Well, I am feeling generous... ah, what the heck, here ya go, chapter 2 (still on the introduction).


Chapter 2, The story of the Orb
When the glukkons attacked a village, they destroyed much of it, and then the glukkons would come through, taking all they found that they liked. Then the sligs would be invited through to take all that the glukkons had missed. And it was a slig, who discovered the Orb.
Hunting under burnt tent-skin, he found something the glukkons had missed, a nest of stones, and in the middle, wrapped up in dirty cloth, was the Orb. The slig found it, never guessing its power, only seeing it’s shininess and heat. It became a sort of good luck charm for him, he treasured it like he treasured his soul, he took it with him all day everyday, stuffed in the bottom of his pants, and he slept with it in his hand, it was a complete obsession, it ruled his life. He lost 19 jobs because he lost it in the night, couldn’t find it in the morning, and stayed there looking for it. But still he treasured it until his dying day.
When the slig did eventually die in his sleep, the intern that “disposed of him” found the Orb clenched in his fist. The intern burnt away the sligs uneven fingers wit his gun and stole the Orb, thinking only of its value, how much the vykkers would pay for this heat-emitting ball! But before he had a chance to sell it he got in to a fight with a friend. It almost caused a riot and the vykkers had to kill the 2 of them to keep order! And once they where killed and the gathered crowd had dispersed, 5 vykkers came to move the bodies, and discovered in the pocket of one of them, a small metallicy green ball.
The five made a secret group where they studied and experimented on the Orb. They called their group “The Dead Interns Society” and met twice a week at 11 O’clock. Until they too had an argument over the dissection of the Orb. Too cut it up and study in deeper, or leave it in one piece and continue with external discoveries. There fight went on till one of the vykkers, Athonanbra, decided that he had had enough of arguing, and stole it from the group, and hid it in a store cupboard. Unfortunately, Athonanbra wasn’t overly intelligent, and hid the Orb in a stock cupboard that was frequently used by the head vykkers. The Orb was found, knowledge was passed around, and soon the whole lab knew of The Dead Interns Society’s secret.
For several years the Orb remained the mascot of the lab, until the glukkons made an inspection. They discovered the Orb and took it, against many protests, to a larger lab where it was studied more closely, compared with old mudokon prophecies, and after tens of years, identified for what it was: A weapon that they could not use, but must never EVER be returned to the mudokons. So they moved it to a random factory. A long way off from any mudokon settlements, hid it with top security, the kind of stuff that would make Abe wet his loincloth and run for his teddy bear if he ever found out that he had to get in!
And there it remained for 23 years, but as all closely guarded secrets, it couldn’t remain secret for long. Why was their factory so closely guarded? What was it that the glukkons were hiding in the centre? For years no one knew, but as I said, it wouldn’t remain secret for long, and the mudokons eventually discovered that the most powerful weapon on Oddworld, was a mere 50 metres away from there bunks. But no one dared to try and get it. No one was suicidal enough, until, a young mudokon was captured. He had a fire inside of him that could not be put out, no matter what happened to him, no matter what he saw. He only had to get the Orb out of the factory, anyone could do that…


Well, there's chapter 2 and the end of part one.The next time I post I'll be posting Part 2, The Refugee.
