In this desert of frightened, blind uncertainty, some take refuge in the pursuit of power. Some become manipulators of illusion and deceit. -“The Warrior Song of King Gesar” by Douglas Penick (1996) SANGHELIOS DEFENSE FORCE PRISON ABSOLUTION ROCK Within the Sanghelios Defense Force prison at Absolution Rock, Sanghelios, there are fans of cyan and dashes of light. With every sweep of opal light, another dash falls silent. Yet, there is more to be found at Absolution Rock.
