The Call

One inir—the most notorious disruptor of order in the entire rational universe—has only recently served forty thousand years for his crimes. Yet, against his will, he is summoned into an equally primitive world by some carrier of primitive mind. That world is so primitive that its inhabitants, imagine it, haven’t even learned to merge minds! Of course, he would immediately return home—if not for a sudden attack by an unknown entity: the inir was badly wounded and only blind luck prevented him from completely disappearing. In such a miserable condition, not only is returning home difficult, but even the simplest tasks become hard. So he needs to look around and gather strength. And the world around him is so interesting! How many rational creatures there are! While in the universe, for one planet there are barely a couple of hundred carriers of mind. He needs to sort all of this out thoroughly.
