Overlord of Outlaws

Countless worlds span the universe! Hundreds of planets are civilized. Thousands are uncharted or unexplored. And all of them offer death to unwelcome visitors. But where to go? What to do? Need the best weapons and armaments modern technology can offer? Visit Alforro, where elves run the largest manufacturing companies this side of the known universe! Want a custom ship with mods unavailable anywhere else in the universe? Hurry over to Verrgal, home of the legendary dwarven engineers! Searching for the best organic, farm-grown steel? Then the hills of Buurzeim are a must-see, but make sure to offer a hefty tip to your giant tour guide! With so many worlds to manage, only the most vast and powerful planetary councils can do the job. But with all the varied opinions and agendas spanning the universe, it’s only natural that no single regime has managed to control it all. And always keep an eye open for outlaws. Whether you’re in the outer corners of the known universe or in the center of an intergalactic capital. Outlaws are everywhere… especially with the Mob Lords controlling the universal underworld. Luckily, the last Outlaw Overlord, the most wanted man in the universe, was done in less than two decades ago! In such a vast, chaotic universe, who would dream of adventuring as an outlaw? Why not become a bounty hunter in search of prestige and wealth? And there’s always an opening among one of the many intergalactic patrols, offering promotions to the most dependable, powerful soldiers! Then again, with no other option available, that’s everything Ayse can possibly dream of. To be an outlaw on the run! To see every sight imaginable! To explore an entire universe of fantastic worlds! Even if he has to avoid possible capture and death at every turn. But can Ayse survive that long? Will Ayse be able to dodge his unavoidable past without consequences? Can Ayse successfully form his own outlaw posse with his recruited, self-founded family? Or will Ayse drag his newfound friends into the deadliest conflict the universe will ever face, risking the total extinction of sentient life? ****************** A Sci-fi/Fantasy Epic!!! ~ BULK RELEASES!

Interrogation and Realization

"And they snuck into your bunker?" Fred asked next.

Baloo's face twitched. "N-no. I… I let them in."

"What did they do? Bribe you with meat?" Diona questioned with a mocking chortle. Her narrowed, demeaning gaze honed in on Baloo's every micro-movement. "That would make nothing more than an ogre, wouldn't it?" 

Fred cut in again, saying, "Either way, you let them in. And then what. I looked like you got in a fight with them. Wasn't it you that broke the wall?" 

Nodding, Baloo looked away from Diona. "Yeah. I-I attacked them first. That's when you showed up…"

"Well, that's good. I'm glad we could step in before you were in danger," Fred stated with an amicable sigh.

Baloo nodded again but offer a verbal reply. 

And Diona, along with Fred in a less noticeable way, never looked away from Baloo. In particular, they both paid close attention to how unnaturally tight Baloo kept his closed mouth.
