-The stargate in the center of the village came to life with a rush of light, and plume of unstable energy that retreated back to form the rippling pool of the event horizon. From the ring of light came a pair of Prior, and one of the newly formed Hunter generals, his grey hair slicked back and close cropped, eyes glowing a soft blue as he glanced around, a wicked pock mark scar making his face even more grizzled than his age would have. Despite his apparent age, he moved with the vigor of a young man, striding powerfully down the steps one hand loosely hanging against the hilt of the two handed sword at his waist, the blueish gem winking in the light-

-the trio made their way through the village, the Priors quietly blessing people, and their doorsteps as they passed and were asked. A few young men jostled their way forward and followed the Hunter general on the walkway to the Janissary temple that had been constructed, but never used. Building plans had been given, construction had been completed, but when all that was done, it had been vacant and empty, and without purpose. Now it would be put to use, but a few things would change first. The Hunter general held a vellum scroll in his gauntlet covered hand, new plans to redesign the distinct airy design the Pretender Heka had built-

-the two Prior paused outside the building, looking up with faint considering expressions, then glancing at each other they turned to the Hunter general who turned to face the small crowd that had gathered. He held up the scroll and called out- "Who was the overseer and architect in place for the construction of this facade?"

-a man in his late years assisted by a younger almost carbon copy of him came through the crowd, bowing low- "I was tasked with construction, sire. Is it not to order?"

-the Hunter general stepped down from the building steps and handed the scroll over to him- "No, master architect. It was to order, and you had no choice but to obey at the time. The building was built by a pretender's instruction, now it will be remade, and all traces of it's false origin will be removed. You can requisition as many resources as you need to complete the task. The blueprint you hold was drawn by the Ori's own hand. You are asked, not ordered, to begin as soon as you can." -the old general put his hand on the other frailer man's shoulder and smiled, the symbol of Origin glowing dimly like a veiled candle under the white tabbard on his chest-

-the old architect bowed his head over the unrolled design, hmm'ing and rubbing his weather beaten chin and lips consideringly- "I can begin today, sire, and indeed, it is a beautiful design. I will be honored, and my son will give you a list by nightfall of materials needed. It will take a fortnight at the least... I do hope this is quick enough?"

-the old general chuckled and nodded- "There is all the time in the Universe, master builder. There is no rush."
