"Mortis" he whispered.

"... One of them?" he asked. Then, the nod of assent by Death, added: "I heard something in the air, immediately before Hadrimon you checked the gun ..."

The "Black Mercy", he said.

"Yes". But here not warn ".

Death leaned up to swipe your face that unclean, almost the same smelling. "I believe," he said slowly, "he died".

"Dead?"

"I told you: the great Abominations are animated objects, although from a form of life that it is difficult to recognize as such. Is that awareness, the malevolence, which warn you of their presence, at least as their naked power. But this ... " Once again, sideslip fingertips on the knob, never get to touch it. "Still retains the energy, but is just a trace. It is possible that the Mortis still functions, with an infinitesimal fraction of its original force, but there is no life in him ".

Also War leaned on that strange object, but without avvicinarglisi as death. "I didn't think there were Abominations with defensive functions".

"No, in fact. Sure, it's a shield, but its main purpose was not to protect its owner ... Not directly, at least. "

"But then ...?"

Death straightened, staring at the wall opposite to avoid the gaze of brother. "When he was awakened and was at the height of his powers," he said in gloomy tone, "Mortis reacted to attacks with a concentrated beam of energy profane. It was incredibly fast, able to move from one end to the other of a world in the blink of eye lashes ".

"And its target?" War pursued the brother, who seemed reluctant to continue.

"A friend, a family member or a loved one, go through the memories and emotions more intense of the aggressor".

Obviously it is very little what we reported, but certainly exciting for those who await with trepidation the new chapter of the saga.
