The woods were strange, he had never been there before. He had obliviously read about trees and woods in the past but he never walked through one. It seemed such an alien experience, all of those sounds, all of those animals walking, all of this spontaneity, confused him.


    There were waterfalls and small hideout in the wilds, all of them inhabited. No one came here. School had taught people to fear and hate the wild.


    <<The wild is dangerous and dirty if you go there maybe you will need to pee, or wash and find that there isn’t anything to do that. What will happen if something happens and you like...broke a leg?!?>> he remember his school mates saying.


    “What a bunch of idiots,” Pxan thought.


    After several hours of walking, he was exhausted, the house was still a few kilometres of from there, and he was finishing supplies. After a few minutes, he saw a big tower overlooking all the wilderness surrounding it. It was made in a strange black metal, maybe that was stone, he didn’t know.


    Coming closer he discovered that was a mansion, protected by a small moat and some water. There weren’t even wires or walls there. On one of the entrances, he saw a sign Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.


    <<If you managed to arrive here you know this place. Simply knock on the front door and one of the robots will open the door.>> then he read in another paint<<this isn’t a joke sign. If you try to come through the windows, inquisitor or not, the robots will kill you.>>


    “Oh. I guest that I have no choice”


    He knocked at the door and waited a few seconds, the door opened and something was coming closer <<Welcome to Terence wood house>> said a voice from behind him, he turned and jumped in fear, when that thing arrived behind him. He turned back to see that was an Unhelm with a few extra arms and layers of metal. He was paralyzed in fear for a few seconds.


    <<Don’t worry about those Unhelm there are completely under my control. Come, enter my house. I don’t think that you have several days of vacation.>>


    Pxan stood there, unsure of what to do. In the end, he decided to advance.  When he entered the house it was already too late to turn back, the door closed behind him, several Unhelm had their eyes on him. One of them, a completely black and clean one was advancing towards him <<Hi Pxan>> he said in a too friendly tone <<having, to be honest, I am not very surprised that you became an inquisitor. They like little children like you. Oh, you have grown so much. Come, come, let’s sit and talk.


    Pxan advanced timidly through the wooden house with decorations of another era. The paintings were strange, the few books that he saw were even stranger, everything there screamed alien and strange. If this was the house of a common man he would have been arrested and tortured by the inquisition immediately, everything there screamed blasphemy and weirdness.


    The Unhelm sat <<so Pxan what did you wanted to talk about?>>
