The Security Council,
Unshackling itself from the chains of time to look back to an age of titans and legendary feats; home to the stories that gave rise to those who carry on the fight to preserve and protect the innocent today, laying the foundations upon which these very halls rest,
Remembering the part the cold and misty island of Alcatraz has played in history, paving the road towards light in an era of darkness; Alcatraz would forge a reputation as a leading member of the embryonic defender movement, as a training grounds for what would come to be a defining generation of defenders, and as a force in their own right, a lighthouse casting away the shadows in the mist in a time before such light permeated through the darkness,
Amazed at the legacy Alcatraz has put up from their murky abode, leveraging their influence and expertise into the formation of the fabled Alliance Defense Network — the first major defender alliance of its kind, nearly unparalleled in stature and impact — creating the groundwork for a proper system that could do what any single actor, no matter how skilled, couldn’t,
Devastated that while Alcatraz has found its place to slumber peacefully, resting in the early pages of history, villains have once again broken into its walls and wreaked havoc where old ghosts sleep,
Determined to keep Alcatraz’s flame alight, and to ensure that a storied defender region, its time done and its due paid, may continue onwards peacefully into the night,
Honoring Alcatraz’s legacy as an ancient watcher of the night, standing tall far off the coast in the early dawn to protect this world in its first days, and hoping now to repay that favor to a guardian at rest, chronicled in moments before time,
Hereby liberates Alcatraz.
