Iacon Highway (SG)



A popular Shattered Glass Autobot (SG) saying is that "all roads to Iacon (SG) go thorugh hell" (rough human translation). Cybertron's largest highway system, leading directly into Iacon, is a nightmare of navigation due to neglect. However, as per Emperor Prime' s directive, the "psychology" of the highway trumps any convenience. Before daring to venture into Iacon, any brave Decepticon (SG) would have to travel miles of the feared highway, which is filled with chuck holes and cracks. What's worse, though, is the strands of discarded remains from Decepticon resistance fighters. Blasted arms, torn armor, and charred frames, Emperor Prime has routinely ordered the highway be littered with such remains that aren't captured and discarded in the Smelting Pools. You're an Autobot and complain that a Decepticon frame caused a flat tire on your way to Iacon? Try persuading Emperor Prime to reverse his executive order. To him, a few flat tires and some punctured fuel lines are well worth the tradeoff, which is the sight of his deceaded enemies routinely being ran over and over again by the crunch of Autobot gears and tires. Emperor Prime has also made a decree that any Decepticon who is killed in battle on the historic Iacon highway would be resigned to remain there until their mortal remains are crushed, rammed, and hit toward oblivion. Such a fate has made even the most courageous of Decepticons fear of meeting their creator on the Iacon highway.
