"Very good." Armande replied as he stood. Afterward, he crossed to his desk and retrieved the means to transfer data to Enzo. Contained within were the collections of studies he'd prepared following Aria's translation of the Voynich Document. It all related to Apollyon. Almost every piece of knowledge Armande possessed about the creature.
"The image you were studying was taken from that of a video of the survivor. You were correct in your assessment. Something did intervene, but we do not know what. Nor do we know why the Dreyken was so intent to make the individual suffer. The video is part of data I am assigning to you to study. Meditate on it, Enzo. Know it as well as you know your own soul. For I am going to send you on a mission. You will assist a woman, another Atharim, named Aria, whose task it is to slay Apollyon." He knew recognition for the dread beasts' title would flash behind Enzo's bright blue eyes. So much like the man in the video itself.
"Apollyon heralds the end of our age, and to us, he has proclaimed himself. Without a shadow of a doubt, he must be annihilated. Whatever fell future awaits when the Ascendancy dies, our fates will be better than the alternative. Yes, Enzo. You heard me accurately."
