"I can no longer support your war." Morley already had tired of the conflict long before the Spider creature had appeared in his command center. He had a distaste for the beast from its first arrival proclaiming it to be his lord. And now it was commanding he assault the galaxy in support of its spiders. It was to laugh for Morley.
"What? The disciple dares speak against the master." Morley hated every day like no other. He was in so much pain from his failing body even though nerves had long been replaced. His soul hurt.

"You are not my master, in fact I don't know what you are, but you do not command me or mine, and I am done listening to you, leave or you will be forced out."
"This is insolence!" The creature tried to raise a hand up, but it reacted in pain, a bitter sobbing pain that shot through it. Morley hadn't caused it, he knew this much, but Morley saw him in pain and smiled behind all the metal and devices. The spider god knew he was hurt.
"No this is me being right." Morley waved his hand and the Spider God was back in its realm, but things were different there. Where it once felt powerful, now it felt like a tomb, death his companion was now his jailer. He had to know what had changed, what had been dealt against him. But all he could feel was rage, rage at Morley for betraying him now after all he's done for the creature, and in that rage he was blinded to the truth. He was not alone...
