Killing wasn\u2019t all that bad when you learned what was really going on. Death was a rule of the world. Everyone knew that. It was how systems renewed themselves. It was beautiful, in a way. These other things, though \u2014 these other things didn\u2019t die on their own. Something in reality had slipped a spoke and they ran on and on. It was up to the group to punch their ticket. It was up to him. He had done many such things for the group since 1943. Since any semblance of normal life had ended.<\/i><\/p>\n

No one knew what the things were, really. He had heard some in the group go on and on about Elder Ones and cycles and elliptical orbits of dead stars that ruined the world every 900 million years. He\u2019d seen reports on time gates and ray guns and things that, if they slipped past the net the group had raised, could destabilize the whole world.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Once, he saw something huge and gelatinous and covered in a thousand eyes crawl up from a hand-carved pit in Peru, struggle over the ledge, and consume a tied-up goat with the avidity of a spider feeding on a fly.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

That was okay. There were worse things, really.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n
