Life is complicated, thought William.

While waiting for the completion of his new equipment he had found a quiet spot to reflect on things. Until Kuru spoke.

What a boring place you’ve found.

I was tired of looking at walking dead people.

This might be the last time you have the luxury, being an important new recruit to them.

Hsin wasn’t what I expected. I’ve never seen someone dressed like that.

Yes, very strange garb. He’s certainly a perplexing being.

Didn’t you already know him?

No. He made a mental ‘calling,’ requesting that any of us dark ones in the vicinity reveal ourself.

Dark ones? There are more of you? How dark?

No more of me in particular, but others also sealed in mundane weapons.

William looked up at the lightening sky and sighed. You know, all of your answers just make me have more questions.

Then stop asking questions.
