Chapter 65-Kallo 2 and Reeas
On my way to the conference hall I thought, surely the Guardians should have known about the events that happened on Altreena?
In the hall Grenwer was sat on the central chair with three more Guardians who I knew to be Higher Coordinators. But there was one seat which was vacant to the right of Grenwer. This seat I knew was Sionn’s. When everyone was settled Grenwer said, ‘Please welcome our new Higher Coordinator Kallo 2.
‘What?’ I shouted. Everyone in the hall was now shouting no, no.
‘Please, please’ shouted Grenwer. ‘This is a grade one emergency meeting everyone must comply! The noise abated after some time. Kallo was now at the seat where Sionn used to sit! Grenwer nodded to him to start. Kallo started to speak. ‘This meeting has been especially called because the whole fabric of the Guardian-Network is now under threat!’
Everyone in the hall was now staring in disbelief. One member of the audience on the front row shouted ‘Yes, and you are the cause!’
Grenwer was now on his feet. He motioned Kallo to sit down. Grenwer then started to speak. ‘Members, we are now in a new danger! We could have held information from you about Kallo, but we wanted to be honest as the truth always makes itself known sooner or later. We could have changed Kallo’s appearance; we could have cloned him into any form, we want you to know that Kallo is now no danger to us. The real danger is the threat from Kallo’s apprentices.’
‘And who is to blame for that’ shouted several people in the audience.
‘Grenwer said, Please be quiet, this is a crisis, and we have to be orderly. Kallo has extensive knowledge about their network; it has taken a long time for us to get Kallo ready-for-action, this meeting is also for the benefit of any students who can access our network. As you know, Dan Sherman has been isolated into some sort of vacuum. Our agents are trying to locate him but up to now we have been unsuccessful. You also know Dan has access to Debra who has become more than just the ships computer; she is simply the whole Guardian-Network, so you see? Now that Dan is missing, our network has depleted itself to the extent that we are in real danger! We will now revert back to the old system of Thought-Transfer!’
‘What?’ Shouted someone from the second row? How can we do that? That system has been obsolete for centuries!’
‘It is simply a safeguard,’ shouted Grenwer. All of you have been trained in Thought-Transfer, even the student Guardians are familiar with it so please use it from now on. We can’t risk jeopardizing the Network.’
For students: the difference between the Thought-Transfer and the Network is simply that the Network is the light book, and so the light book is under threat. In years gone by Thought-Transfer was the way to access the Guardian-Network.
Grenwer said, ‘Please let Kallo 2 speak.’
It took a few minutes for the hall to calm down. Kallo 2 was now standing and looking around the hall. I started to feel uneasy. Kallo then waved his hand, seconds later all the lights in the hall went out, people started to shout; also some people were now on their feet. Within seconds the lights came on again.
‘Please don’t be alarmed.’ Kallo 2 said. ‘I’m just trying to make you see that darkness is something that I have had a lot of experience with; only real darkness is something that most of you haven’t really experienced.
‘What are you trying to say?’ said one person in the audience, ‘That you are a very bad man?’
‘No!’ shouted Kallo. I am trying to say that I am a higher being with experience in the Dark- Regions; I have also been to Mannus. The Kallo you once knew is now gone. How can I justify the things I have done in my past, you say? I can’t. But I am willing to sacrifice myself; I will scour the lower regions to find Dan Sherman! I stood up and shouted.
