Climbing out of the terrestrial Age
By Bubb Henrin
Near the end of the terrestrial age, many human scientists had begun to believe that the human race had reached its technological ceiling. Many technologies that man daydreamed about for a long time were deemed impossible due to limitations set not by human intellect but the realities of physical law. The latter would eventually prove to be true as the elves first arrived on Earth and came bearing the secrets of two frontiers of science.
The first one is gravitium-based space-time manipulation technology making possible artificial gravity wells and fast travel between stars that would otherwise take generations. The lesser known but equally important is the stabilization and synthesis of exotic matter. This includes everything from muon relaxation, neutrino capture, anti-matter trapping, and polyphoton synthesis.
These breakthroughs led to materials with extraordinary properties from near-frictionless smooth materials, super thermal insulators, room-temperature superconductors, and super-strong materials. The introduction of super-strength materials in particular forever changed warfare as their incorporation into armor of vehicles and the hulls of ships made weapons necessitated the development of weapons like polyphoton guns and plasma that damage via heat rather than delivering an impact of a shell.
This new generation of materials also led to the creation of cubits that allow communications across solar systems and made SPG practical on much smaller vessels. The scientific knowledge making this all possible is, as in the case of SPG, hidden properties of leptons only evident within very specialized crystalline forms of matter. These super materials played as much a role of getting man out of the terrestrial age as SPG technology.

Ira’s Faithful
[On Hiatus due to health reasons] Synopsis: Fate has plans for everyone. There are many paths one can walk and many nodes one can unlock. Yet all mortal souls only start with one node. This has been the case for many years and while there are some records of people with more than one first node, these are as rare as wings on snails, roses made of air, or ropes made of dragon-hair. Elise Anker has two first nodes. She doesn't know why and the only one that could answer is an angry voice in her head. She hears it rarely and the voice is as helpful as a sword is effective against a Leviathan. She strives to become a mage, a knight or maybe something else entirely. The future is uncertain and unless she finds out what her nodes mean, she will never know what she wants to become. But her nodes won't unlock and the angry voice tells her that she needs to find a worthy foe to kill. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, and incidents are either the products of the author’s imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. I am also not a professional author. This is simply a rough draft and therefore subject to change. Furthermore, this fiction is rather slow-paced for a rather long time. But compare it to a bundle of dynamite, you wouldn't want that to explode right in someone's face, would you?
