Chaos in a Bottle
![skt7LM.png](https://img.nickpic.host/skt7LM.png)
And still, these were people that had wanted their freedom to remain as we were. Their pride would not let them willingly join another empire, yet their pleas to be left alone had gone unheard by the Empire of Rannon, a rising empire that the Agents of Chaos had faced before. And following their victory on Kuat and Alderaan, the Agents were more than happy to be of help to someone closer to home, that carried it reduced mission related pressure since the eyes of the galaxy would not likely to be on them while there, at least at first.
This time, their meeting with the Empire of Rannon had been brief and swift. The Rannonians, remembering them from Zoscha, had mostly tried to flee from the Agents, and the few remaining forces were too weak to put up any sort of resistance. The disappointment on some of the Agents' faces from how simply it had been this time was easy to see, and they had begun to pack their gear up, preparing for extraction.
One of the groups (this means you, all yee Agents of Chaos who wish to participate in this story) was standing in the middle of a village to do, after having prepared it for a battle that had never ended up happening. The children of the village had begun to step out of their houses, running and screaming with excitement. Their parents tried to catch them and bring them back homes, sending an endless amount of apologetic looks towards the Agents, but it seemed that nothing would settle the noisy brats.
It was only when the village's elder slowly came out of her own hut and sat down on a large rock by the center, that all the children moved towards her, and when her story began, they hung on every word, not a single one uttering a sound to break the magic of story time.
"Many generations ago," the old woman said, "Ondoher faced repeated attempts of conquering. We were many more people then, and while others knew our planet had nothing to offer them, a lot of them wanted to take us as slaves! We fought, and we fought hard, but during the Monsoons of the Red, it seemed as though we would at last lose, and Ondoher would find herself empty of her own people, left to die and fall off the edge of space.
The people of Ondoher prayed day and night for aid from the Gods, but none ever came. Women delivered babies that did not survive their first year, and men died, younger and younger. There was no hope.
But then a Warrior sprouted, from the village of Adha'me, which no longer exists. His name… Boraboos! It was said that he had been a weak child, that he had not been expected to survive his teenage years. But oh, he did! And that was because Boraboos, had found the Stone of Tholouse, and had bathed it with his own life's force. Having given the life force to it, the Stone of Tholouse made Boraboos invincible, and he began to grow tall and strong, fighting back against all our enemies. The village of Adha'me had not known such safety in a long time, and slowly, more warriors began to flock to it, wishing to team up with Boraboos, to fight back and remove the threat of the enemy forever!
Boraboos showed them his stone, and every man and woman who wished to fight gave some of their life force, and in return, they too became strong! Within the year, Ondoher was safe, and until the Empire of Rannon came some months ago, we have been safe for most of this time."
The children, filled with their ooh's and ahh's, squealed at the story, their tempers calmed down enough so that their parents could control them now. Slowly, the village center began to clear, but the old woman remained there, looking at the Agents of Chaos who had still been packing through it, some of the perhaps having even been listening in.
"It is not a myth, you know," she said to them with a toothless smile, "Baraboos was a man who had truly lived, and his stone had existed. When he died, he was buried with it. You will find the cave with the stone several miles from us, for we are now what Adha'me was many generations ago. I know that we have offered you no payment or retribution for keeping us from being enslaved. And we do not have enough people to send you servants. But let this not be an empty charity. Go to the cave, kill the spirits of the restless who guard it, and take the stone. We do not use it anyway."
