Black Hole: The Book of Iratus, Episode 84

Chapter 831

Five days passed, and it was now day 214 of the third year Iratus had been in the Nexus Prime. The people around his tower worked diligently to construct new housing, new walls, and continue to attempt to make electricity flow throughout the settlement. Several of the folk were from more advanced times, and of them, enough knew about electricity to try to tie copper wiring into a primitive electrical grid.

As night fell, Iratus and several others gathered to test the newly installed hanging lights. With a flick of the switch, a dim glow spread across the settlement. Though the light was faint, the tower folk cheered in delight, marveling at the progress. Astrid, the nixwoman, squinted into the darkness, unimpressed.

Astrid: "This doesn’t help me see a thing." After a moment, she sighed and turned back toward the tower.

Twenty more days passed before the new houses were up and livable, with even Fraus building her own cabin. Everyone pitched in in helping construct all the new buildings, which really helped build rapport. Leitmotif birthed her child and showed a union between the naga snake people and another species, resulted in a bipedal snakefolk.

Another ten days passed, and the tower was becoming a flourishing community with everyone finding a niche to succeed in the settlement. The six new members did their jobs without much complaint, with people bringing back hauls from scavenging new locations, hunting, crafting, and other activities that spruced up the settlement.

Finally, three more days passed until Iratus stepped out of his tower in the morning to see snow falling from the sky. Victoria walked outside in modern-day clothes and a coat and provided her own astonishment.

Victoria: "Is this normal?"

Iratus: "What, the snow? It's snow."

Victoria: "I'm just confused that it is snowing when we live next to a tropical jungle."

Iratus: "This planet is full of nonsense. Why start questioning the weather now? Though, I guess this will make scavenging locations much more difficult."

Chapter 832

As the settlement slowly stirred to life with mixed reactions to the snow coming down, everyone became distracted, and a commotion was coming from the gate. Curious murmurs rippled through the settlement as a battered wagon, pulled by two weary oxen, approached. The wagon’s occupants—three adults and two children—sat huddled together, their cautious eyes scanning the unfamiliar settlement.

Iratus, drawn by the noise, emerged from his tower with Victoria by his side. The air was crisp, and his breath puffed visibly in the cold as he took in the sight before him. The lead figure, a tigerman with short black hair and brown eyes, dismounted the wagon and stood defensively. His clothes, a mix of old-fashioned travel gear and scavenged garments, hinted at a life lived on the road. Two arming swords hung at his sides, well-worn but meticulously cared for.

The settlement’s inhabitants had begun to gather, their curiosity evident. Iratus raised a hand to signal them to step back, his voice calm but firm. 

Iratus: "Give them some space."

The crowd reluctantly obeyed, retreating to a respectful distance.

Iratus and Victoria approached the wagon, unarmed but wrapped in warm, practical clothing. Even from a few paces away, Iratus caught the faint, metallic tang of old blood. His golden eyes narrowed slightly in concern.

Iratus: "Greetings, strangers."

Victoria: "Howdy."

The tigerman nodded warily.

Indulgentia: "Name’s Indulgentia. We’re just passing through. If you have supplies to spare, we’re willing to trade."

Iratus took note of the others in the wagon. A leopardwoman and a squirrelwoman sat huddled together, their eyes darting between Iratus and the settlement. Between them were three children: two rabbitfolk and a young tigerfolk. Their clothes were a patchwork of primitive furs and scavenged modern coats, the latter likely plundered from some long-abandoned site.

Victoria: "I’m betting someone’s hurt in there."

Iratus: "We can trade. We’ve got a surplus of meat and some treasure, if that’s what you’re after."

Victoria: "And if someone’s injured, we’ve got medical supplies. No need to be shy about asking."

Indulgentia: "That would all be helpful, but give us a moment."

Iratus inclined his head: "Take your time. We’ll wait inside."

He and Victoria turned back toward the tower, their boots crunching in the snow. The settlement folk resumed their activities, though many cast curious glances toward the wagon. As they walked, Victoria adjusted her coat and glanced at Iratus.

Victoria: "Think they’ll stick around?"

Iratus’s expression was thoughtful.

Iratus: "Depends on what they’re running from. Or what they’re looking for."

Chapter 833

Once the people from the wagon finally came to the tower, they were greeted by the rest of Iratus’s wives and a few others from the settlement. The newcomers wasted no time delving into the collection of items Iratus had accumulated over the years. Indulgentia, the two females, and the three children quickly began assembling a sizable pile of selected goods.

Iratus stood nearby, arms crossed, watching the proceedings with mild amusement.

Iratus: "That’s a lot of clothes you are grabbing."

The female leopardfolk, Pudor, looked up from the pile, her arms full of garments scavenged from the hoard.

Pudor: "We go through a lot. Not to mention, the children came from a time period where they wore little more than measly skins. They need real clothes."

Indulgentia: "These cloaks will be useful."

Resonantia smirked as she observed the exchange.

Resonantia: "Finally, a way to get rid of all those things."

Indulgentia: "Where did you even get so many matching cloaks?"

Aestus, who had been entertaining the children nearby, turned to answer.

Aestus: "Ever heard of monsters called gray masks?"

The wagon folk exchanged puzzled looks, each shaking their heads.

Iratus: "Terrible creatures that can use tools and tactics."

Indulgentia frowned: "And they’re monsters? Not people?"

Iratus nodded: "Yeah. They don’t even leave bodies when they die. It’s like they’re not even real."

One of the children, a rabbitfolk named Nuntius, spoke up with wide-eyed curiosity. 

Nuntius: "Miss Otter Lady, what kind of monster is a gray mask?"

Aestus crouched down to the child’s level.

Aestus: "These beasts are mindless drones pretending to be people. They’re commanded by a being that imitates someone from your past… which they use to GET YOU!" She leapt forward slightly, eliciting a playful squeak from one of the children.

While the children giggled and played, Iratus and the others continued their conversation.

Indulgentia: "What’s with the monsters on this planet and using people’s pasts to hurt them?"

Resonantia: "What do you mean?"

Iratus: "Huh. I guess a lot of monsters here do that."

---

Chapter 834

Iratus continued as the others gave the idea some thought.

Iratus: "Metalheads steal the bodies of the dead; Gray Masks have conduits that are figments of a person’s past; Buba creates puppets of people's past to mess with them; Numb Walkers are people, just... not the same anymore. The people from Planet Valor say the ebony creatures are just like their ancient myths describe, and we have seen people turn into the ashborn. The holograms of Pride—we’ve seen them take on various forms of people, though I’m not sure if they’re all figures from the past."

Victoria: "Then how would you explain Treeskins or Edax?"

Iratus: "The treeskins technically are born by growing out of people they kill and the Edax Examina...You got me there."

Resonantia: "The only problem is that we know nothing about them, other than the fact that they devour everything."

The wagon folk exchanged uneasy glances as Iratus and the others casually discussed so many different kinds of monsters. Fraus and Otiosus, the only other people in the settlement present in the tower, had been quiet until now.

Fraus: "The shadow people also don’t seem to be related to the past, though we know nothing about them. Then there’s the AI program Iratus and Salvos ran into."

Iratus: "I think the AI comes from another time period."

Otiosus: "Besides the fabled titan—which none of us have seen—there’s the Red Mist. It doesn’t seem tied to the past either; it only drives people into madness and violence."

Iratus: "All I’m saying is that most monsters prey on people using the past. Which is kind of weird."

Victoria: "Considering how many people keep running into friends and family, even though the Nexus Prime is multiple planets in size, it’s beyond coincidence."

Indulgentia: "Jeez, that’s a lot of monsters. How long have you people been here to face so many different kinds?"

Iratus: "I think it’s just bad luck and time spent here. Even some of the longest-standing residents haven’t seen everything this world has to offer."

Eventually, the conversation calmed, and the group shifted back to discussing trade.

Chapter 835

In addition to clothes, the wagon people took a few tools, bandages, painkillers, some spices, a few maps created by the tower folk, and several weapons.

In return, Iratus and his people received some musical instruments from various old nations, a few board games, some coins, and any tools that they themselves would have no use for.

Indulgentia: "I feel like we are getting the better deal here."

Iratus: "We have such a large stockpile of scavenged goods, food, and stuff that there just isn't much that we need. A few coins is plenty enough."

Victoria: "In fact, you should head east because there is a ranch there. I'm sure the families there would love to trade too."

Iratus: "Just don't go too far east. Past a glass forest is the territory of a brutal city-state."

Indulgentia: "I see. Wouldn't be the first time we would have seen a violent settlement."

Iratus raised an eyebrow.

Iratus: "So there are many settlements around?"

This time it was the squirrelfolk woman who spoke.

Saga: "Not around here, but certainly in our travels, there have been many nasty people."

The conversation continued with various questions being exchanged until the wagon people were content with their haul and left for the farm. Iratus and the others continue to talk about the strangers and the lands they had seen with the strange snowfall, just as odd to them as it was for the tower.

A few more days would pass with Resonantia birthing one more child and spending her time cuddled near the fireplace as the cold only increased. Everyone was beginning to spend their nights in the tower kitchen, with people keeping a watchful eye on the fire as the snow and freezing temperatures were too much for anyone not to spend their time in the now-crowded kitchen. Iratus had a hard time sleeping in the same room with all of these people, but he stuffed his negative thoughts and soldiered on.

Chapter 836

Day 251 started with Ignis and a few others worked tirelessly to shield the garden from the storm, draping it with makeshift covers and praying the fragile plants could endure the freezing winds. Though their immediate supplies were ample, the garden represented their hope for long-term sustainability. The past few days, she had been doing everything she could to cover and protect the plants. A bit of a snowstorm hit the tower and forced everyone to stop hunting, scavenging, and whatever work, and take refuge inside the tower, though everyone stayed away from the walls of the tower, for it felt like the cold was sucking away all the heat. Despite all of this, Iratus got people to work on crafting tools or playing games while people like Aestus would melt snow into water and talk about other surviving-in-winter tips.

Iratus looked away and towards the others. His gaze sat upon one gaming group after another that had the younger people playing a tabletop roleplaying game with dice rolling and everyone acting as their character. With everyone usually busy, he liked the idea that people are finally sitting down and playing games.

Salvos came by from watching over his snake wife and child.

Salvos: "You guys kept saying that snow around here is not normal?"

Iratus: "Right. Sometimes it can get cold, but that's because this funky, made world works a bit differently than normal planets. Have you seen what's going on in Last Mistake?"

Salvos: "Cold, but most of the snow is coming down in rain, so it's nothing like here."

Iratus: "Snow in the tropics? Can't say I've seen such a thing."

Salvos: "I just hope the guys down there have ways of keeping warm."

Iratus with a bit of playfulness in his voice: "Forget those guys; it's the farm folk that need our hopes and prayers."

Salvos: "Ha, right. So, what is the plan for surviving this whiteout?"

Iratus: "We have plenty of meat and canned goods, so we can last for a while. Worst-case scenario, we send people south and hope the jungle hasn't been completely snowed over to find some food."

Suddenly, sunshine started filtering in from the tiny windows of the tower, which made some people sigh in relief. Iratus and Salvos stepped outside to see how much more snow had piled up around the settlement. A chicken tried to step outside, but after taking a closer look at the snow, it turned around.

Salvos: "I feel that little guy."

Chapter 837

Iratus was trying to shovel to create paths to the homes around with Sutura coming by to work as well. As the two worked, a howl from several wolves could be heard.

Sutura completely relaxed: "Hope the hunters don't run into any of that."

Iratus: "They went south, so they shouldn't be running into any large carnivores."

Sutura: "You don't think the animals around here are going to go mad from all the snow?"

Iratus: "It's only been a few days. Let's speculate later if this stuff stays around."

Once the two started to clear out snow around the gate, the hyena girl gave a strange look and walked around the wooden wall. Then after a few seconds, she called Iratus, and when he walked over, he saw large humanoid tracks around the wall.

Sutura: "I don't think anyone we know can make these big footprints."

Iratus: "Great. Another threat already."

Sutura: "Considering how many monsters infest every bit of the Nexus Prime, I'm shocked how little you guys have run into."

By the time Iratus and Sutura were about to stop, Arcus, Astrid, and Studium came back from their own mission. Iratus looked over to greet them and saw they had a fourth person with them, a human.

Iratus: "When I asked for you guys to take a look around, I didn't think you would find anything."

Arcus: "Sorry to disappoint."

Astrid: "This human has been freezing out here and needs to get inside quick."

With a nod from Iratus, the group went into the tower for a debrief.

Chapter 838

William sat slumped in the cushy chair, his weathered face etched with exhaustion and fear. His clothes where a patchwork of scavenged furs and torn fabric. Despite his fatigue, his wary eyes scanned the room, taking in every suspicious glance cast his way.

Iratus looked at the others.

Iratus: "Any problems?"

Resolutio: "Hardly. Now, what about the human thing?"

Iratus: "Astrid was about to tell us actually."

Astrid crossed her arms as she recounted William’s tale, her tone tinged with both skepticism and concern.

Astrid: "The humans have many languages, but luckily I understood this one. Turns out, some raiders up north are causing havoc. I don’t know if he’s telling the full truth, but he’s convinced these raiders have some sort of weather-altering device. It’s almost too convenient given the snowstorm we’ve just endured."

Many people started to whisper and look around in disbelief.

Iratus: "The planets inside of the Nexus Prime are artificially made. Maybe the robots manipulated the weather too."

Astrid: "I was thinking how convenient it was with the random snowstorms and hearing this weather tower."

Salvos: "I guess that means we need to show up with another war party and start slapping people."

Bellum: "Silver hell."

Iratus: "The problem is that we have babies and pregnant women here. I am certainly not leaving them undefended."

Resolutio: "A small strike force will be enough. All one needs to win a battle is cunning and careful planning." The goat woman crossed her arms and gave a slight smile.

Iratus leaned forward, his voice low but steady: "There’s something else. While shoveling snow out of the front gate, we found tracks—large, deep footprints. Whatever made them walked upright, and the stride was... unnatural. We might be dealing with another monster too."

The room fell silent as Iratus’s words sank in. Victoria's tail flicked with nervousness behind her.

Salvos: "There it is, that's the plot twist I've come to expect."

The wolf man's levity eased the tension a bit.

---

Chapter 839

Iratus and Resolutio went over who to bring along, and soon everyone was getting ready for the war party or setting up patrols around the walls. Astrid talked to the human a few more times, and even Salvos came around, but he subtly gave the man a sniff before heading back to Iratus.

Salvos: "I have not really had the chance to get a really good smell of humans before, but I'm sure even you can smell how off that guy is."

Iratus: "I don't think anyone's nose compares to yours, but I do smell the soot and what this guy had to eat recently."

Salvos: "We need more info out of him because he smells like he has been living with many other people; not only that, but I think that smell is from a mine of something. That man has been working."

Iratus: "Unless he lived in a cave. However, I do get what you're talking about; let's have Astrid ask the man some more questions."

Resolutio grabbed her trust maul and various sidearms, while the ever-lazy Otiosus surprisingly took it upon himself to volunteer for the strike force. Salvos grabbed Resonantia's bow and quiver of arrows while Astrid and William were already waiting at the door. Iratus gave his goodbyes to his wives, who each always gave a worried look every time he went to fight another battle.

Resolutio: "Don't worry, ladies, I'll bring your mouse back alive."

Iratus smiled, but the tension in his posture didn’t fade. As Astrid translated everyone's words back and forth for William, the human would shift nervously, his fingers twitching against his worn jacket. He nodded enthusiastically, but his eyes darted toward the window.

Astrid: "He says that he’s been to the tower before. It’s heavily guarded, but there’s a weak point near the rear entrance."

Iratus frowned. 'And he’s willing to take us there? Just like that?'

Astrid: "Iratus, are you sure about this, trusting this stranger?"

Iratus: "Yes. If he wants to lead us to the tower, then I am thankful for his help."

Astrid translated, and William gave a thumbs up.

Iratus: "I hope that means the same thing from where I'm from."

Astrid: "We need to leave as soon as we can; it'll probably be night before we get to the tower, and that's going to be some terrible cold tonight."

At the door, Iratus turned back one last time.

Iratus: "Keep the fires going. If anything happens, don’t hesitate to lock down the tower."

The group stepped out into the sunny but coldly harsh outside. With everyone bundled up in their snow gear, they pressed on and left through the gates and into the wilderness.

---

Chapter 840

Despite the coldness, the heat from the sun seemed to bounce its warm radiance off the snow, making it feel like it wasn't that chilly. Iratus could hear the crunching of snow as the group marched, and he could see the white cloak on every tree and every stone. Several birds still flew around, convinced that winter could not come, and sometimes, rarely, Iratus or someone else would point out some critter wondering confusedly because snow simply shouldn't exist in the biome.

The group passed the torn-apart train tracks and walked over hills. They continued past the woodlands and into a proper forest of pine. The deeper they went into the pine forest, the thicker the air seemed to grow. The towering trees, their needles weighed down by snow, formed a canopy that muted the light, casting long shadows across the group. Iratus felt his fur bristle instinctively, as if the woods were watching. He glanced back at William, who stumbled occasionally but kept pace. The human’s unease was palpable, his eyes darting to every snapping branch and distant rustle.

Salvos: "Anyone else think this place got creepier?"

Resolutio: "You’re just imagining things. It’s just a forest."

But even she sniffed at the air and gave a sigh.

Iratus slowed his pace and motioned for the others to stop.

Iratus: "Take a breather, everyone. Astrid, ask William how much further this weak point is."

Astrid translated, William’s hands trembled, and he kept rubbing the seam of his jacket. His eyes flicked to the ridge, then back to Iratus, as though calculating something unspoken.

Astrid: "He says it’s just over that ridge. The rear entrance is hidden in the rock face."

Iratus: "If it is anything like the other summoner towers, it might be blocked by their ancient security drones. What about that stuff?

After another translation, Astrid responded.

Astrid: "He says that a few destroyed drones was all he ever saw of the place."

The group pressed on, and as they ascended the ridge, the air strangely became warmer, and soon the trees gave way to a large stretch of dirt, and instead of snowfall, a light drizzle of rain came down around the mountainous area, and a bit of fog blocked sight to the mountain base. Iratus frowned as the cold gave way to an unnatural warmth. It wasn’t right, snow melting so quickly, not even at the edge of a forest.

Otiosus: "Interesting."

Astrid: "It should be past that fog."

Iratus: "Then it is time to see what all the fuss is about."

As the group walked through the rock and mud plateau, Iratus could see a small tower hunkered into the side of a sheer cliff and an obvious walkway spiraling away to what he thought must have been the front gate. He also only now realized that the sun was getting pretty low now, making pretty good time.

Salvos: "Even from here, I can smell horses."

Otiosus: "Then we should move fast. That backdoor won’t wait forever."
