The final test y was si that was just heavy enough that it nearly exceeded his abilities and see how long he could hold it, or enduring increasing aain the results surprised the researchers

If noriven a measure of one for their stamina and willpower, Cloudhaas a three orman was a model wastelander, at least in terms of mannerismsHe was fanatical, tenacious down to his bones, and even when brought to the brink of death his as unbending

Cloudhawk,oing on for fuckin’ forever! What the hell were they doing?!

Roste, leaning heavily on his cane, led his three subordinates into the testing chaarded Cloudhaith entirely different eyes, like the treasure hunter who’d found his buried richesHe drew on his several decades of preparation, careful not to reveal his deep excitesHe carefully sized Cloudhawk up as they entered“Tell anism in the wastelands?”

Cloudhawk found the old scholar’s question baffling“Who wouldn’t be?” He flippantly replied

Acadehed eer? Our biology is so fragile – we humans are so easily brokenThe smallest injury or illness could take away the ones we loveOnly the strong can protect that whichthis old man said sound so mysterious?

hellflower suddenly chimed in“As I recall, the Conclave of the Dark Ato in a shi+pment of materials from the elysian lands this afternoonNone of our other subjects would be able to handle the steroids, we can use theht” Roste answered without hesitationHe winced as another set of hacking coughs overcaain, turning them toward Hyena“Gather some people and head out to meet the Dark Atom partyOffer double the price they ask, and have Wolfblade bring more materials from the elysian lands”

“What the fuck are y’all planning?” Cloudhaas beco less co pretty da kept in the dark!”

Cloudhaas not one to believe that gifts were hThe Acadeiven hi to use precious erNone of this was cheap

This sent the old hsHis chest heaved and he fought for breathThis ti on his feet

“Don’t be so ungrateful!” Chilared at Cloudhawk, supporting Roste at the sahly of you, he wants to help! To have this sort of patronage would be a dream come true for ht his breath and waved his hand, entreating Chiarded Cloudhaith that cal man, you can see what condition I’m in”

Indeed the old rass in the windHe constantly see overHis hair was a thin mop of spindly white and his face carved deep with crisscrossing wrinklesHis skin was dry and stretched over his emaciated frameAll in all he looked hty years old, closer to dying than anything elseAt this age riches, honor, titles, influence… none of that rets, and a desire to leave this world with so as my final mark”

Cloudhawk half-believed the old man’s diatribe

“You have the power of a demonhunter, and tre and thusto hold back” He spoke to the young wastelander, full of earnestnessHe fought through another series of coughs“I give you power so that you can make this land betterYou are the final extension of oal to reach so I can die in peaceA success for the good of us all”

Cloudhawk couldn’t help but feelin the wastelands was no easy featAfter that speech he chose to wait and see ould occur

He gave voice to another s about?”

hellflower answered in place of the Acadees of the elysian lands, hiding from the ire of its denizensTheir current leader is Wolfblade, a wild and as fros of our ownThey earn a lot froainst the holy cities, and so make several trips to Blackwater Base to trade”

Seekers lurked in the elysian lands as well?

That was unexpected! Of all the denizens of the wastelands it was the Seekers the people of the elysian lands hated most bitterlyNot only were they Godless heathens, but they toyed with the unholy relics of the past while denying the supremacy of Godly menThey even refused to accept the divine histories as truth, ht

Was it even possible that this group, as incompatible to the elysian lands as fire and water, could survive in such hostile territory? How did they do it?

Cloudhaas always a victim to his curiosityHe directed his words towards Hyena, the one ould encounter the Dark Atoo with you?”

Hyena had been lost in absent thought when the young boy’s question piqued his attentionHis eyebrows shot up, and he looked at Roste for the old scientist’s determinationThe Acade was only at the gate of Blackwater Base and there was nowhere for Cloudhawk to fleeThey still needed the young man’s cooperation, his request was not unreasonableThe Acade him to satisfy his curiosity

“I’m a little tiredWe’ll finish here for now”

Roste was old and as such his vigor aningThey’d spent quite a long while in the process of these tests and though he was eager to continue his body would not capitulateThey were forced to postpone their efforts

Cloudhawk followed Hyena out of the testing chamberChimp was the last to exitHe shut the door, extracted a set of keys from his coat, and locked it behind them

Chimp was the laboratory’s director and also the Acadehter as Hyena, nor as astute as hellflower, but he was unfailingly loyal to the Acade responsible for all the confidential and important matters of the labHe held all the keys

A sweet breeze flit pasthellflower appeared by their side
