The II Cohort [chapter 9] the crypt

Everything is dark. I can't see, but I can think. I must be alive. My face hurts. I've been holding my eyes shut, that's why I couldn't see. I open my eyes. Before me is a bleak landscape. The flat monochrome floor and sky continue forever in shades of black and grey. Suddenly a light appears on the horizon. The ground begins to fracture and lift itself towards the sky, trapping me in a ring of mountains on all sides. A massive obelisk lifts itself above the mountains. The light pours through constantly changing holes in tower. What is this? Where am I? The ground is now illuminated with small squares of light cast by the obelisk in the distance. I take a step towards the light. Suddenly the entire world stretches in front of me. I can see my self travelling backwards faster and faster, but I can't feel any movement. The obelisk disappears over the horizon as I stand on the same flat monotone surface I started on. I turn around. Behind me is a light. It's very colourful, but I can't make out what it is. I step towards it. The light dissipates and I see Movok sitting on a strange metal wire chair with a metal wire table. There are odd white cups on the wire table with a steaming liquid in them. Sitting across from Movok is the outline of a guardian, but it's body is made from shades of light as their torn through the space around the creature. "Bau'rac!" Exclaims Movok. "There is so much I have to tell you." "What is this?" I scream. "Why are you so calm!" "Let me introduce you to Charlemagne." Movok states, ignoring my question. "He's just dying to kill you." "Kill?" I ask confused. The creature turns to face me, but quickly turns its attention back to Movok. "When the humans were killed, an AI took over every system." Movok says. "Charlemagne retreated into this place to protect himself." "What is this place then?" I ask, intrigued by the story. "Welcome to the deep stone crypt." Says Movok enthusiastically. "The creation of intelligence and free will." "Intelligence and will?" I ask. "Don't we already have that?" "Not in the eyes of the vex." Movok replies coldly. "This place can create life. The vex can predict our entire lives, but they cannot predict anything about a creature from the crypt." "This is too surreal." I say. "It gets better." Says Movok. "I was right when I told Drog'ull this place is a prison. Now it's my prison, and this world is my prisoner. That's the only reason any of us are alive." "Why did Kaliks put us in here then?" I ask, desperate to understand anything. "She wants us to retrieve Charlemagne." Movok says as he motions towards the figure. "I won't let her have him." "Why would she need a human AI?" I ask. "Do you believe in gods?" Asks Movok. "The vex and hive have transcended our normal reality. They are gods, and she wants to kill them." "Are you a god?" I ask "In comparison to the vex and hive, no." Movok responds. "Are we really here, in some kind of cyber space?" I ask "Our minds are here. We can die." Says Movok. "Our bodies are not though. Drog'ull was right when he said there is a physical place. We're on Europa." "He said that the map changed. Was he right?" I ask. "The entire deep stone crypt has a physical copy on Europa, which we are currently in." Movok replies. "It is changing, and it is thinking." "How do we get out." I ask, wanting for any bit of hope. "We can't. Not until we draw Kaliks in with us." Responds Movok. "I can't do it because I need to contain Charlemagne, but you can. Her high servitors are providing a buff between her and the crypt, but there has to be a connection point. Go find it." With that the entire world begins to slide and fold around Movok as I slide across the barren landscape. I come to a stop in front of Cadut and Tog'aul. "Bau'rac!" Tog'aul yells in excitement. "Movok told me what to do." I say. "We have to find a Servitor." "I remember what the core of the Simiks model was like. We can probably find something similar for Kaliks." States Cadut. The space around us appears to bend and twist as we go flying off into the distance. I can see that Cadut is using all her focus to navigate the crypt. It must be weird to read a world that thinks. We come to a stop. A small dot of light hangs in the air at eye level. Cadut reaches out to touch it. Suddenly the entire world begins to fade over with shadows as our heads fill with screams.
