The random article:
He circulated with his tray of drinks, making sure everyone had a fresh glass. People said such
interesting things when they were drunk. He was quiet and smiling and unobtrusive, and listened in on all
sorts of fascinating conversations as people looked right through him. Servants were invisible, no more
noticed than service robots. Brett took advantage of this to help himself to the excellent finger food at the
buffet, and even pocketed a few small valuable items that caught his real eye. He decided reluctantly that
picking a few pockets would be a step too far. It only took a moments bad luck, a voice raised in
outrage, and he$prime;d have to run for his life before the Coronation even began, and lose out on all the best
footage. So he controlled himself, just, and hovered hopefully beside a group of MPs, hoping to pick up
something juicy that he could use later for blackmail purposes. Every little bit helps.
Behind the Thrones on their raised dais, a projected holoscreen was showing old news footage of
Douglas Campbell$prime;s exploits as a Paragon. Brett stopped to watch for a moment. There he was, the King
to be, always in the thick of battle, being the hero, and beating the hell out of people who were probably
only trying to make a living. Lewis Death-stalker was nearly always at the Campbell$prime;s side, fighting the
good fight and punishing evil. Douglas and Lewis, the King and the Deathstalker; champions of justice.
Brett had never cared much for Douglas. Far too prim and proper. Never had an illegal or impure
thought in his life, that one. Born to greatness, and didn$prime;t he know it. Brett had always had much more
time for the Deathstalker. All he inherited was the burden of a legendary name, but he went on to make a
real hero of himself, through his own efforts. Brett admired Lewis; perhaps because the Deathstalker was
everything the Random was not, and never would be.
