THOSE WHO WOULD RESIST MY RULE<br />
Story by Jason Greenfield. Art by Thomas Cardin<br />
Chapter <strong>One</strong>: Thoughts of a Tyrant, as dictated to Central Comp<br />
I am Darkikonn, Lord of all Quarr and Liege Lord of<br />
the Seven Quadrants. My rule extends to the edge<br />
of known space and a trillion trillion trillion sentients<br />
quake under my booted heel. I am Darkikonn!<br />
Is that a suitable opening I wonder? I find a melodramatic<br />
statement, firm and unyielding in its intent<br />
to be best. The usual form if you will, simplistic<br />
in its straightforward but bombastic language, accurate<br />
in content but perhaps somewhat … cliché?<br />
I think so anyway but my thoughts remain my own<br />
and of course nobody would dare to unintentionally<br />
agree with those thoughts unprompted ~<br />
Computer records a heavy sigh ~ it would mean<br />
their life of course and one must preserve form. I<br />
am as much a slave to form and function as all others<br />
are slaves to my despotic whim. If I DIDN’T order<br />
the occasional random execution among my<br />
lackeys on a flimsy pretext or even none at all, everyone<br />
would be so disappointed.<br />
