《The Great Voyage》The Voyage
Advertisement
As the ship exited the furthermost reaches of our atmosphere and was welcomed into the endlessly dark embrace of space, it slowed down and began moving forward with nothing except a gentle hum.
The speakers sprang to life with a piercing feedback squeal, indicating that one of the creators was about to speak to the crew.
Noah explained how the Time Contraption worked. Interjections and comments were made in between by the rest of the creators during the long speech.
Time, was a complex and primordial construct. The one real "scale" that measured every event as it ensued in the cosmic time line. The contraption would work in ways that could only be described as anomalous : it would render the entire ship immune to that "scale".
The Titanic would, quite literally, elude time itself. Travel outside the bounds of the cosmic time line, evading the measurement of Time. And in doing so, it would be effectively immortal and everlasting.
Anything that traveled outside the cosmic time line could not be measured, and hence, could never age.
The ship would still take billions of years to reach the estimated edge of the universe, but since it would be travelling outside the time line, no time would pass inside the time line at all.
To all observers, it would seem as if the Titanic completed it's great voyage in the blink of an eye. But the reality would be an immortal crew travelling for billions of years to reach an edge that could, in all probability, be even further away than initially hypothesized.
Cryo sleep chambers installed would be used to keep the members on-board in a state of infinite stasis until their destination had been reached.
The speakers had returned to their dormant states and the crew once again busied itself in preparations for Cryo sleep. This was it.
The Great Voyage had begun.
The Cryo sleep was activated. The whole ship fell silent and the only thing audible was the gentle hum of the ship as it traveled in the infinite vastness of space.

To Become a Troll: A Monster Evolution Story
Thrust into the supernatural world of the deep forest, Paul finds himself in a situation where he could find himself prey to pretty much every other creature and animal around. If he's to survive, he must shed his weak form to grow stronger and survive. But the forest is full of creatures beyond human understanding, that act without the need for food or shelter and that seem to exist for the sole purpose of dragging humans to the bottom of a murky river. Is it really possible to kill such creatures when your only strength is physical prowess? --- A monster evolution story based on Swedish creature mythology. The focus will overwhelmingly be on the progression of the main character and his slow increase in strength. Although many of the creatures are based on Swedish creature mythology, I have taken creative liberties in order to ensure that evolution lines and the such are in line with the usual. The main thought I had when going into this is that I want to delay the "meeting a human" section as much as possible. My plan is to get him to endgame levels of strength before even sniffing the possibility of seeing a human. Whether I'm actually able to do this remains to be seen, but I'm holding my thumbs! Also, I'm aware that there are other troll evolution stories, but this is unrelated to them. They can do their stuff and I'll do mine, but this is in no way related to any of them. That said, hope you enjoy it!
