Andor's Anger

"Neeva," Andor begins slowly, fire in his eyes, "Is hat..... thing..... Zoanon?"

Betty and Ragan have the inane thought that the TV show, Doctor Who, was full of blips and mistakes. Apparently, here in "real life," people are prone to small verbal slips and such just as well. Heck, come to think of it, similar things sometimes happened to speakers... especially when the speaker is almost besides themselves in anger.

Quiet as Andor is speaking right now, one just needs to look at his face to see just how angry he is!

Neeva, usually more in possession of himself, has been a bit rattled by the things that he'd seen and heard today. And all that he'd heard just NOW was the crowning glory! What did it all mean?! He'd always believed...despite Xoanon being rather....confusing sometimes. But at the bottom of it all he and the other Shamans before him know that only by the grace of Xoanon that kept the Phantoms out beyond the Barrier (in spite of the fact that the Tesh and the Evil One held him). Anyway, if he'd been less unsettled, he'd have known better.

After all, in the past he'd known when to....bend the truth. Known when to remain silent. When to speak out and condemn. When to lie to save his life....

"Yes," he says simply.

This is rather too much for Andor. He'd done everything for the good of the Tribe. He believed in the Holy Purpose: rescuing the Xoanon and defeating the Tesh. He'd always believed that Xoanon spoke to Neeva. He'd always been a god fearing man.....but nothing today made any sense. Or rather, it made rather too much sense. It had all been a lie.

He'd known that Neeva had always been manipulating him, but this was too much!

He'd been about to risk the wellfair of the Tribe on....a mad thing! Something that..... No, it was too much!!

1. "Die!" Andor shouts, pulling something and making a stabbing motion with....whatever he'd pulled out of his pouch.
