Anno Stellae 2456, Anno Stellae 2460, Anno Stellae 4130, Anno Stellae 4133, Anno Stellae 4146: RetroStar Chronicles, #2

By R.D. Ginther

     Chronicle 29 Volume 2 starts off with the Alien Entity devouring clusters of galaxies and the black hole Sagittarius A West cleaning up what was left.  Wally IV in the meanwhile tries his best to find a new moon for Earth II and proceeds to outwit the Alien Entity to do it for him. But his plan was influenced by Dr. Pikkard, who along with Pieter, is seen in a unique dialogue discussing how to combat this alien force.

     

Chronicle 30 helps to give more insight concerning the differences between Earth I and Earth II from the point of view of Captain Emerson. He served under Commander Nilsson in his vendetta against Chillingsworth. It is while space travelling that  his ship and crew were consumed by the Black hole and spat out again later on to discover Earth II demise.

 

      Chronicle 31 starts off with Wally VI luring the Alien Entity into another trap but not successfully. It is here at this point that he has to wait patiently for his Opponent in the wargame to make another slip up. But in the meanwhile, he had to watch as the Alien Entity brings two worlds together which will ultimately cause them to collide and to crash. In watching these events unroll, we are taken back into time, to a place called Nazareth in Galilee. The key players here are Maryam, Yosef  and Yeshua. Their daily lives are stated in simple dialogues and other characters are revealed.

 

     Chronicle 32, there is a continuation of this retrogression to biblical times. Pilatus and his wife Procula are also deep in dialogue which reveals much of the times that they are living in. Nothing screams retrogression to us today than  the words  'steam Caravan', although it was revered as a mark of progression for the Romans at that time. Pilatus is proud of their inventions, including the new and improved aqueducts. What is common throughout all these ancient scenarios is a lone blue butterfly that seems to hover and to observe the events.

 

     Chronicle 33, Maryam is in deep consideration regarding her son Yeshua who was dedicated  in the grand temple by Simeon and an aged seeress called Anna. They spoke glowing words concerning him and later as he got older, he began to move away from his carpentry and masonry, as Maryam suspected, to be the Messiah. Yeshua eventually left home but this was not a total surprise to Maryam.

 

    All five chronicles in total are about 147 pages. There is a shift in the story as the Red Star is trying to manipulate the past, however the blue butterfly A.K.A Wally IV the supercomputer is seen hovering within each episode. This is the necessary reminder that the Wargame is still at large!

CHRONICLE 29

VOLUME 2

ANNO STELLAE 2458

"Thy Righteousness is like the great mountains,

Thy judgments are a great deep..."

Psalm 36:6a,

Book of the Wars of  Heaven and Earth

1    Much Ado About A  Key

The red star zipped into Perseus, a supercluster of thousands of galaxies near what had been Earth’s home in the Local Supercluster.  Soon it was on its way to Coma and QSO 241+622,  neighboring Galactic Superclusters containing millions of galaxies.

At that point Earth’s former home, the Local Supercluster that had once contained the Milky Way Galaxy,  showed signs of  trouble.  It was so serious it  dwarfed what had happened in the Earth’s Solar System to utter insignificance.  MIO1,  M66, NGC 3245,  NGC 2997,  Virgo,  Ursa  Major, M96, and others exploded from multiple supernovas—billions of exploding stars within each galaxy detonating at the same time.

After mopping up what was left of the Milky Way, the Sagittarian Black Hole proceeded to do the same with the debris of the Local Supercluster.  When that was accomplished, it would be pulled toward the Galactic Superclusters of Perseus and Coma and QSO 241+622 in turn, where the process was exactly repeated.  It was almost like a London street cleaner with handcart and broom,  following the horses and dogs and collecting their droppings. 

Wally’s  errand concerned  the absence of a Moon.  How and where was he going to get one?  Months passed in the new year and he still had found no solution to his lack of  an operational quark turbine.  With that much power, he could move a moon from somewhere in 3C 295 to Earth’s location.  If only the quark engines in Crystal Mountain had not been all necessary, he would have held at least one in reserve, but they needed them all to make sure the planet was moved far enough away to elude OP, only to discover on arrival they had been ‘cookied,’ and OP was on site to meet them!

Now the quark engines as good as burnt out and useless, should he just forget the project?  Yet the sky was nothing like the former, and he could see it was having a depressing effect on repopulation, human and animal.  A Moon was absolutely indispensable,  if Earthlings were to feel they were still on the Earth and not an alien planet.

Unable to decide what to do, he reviewed his programming by the sub-file programmer,  Dr. Pikkard, thinking some detail might suggest what he might do.

Immediately,  Dr. Pikkard and his assistant came to life, in a recreated diorama drawn from data files,  that showed them discussing things back in Wally I’s facility in New York-New Amsterdam. 

Actually, it was the professor who was doing all the talking in the VRM mode.

Pieter, as we have heard confirmed, there are several other supercomputers that survived the 22nd Century and the English disease.  Maybe it’s because they were the very last to be buried in cement and thus were overlooked.  I have no idea.  But I’ve got to find the others and contact them, if only for the old man from centuries ago you saw speaking to us of his doomed world society.  Thank God, other Crays were mentioned in Commander Nilsson’s message.  I will now make every effort to access them.  I will store in them everything I’ve learned on this question and let the future—if there is one—decide what to do with the knowledge.

The professor went back to the keyboard.  It took some minutes, but he finally flashed Pieter a triumphant smile.

All this is still new to me, but I am learning fast.  The secret file may still be hidden under a code—a password I  may not be able to discover in my lifetime.  But, attaching my sub-file to it, I have stored the things I want to survive us—the Wargame strategy.  I have located the other Crays in North and South America, as well as the one in Earth orbit, and sent everything the game needs in order to be played.  I have also found some experimental turbines as well hidden in the Andean mountains of eastern Bolivia and told the Crays to look into the facility when they find  time.  Are you following me, dear boy?

Pieter nodded doubtfully.

I see I am getting ahead of myself again!  At any rate, the War of the Solar System, Sun, and Planet Earth began long before our lifetimes, but now we have joined as combatants!  The Crays know all that is necessary to fight OP, the Opposing Player,  whatever way society will probably take—until the pre-selected target date,  ANNO 5391.  A game has to have a conclusion, after all, and that year is as good as any, I think.  When the end approaches, this information about the war and the world’s decline will all come to light.  Hopefully, what I have preserved from my own humble efforts will enlighten a far future generation,  enough for them to do something constructive about what has torn our present world down, brick by brick and stone by stone in its mad quest of self-expression and self-aggrandizement.

The professor glanced at Pieter then laughed.

I see I am getting ahead of myself!  At any rate, if the Crays’ future projections are correct, the conflict will really get hot during the periods ahead.  Campaigns will be fought, of course, over my findings, followed by a repeat of  Ancient Rome, ending with Pharaoh’s Egypt.  Ultimately— 

Dr. Pikkard finished and continued to strike the keyboard.
