The Story(1)

A dark sky, flashing with lightning.

Gigantic tentacles, reaching down to swallow an entire continent whole. 

A maw that was opened wide, surrounded by rows and rows of teeth, unseen within the clouds, but still affecting the very reality around it. 

And finally…an all-encompassing will to consume all of creation. 

Daneel had to shake himself to get back to normal, as it has felt as if he was back in that memory shown by the Emperor. 

That had been the first, and only exposure to the force that had been attracted to Angaria by the mishap of the Emperor. 

Seeing the expression of terror that had passed across Daneel's face, the one who had just spoken started to laugh.

"Oh…'seems you've had some exposure to us. That really makes things easier! S'there any chance that 'yer scared 'nuf to let me go?"

Hearing this, Daneel narrowed his eyes, and in the next instant, a squealing sound was heard in the room.
