I jogged to catch up with Akash the moment I had left the room.
"Hey, are you doing okay?" I asked. "Even I know that fighting against the Morde Kash is something that should be done at a distance, and preferably with heavy artillery."
Of course, that wasn't something that I knew with any personal experience with the creatures, I was just going off of the similar species that I had seen in various forms of media over the years. If these things were like the borg or the cybermen, then a single touch could be enough to set off the conversion process. Though I wasn't sure how they would handle biological material that was as exotic and unique as the wood-like flesh of Akash.
"I am doing fine," Akash said, there was a short edge to his tone. "I take it Belana has summoned you to deal with this Morde Kash situation as well."
