A Disappointing First Contact

-
The ships will first be noticed only a few days before they arrive. The astronomers that will discover them will think they are just an undiscovered group of comets - at least at first. When they start to change their trajectories the astronomers will begin to realize they aren’t comets. By then it will be too late to do much of anything. The next day, the ships will have arrived. Ships as large as cities. Ships nearly identical to each other as if made on the same assembly line. There will be over a hundred ships that come. The ships won’t float over our cities or our military bases or our nuclear facilities. They will form a grid over our planet, spread from pole to pole. The ships will float above oceans, mountains, deserts, and forests. Only a few of them will be over populated areas more by happenstance than planning.  The great superpowers of the world won’t know how to react. They all will hold off on any military options. Most countries will attempt to make contact, ea...

Scene 3 - Hunting Party

The farm was hours more away.  “They make deals,” Jack said suddenly, “Sophia kept saying you were breaking a deal.” “Yes,” Edward said, “I made a deal with both of the Queens. They cannot break it but I can. The only thing is...

Into the Other - Chapter 00 - The First Aggression

-
People have thought many things of dreams. They have thought them prophecies, messages from the gods, or boringly thought dreams were their unconscious mind working things out. These are all right, but only in part. Dreams are so much more than that. People have thought many things of death. They have thought it an end, a beginning, one step in a continuing journey. These are all right, but only in part. Death is so much more than that. What people don’t understand is that dreaming and dying are the same thing; the only difference is that you come back from dreaming. When you die, when you dream, you enter the Other. The Other is a place where anything is possible, yet few things happen there of true importance. This is a story of when the course of history flowed through the Other. We begin with the first known act of aggression among those of the Other. The being known as Proll was floating in his domain of endless prairies stretching out as far as he could imagine. The...
