"Why can't I just go to Nana's and Papa's like I always do?" I asked as I cleaned the dishes from lunch. "Because, with Josh gone to college, we'll need some help." Mom said as she looked out the window, waiting for Dad to come back. "You've never needed my help over the summer." I said under my breath. "Honey, we need your help now." Mom said, having heard me. "Why can't the 'new people' help?" I asked. "Honey, renting some of the house out is our best option right now. I know you don't like the idea of someone you don't know living in our house, but we need extra money for treatment." Mom explained. "But, why do I have to be here?" I asked as I put the dishes away. "To help take care of Josie and help work the farm." She said. "And can't Josie go with me to Nana's and Papa's?" I asked. "Morgan, please! Just give these kids chance. They're your age and it's just for the summer." Mom argued. "Yeah, just the summer." I said. "Momma, when is Daddy coming home?" Josie asked, walking into the kitchen. "Soon, Josie, very soon." Mom said, looking out the window again. "I'm going out to the horses." I said. "Don't go out to far this time." Mom said, not looking back at me. "Whatever." I said. Just as I walked out of the kitchen door, I heard the familiar horn of my Dad's Nissan pickup. Great, they're here.

NOVA INTERIT.US
It's 2063, and the town along with much of the nation are in disarray. The decay started years before the Great Event. Our town still had hope thanks to the five families, who'd created a blockchain based water distribution system for the locals, a valuable secret hidden from the Global Water Commission and their network of mercenaries. Earlier in the mid-2040's, right after the state secessions of Idaho, Montana, and Texas, the Global Council of Water Commissioners made their deals and moved into towns throughout the country. They called it "the integration." The Commission and their contractors integrated with municipal water departments, using their organized network to invade like parasites on local services. It all coincided with the 29th Amendment to the United States Constitution, later referred to as the Regional Trident Plan. Nova is a story about survival, power structures, the turning of relationships, and the networking between people and the systems to which they belong. It’s about A.I. blockchain possibility, and its potential for human betterment versus our detriment. It’s about the question of whether or not we need to be saved from ourselves, and by who or what? The Great Event at the end of the first chapter might just be what actually saves us. The epilogue will take place in 2517. This scene is fully sketched and the full arc of the novel is set. I expect to finish Nova Interitus by summer of 2023. This is realist hard-sci-fi dystopian fiction. I hope you find Nova to be a challenging and consuming story. This is not something I planned to write. It all came to me in a dream and I haven't been able to stop writing it. This Royal Road posting is basically a beta test with chapters and drafts to get some feedback and see if there's any readership for this narrative. For the full experience read Nova on Substack. I will be narrating a podcast version later this year there. https://novainteritus.substack.com/
