Excerpt from a Nod orientation briefing for new recruits

Welcome to the Brotherhood of Nod. You have joined a global order with millions of members all working together in harmony to unite the world in the name of peace - and realize the true potential of mankind.

Our relationship with Tiberium has always been greatly misunderstood. Most people do not realize that the roots of our faith extend back several millennia, long before the emergence of the green crystal on Earth in 1995... an event prophesized by our great leader, Kane.

While the fascist political consortium of wealthy nations known as the Global Defense Initiative attempted to control the sacred green crystal, the Brotherhood worked tirelessly to acquire samples of the precious crystal... to study it, to unlock its potential as a new energy source, to explore its possibilities. Through our research and our faith, we have affirmed that Tiberium is the ultimate gift to mankind. It is the key to the future.

Our movement grew rapidly as Tiberium spread across the Earth. The mainstream media branded us as 'terrorists' but we exposed GDI as the real criminals. They unilaterally redrew international border lines, relegating Nod followers into inhospitable Yellow Zones while they claimed the pristine and exclusive Blue Zones all for themselves.

摘自Nod對(duì)新成員的情況介紹

歡迎加入Nod兄弟會(huì)。你加入了一個(gè)環(huán)球組織，數(shù)百萬(wàn)的人和睦相處，以和平的名義統(tǒng)一世界—并發(fā)揮人類真正的潛能。

我們與泰伯利亞的關(guān)系一直被極大地誤解。大多數(shù)人沒(méi)有認(rèn)識(shí)到我們的信仰可以追溯到幾千年前，早在1995年地球出現(xiàn)綠色晶體之前…這是我們偉大的領(lǐng)袖凱恩所預(yù)言的事件。

當(dāng)富裕國(guó)家的法西斯政治聯(lián)盟——被稱為全球防衛(wèi)組織（Global Defense Initiative）——企圖阻止神圣綠色晶體生長(zhǎng)的時(shí)候，兄弟會(huì)不知疲倦的工作，以獲取珍貴的晶體樣本…去研究它，釋放它作為一種新能源的潛力，探索它的可能性。通過(guò)我們的研究和我們的信念，我們已經(jīng)肯定泰伯利亞是給予人類的終極禮物。是通往未來(lái)的關(guān)鍵。

泰礦遍布全球，我們的勢(shì)力也發(fā)展迅速。主流媒體給我們打上了“恐怖分子”的標(biāo)簽，但是我們揭露GDI才是真正的罪犯。他們單方面重新劃分了國(guó)際邊境線，把Nod追隨者們流放到環(huán)境惡劣的黃區(qū)，卻宣稱未受泰礦損害，全部的藍(lán)區(qū)受到他們獨(dú)占。

譯注：我懷疑加入Nod的不少黃區(qū)人只是單純對(duì)GDI有仇恨，對(duì)泰礦其實(shí)沒(méi)啥好感，畢竟泰礦把他家都?xì)Я?，所以說(shuō)還是Nod會(huì)忽悠啊，笑死
