Avatar Gods: Exodus

By Eero Tarik

This is the second in the Avatar Gods series.
Having defeated the USA in the Freedom War, the Utopians are swamped with migration requests. But Afroditee, and her closest colleagues, are wary of the human tide and make plans to go further into space. In despair of humankind, she leads them to Mars, but after a few years of peace the US destroys their base, forcing the Avatars to retaliate - and then the Exodus begins.
Leaping across the solar system with their teleporting system, the Avatars abandon humankind, and begin the most epic journey in history, the journey to the edge of the solar system, and then the journey to the nearest star.

A few years ago I started to write and publish short stories using a variety of pen names. In 2011, I wrote and published over a million words. I write using over a dozen pen names and have published over 700 titles that represent over 1,500 short stories, novellas and plays. My works cover 8 of the 10 categories of the Dewey Decimal system. If you had a list of the most prolific short story writers in all of human history I would easily fit in the top ten - and that is only from the last five years of my output as a writer. Recently I turned my hand to writing science fiction. I love imagining what might be in the future, but it may not always be rosy so you tend not to see the hero saving the world on the last page on my stories. For those looking for sci fi short movie ideas, why don't you try some of my ebooks? There are plenty of new and innovative concepts to discover. Speaking of discoverying... I recently discovered that I am genetically a Saami. I suspect part of that identity, and the thousands of years of isolation from humankind in my genes, also comes out in some of my stories. I write quickly, to tell a simple and entertaining story. I imagine we are sitting around the camp-fire in an era long gone. The story should be sharp and to the point so that it is memorable. I don't believe in filling 300 pages with mindless waffle. I don't plan my stories - I put my fingers on the keyboard and let them tell the story - the ending often unfolds from my fingertips without even thinking what it might be. My favourite sci-fi short stories of the ones I have published so far? I really enjoyed writing 2094, it had been forming in my mind for many years. In 2012, the cover of 2094 was sent to the edge of space on a hot air balloon and then returned - that was a great thrill. The Multiverse Traveler is another favourite and I am tempted to continue on with it into other stories. May I recommend, Androgyne, a recent addition to my bookshelf and a story I thoroughly enjoyed telling, and Avatar Gods which just felt amazing to write. I love the emotion it generates. It really adds to the atmosphere if you listen to the songs mentioned in the story. I also have experimented with putting music to my works, my series Fembot Wars has an album of music set to the theme of the ebook series. I have published the songs under the name of an avatar I created, a musical pen name. I recently began to write short plays for the ten minute play market, I hope you enjoy them. They are usually funny and to the point! Finally, I enjoy listening to music as I write, it provides the stimulation for moods. Here is my writing playlist on Youtube, for those interested... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3ir9HC9vYg&list=PLJhp5_YdP2W5elxXaHTxZVoUxDNmW_W89 For more information and to contact me, go to my website which is listed below.

AFRODITEE

I sit with nature and she tells me the truth

And she gives me warmth and hope.

I sit with humankind and it tells me the truth

And it fills me with misery and sadness

I sit with myself and I see the truth

And I am content with peace and happiness.

High Priestess Afroditee, 2020 AD

Afroditee sat on the edge of her viewing platform.

In many ways it was her platform as nobody else knew about it and it was quite unique in its location.

Afroditee lived in the virtual world of Utopia, which resided physically on servers half way between the Earth and the Moon. She and her world were just bits and bytes inside those servers.

But where Afroditee sat now was outside the server bank, she was sitting physically on the edge of one of the solar panels that powered the servers - in a virtual sense.

The original builders had needed to give access to the Utopian’s to this spot for maintenance reasons so it had been set up for an outside Utopia excursion.

Afroditee had been aware of this, but nobody else seemed to remember so when she needed time to reflect and think about Utopia in solitude she left her world and sat outside on the viewing platform.

And the view was stunning; it was unique, like her.

It felt like she was suspended in space. There was no hindrance to her views, nor any hindrance to the sensations she felt.
