The Gathering Storm
Conor G for Xeddick
Xeddick is a kraul; a member of the insectile race that live and work underground within the Golgari swarm. Xeddick is a small and sickly specimen, with useless wings and a pale white. But what he lacks in physicality, he makes up by being a telepath, able to communicate mind-to-mind, heal traumas, and rip information out as necessary. He is quiet and shy and does not like causing trouble. He only wants to help Queen Vraska, who helped him out and raised him up from his lowly place.
[rather unhappy] Do not resist, enemy-Jarad. It only makes the pain worse.
As you wish, friend-Vraska. Shall I proceed?
Because if you wanted that part of your mind sealed, you might have had good reason, Xeddick said. If I unseal it, I do not have the skill to repeat the process. What is in there may change you, friend-Vraska. And I . . . do not wish you to change . . . But I do not wish you to be unhappy, either.
