The Key

Keides describes seeing the relic as if from within. Particles the size of suns swirled around him. In the void between, he experienced a surge of power. With his hands alone, he commanded the movements of the spheres. Returning from this vision, Keides placed his hands on the relic. Now he understood its use, and the astonishing scope of its power. When properly controlled, it has the ability to collapse two points in space, effectively creating a stable wormhole. The Vagrosians called this device a Key. Spurred by his discovery, Keides acted on his own initiative to open a wormhole in our home system. Not even he knows where it leads, but he remains resolute, believing it is likely his people's home.
