《Encounters Out There》To Bring Peace and Prosperity to Your World
Advertisement
One Earth government received a first contact message from extraterrestrials.
A United Space Force Earth Defense patrol reported:
"Madame President, alien robots have landed, and they appear capable of destroying everything."
An HQ communications officer said, "We're receiving another message, Madame President. It's in English."
"What are they here for?" asked the president.
"Ma'am, the aliens orbiting Earth said their robots are here to end poverty, disease, crime, and war. To bring about world peace and order for a new post-scarcity era."
"They do appear heavily armed, which makes them a clear threat to us. We need to disable those robots now!" said General Clark.
"No, wait!" interrupted an exobiologist. "Maybe they're being sincere. The weapons they carry are likely only for their own protection."
"It's now or never, Madame President," said the general.
"General Clark, send in your infiltrators."
…
Once the infiltrators arrived and boarded the alien ship, they disabled the robots’ command control center while ground troops destroyed them.
"General, sir, this is Captain Bogdan reporting. There's a holographic layout of the ship inside here. If we can get to the core, we can probably disable the entire ship."
General Clark glanced at the president, who gave him a nod. "Proceed, Captain."
The infiltrators found aliens floating in 'tanks of liquid' within the ship's core.
"Earthlings, please do not tamper with our ship. Let us return home. We've warned our homeworld to avoid your planet in the future."
"How do you speak English? Who are you?" asked Captain Bogdan.
"We've been monitoring your planet for centuries and believed you were ready. We're volunteers with what you call disabilities, neurologically linked to the robots who gave us freedom. We came to you on a philanthropic mission to bring peace and prosperity to your world. If you try to disable our ship, it'll self-destruct and destroy your planet with it."

Of Men and Dragons, Book 2
Jack, S'haar, and all their family are back. After crashing his ship on an underdeveloped world, Jack found friends and family among the terrifying cat-lizard natives of the world, but now mere survival is no longer enough. They must carve out a new home for themselves in the landscape of the now rapidly changing world. Raiders, politics, and even nature threaten their happiness and their lives while they struggle to deal with the nightmares and traumas of yesterday. They'll need to depend on each other more than ever if they hope for their new home to have any kind of future. In case you missed it, here's book one. ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

A sickness is spreading. Dungeons are dying and crumbling to dust. Monsters that had been residing in them gather in hordes and spill out in waves over the neighboring kingdoms, swallowing them whole. The last of the Heroes are dying out. For some reason, new heroes haven’t been born or summoned into this world for the last century. Oracles have no answers. They are going blind and mute: seeing no futures and telling no prophecies. And while all this is happening, the [Voice], the entity that had been guiding everyone from the very beginning of time, is silent. Leaving humans and others with no guidance to solve this problem. Is this the end of Time? Author's note: Being someone with full-time work and with a rolling schedule, I'll update whenever I have time, so no promises on a consistent schedule. *This is a slow paced story with dungeon building elements showing up later on. *In this world, a dungeon seed first needs to prove its worth and only then it gets the chance to become a dungeon core and grow. *All art is by me

One where his race, which once reigned supreme, is treated like trash along the roadside. Will he, with his diverse crew, be able to save the galaxy while fixing the hostility between the races?
