“Nayix, I would appreciate it if you’d come to my office. It’s important.”
READ MOREThe dual multi-colored suns had just risen over the horizon on the tiny planet Zarine—a hospitable world in a previous time that lost three-quarters of its living space after an asteroid hit. Antos Lexion, the Supreme Monarch of Plumaria—a title given to him when his father passed to his Eternal Kingdom—didn’t relish the upcoming talk he needed to have with his son. The slight breeze his pacing created caused the feathers covering his humanoid body to flutter from light blue to dark blue. He had made a tough decision. One he knew his son would meet with plenty of protests. However, no complaint—big or small—would be enough to sway him from his position. The entire Plumarian race, now living under the expansive dome they’d created to protect them from Zarine’s harsh, post-asteroid tundra and provide them with a livable atmosphere, was at considerable risk that could spell their doom. Waiting for his son’s arrival, he sat behind his Zarinian crystal desk in the center of the room.
A gentle knock on the closed door roused him from his introspection. “Come in.” With a soft swish, the entrance slid open.
Nayix Lexion, Prince of Plumaria and Antos’s son, poked his head through the open portal and responded to his sire’s request. “You asked for me, Father?”
Antos nodded. “I did, Nix. It’s urgent. Otherwise, I would not have disturbed you. Why don’t you take a seat? We haven’t spoken in quite a while.”
Nix sighed and took a seat on the couch situated against the far wall of the office. His body in motion, the silver plumes covering his humanoid body, fluttered in the draft. “What is it you wish to speak about?”
COLLAPSE
