Void of the In-Betweens
 
 
            I suddenly found myself sitting in front of Tukumbini.  He continued to stare and I did the same.  A half increment of sixty passed before he spoke to me.  “They are depending on you, Hunter Tiger Shark.”  That was all he said before bright purple bolts flashed through me.  The warm, tingling sensation became hot and painful, as though I was thrown into a power generator.  He was killing me.  I could not thank him enough.  I could not thank him at all.  I was too busy dying or so I thought.  Suddenly the pleasure of the pain was gone.  I was disappointed when I realized that I remained in this pitiful, temporal existence.  Tukumbini’s empty body laid motionless.  He was the lucky man.  I watched the glow of his essence dissipate into the Infinite.  I finally realized that the ceremony was a funeral.
 
Return to the Infinite
            “What complicated her situation further was the fact that she was an In-Between, which means that she could be a VIRV at one moment and a dhamphyre moments later.  One of Cressida’s dark gifts is the ability to change appearance.  Since Cressida originally possessed one host and two predominate alters, her appearance would change accordingly.  The host personality was Cressida who was, for the most part, a black haired, black clothed girl with a very bitter attitude.  Then there was the blonde Eurynome.  She really did not care much about anything except table tennis and ballet.  Now, Persephone was the dangerous alter; the full-blooded VIRV of the three.  A brilliant, stunning, vicious survivor.  When they were all treated then integrated, Cressida adopted her appearance.”
