The Archivist's Bargain
The Deep Null The Obsidian WastesTime beyond human understandingThe golden sphere pulsed softly in the dark canyon The golden sphere pulsed softly in the dark canyon The golden sphere pulsed soft light which illuminated the broken black glass of The Obsidian WastesEthan knelt beside the massive planetary core The planetary core extended from the ground as Ethan knelt downward to reach its area He cleaned his face by using his right hand which had been burned to touch his forehead before he used his hand to wipe off the sweat and ash from his forehead He breathed heavily from his chest because the cold air coming from the Deep Null made his bare skin feel extreme discomfort His body displayed all his chest muscles and skin when he showed his body after losing his canvas jacketHe could not transport a shuttle-sized battery through the endless graveyard of dead ships.If he left the core exposed then another Null-Walker or a group of scavengers would eventually discover its location
The Echoes of the Erased
The Deep Null. The Obsidian Wastes.Time: Unquantifiable.Rust Court disappeared in a veil of grey staticalness. Ethan went into the black alone.The Obsidian Wastes got the name. The scenery shifted to a brush-like, white porcelain dust, which had been smoothed out, to a rocky, razor-like, black-glass labyrinth. It was a broken mirror, stretching miles, that was the ground, and on which the dead, featureless sky was seen. Great pieces of obsidian protruded upwards like the fangs of a submerged monster.Each step had to be very precise. The rims of the glass were also mono-molecular, and could cut through the sole of his scavenged boots, which were heavy. The atmosphere was thin, and unnaturally cold with a sharp metallic smell.Ethan brought his single right hand closer to his chest, to tighten his canvas jacket. His sternum that had been fused with the Dissonance Core was the sole source of body heat. The turbulent eddy of crimson and blue energy surging within the black neutronium
The Rust Court
The Deep Null. The Shifting Wastes.Time: Unquantifiable.Ethan passed through the cemetery of reality. Each movement threw a jet of white porcelain and grey ash into the airless stagnant atmosphere. The sky was still a ceiling of dead statique, which did not give up any sun, or stars, nor even time.His physical body was a wreck taken to its extreme extent. His phantom pain in the left arm, in which he had cut off his shoulder, beat with a laborious, nauseating time. He held the heavy canvas jacket with his single right hand over his chest. He had to cover the spasming bloody storm of crimson and blue energy that was burning within his new Dissonance Core. His stomach-heart felt the crater of black neutronium which had merged with his sternum glowing with scorching heat to keep the freezing temperature of the dimension at bay.He was required to locate Elena and Jarek. The desperate thought died back in his head in a loud and frenzied flash. He pictured his mother's face. He could re
The Graveyard of Reality
The Deep Null. Sector Unknown. Time: Unquantifiable.Ethan experienced a gradual return of all his emotional sensations which made him feel pain throughout his entire body.His body experienced coldness after the electricity left him. He opened his single cybernetic eye. The optical sensor tried to adjust to the brightness of the surrounding environment by creating its calibration process which resulted in a total visual blockage.The sky above him appeared incorrect. It did not display the complete blackness from space nor the constantly changing color pattern found in the Pale Rider's memory field. The area appeared as an unbroken stretch of dull grey static which had no visible features. It appeared as an inactive television channel that extended infinitely throughout the entire sky.Ethan used his right hand to raise himself off the ground. His left arm's absence caused him to lose balance which forced him to spread his feet apart to maintain stability.He looked down at his chest
The Ultimate Variable
The Domain of the Rider. The Obsidian Arena.Time: Irrelevant.There was no sound of a clash of the weapons. It caused a jolt of pure and contradictory truth.Ethan had thrown himself into his right arm with all the weight remaining. The ruby-red spike of the Dissonance Engine scraped his baton of polar ice along the Pale Rider. Jolts of opposing physical laws rained down on the black obsidian glass which lay beneath their feet. At the point where the red sparks fell the glass melted into tumultuous liquid. Where the starlight came, the floor had only to stop existing, and left areas of perennial nothingness.The Pale Rider did not strain. His porcelain mask stood as motionless as an expression of desperate, sweat-covered face of crippled hybrid in front of it.One stone against a tidal wave, you come, Pale Rider, said. His voice was right into the skull of Ethan, chilled and absolute.The Rider flicked his midnight wrist, and broke the weapon lock. The baton of the starlight fell dow
The Graveyard of Minds
The Domain of the Rider. The Event Horizon.Time: Irrelevant.The Void-Skiff did not crash down. It was ejected violently out of the dark matter singularity and struck a surface, which was like the sound of breaking glass.The blow cut the port side engine off the hull. The vessel went skidding out of control, and, on a surface of fictionless space, crashed into a great mass of jagged barrier. The heavy containment shutters appeared and burst out. Straight down into the cargo hold glassed down into utter darkness, excepting the wrath-filled crimson light of the Dissonance Engine, and the dim, fainting light in the chest of Ethan.Ethan was dying through the pilot seat. He struck the ground with a crash and his right shoulder bore the impact. He choked and tasted the acrid smoke of electrical fires.Report, Ethan ordered, and forced himself to a knee. He was pressing against the shaft of the halberd, which was black neutronium.Lord Gear was heard murmuring through one of the fractured
