On his homeworld, Sandras Yi, Nova was hailed as a prophet at birth: the revered dicephallic Kit'slin. It was a title which came with little privilege, but all the social stigma of unwilled religious celebrity. From his position in the temple-capital, Nova grew into the midst of adolescence - unable to associate normally with any of his peers or satisfy his elders with the supernatural wisdom he was supposed to posses - before The Council decided that this prophet thing just wasn't working out. Given provisions and a warm farewell, they ushered him quietly into a rocket pointed at the sky; into his "great pilgrimage" and out of the elders' headaches. |
