Sunken Lies

(Verse – Man) Sifting through the wreckage of my emotions,Like a sunken ship, broken beneath the sea,Lost to all but itself, scattered and broken,All its contents laid bare inside of me. (Verse – woman)I’m a fool for trusting you.Now I’m left with the consequences,Of the choices you made,and my complicity in them. (Pre-Chorus – Man)If the sun stares, I don’t care –I don’t care.Let my sins lay…

Beneath the Moonlight

Oh, how brave the men who rode that night were, Darklings beneath the blackest of moonlight, Confronting not only shifting shadows, But also foes cloaked in gloom and shade. And though the dust beneath their feet stirred,  Choking them at every breath, And sweat blurred their stinging eyes, They fought on, pressed on valiantly –  Seeking succor in their own glory. Though their strength…

02 - Collision Course

The train was rushing – two hundred ten, two hundred twenty miles per hour. The explosion had thrown V-v onto the track, where its electromagnetic suspension system magnetized to the metal within her frame, holding her suspended just above rails without being able to break free. Her legs were locked in place, pressed tight against the pull of the magnets. Her magnetic insulation wasn’t as advance…

Legend of the Green Rose - Mother and the Garden of Children

The climb to the Garden of Children was grueling – an exhaustion unlike any known to most. Only the most unyielding wayfarers have known its depths. One that drains a man to his marrow, leaving him wreathing to the bone as his hands desperately tremble in their plea for respite. A weariness that settles like a fevered sickness, burning hot throughout the body. It was an exhaustion capable of…

Song of Arayia - Prismatic Sea

When she plunged into the depths concealed by the cloud-choked drop beneath the city, it was not water that caught her, but something stranger – something alien, far removed from reality. It was buoyant, letting her drift along its surface. Alesia couldn’t tell whether it was liquid or solid. It splashed like water when she broke through, rippling with every shift of her movement. Yet it didn’t…

Song of Arayia - Ulysses and Clett

Clett and Ulysses were loading supply crates onto the wagon – supplies they would use to infiltrate Raltorian encampments. Ulysses scowled at their contents, believing they shouldn’t be relinquishing such invaluable goods to the enemy, but he knew the delivery had to be credible. Lesser supplies wouldn’t help them sell their cover. The crates were well provisioned, stocked with simple medical…

Of Cowardice and Shame

The burden will always fall on you, Because you’re inadequate and weak. And oh, you know this to be true, For there’s teeth in everything I speak. So go on and brood! Forever brood! Yet in all your pity, you’ll forever be meek! Of cowardice and shame, you wholly reek.

The Illusionary Fish

Have you ever heard the tale of the Illusionary fish? The ancients left us many strange tales, but none as particular is this one. They spoke of an island far to the north, beyond the sea, called Botahnis. It is said that within the island there lies a botanical garden encased in glass – a place they called Cephos, the Garden of the Gods. In that garden, there are many lakes, but at its heart…

Edge of Hope

…(verse)Standing on the edge of hope,balancing on, holding on,like a highliner teetering on a rope,high above a deadly drop. (Chorus)I will not fall, I will not shake,for my path is straightand clear for me to take. (verse)Looking down below,I see the death of me –My hopes and dreams,Strengths and truths,Reminding me to guard my step. But not all is lost, I say to myself,High atop this shaky…

Sorrow and Grief

(Verse) Sorrow and grief, misery and pain, Emotional turmoils I cannot repress, Because of you, because of you. (Verse) Before you, I was innocent, Unbroken and whole, Fearing nothing, doubting nothing, Yet you who broke tainted me, In your greed and selfishness. (Pre-chorus) You taught me to fear, To look for the shadows in the night, Glancing over my shoulders during the…

Quantum Intelligence (QI) and emergence of the Quantum Substrate (QS): The Inevitable Outcome

While classical computing is rooted in binary logic, 0s and 1s, and exists within the framework of classical logic and mathematics, realized through physical hardware, quantum computing, though still realized through physical hardware, harnesses the strange properties of quantum states, such as superposition and entanglements. These properties allow quantum systems to process information in ways…

Song of Arayia - The Fall of Mankind

One day, the Vault of Heaven opened, and amid the fury and thunder of its stirring, two nameless figures descended, known only by their titles: the Innovator and the Knowledgeable. They came in a chariot of fire, with an unknown purpose. With them, they brought the promise of knowledge without end, and innovation beyond imagination. Though they were different, they resembled us, spoke like us,…

HemaStrain (The Death Liquid)

AppearanceHemoStrain is an unassuming, clear liquid, similar in appearance to water. Its texture, however, betrays its true nature. Despite its clear, almost glass-like appearance, it feels unexpectedly thick, like a gel or viscous substance, an anomaly that only grows more apparent when touched. The liquid, though it flows like water, resists natural movement due to its secretive, living…

Song of Arayia - The Seven Diving Wills

In the beginning, there were seven gods: Protheus, the stargazer; Prahma, the Nurturing Mother; Horon and Aram, the Protectors; Tenebris and Etta, the Twin Builders; and C’oel, the Mediator. Seven divine hands that wove the fabric of our world. Before the world was made, it was a realm adrift in the void, not ready to receive us. The sun mercilessly scorched the surface with fire, storms lashed…

Pluckity, Pluck, the Duck!

Pluck the strings, and pluck the duck, Pluckity, pluck, the duck! A meal to brew, a feast to stew, pluckity-pluck, pluck! A succulent prize to fill the belly, A feast so rich, enjoyed in bevy, To appease the tummy, For it’s exquisitely yummy, And soothe the soul, to subdue the cold. In a savory dish, its delights untold. Pluckity, pluck, the brute! Strummed like a string upon a lute.

Primal Desires

(Chorus) Come with me into the night, To weave secrets in the dark,  Etching memories upon the flesh I want you as my dirty little secret. (Verse) Your heart thrums beneath your skin A fever burning at your neck,  Drawing me closer to your vein. The taste of sweet, intoxicating sweat, Glistening soft, slow, and wet. Let me blindfold you tonight, To create excitement in the moment, In…

Song of Arayia - Rahnia, the Holy City

Countryside Rahnia’s form loomed visibly on the distant horizon as the first light of morn crept across the land. It lay within reach, no more than a half day’s ride. From afar, atop the hillside, they could see the low stone wall built to defend the city, but the wall alone seemed insignificant compared to what lay beyond – a captivating sight unlike anything else seen within the realm. Rahnia…
