??s Dream
Edenia Series
By Beth Hoyer
The male as insisted by the High Council to be dubbed by the name of Nikolai, sat by the fireplace with an eater roaring away, bringing warmth in the room, from reading his book involving the Soulers sacred bible. He sat in an armchair, patiently waiting, while glancing out the window that showed the sea ocean with gonoids, fishes, swimming nearby. He was sitting in an armchair in a dome, on the bottom of the ocean, a sanctuary of the darkness dubbed Soulers despite their sacred Bible trashing the High Council. He heard noises of people coming into the room from eating dinner, chattering away. He eyed his children or clones of him that sat in sofas, overhearing loud complaints to their spouses about finding their youngest children, a part of a group of offsprings, children seated in front of him, next to the fireplace always asking too many questions. Nikolai frowned sitting hearing the children's talk till they became silent. He eyed his Grandchildren who sat next to the fireplace chatter talk he overheard. His grandchildren were talking about wanting to visit Edenia, the green plant forest shaped moon. It was orbiting planet Egyptia as dubbed, by the High Council that claimed to create the planetary world that the moon dubbed Edenia. Edenia as dubbed was as said by the clones on questions, asked by the grandchildren were acting like a normal moon to the planet of Aire as it should be called, instead of that Egyptia name. It was mostly the answers on Edenia manipulating the tides of the ocean with its gravity pull, moving around the planet always traveling in the dark side of night time whenever that hit the planet. Nikolai saw the grandchildren gazing at the fire which he figured that they were daydreaming again.
Nikolai spoke loudly "Grandchildren, I have a story to tell you so do you care to listen to it?"
He eyed the Grandchildren who shifted attention from the fireplace towards him. They, Nikolai saw gave him head bobs in the First Ones’ planet's style while focused onto him attentively.
Nikolai began his tale:
In a galaxy of seven planets, the third from the sun orbiting it held the planetary world of Egyptia, as the High Council called that world despite its official name of Aire by the Meritanians. The astronomers as they were called back then, were baffled on what their world Aire looked like, from its planetary neighbors' views. They created technology to view the planet from above in space. Among the planets then they debated on when to send First Ones, as they called the natives into space. The scientists thought that sending First Ones, as Humans species are dubbed, like you and I, to space would be better than a satellite machine. So an astronaut, as they called the travelers, program was started. It was mostly focused onto the nation of Lancelot, instead of called the name of United States of America, or what’s left of the USA despite King Winter stealing land from Aire and dumping it elsewhere. He did that twice with land in Aire till the High Council managed to talk him out of doing it. I’m not sure where the land went to but it’s rumored to go to Terra, or Earth, the First Ones’ original home world. The Lancelot Nation is referred as Columbia by the aliens dubbing themselves Elves, for more than one and Elf, for one. Odd name despite the Elves later wiped out by destruction of the Tennans’ warships firing onto the planet in a warning shot, for using one of their ships, as a battery, to control items, planet side, something, they didn’t agree with. Their firing caused a satellite carrying a plague to fall into the planet and sickened the alien life forms of the Elves that were already there living, leaving the First Ones and the Highlanders, alone to live, with some other species visiting from time to time but remaining in space. The program wound up having too much interested people, more willing candidates to go to space, despite the High Council threatening people to go to Columbia, to enroll into the astronaut program. Columbia was the first to create technology involving sending people to space, as it was called, by the scientists. The technology involved putting people in cryogenic tubes asleep, while they traveled from being planet bound to space. Only waking up once they reached a destination in space that sometimes involved orbiting Egyptia for testing on how First Ones would function in space. It was discovered that space involved no gravity and flying all over the place while there were numerous attempts to reach orbits. Technology is a fickle thing. It sometimes worked and sometimes it didn't which is what happened with those attempts to reach space back then. Sometimes the technology would fail to carry sleeping astronauts to orbit the planet. Instead suffer some kind of breakdown. The engineers, as their called, while monitoring the ship via signals, to its computer and their computer communicates with it. They would sometimes have to turn around and force it to land for repairs then again resume sending it to orbit the planet. It took ten cycles of numerous attempts till a ship reached the orbit of the planet Aire. One of those attempts held a pair of First Ones, a male named Yevgeny Visser and a female named Valeria Borsova which they gained orbiting pattern to planet Aire and were the first ones’ to report on the efforts of space.
“Anyway Yevgeny Visser in question, was one of those sleepers happened to be someone who considers himself, my father raiser, despite I having various males as my father, while living in planet Aire." He spoke.
Nikolai got interrupted by the grandchildren questions “What does Yevgeny Visser think of being in space? What does your father raiser think of raising you? What do you think of Yevgeny Visser himself?”
He clapped his hands cutting their talk loudly.
Nikolai spoke firmly "I'm telling the story so listen now!"
He got silence from the grandchildren in response but unblinking eyes staring at him.
“I’m telling you, multiple tales of wounding up having many dreams, while asleep, in cryogenic sleep, sleeping, from the moment the tube I was in freed me from containment of being the clones’ creator. One dream I wound up told having involved what I’m telling you now.”
Pharaoh, as called ruler of Zimala, sees masked male everywhere.
No one sees that masked male thinks “Pharaoh is crazy!”
It gets too much of seeing that masked male that Pharaoh stabs himself with a knife into his chest and lays on floor alone in throne room. Masked male arrives into throne room and removes the mask while snickering of laughter sounding like a Meritanian to him.
He turns out to be his own twin brother who spoke “You’ve done what I wants is the throne to myself!”
The brother wound up forces the eyes of Pharaoh shut then orders as overheard “The Pharaoh is disappeared by his own hand! I order him to be buried into an underground temple!”
“Disappeared is slang talk for dead an accepted term for someone who’s gone to join Humania and have returned again to live.” said Nikolai.
Anubis realizes that Pharaoh is still alive but not really dead gets him out of the grave into the priests' temple. Priests aren't doing much regarding this situation instead plot with Anubis and Pharaoh to remove his brother from the throne. Brother, an idiot, has religious beliefs involving some other god, named Lance Richard, the High Council’s God of Hell actually. Priests don't approve or appreciate of and want him removed for believing into that god in question.
Pharaoh gets handed a mask by Anubis and told “Just wear it to haunt your brother with it. Be sure to hide as a beggar. No one in the city notices beggars, hence we able to have spies hiding all over Zimala as beggars' disguise."
Pharaoh obeys learning how to do that haunting making brother, still an idiot, seem crazy to the city's people and own servants. Servants don't know that Pharaoh is still alive doing that haunting when he removes the mask, their fooled into thinking he’s the brother when he’s not. It’s the same with the city's people who ignore beggars and don't know that a beggar is a masked Pharaoh haunting his brother, to drive him crazy. Priests get the upper
hand on the brother's craziness and get him out of the ruler ship’s position into a grave to be buried alive.
Anubis tells to Pharaoh’s regret "Just to go to the chasm of storms and leave Humania, since you've been declared disappeared, to the people of Zimala."
Pharaoh speak "I don't agree-"
A priest interrupts to speak "I insist on you doing that!"
They managed to talk Pharaoh into doing the leaving via Chasm, a rocky jagged hole in the ground, always having elements of stormy weather of thunder and lightening flashing including sands’ storms. Pharaoh found in the process, his son a hybrid human, of unknown hybrid status, taking his brother's place as ruler. Pharaoh goes into chasm of storms despite still can’t remember the trip through there, to arrive to a planetary world unsure of name, despite it known by multiple names. Pharaoh’s brother, or clone of me, called by this odd name of Jinks Montreal, buried alive in Humania gets freed from Anubis, taking pity on him and gets tossed into the chasm of storms while still covered in wrapping stuff.
“Jinks Montreal arrives to world dubbed Mars from what I learned of him.
‘He has becomes a battery dubbed Brandis the
