Today is Sunday...The temple opens its doors.

Kobolds are lined up on both sides of the central aisle. The interior resembles a gothic cathedral but with unusually high dimensions, and in place of the altar there was a finely carved double door representing a hydra.

Dwarves who had come in a delegation had brought offerings on wagons...

The chancellor and General Mondeville were amazed... There was a subway! A subway under the temple, connected to the Dwarf fortress further east and north...

The car appeared through a door and moved towards the altar/black door which opened, revealing absolute darkness...

For the first time, I was human and dressed in worship clothes, in white.

I climbed up to a promontory from where I could see the room.

There were many humans, some dwarves and a few Kobolds. Waspy was there but she was...shitting herself.... The young humans too... they came more out of curiosity. But I kept smiling...

I had the memory of boring masses and all the blabla that was repeated from year to year, t the well-honed hypocrisy but people needed reference points..

"Ladies and gentlemen....The children, and our Kobold and Dwarf friends" and I turned to Waspy who was playing with a rubber band...which ended up hitting him hard on the nose..

I made appear on a giant screen the image of the orbital ship, armed with 2 dragon heads.

It was huge. Maybe 4 kilometers in diameter...

"Once again, I welcome you here to your world...

Yes, this world.... This world was ours and it still is but...we need to make it known.....

If some people don't know it yet... A gamma ray wave hit our world and ...it should have looked like Mars. but you see elves, fairies, gnomes and all kinds of bugs that didn't exist before...

All this was planned...by Tyrant and his Ummite clique. They are "angels" or "elohims" who came straight out of the thigh of Jupiter....

Don't worry... They bleed.... so they can die...

But first let's honor our loved ones and deceased by the ancient religions...

A hubbub arose in the temple.

Accessories related to the different cults were visible, such as a tabernacle, baptismal fonts and also prayer mats.

With a wave of my hand, I summoned the human representatives of the disappeared cults.

"This temple is at your disposal but you should also know that the temple has other functions as well...

The panels rose and a military command center appeared with screens worthy of the movie wargames.

"The temple is the ultimate place of protection.... Its structure is armored, resists to cataclysms and has 2 towers. One of the towers is called the hydra's claw.

A video presentation then showed the frightening power of destruction of the thermal laser.

Then we passed on the main tower... It was a silo of launching of a nuclear warhead

Then the panels slid down and the temple became normal again.

General Mondeville then asked to have the floor.

"Yes, General..."

"What is this temple, a launching pad? And who controls it? Kabal??"

Then he sat down, waiting for an answer.
