speaker was heard "Says we call this cold ball by the official name of moon. Moon has been dubbed by natives on Shadan seeing it by the name of Luna. They always refer the moon as a female deity as they refer Shadan as Mother some female deity."

  Tom frowned as the speaker paused followed by speaking again "Says watch the recording go in a fast move aimed at Luna which goes through what we call moon cycles seen from the ground at night time."

  Tom obeyed seeing Luna he assumed he'll call the moon. He watched as Luna's shape became thinner and thinner with a line of a crescent seen till the moon disappeared followed by the moon appearing again twin to the disappearance.

  Tom heard from the speaker "Says this is what we refer as moon cycles to tell time as First Ones call it during night time. This cycled of the Luna's shape before disappearing happens every thirty nights before taking thirty nights again to resume the shape."

  He frowned as the speaker became silent. He eyed the High Council to find them staring at him with the familiar masked Highlander looking at him with mouth in a thin line.

  He figuring that they wanted him to speak from memory of glancing out the window at Ran and Rhinna's house and seeing the moon from time to time.

  Tom spoke "Alright I get it what you're talking about involving Luna the moon. I've seen this moon in the sky of Uzan from time to time but never paid attention to Luna's cycles. I only glanced at Luna to see the moon in various shapes but never thought that this was common among moons."

  He clamped his mouth shut while eyeing the High Council as the speaker spoke "Says Ramses tell the servants to submit the visual file on the hurricane element known on Shadan now."

  He heard Ramses speaking "High Council wants the visual file of hurricane element known on Shadan submitted."

  Tom frowned as he eyed the screen to see the view changed to show the sun covered by clouds looking dark and sinister to him. The darkness arrived on the scene he saw something as water fell from it. Tom saw along with seeing plants in the vicinity of the recorder view whipping their fronds very hard. The sky he saw light up in a daylight form with a jagged line flashing along with hearing noises coming from it. He saw this repeated along with the water of the ocean he assumed looking violent angry and not normally like he saw when dumped into it. This Tom saw was followed by the scene changing to come from the air showing a cloud with a round hole in the middle twisting in a circle in a direction.

  He frowned as he heard from the speaker "Says what your watching is a storm dubbed hurricane by the First Ones. They have pinpointed the storm normally forms over the ocean when the elements are correct for it. The storm causes the ocean to go from normal standards into an angry state. The hurricane is powerful when traveling over the ocean and quite deadly towards manoids in vessels carrying them over the water's surface."

  He frowned as the scene changed to show the cloud traveling over something brown looking. Tom saw the scene shifted view to show a forest of trees whipping limbs heavily along with getting uprooted and sailing in the air which he saw repeatedly.

  This was followed by hearing the speaker speaking "Says the hurricane is deadly to manoids on land when it travels over it causing various numerous damage that can sometimes be not repairable."

  Tom frowned watching that as the scene changed to show the hurricane's cloud he assumed traveling over the brown area he assumed was land. Then reached blue area he assumed was the ocean and then went out of view of the recorder. Tom saw the rectangle stop followed by the lights resuming their brightness.

  He eyed the High Council to hear from the speaker again "Says there are such twin storms over lands that are not hurricanes that causes damage to manoids and their dwellings. This storm you saw is an example of this weather element that causes havoc to manoids."

  Tom heard from Ramses abruptly "Excuse me, High Council, Mindbender what do you know of King Winter and his cold?"

  He spoke in answer to Ramses' question hearing no comment from the speaker "I've heard nothing about this King Winter but was that him who Hades used to cause the High Council some sort of problem?"

  He clamped his mouth shut as the speaker was heard "Says yes that was King Winter. Ramses tell the servants to submit visual files on the cold lord and his cold on land now."

  He heard Ramses speaking "The High Council wants visual files on King Winter and his cold on land now."

  He saw the lights dim followed by showing a sun that the got clouds covering it followed by the recorder view shifting down towards a forest. A clearing to show multiple white stuff appearing to be in pieces falling from the sky he assumed in jumbled messes hitting the ground which became covered in whiteness that seemed to remain covered.

  Tom heard from the speaker again "Says what your seeing is an example of King Winter's cold storm. First Ones have called the stuff falling from the clouds landing onto the ground as snow. It's cold to the touch and covers the ground. The manoids living on Shadan have proved to show that the cold snow makes them cold and puts their bodies into some suspended sleep status. Also this snow status doesn't affect First Ones who have invented some kind of clothing wear. It's for traveling in it the areas covered of snow along with having offspring playing in it who do not seem affected by it."

  Tom frowned as the scene changed to show a manoid he saw Hades change into with a glaring stare on the male's face that made him grimace. The male he saw was heading towards the recorder view who dropped it. Tom saw the recorder's handler was a masked Highlander who stood with mouth in a grimace. Tom stiffened as King Winter got a hold of the Highlander by slamming a hand on the male's front. Tom saw the masked servant's neck appear to look bigger followed by the cold lord putting his mouth onto the Highlander's neck. The Cold Lord appeared to be making some sucking gesture followed by licking the neck area and removing his hand. The Highlander hit the ground appearing to be unconscious to him.

  Tom heard from the speaker "Says tell us what you think King Winter is doing to the servant recording this scene?"

  He spoke sounding confused "I’m not sure but he looks like he's sucking something off the servant's neck that put him asleep. Hence the servant hitting the ground and looking like that."

  He frowned as the scene stopped followed by the lights coming back on.

  The speaker speaking "Says what you saw was King Winter feeding off the servant by sucking his blood to survive. No manoid except the Shadonia are spared from being fed off by King Winter and drainer like species that feed off manoids' blood to survive. Shadonian blood in question have turned out to be quite deadly towards drainer manoids including King Winter. Hades is reportedly like King Winter himself, feeds off manoids but avoids the Shadonia like any of the drainer species have done in question."

  Tom spoke as the speaker became silent "Drainer like species? What do they look like anyway?"

  He heard the speaker speak in response "Says is it time for servants to visit the Drainers for checking up on them?"

  He heard from Ramses "Yes the servants are blaring to me on that check up status to send a servant for a talk so I'll send Mindbender to do it if you like."

  Tom heard "Says do it now Ramses."

  He blinked his eyes to find himself facing a set of steps as he heard multiple roaring noises sounding too loud for him along with a leg connecting with the back of his knees making him kneel. Tom heard gibberish cutting off the noises focused onto the stairs rising his eyes to feel a hand with smoothness grab his chin and forced to look away. He saw the hand's owner was a male wearing smooth black and white tight clothing molded to the body and having a mask covering his eyes and nose with white orbs seen. The male moved his mouth speaking in gibberish to him before releasing him to stand with arms folded showing some tall height. Tom looked away hearing gibberish sounding from the steps raised his eyes focused onto it. He frowned to find a manoid twin to the High Council's Shad speaker standing on a landing. Shad he saw looked behind in response further up the stairs then resumed staring at him wi
th all black eyes narrowed. Tom frowned as he felt compelled to look pass Shad he assumed was his name. Tom saw sitting in a throne chair was a male wearing white gonoid skin clothing on the form with facial appearance identical to the male that grabbed his chin and having a grey crown on the head with points of circled dots.

  He eyed the male who spoke in gibberish followed by hearing a guttural voice speaking sounding off his right "Says talk on what the High Council wants now with you being here as transported by Ramses."

  He felt confusion hit him. Tom remained silent as his hair was grabbed and found the manoid who grabbed his chin sticking his face in his face and moving his mouth repeating the words sounding of Freeloaders' language to him.

  Tom heard from Ramses abruptly "Just admit on where you came from and your confusion hitting."

  He heard nothing more from the Meritanian spoke in Freeloader language while hearing the manoid that grabbed his hair speaking gibberish "I came from off planet Shadan on another world. The High Council is currently teaching me what I should know related to this planetary world due to kept isolated on the world I came from."

  Tom clamped his mouth shut as gibberish was heard spoken from the male with crown from recognizing the voice.

  The manoid that grabbed his hair released his hold and spoke
