Chapter 13 - Chapter 13: The Truth

In the last days of Xasxquar as a moetrolian, he was warned by an active and enthusiastic man that trouble would come from a meeting with a certain person. 

Because of that, he had a weird feeling that it was going to be this way, that he was going to meet him/her, or maybe he didn't know, he might already have met them and not yet realized it, not to worry about that now, it would come and then it would go, passing clouds, he thought.

He went to college as normal, took attendance like normal (without name-calling for the first time), and finally, he went to the staff room to meet Swana and get the notes for the lecture, "hey dunce," said Swana, he replied, "lectures" while showing the notes, Swana quickly grabbed his notes, and said "Joint lecture, today", while hitting his head with the notes, Xasxquar felt his stomach tingle, but kept silent, they went to the class 9ł (9a) the entire class erupted with a enormous "Oooooooohhhhhh", Xasxquar clenched his stomach, but Swana was infuriated, she gave Sheila detention for ten days for starting it, and every one else three essays, and each essay should be atleast ten pages, Xasxquar didn't know whether to laugh or frown, or be scared at the strictness or be happy for punishing the students, but then she suddenly said "nobody will mock professor Xas… -Arrack", the student were confused about the name, Xasxquar was confused about the remark, Xasxquar suddenly remembered the active man, which resembled him a little, but his beard was blocking everything anyways, was Swana the person he was talking about? It couldn't've been Swana, "she too-too-to-innocent?", Xasxquar thought.

After the lecture, he and Swana went to the staff to find that it smelled very badly. She just tapped Xasxquar's shoulder and left. Xasxquar didn't know whether to hold his nose or his stomach. He just emptied his cologne bottle in the staff room; it was almost empty anyway. Xasxquar thought that it might be Sheila who made the room smell because of the detentions she got from Swana, thinking about Swana, now he had to get her and get a review noted down, because it was their first joint lecture, as a new faculty member she didn't have much experience in joint lectures, but Xasxquar did, for the first time with any faculty member they had to write a review.

After a few lectures, it was the end of college, Xasxquar had already taken Swana's review on the joint lecture and submitted it to the Jèrmolog; he muttered something that sounded like "Naïve.". He didn't understand why he cared. 

But now Xasxquar had to go to the library and work on translating the book. He had not translated the book for a good few days, so he decided to do it now. he went to the library, took the book, and went to his office, where he found Sheila and Swana. He realized it was for the detention. He silently took the translator book and left, he took the ship to home, where his mother had been waiting for him for half an hour already, he explained that he was late due to the ship's engine failing in the middle, his mother scolded him "you idiot, why didn't you go in the hover-ship, after all it was given to you, even in the morning you forgot about it, it is yours and now use it, no need of ships, they've already saved a space for you" Xasxquar completely confused asked "what hover-ship?" his mother was now infuriated, she said "did you drink, didnt you see the hover-ship getting delivered the day you got in the seliponian class?, were you that ignorant?, and you come to me and ask me "what hover-ship?" I should have knocked some sense into you with the broom the moment you asked that. Now leave it, use the hover-ship from now," Xasquar simply replied. "Ok".

Xasxquar now very irritated, went to his room and started translating where he left off, but it struck him, from the eleventh page, it was a jumbled mess, so he went to Master Junghybt's house, then suddenly remembering that he had a drone in his house, so he checked it, it showed Master Junghybt cleaning up his setup after it whistled one more time.

He told his mother and went to Master Junghybt's house. He knocked on the door, and Master Junghybt said out front, "Come back later, child". But Xasxquar didn't care; he knocked again and asked for the book. Master Junghybt, clearly irritated, gave him the book and slammed the door on him. Between these two events, Xasxquar observed that, he went from not limping to suddenly limping, so he went to his office to check on Swana, but she wasn't there, so he went back home with the translation book in his hands, but he was unconvinced, how come this time his mother didn't inform Master Junghybt, or did she but Master Junghybyt didnt bother to tell? Or, maybe it was Master Junghybt that tricked him, maybe he gave him the wrong book by accident or on purpose, or maybe he was just overthinking. 

Now Xasxquar had the translation book, which was updated, and the main book/dialect, so he started. The eleventh page contained a trace amount of information on the queen; she was written as the "Mother Zephtak." Xasxquar, once again taken aback, informed his mother, and she just laughed it off, then as he was translating, he found out that the "scribe Xasxquar", Xasxquar's father, the king, had tried to kill his queen in the presence of "scribe Xasxquar", who loved the queen very much, so the king and his other son whose name was "Bharath" framed him and put him prison, then at the prison "scribe Xasxquar" went crazy, according to his son who took the responsibility of completing this book secretly, apparently scribe Xasxquar kept screaming "THESE VOICES IN MY HEAD DON'T DISAPPEAR!", that was it Xasxquar's son who had to take his mind of the repeating mystery of the "voices in my heads", while Xasxquar thought translating these book would cause him to go crazy. 

He shut the book, feeling guilty because he translated only one page, but he slept, without telling anything to his mother. He felt like he had uncovered the truth, but with no purpose. He silently drifted off to sleep, where nothing could bother him.
