Adam Rising

Adam is just a human, and even worse, a man. In the far future, the known universe has been conquered and colonised, and no one can escape the grip of the master race of Vanid, nor their matriarchal cult of the Goddess. By all accounts, Adam should have died in some God-forsaken slave camp before he could reach maturity. But the fateful acts of another before him changed his destiny forever, making him a free man. As resistance blooms closer to the heart of the Empire than anyone could have guessed, the attributes that make him a disgrace might just be the key to changing the universe. If he can avoid becoming a meal first. The universe is far bigger than the minds of men could have ever imagined…

Interrogation part 1

Adam squinted at the glaring light shining in his eyes. He was sitting on an uncomfortable bench with his arms and legs tied to it with chains. He could barely make out the figure that was in the room with him. He was glad too, he didn't want to look at the slave's visage and he was sure the hood had been taken off of it.

"You two are the primary suspects of the bombing of an officer's quarters, with equipment that would have likely resulted in the death of the officer and the destruction of a visage of the Goddess. What do you have to say in your defence?" A tired voice asked. Adam knew it was probably procedure to begin an interrogation with the accusation and pleas of innocence, so he went along with it.

"I have nothing to do with the bombing. The slave isn't mine. The fact that the bomb was placed in my storage facility is mere coincidence."
