grenade and he found himself here, lying a couple of miles beyond Karnack.”
    “The same thing happened to me.” Might said with a gasp, looking at Neamo with awe. For some strange reason he felt a kinship with the man that he had only known with his amnesiac companions.
    “Where do you come from Might?”
    “Not really sure Obededom. I have no memories beyond a month ago. I woke up in the desert plains of Nephilim a few hundred clicks from Absalom with four other companions.
    “We journeyed to Gethsemane hoping to find answers to our amnesia; there we met the head prophet Mordecai who sent us on a journey to find the city of light. Three of my companions perished on the way. The fourth managed to enter something called the flight and escaped from Nephilim.”
    “Escaped from Nephilim?? What do you mean escaped from Nephilim? How does one escape from Nephilim?”
    Might could see he had their full attention now. He lowered his gun but did not ease his hard grip on it.
    “I think he found his way into the city of light.”
    “The city of light? Isn’t that just a fairy tale? Does it truly exist?”
    “I think it does. Swift was carried into it. I saw it with my own eyes.”
    A long silence followed his words. A silence Obededom eventually broke.
    “So where are you headed?”
    Might paused hesitant. He did not want to lie but he also didn’t want to reveal too much to these strangers. He did not completely trust them yet. Eleyon spoke at that instant.
    “Tell them__ you need something that they have. And they will only give you when you tell them where you are going.”
    His voice came so suddenly that Might almost jumped. He was just able to keep it together.
    “I am headed to B1 twelve alpha.”
    “What is B1 twelve alpha?” Neamo asked with a puzzled look on his face. Might’s eyes widened in surprise at that, so Neamo could speak? Wonderful!
    “It is called the biosphere. An abandoned military installation built__”
    “To house the remnant of the human forces__” Neamo finished slowly. “After the failure of Holdstatt at the war of the ether-tome.”
    “How in the world could you know that?” Might asked shocked.
    “I used to be a prophet, remember? Our records are more reliable than anywhere else on Nephilim.”
    “That doesn’t sound right. When I visited Gethsemane, Mordecai made it seem as if the prophets had no information about Nephilim’s dark history.”
    “Dunno why he should do that__ its common knowledge among the prophets what the Biosphere was and what it was built for.” Neamo replied with a puzzled air.
    “So you are saying he lied?”
    “Prophets don’t lie. They have taken an oath not to lie. It is a covenant we made with Eleyon in the dark years after the ether-tome’s eruption. He must have decided to withhold some things from you for reasons best known to him.”
    Might frown deepened and the caustic look he threw at Neamo told everyone he was not convinced. A troubled silence ensured.
    “What do you hope to find in the biosphere?” Neamo asked breaking the silence.
    “I am not sure yet. But whatever it is, I hope it will give me the means to escape from Nephilim.”
    More silence followed his hard statement. Neamo spoke again.
    “Then you are going to need food for your journey. We can only spare a couple of moldy bread and two tins of salted fish plus a canteen of water. Its engineered liquid so you do not have to drink too much of it at a go. And you can go longer before you need to drink again.” He looked to Obededom for permission as he said this and the man nodded.
    One of the men at the back leaped off his animal and walked over to Might handing him a medium sized package wrapped in thick cellophane. It looked and felt like a cooler.
    “Thank you so much__” Might said moved by their generosity.
    “Don’t worry about it. Just wish we could do so much more. Travel safe Might and may the most peaceful and favorable things of the universe follow
