Shang: Can I take down her head?
Shang questions the witch doctor as he watches the head swings slightly when the wind blows.
Nazeebo: Her head is the key of this shelter. This place will not be safe if we take it down.
Shang: Hmm… Agreed. I will come back for it later.
Shang climbs down the tree, with Nazeebo following behind.
Shang: Did you know the owner of the head?
Nazeebo: No, I don’t. Is it important?
Shang: Do you hear of the mad king of Tristram?
Nazeebo: I have heard of him from the wandering spirits which I came across. How is it related?
Shang: Well, that is the head of the mad king’s wife, Queen Asylla.
Nazeebo: ... Impossible. If that is the head of Queen Asylla, she should not have that kind of expression.
Shang: Then you would not believe what I will say next.
Nazeebo: Why is that so?
Shang: King Leoric is the one who personally decapitated her.
Nazeebo:....
Shang: You will believe me if you hear more from Deckard Cain himself.
Nazeebo: The storyteller of Tristram. I will hear from him after I have sought the fallen star.
Shang: Speaking of which, I have wondered. Where did you find her head?
Nazeebo: I chanced upon it in the crying woods when the spirits guide me to the field of gravestones.
Shang: Crying woods? Oh, you mean the Weeping Hollow.
Nazeebo: Is that what people who live around there call it? What a fitting name. I tend to hear crying during the night.
Shang: That gives me goosebumps. Can you describe the location?
Nazeebo: Why do you ask?
Shang: I suspect the remains of Queen Asylla might be near the location where you found her head.
Nazeebo: There are remains? I must have missed them. They will make good magical tools.

Shang: Err, I rather you seek her permission before doing that.
Nazeebo: I did try but the spirits are unable to find her in their realm.
Shang: Does that mean her spirit is still around in the mortal realm
Nazeebo: We can presume that as the link between her head and her spirit is not broken. Her state of death interests me.
Shang: Why is that so?
Nazeebo: Her innocence is enough for her to enter the Mbwiru Eikura, yet she is not there. There is something that prevents her from doing so.
Shang: Mbwiru Eikura? What is that?
Nazeebo: It is a place where spirits of the departed are supposed to go. Other people called it the Spirit Realm where they can summon denizens of the place to assist in their tasks.
Shang: Spirit Realm? I remember Necromancers have the power to do so but I have never seen Eucliwood use that.
Nazeebo: Who is Eucliwood?
Shang: A necromancer who is tasked by her teacher to seek the fallen star. She is also a nephalem.
Nazeebo: Good, I and the spirits have much to discuss with her. Hmm? Looks like the spirits have found your friends. Follow me.
After a few hours of walking and fight monsters with zombies, Shang and Nazeebo find two similar figures standing before the crack.

Beast
A threat to the galaxy has come from another, and the Union of intelligent life will go to any length to stop it. Military Quarantine has held for hundreds of thousands of cycles. Traders, merchants, colonists, and Pirates live risky lives along the fringes as the politics from the inner systems fail to see the larger threats beyond their borders. A lone human finds himself far from home with no memories to how he arrived. A failing Trade vessel plays on a desperate gamble, while a malicious parasite searches for a suitable host. ............................................. Author's note: Beast is a story that I wrote a long, long time ago. Some of you might have read it then, back when it was posted on reddit over at r/HFY. It was my first webfiction and made in the spirit of that subreddit's "genre" of humanity being awesome. But, it is also a story that has bothered me a little bit. Just like most new writers tend to do, I made mistakes and errors that feel painful to reread. A Space Opera will be a Space Opera, but I had prose that makes present-me cringe. Still, at the same time, the story is still very much a tale I've never given up on. It was my first adventure into fiction: Beast was a crazy adventure with bodysnatching aliens, galactic war, threats from across the universe... Posting this story here is a way to try and redeem myself a bit. I won't call it a complete rewrite, because it's not, but I have wanted to go through and correct some of the major issues Beast has for a long time and put it somewhere more accessible to read (instead of as posts/comments on reddit) and I figure that now is as good a time as any. Additional corrections you might notice are welcome.

But Sarah isn't afraid to speak her mind, oh no no no; people are people, words are words, and she misses Luna. Everything here sucks. Why does she have to do so much work, and why do all the bad men look like robot zombies? What is that smell? Why is there a tiger locked in a cage, and why are the beds so flippin' hard?
