The Chronicles of Amon book 2 The Sea of Marmara

  Chapter 8.

  The conversation eventually died out as the two men found there was nothing left to be said on the subject. Evander was the first to rise.

  “Gentlemen. May I suggest we take a walk over to the REGENERATION section? We have specialists there who can explain more fully what can be done to improve your physical appearance, Broc, as well as help minimize the effects your harsh life has had on your body.”

  “Will I be made young, like my brother Amon here?” Broc was guardedly optimistic about what Evander had told him. He looked forward to being relieved of the pain in his back and legs. His fingers were gnarled and twisted with arthritis. They ached constantly.

  “There’s a lot that we can do to alleviate pain, but we can’t stop the ageing process. We can, however, slow it down considerably.”

  Evander was interrupted by the quiet beeping of his shoulder mic, which had automatically reactivated when he left the ORIENTATION room. The mic was set to “private,” so only he could hear the message from Ambia. By the time the message was finished, they had reached their destination. Evander opened the door and escorted the two men to the reception desk where he introduced them to the on-duty technician.

  “These are our new friends Amon and Broc. They have some questions they would like to ask you.”

  Turning to the men, he added: “Please feel free to ask her any questions which come to mind. She will be happy to answer. For now, will you please excuse me. There is another matter I must attend to.”

  The young lady rose from her chair and gestured for the two men to join her in the reception area just a few steps away.
