Re: Nikolaj into the Night
Your arms are stiff, but from disuse. Your stretch sets you to moving slightly, and soon you bump into a wall. It has handles in various spots, all painted like a barber shop pole, but blue and green instead of red and white.
No blue people are sensed, but a blue ball floats up from the floor. From it s hines a light which creates a hologram.
"Emperor." There is rush and noise in the background as the Avian speaks. "I apologize for leaving you, but pirates have attacked us at this hidden base of the Great Ships of yours, and we go to draw them away from here. They have sensors to detect us, of the Three Races, but not you, so we cannot leave anyone behind. We pray to the Creator to see you again, your loyal servants."
You hear shouts, and see a rough Kringsta face you recognize even with its bandage.
"You done? then hurry, for our lives."
BOOM. Sounds in the distance. BOOM. And you see dust shiver from the outer walls of your chamber through the viewing field.
