Being the fulfillment of prophecy, the conjoined twins Ayeye were hidden from the public by their father, Suumisee, the Emperor Supreme of the planet and it's people. It was not to protect them, rather his own power and greed for he would lose his throne if their existence was ever revealed to the outside world. As Ayeye matured, they began to long for the outside world, making several daring attempts to just get a glimpse of what wonders the world beyond the castle walls hid from them. Fearing that one of their attempts could succeed, Suumisee consulted the Oracle of the Egg, who first warned Suumisee of his child’s uniqueness before they were even hatched. Since the Avionals are forbidden to take the life of another, a conspiracy was hatched so to speak, that they would be banished off world. Enter the young anthropologist and student Gwob, who has been working to catalog the life forms of Aviona for the Universal Council’s “Grand Phylum” project. Could He be their answer? |
