Heiden Ortvick

Born on a planet called IrDa known only by the fact that it was subject to self-destruction by its own inhabitants. The main currency on it was various kinds of information, as well as resources. From childhood, Heiden had to extract information, trying to remain unnoticed, as a result of which he received his name - Ha Den O Tvick, which was translated from their language as "Even time is gray." By the age of fifteen, his hair decided to also slightly justify the resulting name - due to constant stress in search of information, the guy turned completely gray. By the age of twenty, Tvick had become one of the most successful information traders, better known as an amateur collector of weapons schemes. Another ten years passed for him like clockwork, and now, by the age of thirty-five, he began to notice that the resources of the planet were beginning to run out irreversibly. He decides to spend the next five years creating a refuge for himself, where he creates a small greenhouse in hydroponics that can provide him with at least food. Tvick appears less and less on the surface of the planet, and practically ceases to trade in information, in particular, the most "valuable" at that moment of its kind - weapons schemes. The others start to suspect something and start to stalk him. At the same time, in dreams, Tvick more and more often finds himself in a strange world, painfully similar to his own, except that the only resource there is matter derived from attention. He does some research on the world until he stumbles upon a woman who generously offers to show him all this world and its features. Tvick incredulously asked what she wanted for it in return, but she only smiled strangely. He spends the next few visits to this world in the company of this woman who introduced herself as Onica. He suspects that everything here is probably not clean, and can not make himself trust her. At the same time, in his present world, his life span was nearing the fifty, and even knowing many ways to preserve his own appearance in a relatively young state, Tvick noticed that he was aging. He destroys all the material copies of the schemes that he has available, leaving them only in his memory, which, due to constant training, he had increased, reaching the top level. At the age of forty-nine, he was killed by conspirators on the threshold of his own asylum, before he reached fifty years (he could do it in of a couple of weeks). At the last moment, his soul was pulled out by Onica in the Shado for the subsequent resurrection of Tvick as a shadromancer. Literally right after the “resurrection”, a “tub” of information pours out on Tvick: Onica, not wanting to waste any more time, briefly explains to him that she is the consul (leader) of this part of this world, and notifies him that he is automatically credited to the post of secretary to the consul of Cog. To the question "what should I do now?" Tvick gets a concise answer "all the same as before."

Becoming a secretary, Tvick changes his name to a more harmonious, in his opinion, Heiden Ortvick, and also finds people from his own planet and begins to watch them until only the last one remains, whom Heiden pulls out the same as previously he himself was recovered by Onica, and leaves him as an owner of a small motel, which he occasionally visits, in order not to forget his native dialect.
