"The Prophecy of your new knowledge will bring you Deliverance while you walk The Roads to Madness with No Sanctuary. Your soul will be left in the Open a victim to my Promises, lies. You will find me Anytime/Anywhere."
There is a rumor of a massive asteroid existing deep within the confines of the Revenant Nebula in Omicron-82. Past the ever changing purple, red or green fogs, in the clearing of the Nebula, there is a dark structure built into the towering dark asteroid. The Outcasts refer to it as "The Temple of the Revenant"...
***
A lone figure stumbled into the colossal dark hall disturbing the silence of the single beam of bright light shooting down from the ceiling a hundred meters above. The light was shining down on a single structure approximately two meters high - the console of the Revenant Central Computer.
Silence.
The rank markings on the rags of the figure wearing them were showing a Kusari Fleet Admiral. His eyes flashed quick with fear. The primordial fear of a hunted animal. He staggered down the path towards the two-meter structure in the middle trying to distinguish was he hearing another set of footsteps echoing from the opposite side of the hall. Were the tortured ears playing tricks on him? Did the adrenaline overdose in his veins sharpen his senses? He stopped. The echoes of footsteps faded out quickly.
Silence.
The ragged Kusari Admiral started to walk slowly until he reached the central structure. As he came to stop in front of it, the light turned off to be replaced by another and a hologram appeared. Tall, muscular male figure, long white hair and a coat waving in the virtual wind. A pair of bright blue eyes full of ancient sadness like he was carrying the weight of the Universe on his shoulders. A pleasant, calming female voice with a vague hispanian accent spoke:
"Full name: Christian Andersen. Callsign: Obsidian. Age: 26. Place of Birth: Knossos, Planet Crete. Height: 183 cm. Weight: 90 kg. Hair Color: White. Eye Color: Bright Blue." it stopped while the echoes faded away into the darkness.
"Formerly known as Artizar "Artemis" Santiago." the voice continued "The leader of a strictly female Corsair elite fighter wing - The Amazons of the Night. Known for her ferocity and the ruthless killings. She was also known among the Corsairs as She-Devil for she was showing no mercy or remorse whatsoever. There are stories among the ones who flew on her wing of her screams on the comms in the moment when she was giving the coup de grace sounding like she was having multiple orgasms. All blackbox recordings of her sorties have mysteriously vanished. Upon Enlightenment, Darkstar granted her a wish." the voice finished.
The echoes of the last word were fading into the darkness as the light twitched for a few seconds leaving the stupefied man standing in the black nothingness to ponder on what he saw and heard. When the light came back, the ragged Admiral realized there was something different about the hologram standing in front of him. It was too late when he realized what it was. His vision exploded into a bright flash of red light to become total blackness and an agonizing all-consuming burst of pain. He opened his mouth to scream as his eyeballs were pouring out of their sockets down Obsidian's fingers but that scream never came out as his vocal cords were cut by the sharp blade in Obsidian's other hand. The next thing the Admiral felt was his internal organs making their way out of his torso followed by a sharp pain moving up to his sternum where it intensified. He fell into the bliss of unconsciousness. Obsidian pulled the blade out, holding the body just by one hand with it's fingers inside the skull as if it were a bowling ball. No emotion. Only his sad eyes watched the now seemingly lifeless body fall down on the floor as he pulled his fingers out of the man's head.
Obsidian put a gold coin on each gapping black hole in the Admiral's head. He made sure the Admiral was still breathing and walked away slowly... footsteps echoing in the darkness.
"I was the Daughter of The Malevolent. I became the Son of The Fallen. The Morning Star."
"I am The Obsidian One."
