Chapter 9 : In the dark, but not blind Part 1.

Across Hûlfhednär, the Hûrngöth suffer in extreme agony a breaking mind pain with the intromission of two Energys they were actually deprived off and should have access since they were born, not to mention others less susceptible to manipulation or employment.

Along the entire main entrance of the "Facility", wounded and healthy Hûrngöth, writhe and complain desperately with the continuity of this unforseen and painful event.

Only one Hûrngöth remains impassive, Marshack, completely unweavering, with a stoic and firm posture that remarks his unimpeachable presence.

—This is "Pain"?, because i labeled berely as discomfort.

Marshack's words earn him a few glares from those who can control themselves enough to not writhe in pain but still feel it.

And it is at that moment that Marshack perceives this two foreign Energys or is more accurate call them Exiled Energys.

Permeating everything and simultaneously being independently produced by each Hûrngöth on his sight, and right now, Marshack can see everything in the Solar Sistem with extreme detail thanks to his [Bicromy].

{The Barriers not only force us to stay inside, they kept these energies out, just like the creatures, and the connection with the Plasma Realms is even higher than "That" planet, but they had a Reclusion Barrier too!}.

This provokes Marshack to do something he never does since the foreign female abandoned him, smile, a genuine smile of joy as he never express before.

A smile that doesn't last for long at a simple realization {The jelly blocks of food are not enough to maintain the proper nutrition of the Hûrngöth population}.

Another glance of Marshack with his [Bicromy] reveal a new horrible truth, no children under 92 years (1288 human years) manage to withstand the event, including those who had not yet been born.

Marshack is stupefy, he didn't knew it was a possiblity, the very idea that a woman does not become a mother because of her incapacity of protect the life that is forming inside her, and simultaneously survive even in a dire circumstance as it is now.

{I am unable to comprehend the psychological impact this is going to have in them, personally, i think my incompetence in this type of situations is abhorrent, and i can't do anything to diminish their grief when they learn about the lost of their descendants}.

From the perspective of others, Marshack seems to have a lost gaze, but those with [Bicromy], like Carteon and Alaney promptly get subdued by their newfound capability.

—I can see everything what is happening in Hûlfhednär!; Said with enthusiasm Alaney just to lost her cheerfulness with the wrecked planet she is on.

A similar situation occurs to Carteon, he is checking the wellbeing of his family and is relived by their status —They are safe!; A second glance break him a bit too much, realizing his Aunt and Eldest cousin are not longer pregnant »—I am not going to be an uncle …

The sadness in his voice is palpable, and he falls to his knees while releasing a [Compress] multidirectional wave of orange Prio Plasma.

Marshack dissipate it instantly with his [Interference], and the oblivious multidirectional attack of the orange Prio Plasma is returned to the Realm it belongs.

—My condolences Dankner …; Mentioned Marshack posing his Left hand over the right shoulder of Carteon »—But you have to hold yourself, not everyone of those present here can endure one of your tantrums.

Carteon look at Marshack with grief —Why you didn't destroy them?!.

Marshack remain in silence, and Carteon rapidly turns his sight to the brown floor —My apologies Bverxkka, i know you respect Ark Duke Wickman, even when he is weaker and less intelligent than you.

—You are correct. Marshack's voice denotes he is not a heartless Hûrngöth, after all, the Species has 3 of those »—You and Aezza are correct, if i were more apt knowing and controlling my emotions, i am sure, that i would have challenge or going against the Ark Duke decision.

—You still were a child, you berely don't count as one, it is improper of me to say or question you on this regard. Pained, Carteon confess, but Marshack disagree.

—No, even being a child, i have 71% certainty of something similar could occur, and remain motionless, worst, i was absolutely oblivious, as the Anarchist Criminals that enter our Institute, or the Unmentionable Brightness.

»—Doesn't matter how much better i am in comparison to any of you, i am still one, and clearly, i can't do it alone.

—You are not alone; Assure Carteon but Marshack posture denotes an evident "Seriously", the former understand and corrects himself fast —I mean, you are alone, "Single", but not on your own.

—He is accurate Bverxkka; Comment Alaney and aggregates »—So can i borrow the Stupid Callius and retrieve the Enzymes?.

—There is the usual Alaney …. ; Mentioned Carteon laughing »—Too immersed in her research to enjoy life a little.

She replies —I'm doing it, because it can save a lot of Hûrngöth lives … ; Alaney turns towards Norren inquisitive »—Your brother knew this was going to occur?.

The Hûrngöth is taken out of guard —No!, he is studying the Enzyme before the Unmentionable Brightness!.

—His brother lost a "Lover" on that event; Marshack intervention surprises Alaney, not only he knows about someone else life, because he use the word "Lover" and not "Partner".

—My apologies Bastille. Alaney is quite harsh with words but if she is wrong, admit it on the spot, as most Hûrngöth with two feline pupils per eye.

—What is this?!; Peatell voice resounds with excitement and preoccupation »—Why can i see on every direction at the same time?!, and how do i stop it?!, is annoying!.

Carteon laugh a bit —Is because you are using the [Bicromy]. Marshack added —And open your eyes.

Peatell does what both said and —It is worst!, now i see further away in front of me!.

—That is the way [Bicromy] works. Alaney remark.

—Is too invasive!; State Peatell, and Callius respond —Then don't look at your Partner, or are you ready to see her naked?.

Peatell gets speachless and Norren laugh his lungs out of him with Carteon.

—What is so funny?. Asked a female voice, the laugh stop and Carteon tilt his head towards the responsible —Sister!.

The female is no other than Etessa, an Academic Eminence (Æ) oriented towards Energy Application, specificly on battle related subjects.

Her long metallic hazelnut wavy hair is completely different to his brother as the turquoise glowing eyes with two feline pupils, the build she possess is ample and remain extremely femenine even with all the extra musculature.

Differently to others, she is wearing a pearl brownish suit that covers her body from the nape to the feet, including the chin and a bit of the pomuls, denoting the silhouette she has without letting anything to the imagination.

»—Where did you get that outfit?. Inquire Carteon and his sister says —Is the Suit used by the Oldest Hûrngöth?.

—Weren't just straps?. Mentioned Callius and Alaney is excited again —How do you activate its function?!.

Etessa reply —I didn't, i was wearing it already as usual, and turns this way when the pain strikes.

—T-This m-means!; Alaney stutters unable to express her excitement and Marshack state —Indeed, we acquire access to the full extent related to the Oldest Technology of our ancestors.

The vehicles!; Said Callius, Alaney and Etessa have the same thought —The database!. As Carteon —The External Synaptic Processor we couldn't use!.

—Indeed, the "Slaidt" is on our reach as every "Record" and "Log's" they leave behind for the generations to come.

Marshack demeanor evoke obedience and those around him notice it »—Gorng, take Aezza and gather the Enzymes fast, then check the vehicles capabilities.

»—Hayon, with your Partner decode all you can from the Registers of the Oldest Hûrngöth, and localize the coordinates of the Psychic Message.

»—Dankner, go with Bastille and retrieve all exhibitions from the museums, not only weapons, what ever is related to the distant past, regardless size, form or material.

»—Deriell, investigate this Energys, i want to know everything about them, and when Aezza returns from her lab, i want four Suits ready to be used, Hayon is going to help with the monitoring and link …

—You are going to …?; Inquire Alaney but Marshack interrupt her —No, "WE" are going to check "That" planet and the coordinates afterwards …
