The Umberella Brigade


At the beginning of a century not so long ago, in a universe so very, very close to our own (ours, in fact) was borne the Umbrella Brigade. Even at its inception a salvation machine of ghosts with the best of violent intentions that set out to right non-extant wrongs. Its vastness never vast, and its reception never warm, it was from the start long abandoned by a society that never wanted it in the first place. Nor the third (the second for a second, but quickly reconsidered). Besieged by wires with homeless plugs, the membership dwindled over the year(s), and now it numbers three. "ENNF" is their rallying cry, and, though none have any idea as to its meaning, all answer it with insurgent aplomb. And quite well, thanke yew very much.
