PANEL 1: Narration: Vinn Mothership One We see the large Vinn mothership space ship in space, with a galactic cloud behind it. GENDEN (from inside the ship): Gods be found…TELEPATHY?!? PANEL 2: A creature with a large chin sack and horns that point down with a Vinn-spot over his left eye stands next to GENDEN, an armadillo-like creature with tusks wearing a hooded cloak, also with a Vinn-spot over their left eye. VINN [telepathically]: It is…unsettling. GENDEN: M’aaaah! Your thoughts are IN my head! PANEL 3: The VINN looks scared. VINN: Exactly. That’s what the crew has been discussing all morning. We don’t know how to…process this. PANEL 4: GENDEN, eyes closed and looking up, speaks philosophically and the VINN looks at the in silhouette. GENDED: The missing gods grant us nothing we can’t handle. But… VINN: But we can’t handle this. PANEL 5: GENDEN, hands out wide, continues philosophically. GENDEN: No, no, we will. WE MUST. It’s a truth-universal. The calling of the Vinn! As we seek, we cleanse the path. And as we cleanse, new souls and gifts rise to the seeking. PANEL 6: Close up on GENDED as they squint, feeling the weight of their words. GENDEN: And just as we took the burden from the souls who came before, so too will others carry on for us. Until the universe shines anew, and the missing gods find us all. PANEL 7: The VINN loos suspicious as GENDEN responds. VINN: But Genden, surely TELEPATHY is a step too far, no?! how will we function? GENDEN: Careful, child, les you drift to blasphemy. Summon those who carried this gift. I must speak with them. PANEL 8-9: The VINN turns to leave the room, glaring over his shoulder. GENDEN stands facing away from him. VINN: But you’re not considering what this means for— GENDEN: CHILD! THE NEW SOULS! PANEL 10: GENDED peaks out of the doorframe the VINN just exited. We see a telepathic word bubble under GENDEN’s, but can not make out what they said. GENDEN: AND I CAN HEAR THAT THOUGHT DOWN THE HALL! ——— Want to read the full story? Join us at Patreon.com/drive for the *FULL* Tales of the Drive archives, art giveaways, fun community, and more!
