Man in the Shack

He lives in a Shack in the "middle of nowhere" with "what appears to be a cat." He has named the cat "the Lord".

He has no interest in ruling the universe and is not even sure he believes it exists. He only believes in what she senses with his eyes and ears, though he is not too sure about that either.

Every now and then men in six black spaceships come ask him questions or sing to his cat, he is not sure which. His answers impact on the "fate of millions of people". He is fond of whisky and enjoys feeding the Lord fish which he thinks the men leave for him.
