Eleven

Cold and Focused

The Matlarian guild dated back to the old days, when the Evris had left Tejen, their original world.

Aliens came to invade Tejen in the year 7 before this era. They found more than what they’d bargained for because, although the Evris had no technology to speak of, they had something more powerful: magic. The ability to control energy. After destroying their enemy, they studied the ships left behind.

The first to leave wasn't spoken of. Hart was well schooled; he'd gotten the best education one could get on Ithel and his family had enough funds to own an extensive library. Even then, he didn't know much of her. They called her Darkness, and it was told that after single-handedly killing every alien invader in one devastating blow, she simply hopped on one of their ships and figured out how to take it off planet.

Hart guessed that there was more to the story. He'd been fascinated by Darkness the very first time he read about her as a teenager, but after his power had awoken inside him, she became a real obsession. Not only because she was a mage, but because she was the mage that started it all. The reason their kind was now feared and hunted.

Still, he never found many facts; there were myths, legends, and songs, however.

Darkness settled in their sector, the Ratna Belt. By the year 29 of this era, they were ready to explore the unknown universe and many mages opted to follow the trail of the all-powerful female, calling her their leader.

Most among the leaders of the mage order, the Wise, remained on Tejen, although some decided to explore the universe with the Tejenian contingent. Those built the foundations of the Empire.

At the time, both sides included quite a few mages. Some regular Evris opted to build their own government in a system far removed from the imperial reach, and away from the Ratnarian. At the very core, they'd been moved by a desire to be free of all influence, all constraints. Soon, it became clear that the Matlarians were greedy, cruel, self-important. As they had no one to fear, no one to keep them in line, they terrorized everyone within their reach, enslaving the life forms in their system.

They should have been of no consequence, had they remained far away, but while Matlar was far, their influence had grown over the last twelve hundred years, reaching every part of the galaxy.

Hart wanted them gone from the Ratna Belt. Even if the likes of Enlil disappeared, there would be no peace, no safety for anyone while the slavers, kidnappers, rapists, and scum of Matlar roamed their worlds.

He'd always been passionate about finding them, drawing them into the light, and chasing them from their worlds, but over the next few months, Hart focused on his quest almost obsessively. He desperately needed the distraction.

The first time Dara Rexis had disappeared, he'd been younger, and he hadn't yet understood how rare their instant chemistry was. He'd dismissed her as one pretty girl who'd run from him.
