Briefing

The Keepers have found out that the Mechanists were building a nuclear bomb that was planned to be used in a Pagan territory. This nuclear bomb would eliminate most of the Pagan population. And the Mechanists would show no mercy for them, even if children, old people and defenseless people were to die as well. This discrimination would certainly bring an unbalanced future to the world, as the Mechanists would certainly destroy forests to build their industries and whatnot.

The Keepers knew that they had to do something to stop this bomb being launched into the Pagan territory, because Pagans are essential for nature's perseveration. So, once again, the Keepers approached Garrett and asked him to sabotage the nuclear bomb. It was hard to convince Garrett to accept this task, as it would prove to be very dangerous. But eventually Garrett agreed and managed to sabotage the bomb, which was located in a hidden area somewhere in a desert. The Mechanists tried to launch the nuclear bomb and, as a consequence of the sabotage, the bomb blew up before taking off. The entire Mechanist base was destroyed, along with the Mechanists working there.

When Karras became aware of this incident, he hired expert detectives to find the guilty one. And the rest of the Mechanists were trying to find the guilty party as well. Unfortunately, one of the detectives hired by Karras found some footprints and a lock pick with Garrett's fingerprints. Karras had already suspected Garrett of being responsible for the sabotage. Despite being constantly warned by the Keepers that his head was a prize for the Mechanists, Garrett was caught in one of the thousands of Mechanist traps after a long period of hide and seek. Once captured, he would be executed by being thrown into the Mechanist facility on planet Mercury as prey to be hunted and killed. This hunt would include not only mech bots, but human mechs as well. Some of the Keepers felt a duty to help Garrett in this critical situation, as they were responsible for putting Garrett in this mess in the first place. And so, some valiant, strong and determined Keepers asked the Mechanists to help Garrett survive, confessing at the same time that they were the ones responsible for sabotaging the nuclear bomb. The Mechanists then arrested the Keepers as well and decided that they would be executed along with Garrett. The Mechanists knew that the Keepers were skillful fighters, so they brought in more Mechanists to join the hunt. If any of the condemned survived, which was almost impossible, they would be set free and considered innocent of the crime. The chances of surviving the facility on planet Mercury are little, yet Mechanists are only willing to execute condemned that are not defenseless, otherwise there wouldn't be any honor for them.
