Ry-Lan

by Alex Rogers

In the sweeping, rugged terrain of the Yorkshire Moors, the appearance of a mysterious sphere at a rural farm abruptly disrupts Alex Harper’s routine patrol. Beside it, an unconscious man in unusual attire, adorned with a badge of indecipherable symbols, deepens the mystery.

Tasked with uncovering the truth, Alex steps into a complex puzzle that stretches the limits of his understanding. The sphere and its companion are like nothing he or his friends have encountered before, presenting a challenge that tests their skills and scepticism. The mystery becomes more profound and perplexing with each clue they unearth.

"Ry-Lan" weaves a tale of intrigue and speculative fiction where the truths sought are as obscure as the misty moors themselves. As Alex investigates further, he confronts not only the puzzle before him but also the broader questions about reality and our place within it. What begins as a routine day on the moors, spirals into an exploration of the unknown, where the answers promise to redefine the natural order of things.
