"Kaswpas used my ideas to create a species?" He fell on the floor!
Dromie prostrated himself.
"Don't do this. No." Kerponie lifted him with all four arms and put him on his feet. "Where is Kaswpas now?"
"He made us to fight Rentappenen but he is more powerful than the Guaspesi so we followed him. I know now that this was wrong."
"Surely you were like children. But you use my lens, so my genetics must be in you. Did anyone teach you to use it, or the consequences of using it?" His blue eyes glowed, and everyone in the room startled! His white hair also stood on end.
"Rentappenen taught me to destroy." Dromie looked down.
"I warned his people not to touch rainbow Tessite, but they did, and all of them are contaminated—"
"Not now. A lady took it and returned it to a higher level. I can't see them."
The man quivered. "I see them. You did things they do not like. But you did not know of the consequences and I do. You did what I would have done, to bring back the civilizations you destroyed. Their war destroyed much of Rentappenen's contamination.
"I see why my friends are letting you work. But how did you obtain a Lens?" He looked at Ir. "Your Lenses were Taken."
"My father—"
Father bowed. "I am Tanirpahadachan, Elder Of Biehshah. I was chosen of the Padrisa."
Kerponie bowed and stumbled. "I think your species is too weak to control a Lens! To try to teach you would destroy you! Let me give the White Lens to Dromie. I will keep the Rainbow Lens. Rentappenen knows of us now, so let us fight! The Padrisa warns us they cannot help us. If we defeat Rentappenen, they will give me a seat on their Council. Wslarc can contact me. You will tell him, Prince J~oie?"
"I will. May Father Of All bless your efforts." J~oie bowed lower. He trembled.
Dromie took Kerponie's hand and he lifted him onto Bponas' back. "If I could leave you here, I would. We cannot win without your help."
The unicorn stared at the ceiling. "Get on with it! I'm not happy about going into war again, but it's my destiny."
Kerponie chuckled. "Just help the slaves. I won't make you kill. You're better at healing them. I sent crops to Dromie's rock. They'll grow by the time we get back."
"Our world didn't used to be a rock! War kills everything."
"Ah, but I'll bring our people back who want to live peaceably—"
Dromie shook his head. "The weapons they used destroyed it. I was only able to bring you and Bponas back."
He lost his smile. "Then, we must save other civilizations. I worked too hard for this." The trio vanished.
Pamela, that teen, shook her head. "At least I found out unicorns are real!" She pulled at her long, brown hair.
J~oie startled. "That was ne a unicorn! Dromie brought a created species, as he is. Kerponie and his ba were the last of their species who ne sought war. All of their people followed Rentappenen, willingly. These two brave scientists thought to fight against him. Kerponie created Bponas to help him. She is as Dromie, an intelligent species as are we. But they are more advanced than we by many levels."
Ir laughed. "But, she looked like Earthans think a unicorn should look! And Dromie's species look like an Earthan thinks a goblin should look! I will petition Wslarc endlessly until he makes Dromie's world filled with all sorts of fantasy creatures! I might try my hand at creating magic."
