The War With No End: The Frontier War Cover-Up Cont’d from Page 2 Later that year, an interesting name appeared during our research into black box transcripts from fallen IMC ships: Sergeant 1st Class Anita Williams. Williams served with her brother, Lieutenant Jackson Williams, on the IMS Hestia. While these names might not appear familiar at first glance, Sgt. Williams is more popularly known as the Apex Legend Bangalore. All attempts to reach Sgt. WIlliams were ignored. (At one point, she threatened bodily harm if we continued “harassing” her, as if civilians seeking the truth were somehow the antagonists in all this.) This transcript details the final moments of her brother’s life. (14:45:00) SGT. ANITA WILLIAMS: All clear in southwest quadrant. Screening southeast quadrant now, starting in Airlock Bravo. (It’s assumed she’s speaking to the ship’s captain here. This was soon after Operation Long Spear and many soldiers on the Hestia were in triage. All hands were on deck for perimeter checks.) LT. JACKSON WILLIAMS: Appreciate you helping us out with the perimeter check, Sergeant. You’re one of the few soldiers who made it through in one piece. ANITA: No thanks necessary. Orders are orders, sir. JACKSON: Still. You could’ve argued with me. ANITA: I don’t argue with officers who outrank me. (At this point, we hear a chuckle. Assumption is that it’s Jackson, as records indicate they were the only two in the airlock.) JACKSON: That so? I’ll remind you of that on Christmas, when I call dibs on your slice of Nana’s red velvet cake. ANITA: Try it and I’ll duct-tape you to the wall. All clear in Airlock Bravo. [NOISE HEARD ON OUTSIDE HULL] JACKSON: What was that? ANITA: Atmospheric debris. Happens all the time out here. Come on, we’ve got three-quarters of the hull we still have to get through, and we haven’t even gotten to the— JACKSON: Sergeant, stand back. ANITA: I’m telling you, you’re worried about nothing— JACKSON: I gave an order, Sergeant. ANITA: Copy. [unidentified movement] JACKSON: [expletive] I have a 406-T on the outer hull in Airlock Bravo. Engaged. I repeat, engaged. ANITA: A 406—That’s a— JACKSON: [expletive] damnit, ‘Nita, get the [expletive] away from the— [EXPLOSION] [DURATION OF RECORDING DIFFICULT TO TRANSCRIBE DUE TO EXPLOSIVE DEPRESSURIZATION] ANITA: Jackson! [unintelligible] hold [unintelligible] JACKSON: [unintelligible] need a [unintelligible] can’t [unintelligible] ANITA: Hold [unintelligible] Jackson! That final “Jackson” is an elongated cry. Almost a scream. We consulted Sgt. Williams’ on-record statement about the incident, and there are inconsistencies, to say the least. She remembers the conversation as revolving around Thanksgiving, not Christmas. She remembers grabbing the handle of the holding area door, but doesn’t remember whether she grabbed her brother’s hand to save him, or he grabbed hers. Are these the mistakes of a woman who suffered a traumatic experience . . . or something else entirely? Surprisingly, Sgt. WIlliams did tell us in an unhinged tirade that her brother was not dead. Does she know something this transcript doesn’t tell us? Is the truth about Lieutenant Williams’ death far more sinister? What, if anything, does Apex Legend Bangalore know about the last days of the Frontier War, after the communications blackout of 2715? Is she aware no one returned from that final battle at Gridiron? Does she know who won the war? This reporter will continue to dig until answers are found. As always, if anyone has any information pertaining to Sgt. Williams, or the Frontier War, we encourage you to contact us here at the Journal. Tomorrow, we have an exclusive interview with Ransin Mandaleigh, a resident of Talos who claims he is Heinrich Hammond, the father of the Frontier, now at the ripe old age of 650. What evidence does he have to support this claim? Could he be telling the truth? Decide for yourself in tomorrow’s edition of The Outlands Journal. - Angela Fazia Next – Apex Legend Wraith: Friend or Figment? Outlands Journal | Issue 3 | Page 3
