The sun started to sink over the depths of Indigo Truce’s glassy lake of imagination. While the patrons of Indigo Truce sheltered for the evening of psychological torture bombs, two hooded figures walked side by side – by no means afraid of the bombs that were rumoured to be dropped at this time – deep in conversation, and thought.
Log-eti-ety peeked out of her mind’s shelter with a look of extreme interest. In all her 35 years of living and working in Indigo Truce, she had never seen the immortals. And before this moment she had not believed that they were ever more than a fragment of someone’s imagination.
But now, as she looked out of her mind’s shelter at the two hooded figures – using her finely tuned gut instinct and mental sensors – she knew for sure, that they were real.
The rumours she had heard stated clearly that there were only three immortals, and they all were men. Which puzzled her to the point of no return, because out of these two immortals, only one was a man.
The girl smelt fresh, as if she had only just arrived. The kinetic energy flowing throughout her aura was a complete contradiction; Log-eti-ety had never come across such a thing in her many years of study.
Something troubled the girl, not anything to her immediate knowledge – But something that had happened a long time ago, on a planet far, far away. Though she wasn’t acknowledging it now, it was soon to play a huge part in her existence. This worried Log-eti-ety, for she was sure that this was implicated on the whole of her kind.
She tried to reach out to the girl with her mind, to see if she really was an immortal. To find out why she smelt fresh, and why she had never heard of her before.
Alas, as Log-eti-ety reached out with her mind, the darkness of Norr snatched her soul from inside her mind’s shelter, strangling it to death.
The darkness of Norr had noted the girl’s presence, and now there was nothing to stop it from destroying all of humanity.
The darkness, it is spreading. Not long now until it suffocates us all. For the day Norr captures the immortals, is the day everything dies.
