Chapter 3

24 Des 1232

"I knew we shouldn't have trusted them! Who's grand idea was it to have Braxxian mercenaries lead us to an ambush!"

"Calm down, Lucia", I said reassuringly. "We're not dead... yet".

"Those backstabbing mercenaries", Carper grunted, "I say, We kill them in their sleep!"

"You know, Carper might have a point, most of their men are drunk from the ale we brought them", Rebus added.

"A knife to the throat, serves them right, I say", Lucia chimed in. "How about it, Eric?"

"There's not enough time, the ambush is tomorrow"

      I stood outside for the first time since a very long time. I was in the dark of night, stood there alone shivering without shelter from the cold night's air. I saw something bright in the distant, it was a lamp post and beside it, a telephone booth. I went into the telephone booth and picked up the the telephone only for me to realize that I don't know who to call, I can't remember anything, not even my name. I reach into my pocket and took out my cellphone and called the only number I had on my contacts, I decided to call that number. "Hello?", a familiar voice answered my call. Images flashed before my very eyes, sitting alone in a cell, cut off from the outside world. I was trapped there for a very long time, too long for me to remember.

But before I go, I must settle my debts and take care of loose ends. But once all that is over, I shall take the first boat I can find and make my way to safety. -The journal of a srijian doctor. 14th Nov 1232 The situation here in Castellum has spiraled out of control.

Coda chapter 3

Alarm bells were ringing, red lights were flashing, the same monotonous announcement: "Warning, warning, the whisperer machine has been activated" repeats itself over and over again. I had never heard of the whisperer machine in all my 3 years time on this spaceship, I went to the armory and took with me the S-U-B, a sub-machine gun. I made my way through the maze-like corridors, the deeper I go, the more fear I felt. wires were dangling all over the place, overturned tables and chairs, demolished walls and huge debris blocking my paths. Finally I reached the whisperer machine, or to be more exact, its power source.  The whisperer machine was getting its power through a huge laser in the center of the room. The laser was about a meter in diameter and shines a cyan blue color, the laser was coming through the roof of the room and was hitting a panel on the floor.
