48. The black egg.

    People came and went from the library. Inquisitors took their orders and execute them flawlessly, this is what meant to be an inquisitor: to execute flawlessly the orders that you received. It was dehumanizing, at times even nerve breaking but someone had to do it. Someone had to do this dirty work.


    As time went on Pxan noticed a pattern in the notes: red meaned special missions, yellow killing contracts, white deliveries and orange spying mission. Today he received a purple one and was much dazzled by it. <<Go to the black egg and see if everything is fine>> handwritten at the bottom there was another part <<If this is your first time ask your referent>>


    After half an hour he was somewhere in the underground Rene <<you see there are certain points that we have to...check sometimes. The black egg is one of them.>>


    <<What is the black egg?>>


    <<Well it’s…>> Rene visibility cought <<a strange artefact here in the underground made of a strange organic metal. I know of a few incidents of people getting sucked into it but overall is not dangerous. Fewer questions you ask the safer you are.>>


    If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.The descend continued: second floor, third floor, fourth floor. By now he should have had some hallucinations but nothing happened <<you see there are a few clean routes in the undergrounds. Passages and hallway far from the core or too protected.>>


    When he arrived there three Unhelm waited for him with guns pointed at him. He recognized the model, those were the new model, the black ones. The ones made by the inquisition. They didn’t attack them. Once passage the long hallway of a strange grey stone he saw a vast valley made of monoliths, columns and stone. It was a strange spectacle to see. At the further end, there was a statue of what looked like a councilour holding a strange black object. <<that is the black egg if you are wondering. Do not get too close and, more importantly, don’t touch it. We are here simply to see if anything is fine.>>


    Rene went closer to the egg with some lens to see if it shows any sign of decay or breaking, nothing. Pxan looked better at the various columns and noticed that there was a statue embedded in them. Faces, bodies, torsos, animals, anything was in them. Not after long, the whole place begun to give him a headache and he wished not to be there.


    <<Rene what is this place?>>


    Rene turned suprised <


    >


    He looked around, there was a strange statue of a man embedded in the rock, the face looked familiar. He went closer and saw that he wore inquisitors clothes and equipment, he had already seen this person, this statue was new. He prefered not to think about becoming one of those statues and went away. Before the voices in his mind became even louder, one of the side effects of the underground.
