Pam shook her head as she rubbed her eyes. “What in the world was that?” After a few moments, she regained her ability to look down at the book in front of her. “Ok, now that I can see again what this thing says?” Pam narrowed her eyes. “That is strange. All that is written here is the body shall become its true form upon hearing the words etched here. Bon... The rest is faded. I can’t make it out.” She sighed. “Ya, thanks a lot for that, Vector. Great first story.” She set the book down and wiped her forehead. “I think I am going to get a glass of water. It is just too hot today.”
