August 2013: Emotions Unbound
It was a challenge to understand. At first it had appeared the Curator of Torment had been conducting experiments allowing emotional freedom in fellow Virindi. However, a closer look into those experiments revealed much more. The Vision of Horror attempted to organize all of the information as he returned to the council with his current findings.
Entering the council chambers, the Vision of Horror attempted to relay his scattered research, “Council, I bring the current report on the Curator’s experiments. Although the information is still being collected it suggests that –“
“We have more pressing matters to attend to unenlightened.”
“Sightings of Rynthid have occurred on Dereth.”
The Vision of Horror knew there had to be some confusion, “Rynthid or did the Curator simply succeed in filling Virindi with emotions that could not be controlled?”
“Rynthid. There was no mistaking the chaos of these creatures.”
“The Rynthid are trapped on the opposite edge of space. The council even said there was no way to return the Reaver of Dreams from that prison.” The war between the Virindi and the Rynthid which forged the group of Lothus was lodged deep within the singularity in order to ensure the danger they posed would never be forgotten.
“Thus the urgency in dealing with this matter. All resources are being directed toward uncovering the method which allowed these defects to arrive.”
“You are to join the research immediately.”
“Understood council. If we are finished, I wish to get started.”
“Dismissed.”
The Vision of Horror already knew right where to begin. Findings from the Curator’s experiments had suggested quite a bizarre possibility that didn’t make sense or seem possible until now. The Curator was trying, or as it now appeared, succeeded, to open a gateway to the Rynthid void.
Why would he want to unleash such a terror? A terror which had taken a high price and eons to force it back within the deepest reaches of space. One could never hope to control such chaotic creatures which lacked any sense of logic or reason. At most, one could only plan to unleash such a wild beast onto an enemy while trying to escape before it was too late.
Or maybe the Curator was more astute than the Vision of Horror had suspected. Could it be that he had seen the possibility of his own banishment and attempted to create a gateway for his return. And if so, could this gateway allow for the release of the Reaver of Dreams, setting justice back on the correct course?
