Version 2006 - Ch 37

INTERLUDE :CHURCH OF THE DARK ONE- TEMPLE OF THE FANGED SKULL



The First Son was not happy at all. He had spend large amounts of money and betrayed both the Kermac and the Worm to get his hands on the Narth Friend. He searched as long as he could but he had not found the Midshipman. He had found the Shiss-Human dead near the ship, but no trace of the Neo Viking. He laughed a dry laugh at the Worm and the Kermac for dismissing him like a child. This was Sin 4 and his back yard. If the Neo Viking was alive he would not be for long. Sin 4 was a rough place. But he would send out a few bounty hunters and a huge reward and they would find him dead or alive. He touched his terminal to make the call but instead getting the person he wanted the Symbol of the Worm appeared. "No one double crosses the Worm!" A voice said. "The punishment is death!" "What can you do? I am still the First Son of Darkness and well protected!" "You just touched the screen. So you see the fine dust? That is Califerm, God Dust. You will be surprised to find out what it does to a Saresii!" He knew what it did! Califerm increased the Psionic abilities of normally weak Psionic talents, but it was the most horrible death to a Saresii. His own mind would explode! There was a cure but only at advanced Saresii Hospitals and not here on SIN 4. He would never make it there, even if he would he was declared an Outlaw so long ago, this was the end. His dream of claiming the ultimate power sleeping so deep on Narth World was over. The headache begun, there was no longer a coherent thought..only pain. With a sickening wet sound something ruptured and thick blood trickled out of his nose as he slumped over and his head banged on his desk.
