Kingsley says that it&#8217;s easy to put two and two together&#8211; the last known origin of the Soul Stealer was near Talvia, Q was in his twenties, and the soul stealer disappeared about twenty years a go, and that Q had obviously been ejected from his tribe because of his looks and his Rez. There was no coincidence that&#8217;s why Q wore a Negator&#8211; which Kingsley also brings up as an &#8220;interesting&#8221; point(Dexterity doesn&#8217;t have this technology, and Mercain is interested in things that come from Cybil).<\/p>\n<p>Mercain tells Kingsley to possess Q to prove to him that the Talvian is the Soul Stealer, and after a brief fight where Q tries to run away, Kingsley holds Q by the throat and demands to know where Q&#8217;s Negator is(It&#8217;s a chip that can be hid anywhere&#8211; a fact a Dexterian shouldn&#8217;t have known).<br \/>\nQ puts the gun he just bought to Kingsley&#8217;s side, pulling back the hammer when Kingsley demands Mercain take Q&#8217;s sunglasses off so he can possess Q(As Possession takes eye contact).<br \/>\nMercain eyes Q&#8217;s gun and worriedly asks if Kingsley&#8217;s sure about that. Kingsley says there&#8217;s nothing to worry about because it has to be a bluff- there&#8217;s no way Q could&#8217;ve loaded the gun between now and the time he bought it without Kingsley noticing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q is led into the Sinico building by Kingsley, where his hearing is assaulted.
