Inquisitors alighted the grav vehicles, flanked by several Eldar. The Harlequins looked grim, which was strange due to the masks on their faces hiding all emotion. The farseers that had accompanied them stepped off afterwards, their bodyguards holdiong their witch blades close. The gates of the Black Library scaled up above them. They had been blindfolded and psychically supressed during the journey through the webway. Taren quickly overcame his feelings of disorientation. Finally Alundirel spoke. will seperate off individually. There is much for each of you to see and learn. But each of you must do this alone," he said. The assembled Harlequins seperated themselves roughly two to each Inquisitor. Taren smiled weakly at the two flanking him. They simply stared on. Mentirius had come round on board one of the Grav vehicles, and was apprently a little hysterical about needing to get to the Black Library. Alundirel had comforted him, and Mentirius now looked the essence of composure. Around him four Harlequins had equally distanced themselves, each watching Mentirius closely. know about the tests I assume gentlemen," said Alundirel. All the assembled men nodded grimly. The *test* was virtually legendary. Not many humans ever passed the test. Those who did were considered honoured indeed. The Black Library was said to contain enough information on any subject to take four or five lifetimes to read and understand. Mentirius turned to Taren, and said "Here we are old friend! Upon the precipice. The razors edge. Here we learn ourselves better then ever before!" Excitement ouzed from every word. Mentirius composure was showing signs of cracking. He was anxious(sp?) to get inside. The Harlequins motioned for each Inquisitor to go a different was into the Library. The Inquisitors said their goodbyes to one another - after all it could have been the last time they would all see each other together like this. Taren sighed deeply, and walked onwards into the unknown. on you are pure enough to take the test said one of the Solitares. I go up to the gate and it opens before me so I walk in and with my first step I fall to a black room. Then my father steps out. Felix are you ready my father asks as the room changes into my old life on Necromunda. it stopped spinning I knew where I was. As I walked down the hall I tried to stop my self but once I reached the end I went through the door and drew my pistol. I aimed it at my father's head. tried to stop but I couldn't and just before I shot time froze and I was outside my body and my father was beside me then my father said why are you afraid I deserved it. I then said I know but I killed mother also she didn't do anything. know you passed you may go my son father said. I then walked foward and saw a Solitare waiting for me he lead me down the rows of crystals while chatting with me. He then turned ad took me to a crystal I put my hand on it like I had been here a million times. I had my hand on the crystal the Solitare brought a chair for me to sit in, then data on Chaos came up and I started to read. Some of the more important information was on how to destroy Daemons and how to control them. I then asked the Solitare can I have information on the daemon Ammon Dull? So the Solitare lead me to another crystal. put my hand on it and started to read I learned that it was haunting Mentritus and other information. I then asked to have information on Chaos? Once I got there I started to read and have only stopped for meals and to relive myself. with me A Harlequin says while I was reading so I got up and started to follow him. He led me to a crystal and I activated it and saw the information I was looking for so I sat and started to read while the Harlequin stood there. When he finally spoke he said put you hand right there. So when I did wires came out and attached to my head and pumped the information itno my head. Then the Harlequin said I am Alund I will be travelling with you for your safety. All I could do was nod. then asked for information on Balroz, he said just put your hand there . So when I did information on the Balroz flooded into my mind. I learned that they are a race of giagantic beasts that use primitive tools. Suddenly the library changed it had shelves of books. I then found a book on Dracon the Daemon. I picked it up and started to read. |
