A Short Narrative - Time Moves Differently for Everybody:
September 05, 2009 - ERROR - CONTACT LOST
New York City, New York State, Earth 212424
Heaven's Tower, January 2012
As far as the general public was concerned, the explosions at the top of the tower suddenly started well into the night. Such things tended to be normal every few months.
But something abnormal by comparison occurred.
Security had been told to keep people away from the building, well away, but no one could prepare them for the massive explosion that came out of nowhere.
The night sky lit up for miles around, car alarms ten blocks down went off.
And some say that they managed to find pieces of Heaven's Tower lodged in their yards several counties away.
Smoke billowed from the remains of the tower for near a week afterwards. News reports were conflicting about what exactly happened.
Except for one thing. Hecate Daemon, suspected of being the Black Kaiser, was dead. Daemon Corporation remained in shambles for months afterwards. Chaos reigned where the one being who brought order was suddenly thrust into the great beyond.
Only when Lugar Daemon stepped out of obscurity did everything come to balance. Nephew to Hecate Daemon, rumors ran rampant about his existence, actual parentage, whether he'd be a new Black Kaiser or not.
