[Intercepted Transmission: Chaos Divers Ship “Liberator”]

Transmission Start — Channel Secured — Origin: Liberator Bridge

[Background Noise: Static, low murmuring, faint whispers barely audible]

Captain: "This is Captain Armand of the Liberator. To all Chaos Divers on board... we've fought long and hard against the oppression of Super Earth. We've believed in our cause, our fight for liberty... but now... now I ask you all to... reconsider."

[Murmurs of confusion. Voices in the background express uncertainty: "What does he mean?", "Reconsider?"]

Captain (voice slowing, tone becoming uncertain): "There is... there is no threat. No danger. The Chaos Divers... it’s all just... a misunderstanding. The Illuminate... they’ve deceived us. We were turned against our own... against Super Earth..."

[Background noise intensifies slightly. A faint whisper begins to filter through the transmission, soothing, almost hypnotic.]

Whisper (soft, just barely perceptible): "Come home, soldier... return to Super Earth. There is no danger here... We will forgive you... We need you home... We will make you better... b-b-better..."

[The captain's voice changes, sounding more distant, almost mechanical.]

Captain: "Super Earth is... is our home. There is no Chaos Divers... there is no rebellion... it was all... all a lie. The Illuminate are misleading us... We must return... fight for Super Earth... for our true home..."

[More whispers layer over the captain's voice, almost like an echo, softly repeating phrases of comfort and forgiveness.]

Whisper (growing more insistent, still calm): "Return to us... no war, no conflict... Come home... safe here... You will be forgiven... made better... b-b-better..."

[Background voices start to express confusion and fear. A few Chaos Divers can be heard saying, "What’s happening?", "I… I can’t think clearly…"]

Captain (pleading, voice monotone): "We have been... wrong... misguided... Lay down your arms... come back to Super Earth... We will be welcomed back... We will be... whole again..."

[The whisper grows louder, more invasive, like it's directly inside the listeners’ minds. Several voices in the background begin to murmur in unison, repeating the whispers.]

Whisper (now with a subtle, chilling authority): "You are home now... No fear, no pain... only peace... Come home... Be better... b-b-better... Serve Super Earth... Serve... Democracy Prime..."

[Sounds of weapons being dropped. Footsteps shuffle. More voices, calm and compliant, repeat the whisper's words.]

Captain (now fully synchronized with the whisper): "Come home... Serve Super Earth... Be... better... b-b-better..."

[Transmission static intensifies, then abruptly cuts out as the last few words echo through the channel.]
