8/2/2019 The Council of Lew Alton
1/1
The man slowly drifted into consciousness as he did so realities
around him changed.he came to realization that he was shifting
between the worlds of dream and awake but yetsome other force was
calling him, beckoning to another place. Not spirit world where he
so oftenworked as a tower trained laranist nor even the netherworld
in between but to a deep darkrecessed pocket of the dangerous
borderlands where all the know worlds and many unknownworlds cross
in a twisting braid fashion proving that all existences and
non-existences are
interwoven fabric.As he sensed the urgency of the caller he also
comprehended it was his destiny to
respond so he rightly answered the call. Drifting towards his
unseemly destiny he watched asmany realities fell before him. Pasts
he did not know and Futures he would not see swirledthrough his
head leaving endeavouring impressions. He came to stand before the
podium andcouncil table of a Great Tribunal. Am I to be Judge? And
If so for what actions? Past, Present,or Future? He only thought
the words but heard broadcast as if he spoke them aloud.

firmness of leadership and the compassion of understanding. The

very alarmed position of powerand authority despite it his obvious
destiny for such.
Just then the sourounding shifted some and the entire council
murmured and the HeadCouncilman rose to his feet. Regis Hastour, we
sense you recognize me or my presence. Doyou now know who I am?
I do not, though I know your Voice and believe I should know
you.My Brother, You do right to recognize my voice, but despite you
know my person you
do not know me.Before Regis could wrap his mind around the words
to attempt to unravel the riddle the
Voice continued, If you will allow us to to begin in the
precursory introduction several questionswill be answered b ut many
more will rise from that knowledge. We all know you, or of youRegis
Hastour King of the Realms, We are....well, let me begin by
introducing myself as you
and I have never met and never shall outside this exsitence. No,
perhaps understanding whatthis place is and how it affects you
maybe the best place to begin. So you must forgive myaddress you
without formal introductions. My Lord Regis, I use thes as you are
of strickingsimilarity to my actual Lord Regis, atleast when he was
you ripe young age. I know, I know morequestions already. But, I
