Arvie: “Master, I could decrypt a part of the data. It’s a message: Stand in the middle of the cabin, face the door and shout the prophecy.”
Prophecy? What prophecy?
Arvie: “Maybe one of the quotes that we found in the knowledge bank.”
Yes, some of the quotes seem like prophecy. Let’s try them one by one, so I stand here, and face the door: “The second heir shall prevail!”
What’s that? I feel another connection to my mind console, just like you.
Arvie: “Master, this is normal. After initiation anyone within range can connect to your mind console and start a mental chat, public or private, depending on the available upgrades and the needs of the participants.”
But you were connected before that.
Arvie: “Yes, sir, we had a unique connection that used a different channel. Master, shouldn’t we investigate the new connection further?”
Yes, who’s that?
Console: “I am Kyreburrae, the central manager of this cabin.”
Central manager? Wow, did not expect that in the middle of nowhere. So, what was the purpose of this cabin?
Kyree: “This was the home of a lone hunter named Tuross, but was abandoned when he went away about three galactic millennia ago.”
Apparently, I am here for a reason. What do you have for me?
Kyree: “Let me scan you... Yes, you must be the target of my new routine. I have a gift and a message for you.”
What do you mean by the new routine?
Kyree: “This cabin has been hidden for three galactic millennia, awaiting the return of Tuross, but a few cycles ago a masked and scan-blocked person came here and provided valid authorization, so I opened the door.
The masked person placed some supplies here, upgraded me with an advanced bionic scanner, and gave me an item and a new routine to be executed and went away.”
Do you hear our conversation Arvie? This information replaces the mystery of the supply box with the mystery of the masked person.
Arvie: “Yes master, I can here you, this is not a private chat. It seems that the person is connected to the ones that have sent you here in the first place.”
I hope to solve that mystery eventually. Kyree, was that a man?
Kyree: “I don’t know, sir. The body proportions and bearing was more like a man, but his console’s conversation tone was set to neutral.”
All right, you said you had something for me. Show me.
A hidden window appears on the front wall toward a small chamber, well-lit to show a great looking bow and a few batches of arrows. I move toward the window, hold the bow in my hand, and sense a connection with it. Suddenly I feel excited, but more focused.
Kyree: “This is a unique bow, called Puithoron. It spins the arrows and makes them more penetrating. It also boosts your hand-eye coordination and the speed of your reflexes a bit. It’s a present for your initiation.”
Oh wow! What a bow, but I do not know how to use it.
Kyree: “The message is about that problem: You can return to your home or stay here as this cabin is yours, but if you want the next part of the message, you have to live as a hunter for a while, until you are completely proficient with the bow. After that you can ask me again for the next part.
When I scanned you earlier, I sensed a tracking head enhancement. To be a hunter, you have to initiate a local map of this whole area in your data banks, and that head enhancement would let me give you a routine to keep track of any place that you visit and know what wild life is more likely to appear in those areas.381Please respect copyright.PENANA3tEZ7WrtPm
You can also trade animal parts with the local people for some local currency or galactic credits, which might come handy later.”
Tell me about the previous owner of this cabin.
Kyree: “Tuross was young when he left, so he might still be alive. He traded with the highland village Benludroyn fort, north-west of here. Let us create a local map and I will mark the old fort’s position on the map… Done.
No visitor ever came here, but it seemed that he was friendly with some people in the old fort.
By now the Faen raiders might have destroyed the fort, but maybe, a few of those people might still be alive.
After initiation, you should be able to keep a list of your current important goals and some required information about them and sense your progression in them. Now you can add a new goal to find more about Tuross in the old fort, if it still exists.
By the way, this cabin belongs to you now, and I’m assigned as your servant, so you can come here whenever you want and ask me about anything, and I will try my best to assist you.”
Thanks, I’ll do it. Tell me more about Faen raiders.
Kyree: “Faen is the second most popular race of this moon. They are about 15 percent of the population, second to Ezollaid, which are about 80 percent. They usually consist of low lives or outlaws and are the majority of the raiders ravaging the highlands and outland woods.”
Thanks, that’s all for now.
Kyree: “As the owner of this cabin you own 67 galactic credits left in the cabin storage, and a few leftover trinkets. I can transfer the credits to you, if you like.”
All right, do it.
Kyree: “Transfer completed.”
