TELKAN FORGE WORLDS

Our entire population is in mourning.

So many of us believed he would reappear, or that he would arise again, wrapped in immortality.

One of the Younger Biological Apostles.

It seems strange that he died, of old age, asleep, on the front porch of his little house in the country.

PUBVIAN DOMINION

That is a good way to go.

And rare for a warrior.

One of his friends put his boots on him.

There's rumor the other Biological Apostles were there, along with the Detainee and the Digital Omnimessiah.

No proof, though. Not that anyone's going to ask the Ringerbreaker Patron.

The Ringerbreaker Patron and the Biological Apostles supposedly just buried him in his backyard, next to his wife, with a shovel.

We had to have a big ceremony and 'bury' him in the tomb that we had built for his wife.

Some people feel resentful about that.

He was a big deal to your culture. They feel like part of him was stolen from them.

It's normal.

Older Telkan understand it.

It's the younger ones and the politicians that feel like something was stolen from them.

It's weird.

We heard Inertia was there.

At least we have a confirmed sighting of him.

That'll have the greenies in an uproar.

In a way, it feels, finally, like the Second Precursor War is over.

Is that weird?

No. The passing of the icons of that era means that the era is passing on.

In a way, it saddens me.

He and Brentili'ik spoke often of reconciliation between their people and mine.

No word in several years.

Nobody knows why.

Well, no evidence of appearance.

There's rumors. Claims of knowing someone who knows someone who knows someone.

No hard evidence of him appearing in decades.

Not since the Shade Wars wound up.

LANAKTALLAN GRAZING FIELD OF THOUGHT

Perhaps, with the passing of the heroes, the disappearance of the Immortals, and the withdrawal of the Digital Omnimessiah, it is a sign that we should do for ourselves rather than rely on others.
