bombarded by dissenting voices, weak wils and selfish egoswhotryto turn the huntinto
а mockery of its noble purpose. Hunter-net served its purpose well enough in the
beginning, but now it acts more to weaken our resolvethan to strengthen it. Think of this
site as afire in the darkness, to gather our lost and scattered numbers and renew our
determination forthe true cause.
И you believe in wasting your energies to protect drones orto look forthe good in tho.

SIGHTINGS
the killers of beasts, This а place for us to share our knowledge of the enemy and the
tactics of their destruction. I created this site to keepoursouls pure and our minds focused
on the task at hand.
