Dieses St\u00fcck wurde 2633 in das Archiv des Historischen Gew\u00f6lbes f\u00fcr die Antike UPE aufgenommen.\n\nDer K\u00fcnstler Aaron Fring wurde 2578 auf Ferron als Sohn von Max und Mary Fring, einem Lehrer bzw. Piloten, geboren. Als Kind litt er unter einem Anfall von Kilos' Krankheit und war \u00fcber ein Jahr lang bettl\u00e4gerig. W\u00e4hrend dieser Zeit verbrachte er seine Zeit mit dem Skizzieren. Als junger Mann meldete sich Fring bei der Expeditionstruppe als Feldarzt. Er reiste zu vielen Systemen, bevor er sich schlie\u00dflich entschied, sich auf Elysium IV festzulegen.\n\nTags\u00fcber betrieb Fring eine kleine Medizinstation und begann nachts wieder zu malen. Er wanderte oft stundenlang durch die Landschaft und malte alles, was er sah. Obwohl er als Landschaftsk\u00fcnstler vielversprechend war, hinterlie\u00df er nie einen gro\u00dfen Eindruck in der Kunstszene. Obwohl er sich mehr w\u00fcnschte, war Fring mit seiner Praxis und seinem Hobby zufrieden.\n\n2603 tauchte ein neuer Tevarin-Kriegsherr, Corath'Thal, mit einer wiederaufgebauten Tevarin-Kampfflotte aus den Ecken des Kosmos auf und startete seinen ersten Angriff auf die UPE-Systeme. Die einzige Mission von Tevarin bestand darin, Elysium IV, ihre ehemalige Heimatwelt, zur\u00fcckzugewinnen. Die Siedlungen auf Elysium IV st\u00fcrzten sich auf die Waffen zur Verteidigung ihrer H\u00e4user. Fring versuchte, sich wieder anzuschlie\u00dfen, aber die gleiche Krankheit, die ihn als Kind plagte, tauchte wieder auf und hinderte ihn daran, seine Pflicht zu erf\u00fcllen.\n\nAm 24. Juni 2610 SET erlitt Corath'Thal bei der ber\u00fcchtigten Schlacht von Centauri eine katastrophale Niederlage gegen die Staffel 42. Da seine Flotte schnell entweder der Zerst\u00f6rung oder der Kapitulation zum Opfer fiel, versammelte Corath'Thal seine verbleibenden treuen Piloten, um eine verzweifelte Anklage gegen Elysium IV zu erheben. Obwohl sie zus\u00e4tzlich 70% Verluste erlitten, erreichte seine Flotte schlie\u00dflich die Atmosph\u00e4re ihrer alten Heimatwelt.\n\nCorath'Thal und seine Piloten senkten ihre W\u00e4rmeschilde und tauchten f\u00fcr den Planeten.\n\nAaron Fring war an diesem Abend spazieren gegangen. Seine Krankheit hatte sich etwas gelegt. Er f\u00fchlte, dass er aussteigen und seinen Kopf frei machen musste. Er wanderte durch die Landschaft, wie er es schon oft getan hatte. Auf dem Kamm eines H\u00fcgels sah er etwas Spektakul\u00e4res:\n\nDie Tevarin-Flotte brannte in der Atmosph\u00e4re, als sie auf den Boden zusteuerte.\n\nVon der Kunst heute (2613):\n\n\"Wie bei den meisten Kunstwerken habe ich nicht versucht, den Moment genau so darzustellen, wie er war. Das ist es, was ich in der Vergangenheit immer getan hatte, aber das war etwas so viel mehr als das Visuelle. Es war so viel Komplexit\u00e4t in diese Aktion verwickelt, vom Tevarin, f\u00fcr das, was es f\u00fcr uns als Spezies bedeutete und was es f\u00fcr mich bedeutete. Ich wollte nur versuchen, das Gef\u00fchl dieses Zeitabschnitts einzufangen. So sch\u00f6n und so traurig.\"\nAaron Fring","zh_CN":"Bentley National Gallery\n\nSelf-Tour Painting Info\n\nPiece: \u201cTears of Fire\u201d\n\nArtist: Aaron Fring\n\nCreated: 2610\nBefore you stands as one of the most enduring images from the Second Tevarin War (2603-2610).
