Against The Empire: The Dominion And Michian - Plot & Excerpts
The sun was blindingly bright overhead, and the air felt intensely hot. Alec’s eyes were still squinted closed, but he was aware of many bright colors around him. The buildings on the far side of the street were painted in extravagant hues, and the people around him mostly wore robes and billowing clothes that were bright shades of green and yellow and blue and violet, while the band of musicians who were passing by were dressed in white and blue striped outfits that looked like pajamas to him. But what struck Alec immediately was the drama taking place on the finely ground stone surface of the road he was facing. A member of the band was sprawled unconscious, surrounded by a few of his band mates, while the rest of the group attempted to play on as if their performance was undiminished by the circumstances. Alec grabbed the bag of medical supplies John Mark had apparently sent with him, feeling its weight slung over his shoulder, The soft dark leather bag was bulging with materials, and Alec stepped forward to look at the condition of the laid out player, who had a large wooden instrument lying next to him. The surrounding band mates were not offering any assistance to their companion as they stood over him, and Alec peremptorily spread his arms and pressed them back to give the man room.
