Chapter XV: Eugene’s Intro ~Eugene

 

 

        Out of the bleak night cries the prepubescent voice of a lanky man hidden in the shadows of Zolott. From his askewed lips comes an excited phrase..."I did it, I am free." The young dote breaks out into sudden, outrageous laughter, which echoes to the far corners of Zolott.
        His laughter ends as his mind wanders to earlier that day. He was huddled in the far corner of the
Manhattan library reading multiple volumes on ancient Druid mind control. His thick glasses reflected the ancient text as a group of young men eighteen or so began taunting him. Under his breath Eugene muttered "Soon you will worship me... will obey my every whim." The largest of the young man shouted, "What did you say? Jesus, your so queer!" Eugene returns to his reading as the band of rogues storm off. Once the young men were out of sight, Eugene shouted, "I swear by the name of Tisrav, the Druid god of pacifism, I will control this society which tortures me so!" Following his mellow-dramatic episode, Eugene began his long walk home, carrying his books by his side. All of a sudden, a gargantuan vortex opened, sucked Eugene in, and vanished. Eugene recalls these blissful moments with a smile on his distorted face and whispers, "Thank Tisrav, I am free, free from this wretched society!" The demented soul resumes his idiotic laughter.
