Proximity: Land of the Precursors

by Andrew Michael Schwarz

The morphocyst population has grown by orders of magnitude, the denizens of which are building their homes in the forgotten sectors of Rigil Kent’s many slums. Jace and Nyx have stable employment as Silurian operatives paid to investigate morphocyst developments with particular attention to the phenomenon of the criminal serial morph. Conditions change when a certain data drive is found circulating with details on First Race secrets. This information is sought after by the Silurian secret police as well as the famous morphocyst geneticist, Dr. Elizabeth Borensheild. Meanwhile, a certain underground morphocyst religious cult is practicing what they call the Pylon Path, a bizarre alien practice that threatens to rewrite reality. Factions collide when First Race secrets meet the Pylon Path, thereby opening doorways that should have remained closed, and unleashing the mother of all existential threats.

About the author

I grew up in a cold place called Minnesota. It means Land of Many Waters in the native Indian tongue, but what I took it to mean was Land of Many Winters.

There, during the long snowy months and sub zero temperatures, I learned about a place called Narnia and spent my days figuring out how to move there. When I grew up, I figured it out. Only when I got there, I found it was much darker than I had anticipated or than CS Lewis had reported. Now, I tell the stories of what I found in Dark Narnia.
