《Humanity? HELL YEAH!!》Scarcity of truth

"What are you talking about? I don't know what is going on, how I got here, what reality is, what you two want, I don't know who is right and who is false.", Sigmund lamented.
The blue humanoid scoffed, while the red one kept staring at Sigmund without a change in its expression. "You are asking too much of me, there have been entire libraries of books written about all of your questions and it isn't my job to answer. I can just point you the way to the nearest library.", the blue one pointed out, he had crossed his arms.
The red one stayed silent.
"Can you just answer one question? I really need some guidance here, because all I knew is wrong apparently.", Sigmund had begun to ignore the red one, it did not communicate and behaved like a zombie, the likelyhood that it really was a 'scambot' seemed quite high.
"Not really. As you said, you can't trust either of us, because you don't know anything. How do you know I don't just lie to you? You are way too naive for your own good.", Blue sneered. "OK? Are you really trying to help me? I don't see it.", Sigmund mirrored Blue and crossed his arms. Blue sighed and Red began to repeat the 'instructions'.
When Red was done, Blue said "I don't have to do this, but you'll be very grateful to me if you look back to this point in time. If you follow the instructions of the scambot, you'll be converted into a scambot, believe me or believe me not, it is your wager." Blue rubbed over its temples, which made a scraping noise "If you really want to stand a chance, move that way", Blue pointed at a door, "and you can educate yourself in the library.".

Reds orb changed its color and a different, human voice spoke from Red.
"That is what he says. I know his type, if you go through that door, there will be an ambush waiting for you. They will kill you and dismantle you for your organs. Follow my instructions, his accomplices are probably already on their way towards you. I am your only chance at survival.", Red warned.
The sudden change seemed completely random, but Red suddenly was no longer a non-factor, the equivalent of a headache without actual pain washed over Sigmund.
He began to play with a wager, if Blue was right, following Red would be very bad, if Red was right, following Blue would be very bad. He wanted neither.
"If I were to run away from here, would any of you stop me?", Sigmund probed.
Both of them spoke over each other, eager to talk, but that just meant that he did not understand any of them. What a dilemma, and he was under time pressure.
"STOP! Both of you shut up. If I see more blue people, I will take the deal of Red. Both of you stay back from me. Answer my questions, but not at the same time.", Sigmund had raised his voice significantly, and it had worked.
He then turned off his attention, as the resulting bickering on who would talk first began.
The situation was defused for now, no one could act against him according to the established facts. Reality still was unknown, maybe one of them said the truth, maybe both said the truth sometimes and lied at another time or withheld important information.
Trusting any of them fully would be foolish, he wasn't as naive as Blue implied.
There would be information to be gotten out of these two and if they attacked both, he would run. But as long they kept it civil, he would profit from staying here.

Chosen of Silver
In the lands of Neden, children with gates--birthmarks able to accept and hold the power of soulstones--are collected every five years, when they reach age fifteen to nineteen. It is nearly time for the newest cohort to be celebrated and then conscripted, and with that day looming, those whose lives are about to change wait impatiently for their destiny to arrive...or try to find a way to avoid it: Cal, a refugee from the nation of Caas, doesn’t want to go to Kellingherth to gain the powers of man, beast, or element, and he certainly doesn’t want to join the war efforts after that. The only things he’s dying for are a good drink, dance, and girl, in no particular order. His best friend Raff prefers his sweat to come from a hard day's training than an evening carousing and wishes Cal did, too. He wants to accomplish more with his life than becoming a simple palace sentry like his estranged father and will do whatever it takes to get there. And they are just two of many. When the tenuous peace of the realm is threatened by the arrival of an old enemy, these young chosen will likely be swept up in events rather than prevent them, but the future cannot be rushed or escaped, only experienced.

Tales of Light
These are a collection of short stories following different narratives. It's more like a playground and experimenting with ideas or subjects I don't want to write a complete story about. It's also a place to test my skills as a writer. Think of it as a notebook of un/finished ideas. Feel free to pick and choose which chapters to read. They aren't related unless specifically said otherwise. Just relax, enjoy, and cringe at goofy stories. There may be a timeline of events, or not... who knows?
