Jeremiah Holotape 1

Holotape 1 of Jeremiah, recorded roughly around the time the Courier awakened after being shot in the head.

Holotape 1
''...October, 2281. First holotape recorded by Brother Jeremiah of the Brotherhood of Steel.''

''I am recording this holotape to organize my thoughts regarding the future of the Brotherhood. We've hit a dead end. McNamara is content to let us die down here, deep within the bunkers of the Old World. ''

''I say, let McNamara die down here. Hardin wants to be in charge, but his idea of a new Brotherhood is raiding caravans for energy weapons. How could such men claim to be part of the same organization that once included Roger Maxson? We're weak.''

''We've lacked leadership ever since Elijah left. After seeing our recent decay into nothingness, I don't blame him for leaving. We know he's alive, Christine has been sent to neutralize him somewhere up north. As if the great Elijah could be eliminated by a mere knight!''

''I hope for Elijah to come back one day. But it's been five years, I must move on. As his closest pupil, I will do my best to complete his work in his absence. ''

''There is only one way forward for the Brotherhood. The dominance of the Mojave. Hiding here will just result in a concrete tomb. Stealing energy weapons is inefficient and frankly impossible to achieve on a large scale with our numbers. No, the only way to protect the wastes is to rule them. When the Brotherhood is in charge, every subject will aid us in protecting technology...or die in their foolishness to resist.''
