Re: The Game: Chapter 14
In reply to Zuriel Silendril (msg # 18):
"I was... hmm," the knight frowns, contemplating the question. "I was on a routine patrol around the gates of Jannah when I was summoned to the command tent."
The knight speaks slowly, as though the information is difficult to coax from his mind.
"I remember being excited by the honor of meeting the Amir for the first time, but I never actually saw him. The command tent was filled with light and shadows. It was impossibly light and dark at the same time. I saw the figure of the Amir, a tangible presence I could not see, and I could tell I was being appraised."
"The Amir said that a team was being put together for a special mission, and asked whether I knew how to wield the truth. I was confused and stated as much, at which point I was given an unlit torch and ordered to light it using nothing but the power of my mind."
"I protested that I was not a mage, at which point the figure reassured me that I could still serve. I was then instructed to stare at the unlit torch, which I did."
The knight frowns.
"I remember a flash of light, and then... nothing. I find myself here, with you, in what is assuredly NOT Jannah. And so I ask you, what's going on?"
