Somewhere in the bowels of the Monarch-Class Libremancer, Maelstrom opened his eyes and smiled. Chouncilor Bogosian was now rattled and uncertain, exactly what the llyriac wanted. Very soon the Chouncilor would suffer for his many transgressions against the Korvenites and then die by Maelstrom’s hand. Until then, cracking at the human’s resolve would keep Maelstrom satisfied.

The Korvenite floated several metrids in the air; shirtless and cross-legged. Sweat rolled down his marble-white torso in shiny beads. The act of stretching his mind so far across the stars was physically exerting to say the least. But he barely noticed, feeling only a natural high from his handiwork. That sensation doubled when he looked around the room and marveled at the heart of the Korvenite Unilink.

Behind him sat a vast wall structure of pulsating light. On it were 48 of his brethren, four rows of twelve, all in a trance-like state. Specialized IVs that supplied nourishment were plugged into their wrists. These were his most powerful Mindspeakers, all of them committing their energy to maintaining the Korvenite Unilink that connected the KIF regardless of location, whether they were light-years away or right in front of each other. The wall amplified the abilities of these Korvenites twenty-fold, all whom he called Adherents. And if any grew tired, there were 25 others that could step in while they rested.

Any Korvenite with Mindspeak could form a personal Unilink with another or a small group. But for the scattered group like the Korvenite Independence Front, having an assemblage constantly maintaining the Unilink was essential. Any of his brethren could connect and disconnect to the Unilink at will, no matter how far away they were from the core linkage. It allowed Maelstrom instant contact with his Retributionaries when they were on their crusades or the ability to reach out and torture the Chouncilor of the GUPR. Bathed in the radiance of the Unilink and the Adherents who powered it soothed Maelstrom. The forty-eight Korvenites all had one focus, one goal. The Unilink.

[Lord Maelstrom.] Oreis’s thoughts came loud and clear in the llyriac’s mind. [We’ve arrived at Bimnorii. A shuttle is ready to land on the surface when you are.]

Maelstrom smiled again and floated back to solid ground. He stretched out his hand and telekinetically pulled his shirt on the floor toward him. The clothing flew up into his waiting grasp.

[I’ll be there shortly. Get some of our best Retributionaries and llyriacs in training.]

Maelstrom slipped into his shirt and exited the room. As he drew near the Libremancer launch bay, his heart pounded with elation. The llyriac always felt this way when going to free more of his own kind.
