71 Gods and their children. (1/2)
”I see.... Your story is... disturbing. To say the very least.” Mawu frowns over our revelations. We are sitting together on a couch in our private quarters at Midpoint.
The ambassador was really surprised by our society. To say the very least. ”Walking through an entire world, populated by gods of all ages. I never would have dreamed about something like that.”
”Cool idea. Don't you think?” Seria dangles on a chair while she grins at Mawu.
”I must admit that some aspects of your society are very compelling. On the other side you seem to be a little hyperactive. I hope that not all kids are like you.” Mawu smiles at Seria.
”Oh! You should meet Sandra's quintuplets! You won't call me hyperactive any more. I will go and get them.” Seria jumps out of her chair and disappears.
The ambassadors smile drops. ”I will have to go. If you could escort me outside the void zone, I would be very thankful.” He looks at Celes and me with a pleading expression.
I grin at him. ”I understand. I will take you outside. Do you believe that your Alliance will adopt our way of living.”
Mawu purses his lips while thinking. ”I am not sure. But there will surely be people who would long for this world. How do you intend to deal with them?”
”If they aren't troublemakers, there will be no big problems. This world isn't heavily populated. And it would be no problem to duplicate our world. You just have to drag a solar system into a void zone and fill it with the souls of gods who don't want to go on.” -Me
Mawu nods. ”Though finding such individuals would take some time. But I guess it would be manageable. Gods aren't really under the pressure of time.”
I pat Mawu's shoulder and take us back to Asheim.
***Somewhere else in the endlessness of space***
”New entry into the log book: This is the HMS Explorer of Dolaria! We have tested our infinity drive and managed to jump directly to a star system just a few light years from our homeworld. We are now preparing to jump directly to the next star. We believe that it has a world with life. Finally we will be able to answer our most important question. Are we alone in the universe?”
”The complete crew of twenty people is doing fine. The ship took no damage from the first jump and we will proceed to our next destination.”
”We will also have proven the concept of the infinity drive! Riding on top of the energy junctions of the universe enables us to travel anywhere with instant speed! It's a revolution without comparison. For the prosperity of our great race and our world. End of log entry. By Captian Warner Hernei.”
”We are ready for the second jump sir.” -Technician
”Jump!” -Warner
Space distorts for a second and the HMS Explorer exits reality to re-enter it again in another solar system.
”Jump complete! We are exactly where we wanted to be.” -Technician
Warner enjoys the view on a foreign sun and a new world beyond them. There are many places to go to. The Dolarians will boldly go where nobody else ever went before! The great age of star travel was upon them. And he, Warner was the captain of the first ship to see those new worlds!
”Good! Start with our schedule. There are many scientific questions to be answered.” Warner stands up to leave the bridge. But that's the moment it happens.
)(WHO ENTERS MY DOMAIN!)(
The bridge shakes with a booming voice.
”What was that?” -Warner
”I don't know!” -Technician
)(Mortals! You trespassed where you shouldn't set your feet! Bow down and cover in fear before a superior being! And maybe the great Bobo will let you live.)(
”Get us out of here!” -Warner
”The ship doesn't even budge! We are stuck!” -Officer
Suddenly a flaming monster appears on the bridge. )(What Bobo wishes happens! Mortals shouldn't try to go against my wishes.)(
An officers draws a handgun and shoots at the monstrosity while others are trying to gain their distance. But the bullet just gets repelled and strikes the shooters knee. ”Aaaah!”
Bobo gives off a crazy laugh. )(The weapons of mortals are amusing. So how do you intend to repent?)(
”What are you!?” -Warner
)(I am the great Bobo! What I wish happens! Entertain me. So dance!)(
One of the Technician starts a really weird dance while waving his hips and shaking his arms. You can see in his eyes that he isn't acting of his own free will.
”Why are you doing this to us!” -Scientist
)(Get undressed and make a handstand!)(
The scientist promptly follows the order.
”Give an emergency alarm and seal all decks!” Warner jumps for a red button on a console. But an invisible force holds him up and still in the air.
)(And now. We will have a little fun!)(
