An electronic sign sparks,
Caution Active Highway
It says, the words on the LED screen flashing on and off,
The highway is anything but active however, rows of cars pile the streets in a long line all empty…..
Fwoo~.
A soft breeze brushes past my face,
It smell dense and poisonous that I’m sure if my human body were actually here it would have died instantly by the toxic air,
..
Blamm!
I touch a car and its door immediately falls off; this causes a chain reaction that makes the entire vehicle fall apart
(They must have been here for long)
The many buildings that populate this apparent city are all old and crumbly, I fear if I even touch a door one the buildings will start falling apart like this car
All the vehicles seem to driving out of the city however,
Like a panic was the air
(I wonder what happened here?)
The city doesn’t look damaged or attacked,
(I guess I’ll see where these cars are going)
….
….
As the view transitions from the numerous city structures and architecture into the broader highway, it becomes much less crowded,
The sides of the roads are large fields that probably used to be grassy, now they’re filled with sand,
The sky above I hadn’t been pay attention to since the city was still well lit, but out here it’s dark,
Not dark as in night
There are no sun, moon or stars when I look up
Just black
……
……
Now Leaving Eldorado City– Universal Space Station Up Ahead
I read from a traffic sign
It appears all these people were headed there…
(Why?)
…….
Bcrrrzzzt
Bcrrrzzzt!
Bcrrrzzzt!!
(Hmmm?)
Bcrrrzzzt!
One of the cars appears to still be running
Bcrrrzzzt!
Slam!!
I pull open the door and falls off, the rest of the car remains standing however,

Bcrrrzzzt!!
A screen on the dashboard sparks, flashing on and off,
Date: June 13/2723–Generation: 666
(The year is two thousand seven hundred and twenty-three?
What does generation mean?)
Time: ∞
(The time is infinite)
Bcrrrzzzt!
Bcccccrrrrzzzztttt!
The dashboard screen sparks violently as I reach out, before shutting off
(…..)
…….
…….
Continuing on the path of cars I now keep my ears open in case there are any other working vehicles
……
*****
........
The road gradually gets steeper over time, a vast view of sand can now be over looked from where I am
This appears to be a coasty area the sea however is now a desert
Nearing the space center the cars all have their doors swung open rusty keys and other deteriorating possessions litter the ground here
It is evident that the drivers got this close and abandoned their cars, probably frantically running into the space station….
The aforementioned station gates are wide open the cars blocking the entrance,
Bammm!
Bamm!!
Some vehicles fall apart as I squeeze paste them by the gate
A large tower of glass and steel overlooks the yard below,
To the back of the space centers yard is an empty runway,
Judging from the view this space center is at top a cliff side near what was an ocean…
….
Crunch♪
Crunch♪
My feet step onto the broken glass in the station’s entrance.
The glass doors most likely broken by a crowd people rushing in,
Grzzzt!!
The lights flicker
Walking past the empty reception are now empty offices and waiting rooms for civilians,
*Click*
I press at the elevator panel
(Obviously it doesn’t work)
Pingg!♪
The door does open, nevertheless
But it’s just an empty shaft,
(Up or down?)
….
(Who am even asking?)
“hyuh!”
I leap into the shaft

Falling…….
……….
……….
……….
……….
……….
……….
……All the way to the bottom
Thumd!
I land on my feet effortlessly,
(I should have gone up first if I knew I was going to end up so far below)
…..
(Then again, they always keep the secrets below)
Grrrrrrraaaaammmm!
Tearing open the shaft doors at the bottom I enter into a curious room,
It is lit up under a dark green light,
Universe Status
At the head of the room a screen still runs it doesn’t display anything except for a black space
(It’s so dark you wouldn’t even notice the screen was on)
Crcck♪!
I accidentally step on a headset,
The floor is littered with them…
(Headsets?)
They just lie there as if the people wearing them had suddenly turned to dust.
(So strange…)
…….
*Click-click-click-tap-tap*
I’m just pressing random buttons at this point….
…..
Beeeeooowwwp!
(And it seems to have worked)
Memory wave converter
The words flash on a screen now,
EHHHNNCCKK!!
Then it buzzes red
Satellites inactive: Unable to run conversion,
(So this was a control room to activate satellites that converted memories?)
…..
I pick up one of the headsets growing increasing curios
Yin
One side of the ear pieces has printed on
Yang
On the other
(Hmmmm
I’m guessing these aren’t for music…)
Placing it on my ears I–
–Aghhh!
Aghhhhkk!
The buzzing
Aghhhhkk!
It pierces stronger than ever before so much so that I can’t even move to take it off
My senses all my feeling disabled
Ahhcckkk!
Stop!
Beeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeep!
Assessing errors…
The buzzing gradually fades into a robotic voice
Errors assessed…..

Explore the summer before her senior year that triggered the domino effect of Elizabeth's emotional and psychological breakdown that lead her to take her own life.

In the meantime, I'm writing a side story called Mourning Glory that takes place between the second and third act of Petrichor. Development is going rather fast so I suggest to to read that if you like this story

Taverns edge - A mercenary's guide to Ley Line traveling
The taverns edge is a fiction that centers around a pair of unusual friends. A mercenary that happens to be a princess of fae, but prefers to stay in a well-known établissement instead of staying in the Sidhe. Moira. Being half a dragon doesn't really help getting along with snobbish elitists at her mother's court. Like all sidhe she likes to strike a good deal... Which has led into many a disaster... Though she always tends to get by, especially when she gets home to the Tavern on the edge. The mentioned établissement is run by the formidable Barkeeper and jack of all trades Tora, who happens to have a very interesting past. Which involves more than one sinister secret... Now add to the mix a totally clueless elven girl - a mortal, not a fae- on the run. Lunara. She has unknowingly struck a deal with the devil - quite literally. Now unable to handle the consequences on her own she enters the tavern on the edge. An epicenter for magic and the only place where she might find help. She talks Moira into helping her out. A race against time begins as the deal's symbols appear on Lunara's skin. The journey leads to the dwarven empire, the sidhe and wherever the crossing leylines under the tavern may lead. This fiction belongs to the same universe as Ancient Blood. English is not my native language, so please don't be harsh. This story is an adaption of an idea, that we, a friend of mine and me, have developed over a few months while taking a break from learning. Some parts were written by Emberspark. Thank you for allowing me to work with your ideas and letting me publish this as a whole. Updates... I will try to frequently update both of my fictions... Well in case you are interested I post it on Scribble hub, too. I really don't steal from myself 😂
