Boris sighed and waved the sending to go away. It bowed it's hooded head and slowly dissolved. Boris sighed again. He wasn't in a very good mood.
The thing that was troubling him were his three boys. He raised them. He taught them the art of necromancy. They could protect themselves from free magic, and they could control it if they wish to. But do they? To be a true necromancer, you have to have a desire for power. A strong, true desire.
He tried, tried to take everything away from them, so they would have nothing to hold on too. He took them away from their family when they were only a few weeks old. They didn't own anything. Except for bells. He only allowed them to think about necromancy. The plan was perfect. By fifteen years of age, they shouldn't think about anything but power.
But the plan had gone wrong. Kai cared more for fighting. Bryan- he didn't care about anything, it seemed. Of course, that was not true. The two of them had SOMETHING. But what? What could it be, in the walls of the Abbey, the world created by Boris from Nothing in the Nothing?
Imaginary friend? Boris laughed. If fifteen-year-old boys could have imaginary friends, then he should just go beyond the Final gate and forget all about this treacherous world. No. there was something else.
But he would think about it later. Because Boris had one necromancer, who had turned out right. Yuri. He was a student to be proud of.
"Kilo, Keith!"
A sending appeared out of thin air again.
"I wan to see Yuri. NOW."
The sending disappeared, obviously choosing to go through the wall rather then opening the door.
Yuri stood before Boris, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"You wanted to see me, Master?"
"Yes, my boy."
Boris looked at him, enjoying Yuri's reaction at "my boy". He really was his boy, this young genius. Too bad he wasn't his son. But the one he loved was killed a long time ago. Killed by an Abhorsen...
Cheza...he even looks a little bit like you. But you've always wanted a girl. You never had a chance to...Don't worry, Cheza. Rest peacefully. You will be avenged.
"Master?"
Boris realized he half-closed his eyes, trying to bring an image of Cheza to him. Her soft red hair, her piercing blue eyes...
But he would think about her later.
"My boy, have you ever been outside the Abbey?"
Yuri was silent for a second.
"In the courtyard? Many times."
"No. I mean outside."
Yuri wondered, where Boris was going. But, if you think about it, he never even saw the outside from a window. Somehow, all the windows seemed to look into a small courtyard. Weird. He never thought about outside.
"No, Master."
"Then it's time I'll tell you something. There isn't an outside."
For a moment Boris watched the shocked boy, then he continued.
"I've created this place from Nothing, it rests upon Nothing, and outside this place is Nothing.
I've created the Abbey to train young necromancers. But there is a World. A place, where many people live. People to control."
The man saw Yuri's eyes glow at those words. That was good.
"Now listen. I'll tell you about the Old Kingdom, and about my plans. But first, will you promise to follow me?"
"Yes, Master!", screamed Yuri. Boris seemed even more magnificent to him than before.
Yeah! ANOTHER chappie! Liked it?
I did. And what do you think about Cheza, the woman Boris loved? Of course, she had died a long time ago. I'll tell more about her.
Oh yeah, the Nothing bit came from Keys to the Kingdom.
