Trials and Tribulations

<- joH's changs quaters>
 
PoQs informants had left the meH'Haj dinner as soon as Ta'pez had revealed his secret, they had brought the news in person as this information was important and had grave implications. PoQ wondered why his young housebrother had  done as hehad. It was stupid and foolish, Ta'pez was close to gaining the upper hand in the successorship.  Worse he  would have to tell the joH about it and it would enrage the elder immensly.
 
 
Chang quaters were dimmed and there was heavy smoke within the room from the many burning while the joH was meditating. The elder was doing it frequently these days as it seemed he knew his life was soon to be ended.  
 
PoQ found it disturbing that the old warrior was so inactive - up until recently the joH had been full of energy and strenght and yet now that was not the case. PoQ had found himself running more and more of the affairs and while he enjoyed running the house it was as it was not a good sign for others could see the weakness aswell.  
 
"My joH, I have some disturbing news." Poq said after a submissive bow to his lord and elder.  
 
"Speak" came the rasp reply of the kneeling klingon.  
 
 
PoQ sighted and told Chang about his addopted sons revelation.  The joH didnt react well to the knews as there  several objects around the joH became airborne due to his rage.  
 
"Doesnt that fool understand what he has done?" Chang screamed at PoQ as if he was somehow responsible.  
 
"You will have to come out and support him," PoQ said levely "or disown him, no other action will suffice or the House will be in serious disorder."  
 
 
The joH was silent for a moment and looked down, inwards, thinking about the many implications of his sons action.  
 
 
"I SHOULD KILL HIM"  Chang spat angrily, but his pace remained unsteady and erratic, "No, you my friend are once again correct, I will have to do something,"
 
The joH paced as he went through the scenarios, none was any better then the other, in the end the only result he saw was a weakened house of Chang.  
 
Chang, son of ne'thal loved his children, Ta'pez espcially even though this one was not of his own blood. Yet the old man thought long and hard about about what to do. He had long learned that only the house mattered, and the individuals were expendaple, for without the house they were nothing.  
 
PoQ stood silently and looked at the joH, he dared not suggest anything further,  the joH no matter how weakend was angry and his temper could often be deadly in such times.  
 
 
"I will have to support him, there is no other way" Chang said " He shall officially be the next head of House."  
 
 
"Yes my lord."

Ta'pez and PoQ were aproaching the joHs quaters neither warrior had spoken much. Each steeled himself for the barrage that surrerly awaited  them once they came into the presence of Chang himself.  
 
 
"He wanted to kill you when he heard " PoQ commented as the turned around the corner.  
 
Ta'pez was quiet and contemplating, PoQ just shook his head. Ta'pez was such a warrior, few were equal to him, and yet it seemed somethimes he was like a child.  
 
They stopped before the joHs door. "You know him, listen and wait there is some good news, he has decided to give you the reins officially. But dont say anything"  
 
 
Tapez somewhat downtroten visage cheered up slightly yet he could not shake the feeling of dread for what he surely knew was comming.

Ta’pez and PoQ entered the joH’s quarters. The place had been left undisturbed, the many candles and smells purveying an illusion of peace and tranquility through in this chamber.
 
PoQ could see the surprise on Ta’pez as the young warrior saw the room arranged in such matter.  Chang, laying in bed, his face turned toward the wall gave no acknowledgement of their presence. The light stemming from the candles flickered creating an impressive menagerie of shadows.  It was for some reason a most eerie feeling that gripped PoQ as he approached the joH. He stopped a few feet away from the bed, cleared his throat and said softly. “My Lord, your son is here.”  
 
There was no response. PoQ’s heart jumped several beats, a silent Chang was a most dangerous Chang for then his anger was unpredictable and the result most often Ta’pez looked at PoQ disturbed and stepped forward over the silent objections of PoQ who feared Changs’ temper.  
 
“Father,” Ta’pez said while approaching, “You wished to speak to me?”  
 
Chang remained in his unmoving position, ignoring the two warriors within his chambers.  Ta’pez reached out with his gift, wishing to know more about his fathers’ silence. There was nothing, no emotion, no thought to be found.  
 
Fear gripped Ta’pez, and he almost panicked, as rushed to his fathers’ side.  “Father!” Ta’pez exclaimed as he approached and grabbed his should turning him over.  
 
     
PoQ gasped as he saw his joH in a pink pool of blood. His gaze turned to Ta’pez who had the most confused and bevildered look. PoQ had not seen the warrior ever so out of his gaze not even on the first day he had regained his memory after the accident.  
 
A single blade, placed skillfully through his heart was still embedded in and stood witness
 
 The mighty lord of the Chang was dead, his white hair partially twisted and soiled pink was strewn across his face while a his mouth seemed to be screaming a silent scream of betrayal.  
 
PoQ would never recount, to anyone the sobs of despair and anger that he had heard from Ta’pez that night. What he did remember and recount, was a piercing “Deathcall”, warning the souls within Sto’vo’kor that another that warrior was crossing the river of blood.  
 
OFF:  If anybody has questions in regards to this  he should contact me via IM or PM.
