Ch. 7: Stellar Showdown
Ruby Rockatansky
One two three Now we go forth Sink or swim, our Sisters join us Set phasers to vengeance Eight-thousand years of war ends here New universal chaos We will decimate this regime Expanding measures, the eleventh hour The bell tolls at relative high noon Stellar showdown We know the stakes They had every chance Now we take our own Stay close and stay alert The Pleiades shine bright tonight Subdivide his forces We will survive or die trying Compounding forever, his eleventh hour The bell tolls from blood-red moon Take my hand at long last Don't let go and hold fast We will soon be free Triumph over tyranny If you could just believe believe We create eternity This labarynth will not be our tomb Once more into the breach Together we fight Where is he hiding? Eight-thousand years of rage to quell Corner him into the void A promise made and a promise kept Now I swear we will avenge the dead The bell tolls and I'll have his head [Synthia] There he is... right there on the bridge! He has thousands with him! [Althaea] He hasn't seen us yet. If we sneak around, we might be able to surprise him, but we have to act fast. You with me? [Synthia] Always. [The Authority] Attention. I know you are out there. And in case you have forgotten, I am all too happy to remind you... I WILL FIND YOU I WILL TAKE YOU I WILL KILL YOU REDFINE YOU I WILL FIND YOU I WILL TAKE YOU I WILL KILL YOU REDESIGN YOU I WILL FIND YOU I WILL TAKE YOU I WILL KILL YOU I WILL KILL YOU [Althaea] Not this time motherfucker One fatal mistake, it's now or never I go left, she goes right We can take him Time to finish this Together we fly [Synthia] Where are you going? Where's your Authority now? He's trying to escape [Both] WE TAKE TO THE STARS [The Authority] No... NO... NOOOO!!!! [Maia] Althaea! Synthia! Are you there? Do you copy? This is Pleiades Squad Leader Maia, I repeat, do y- [Althaea] We're here! We're alive! [Synthia] We're okay. What about you? Is the squad okay? The.. Angels? [Maia] Hot damn it is good to hear your voice, Synthia. We're okay! You did it! His army is surrendering! The war is over! [Althaea] We can finally return home... [Synthia] Right behind you, darling. Now let's get outta here.

Two ships in eternal night;
One chance to save the universe.

Follow Althaea and Synthia, two rogue pilots who have made the bold choice to take on the vile Authority who has been oppressing the universe for countless years. While a resistance movement has made some progress in overthrowing The Authority, there has been little to no hope for so long.
However, whispers and rumors have led our aspiring heroes to a secret space station in a remote quadrant of a quiet solar system where, supposedly, they will find information that will finally turn the tide on a conflict that has already consumed far too many...

Inspired by classic science fiction radio dramas and a life-long love of extreme music, "The Estrogenesis Initiative" is a nearly hour-long production that is one part audio drama and two parts crushing progressive metal that pays homage to a multitude of musical stylings and the classic tradition of human storytelling.
Following 2023's "Better Days" EP, this new album proves to be an incredibly ambitious step forward that challenges expectation and convention to craft a compelling story of love and war against the backdrop of that most infinite unknown...
