2023.03.20 19:54 rogueamazondrone The real reason transracialism is frowned upon.

Many people love doing this disingenuous virtue signaling about transracialism, when they're full of shit. The real reason they don't like it is because they don't want POC to gain white privilege by whitemaxxing. People should be able to do whatever they want with their bodies.
Kpop idols are a great example of this with how much they trigger people for being "plastic." They get injections to look pale, facial surgery and filler, and dye their hair and use colored contacts. They go from looking 100% asian to looking hapa (https://media.tenor.com/hDFmcnd-Y7cAAAAC/lisa-lalisa-manoban.gif) or like a whiter looking latino (https://kpopping.com/documents/76/5/220325-EVERGLOW-Twitter-Update-Aisha-documents-1.jpeg?v=20204). Of course this makes (white) westerners mad because they can compete with whites in looks and are loved all over the world due to looking closer to white. and of course white celebs get a fuckton of surgery to fit their beauty standards too.
It's funny how them being plastic doesn't stop opposite sex people from thirsting over kpop idols, which shows it's pure jealousy and gatekeeping.
Personally, I would prefer POC be happy with their ethnic features. This won't happen any time soon, but I enjoy seeing them whitemaxx and triggering people who think whites are so special. It's also interesting how men are allowed to claim to be women because women are less respected in society. But when POC want to cash in on whiteness, they get hate.

2023.03.20 19:36 jbochsler I'll just call SAR (long)

[A shorter version of this post went out as a response a while back, u/numbershikes commented that this would be valuable as a standalone post, so here we are.]

TL;DR: SAR rescues aren't like what you see on TV - they take longer and consume a lot of volunteer resources that have both immediate and long term impacts on volunteer lives. What you can do to facilitate a SAR call:
See case study [1] at end.


I am a volunteer Lieutenant FF/EMT that lives and works in Okanagan-Wenatchee National Forest, and 7 miles from the PCT (near Spectacle Lake). My original career was as an electrical/firmware engineer, I moved here on early retirement and started working fire, then EMS and rescue. I have 2000+ hours of training [3], and typically 400+ hours of training a year. This includes structure and wildland fire, along with avalanche recovery, shoreline and river rescue, ice rescue, EMS, low angle ropes rescue, and rescue vehicle operations. Many of my SAR colleagues have far more training than this. I solo hike 800+ miles a year and snowshoe another 250.
These statements are my own, they do not represent the opinions or policies of my FD or SAR.
I wanted to provide some background information for hikers when you are in the wilderness and faced with a risk/reward decision, and part of your decision making process is 'if my plan fails, I will just call SAR'. Please remember that the communities that are providing the incident call response resources are often tiny. A 250 person community does not have paid staff waiting to come to your aid. Most of the responders are volunteers - they are stopping their daily lives, getting their gear and meeting, coming up with a plan, requesting additional resources, etc. They are highly trained and have done this before - but they aren't standing by their rig, waiting for your call.
My Fire Department/District (FD) often gets paged for mutual-aid on SAR calls for equipment, manpower and skills. We also rescue hikers, snowshoers, mountain bikers and see lots of snow machine trauma in the adjacent forest, along with the mayhem associated with NFS campgrounds. Most of the wilderness rescue work is outside of our charter, but we can often get the patient (PT) located, stabilized, packaged and to pavement before a SAR team can be mustered (most SAR members are 35 miles away).
Timeline:
Unless you call from a trailhead (TH) adjacent to a road, SAR will be involved in your rescue. Assume 1 hour time per mile from the nearest TH before a responder is at your incident. The more accurate you are with your location, the faster the response.
Resources:
The response crew that you meet on the trail are the 'tip of the iceberg'. There can easily be 20+ people involved on the call [1], more if there is an air evacuation. For small communities this means pulling in people from adjacent communities, which means yet more response latency.
Ground Transport:
Rescue teams are bound by the same wilderness access constraints as hikers. If you are hiking in an area that doesn't allow motorized vehicles - the responders will not be using motorized vehicles to come to your aid. If you are a 4 hour hike in from the trailhead, the responders will be hiking in as well - with their support gear along with the EMS and rescue gear, they are likely carrying more weight than you.
Air Transport:
The odds of an initial helicopter response to your incident is near zero. A helicopter will typically be requested only after a ground crew reaches the incident, assesses the scene, and determines whether a helicopter is necessary. Helos are very expensive and very limited resources, and requests are triaged, it isn't uncommon for helo requests to be denied due to insufficient resources. I have seen this happen multiple times. A broken ankle in the wilderness vs. an MVA, obstetric complications, etc., the ankle is going to lose.
Also, helicopter extrication is expensive $5-15k, and your insurance likely doesn't cover it. You should have helo insurance.
What you can do to facilitate a SAR call:
The number one thing you can do to help - make good choices and don't take unnecessary risks - e.g. walk the extra half mile to find a better place to ford the river, skip that photo shot from the cornice. That said - if you are in trouble, we do want you to call, and sooner rather than later. Given the response timeline, waiting too long can potentially change the incident from rescue to recovery. Recovering bodies takes a cumulative personal toll on the teams including the dogs. Each recovery is a tragedy, and meeting a distraught family, weeping on the side of the road in the dark, is soul crushing.

We are here and eager to help and want you to have a positive and safe journey.
Following is an PCT incident response case study.
jack

[1] Last June, I worked a PCT call, a solo hiker on the PCT south of SnoPass had severely twisted a previously damaged ankle. It took over 20 people to get the PT off the trail, down the mountain and into the ambulance. It was pouring rain and we were in 4' of snow.
The PTs initial call to 911 went out at 5:25pm. The PT was lucky enough to catch a cell tower at their location. And the PT was capable enough to send their GPS coordinates to 911 to facilitate location. Search and Rescue (SAR) was immediately deployed. My FD was paged [2] at 7:10pm when SAR determined that they didn't have sufficient resources and needed our tracked rescue rig. The incident was 35 miles away from my FD, I had to trailer our UTV, connect to the tow vehicle, and was at command staging in a little over an hour. My FD chief drove separately in his command rig, and stayed at Incident Command while I drove to the forest road, de-trailered the UTV, picked up two SAR guys and headed up the mountain. The first three miles were muddy, washed out forest roads, the last mile was a solid snow floor. There was probably 3-4' of snow, and 6" of slush on the road where we met the forward command.
The first UTV at the forward command point was supporting the SAR advance team. When I arrived it was 100% dark and pouring rain. As we pulled up, the SAR advance team was just reaching the road with the PT. I did a quick PT assessment, loaded the PT and some of the field team gear and headed down the hill, hoping that the ambulance had arrived. As I left, the SAR team was drawing straws to determine who would be first to be shuttled via the other UTV down the hill to staging. After winding our way back down the hill, we met the ambulance at staging and loaded the PT for transport.
I handed off the PT to the ambulance at 9:30pm and immediately started the process of heading home. We turned the tow rig around, which given the narrowness of the road required decoupling the trailer, spinning it 180 by hand, then turning the tow vehicle and re-coupling the trailer. We then re-trailered the UTV and headed home, stopping to refuel the tow vehicle and UTV, then drove to the station, washed down the UTV, restocked it and put it back in storage. I made it home just before midnight - I had left the house at 5:30pm for a class, expecting to be home by 8pm. Thankfully we keep water and snacks on the rigs exactly for this reason.
The response was almost entirely completed by volunteers - except the 2 paramedics and 2 LEOs. The furthest SAR volunteer came in from over 65 miles away. Of the response personnel, more than half are EMTs. Of the group, I had probably worked with half before on other incidents. On snow scenes like this, only avalanche trained personnel are allowed to go up above the snowline as well. Everyone above the snowline was wearing an avalanche beacon as well as carrying a shovel and probe.
Rescue UTV
Overall the incident ran very smoothly. The only rough part was communications - the radios up the hill weren't reaching the IC/base command very well. Unfortunately I responded from the station and didn't have a chance to grab my rain pants, so all I had was my jacket, so that was a little miserable. It was nice to work an incident where the patient wasn't acute (e.g. heart attack, trauma) and we could work at a 'normal' pace rather than working at top speed, in the dark. If the patient was acute, you would have to add another 4-6 people to the personnel list - 2 people in a rescue helicopter and 2-4 people working the landing zone safety and communications.
The incident personnel breakdown:
There were 2 tracked UTVs including mine and one wheeled UTV (that was brought in but determined unusable), 1 ambulance, 1 aid unit, and lots and lots of vehicles - tow vehicles, equipment vehicles, comms vehicles, etc.
The staffing numbers seem like overkill until you work a scene. From the time I was paged to the time I returned, I never stopped moving (except for drive time) until midnight. Experience shows that it takes many hands. There isn't a single person I would have taken off that list. The initial team only had 5 people on scene with the PT when they requested additional resources. Carrying a PT across smooth level ground is hard. To carry a stokes basket cross country takes a minimum of 8 people. Carrying a PT in 4' of snow is literally back breaking. Particularly when you are carrying a pack with your own gear - as everyone needs to be self-sustaining.
In 2020 I worked on an avalanche recovery for 12+ hours that had twice as many people and 4 dogs. We were working in a valley that had 4 avalanches in the last 24-48 hours. I was on the overwatch team, positioned to rescue the search team in case of yet another avalanche. The search team had no alternative but to work in a known active avalanche zone because someone decided that it would be fun to go in there.
[2] The reason my FD was paged even though the PT / incident was so far outside of our district is that the configuration of UTV rescue rigs is seasonal - tracks in the winter, wheels in the summer. My FD is usually the last to swap tracks for wheels as we are farthest back into the woods and most likely to need tracks the latest in the season. The fire district closest to the incident had already swapped their tracks off so they were short one tracked UTV.
[3] FFs are trained and tasked to fight fires. Additional skills are acquired by additional training. For most skills, there are three levels of training - awareness, operations and technician. Awareness usually requires an 8 hour class, operations would be a 40 hour class, technician requires a 120 hour class. Once you have a skill, it then needs to be annually recertified - a refresher class along with skills and written test.

2023.03.20 19:36 mr98ss-reddit My Life and My Drug Addiction.

I want to get this off my chest. I'm gonna talk about the impact that my addiction to codeine has had on me and the things I've done to maintain this addiction. For the past five years, I've been taking it every day in cough syrup form which contains codeine and chlorpheniramine.
Note: What I'm sharing is completely my personal experience. I can't get any other alternative opiates other than this cough syrup. Also I have some severe family issues, no friends, no money for doctors and rehabs, also I live in a shitty country. So it's really hard to seek help for my addiction.
Things I've done to maintain my addiction:
I've done some terrible stuffs to feed my addiction. I ruined my career and couldn't keep showing to my job regularly. So I quit my high paying job and started doing whatever I could to get some money. Like I do freelance development, marketing etc. But it's really hard to get money from it when you have no freelancing experience and reputation. So I started using my credit cards. It went like that for months. I do drugs, eat food and be online. Then I maxed out my every cards, but never paid a single dime back. It was like 1000$ now and still charges adding up. My credit score went from 800 to below 600. My debts are marked as non performing assets. I get like hundreds of calls everyday from these lenders. I never answer any of them. They started spamming my life wherever they could.
After that I started borrowing money from my friends. Like I borrow 100$ to person A and live with that. When the money emptied I'll borrow another person. It went on like this. The disgusting thing is I never thought about paying those back. After it went like this everyone started knowing about my addiction and everyone will just deny if I asked any money. I requested money almost every single one from my contact lists. Now no one will lend me even a single penny. I got more than 1000$ in credit card debts and another 1000$ that I owe to people. I sold my laptop, bike and everything I could. I never bought anything other than drugs and food for the last five years. I'm exaggerating it. I never even bought a shirt for me in the last 5 years. And here I'm still doing the drug. Now I have literally zero with me and I didn't even eat from last two days. I'm literally starving to death. I went from 85kg to 60kg or even less now. And I couldn't forgot some incidents which gave me this immense trauma, embarrassment and humiliations. The only thing which gives me some relief is, I never stole or scammed anyone for money. Even when I ask money to my friends I won't lie neither say the truth. I'll just say I need it for personal reasons. I've recorded how much money I owe everyone even a single penny included. Hopefully I'll get my shit together for once and pay everything that I owe.
I'm gone from a healthy, smart and optimistic dude to a weak ugly piece of shit. I feel this overwhelming disgust all over me. I couldn't even look straight and be like a normal human anymore. I feel like I'm too weak and don't deserve to live. I always thought of killing myself, but the only thing which prevents me is the debts I owe to the people. I don't wanna die like this. So my brain was in this constant battle since I couldn't live neither die.
There are more stuffs that I didn't or forgot to mention above. If you think you've any suggestions that could be useful for me feel free to tell me.

2023.03.20 19:32 WaywardFinn First Attempt at Monster Homebrew, All Feedback Welcome

First Attempt at Monster Homebrew, All Feedback Welcome

A large insect scuttles on the cavern wall, picking at the rock. Its shell is the color of cinders and hot coals, and a faint light glows from its body. Its abdomen is translucent, and glows white hot, as does the stinger at its back. Its mandibles shear odd bits of metal out of the rock, melting them with barely a touch. It glances at you, or rather the gold ring on your finger, and flutters its wings excitedly.
The Furnace Bee is something of an anomaly to the races of the Darklands. No creature is as reviled and adored, sometimes simultaneously, in equal measure as this creature. In 871 The Dwarves of Rukk Bozun Kald drove the creatures to near extinction in their mines. Twenty years later, it saved their industrial sector. The reason for this intense emotion is very simple, this creature refines minerals.
A hive of Furnace Bees largely resembles a typical beehive, if significantly larger. It is abuzz with activity at every hour. The drones leave in swarms, scouring cavern walls and tunnels for any trace of metal, which they consume and melt on the spot. Laden with the stuff, they fly back and deposit it into their metalcombs, sorted by type. It is cooled by wingbeats and stored indefinitely. This would make them incredibly useful but for two factors. One, their internal working requires carbon, which theyre more than happy to extract from their keepers, and two, they prioritize eating refined metals outside of their hive. As soon as a source is found, the hive will release more drones to that spot to find more. If the "spot" is a dwarf hold or other place of living, the inhabitants can look forward to a steady stream of Furnace Bees, tearing metal out wherever they find it and hauling it back to their hive. This will continue until either the entire hive is eradicated or there is not so much as a nail left in the area.
Despite the havoc they can cause, Furnace Bees have been successfully domesticated multiple times. Containment failures can spell disaster, and keeping up with their dietary needs is a constant challenge. However, their almost automatic refining process opens up limitless potential for any keepers able to contain them effectively and resist their aggressive defense of the hives metal stores. Fire Giants, Duergar, Deep Gnomes, even the Drow have domesticated these creatures to varying degrees of success. However in each case, keepers are strictly and constantly reminded, Furnace Bees dont refine metals, they refine minerals. Though quartz and gemstone hives are possible, if much more difficult to maintain, any and all radioactive minerals must be kept away from the hive at all costs.

2023.03.20 19:24 Juelinna Of the cats: Daijin and Sadaijin

Just wanted to share my thoughts on this movie. Of course there are a lot of running themes throughout this movie (closure, relationships, etc), the one that fascinated me the most is the theme that surrounds Daijin and Sadaijin. What do they have to do with the movie besides the yin-yang motif that they bring? I haven't read much about it so far, so I'd like to share mine. Scroll to the bottom for TLDR.
---
The first thing that strikes me about Daijin is that it appears cold to the touch. This is contrasted with Souta being warm to the touch, although Souta had then taken the form of a chair. One might attribute this to simply being a keystone being cold, but I have another theory which I will explore later.
Daijin becomes fascinated with Suzume, and in the process, forces Souta to take Daijin's place in order to be with Suzume. One might think that Daijin likes Suzume for no reason, or because she is a capable girl of closing doors, but I think Suzume possesses a specific quality that Daijin is attracted to. I will explore this later as well.
Daijin is then the name accepted by the general public. Its name means Minister, but Daijin is also a homonym with Rich Person (this was also mentioned in the film: "It does look like a Daijin (rich person)!") I immediately attributed this to the Maneki-Neko, a cat figurine that is said to attract luck and fortune. The Maneki-Neko is usually white, which is also Daijin's colour. While the general public feels lucky to meet Daijin, Daijin (in its white state) seemingly brings nothing but bad luck to Suzume and Souta where the pair always meets Daijin in places with open doors and are unable to catch the said cat. This brought me to my first speculation: is Daijin a Misfortune Deity? Let's keep this thought and move on.
The height of Suzume and Souta's interaction with Daijin is when the Tokyo gate opens, and Daijin insists that it loves Suzume, and Souta therefore has to take its place as the keystone. Souta willingly accepts the role and turns cold like death. After Suzume seals the worm away, she falls to the ground. The unexpected happens: Daijin suddenly turns black and catches Suzume before she falls, preventing her from dying.
Since Daijin catches Suzume intentionally, his black form cannot be related merely to Luck (though there is an element of that, I will expand on it later). It is here that brought me to believe that Daijin is the Deity of Death (in its white form), but even in its heralding of death, there will be a piece of life (in its black form).
After all, thinking back, Suzume had started off the movie by telling Souta that she is not afraid of death. She had never been afraid of dying, and that quality lead Daijin to be enamoured by her. Yet here, and now, she cannot afford to die, because she must save Souta! Believing that Daijin is the source of Souta's "death", coupled with her newfound reason for living, she tells "death" that she hates it, causing Daijin's form to shrivel up and follow Suzume compliantly.
I will skip the first appearance of Sadaijin, because at the time, I didn't realise there was the possibility of another cat. I thought that it was another Deity of Death. But now that we know Sadaijin is the black counterpart to Daijin, you can kind of guess where this will go. I would like to mention on hindsight, part of the reason why Sadaijin left its post is revealed by Souta "One keystone is not enough". But I think that's not the full explanation. If Sadaijin is the counterpart to Daijin, then one keystone might as well be no keystone.
Daijin follows Suzume, and together with her aunt Tamaki and Souta's friend Serizawa Tomoya, the unlikely group head off to Suzume's hometown. The misfortune doesn't end there though: it starts to rain, and the hood of the roof cannot close. Tamaki and Suzume are unable to see eye-to-eye, and the two fight, confessing what they hated about each other, until Tamaki drops to the ground, and Sadaijin makes its first formal appearance. Its black form contrasts the white Daijin.
In that moment, the film leads people to ask: did Sadaijin possess Tamaki? But I don't believe Sadaijin forced Tamaki to say things she never believed. At most, I think Sadaijin caused Tamaki to speak her heart. But I personally believe that the appearance of Sadaijin is metaphorical. At the lowest point of their lives, Tamaki and Suzume suddenly realised that they care for each other. The black meets the white. Could this be where things turn around?
A series of little joys flood the remainder of the journey. A rainbow appears in the sky. Suzume looks at her devastated homeland, but Serizawa who has never known what happened, is amazed by its beauty. The car crashes, but the hood successfully closes. The remainder of the way is far, but a rusty bicycle offers a beacon of hope. Tamaki is tired, but she is happy to finally get the chance to learn about Suzume. The two cats flank them.
Finally at their destination, Daijin leads Suzume to the door she needs to go. Since she has reached the end of her destination, Suzume is ready to face death again, and thanks Daijin, who regains its healthy form. Suzume and the cats leap through the door, and are met with the worm.
Here, Sadaijin the Deity of Life reveals a second form - a roaring white beast. Now that we have in mind that black symbolises life, his white form represents the memories of the people who have lost their lives in the disasters of the earth. Although they are gone, their deaths are not in vain. Fuelled by the memories of the dead, Sadaijin holds the worm back. Meanwhile, Suzume has yet to find Souta, and does not want to die yet, leading Daijin to turn into its black form to once again save Suzume's life.
Upon meeting Souta, Suzume is fully ready to give her life to turn into the keystone. She is willing to die, so that Souta might live. Daijin helps Suzume, and my guess here is that Daijin doesn't mind who takes the place of the keystone. But just as Suzume pulls Souta out, both her and Souta realise that they have a reason to keep on living, and express it aloud.
Daijin accepts that with Suzume wanting to live, she no longer loves "death" in the way she used to, and obediently retakes its place as the keystone. I think, here's where something really amazing takes place: early on in the movie, everyone, from Suzume, to Souta, to the audience, wants nothing more for Daijin to become the keystone again. But at its peak, Suzume cries at Daijin's transformation back into a keystone. I was surprised at how much I was sad to see Daijin go, and I think this is really profound. Even if we know it must happen, it is hard to part with those who have left us.
With Daijin restored, Sadaijin also returns to being a keystone. Souta speaks what the cats represent: "Even if we live side by side with death, we still want to live". Sadaijin and Daijin, life and death together, finally seal the worm.
---
TLDR:
Daijin/white is the Deity of Death (and Misfortune), as represented by:
Sadaijin/black is the Deity of Life (and Joys), as represented by:
Notes:

That took me a long time to write lol. Please let me know if I've missed anything. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Daijin and Sadaijin!

2023.03.20 19:20 Obversa I have a theory as to why dual-wielding isn't more common in the Inheritance Cycle.

The reason is because dual-wielding is not only specifically seen more towards the late medieval period - or the Late Middle Ages - but duel-wielding arose among knights wearing full plate armor. However, as the series does not focus on hand-to-hand combat between knights armed in full plate mail, of course we're going to see much less dual-wielding within the Inheritance Cycle.
When it comes to the Dragon Riders, dual-wielding also appears to have been rare, with only the sword Támerlein - originally forged for the elven Dragon Rider named Arva - specifically mentioned as a weapon designed to be wielded in a way to leave one's other hand free.
Summary from the Inheriwiki:
"[Támerlein] was originally wider than Zar'roc, and clearly made for someone with a different fighting style than Eragon, a style more heavily reliant on cutting and slashing. The end was blunt and rounded, and the handle was large. It was used for one evidently reliant on fighting with two hands [at the same time]."
However, u/ChristopherPaolini also noted that even an elf like Arva would have trouble dual-wielding, especially against a single-wielding opponent:
"[Dual-wielding is] hideously impractical. Even if you have the enhanced speed/strength of an elf, you'll still be at a disadvantage compared to someone with similar abilities who isn't dual-wielding."
Therefore, I would say that Arva more likely used his "free" hand for a shield, not another sword.
To touch upon armor again, Dragon Riders - as they never expected to fight other Dragon Riders, much less in a Dragon War - are rarely, if ever, mentioned or depicted as wearing armor, much less full plate armor. As Riders had no need to wear full plate armor, there was no need for dual-wielding to develop or evolve, as dual-wielding developed specifically in response to full plate armor being used.
Now, assuming that Galbatorix and the Forsworn hadn't completely defeated the Dragon Riders in such a short span of time - and the Dragon Riders had been better able to hold out, albeit in smaller numbers - we may have seen the use of full plate armor, as well as the adoption of dual-wielding.
After all, we see a similar "arms race" with England vs. France during the aptly-named "Hundred Years' War", which lasted about a century, and which saw the development and evolution of full plate armor; and, as a result, more dual-wielding. The length of the war served as a catalyst towards this transition. However, the Dragon War lasted only about 4 years in total (7896 - 7900 AC).
However, there are three problems with this: The use of brightsteel as a preferred metal by the Dragon Riders; its limited quantities; and the ineffectiveness of other metals when compared to brightsteel. Brightsteel armor has been brought up before by fans quite a few times over the years, but the limited - or finite - resource of brightsteel would make creating brightsteel armor difficult, if not impossible. Due to this, Eragon plans to modify pre-existing Riders' swords for future Dragon Riders, especially since he recovered "hundreds of Riders' swords" after Galbatorix's defeat.
Per u/ChristopherPaolini on the composition of brightsteel in a previous answer:
Brightsteel starts as standard iron-nickel of the sort you would find in most meteorites (there might be some cobalt in there, but you get the idea). Cutting and stacking the steel helps purify it during the forging process. Could be done with magic, but wouldn't really be any easier.
Later, the spells that are used during the heat treating process (heating, quenching, and tempering) convert the steel to what is known as a metallic glass/amorphous metal.
See here for some fascinating info on metallic glass: https://engineering.jhu.edu/materials/research-projects/metallic-glasses/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amorphous_metal
In addition, the brighsteel is laced with quite a bit of energy and spells, which help to give it its remarkable properties.
Now, one metal that I could say would make a good armor for Dragon Riders is titanium. It's as strong as steel, but 45% lighter; and twice as strong as aluminum, but only 60% heavier. However, in the real world, titanium wasn't discovered until 1791, well after the Middle Ages. Meanwhile, the world of the Inheritance Cycle is clearly medieval in terms of its period and level of technological advancement.

2023.03.20 19:10 Neither_Tomorrow_238 The Tale Of The Cursed Fortress

It all started when I embarked on a seemingly peaceful site near a river and some mountains. I named my fortress Glitteringrock, hoping to find some precious metals and gems underground. I had seven brave dwarves with me: two miners, one woodcutter, one carpenter, one mason, one brewefarmer, and one leadebrokebookkeeper. They seemed happy enough as they set up their initial camp and started digging into the mountain.

Things went well for the first year. We managed to build a basic farm, a still, a kitchen, some workshops, and some bedrooms. We also found some iron ore and coal veins, which promised future wealth and weapons. We traded with some friendly elves and humans who visited us occasionally. We even had some migrants join us, bringing our population up to 15.

But then things took a turn for the worse.

One day, as I was checking on my miners' progress, I noticed something strange on the map. There was a red X near the edge of the screen. I zoomed in to see what it was. It was a corpse. A human corpse.

I checked its description and saw that it had been killed by an unknown creature. It had multiple bite wounds on its body and its head was missing. I wondered what kind of beast could do such damage.

I didn't have to wonder for long.

Soon after discovering the corpse, I got an announcement that something had come: A vile force of darkness!

I paused the game and looked at the units list. There were dozens of goblins outside my fortress gate. They were armed with swords, spears, bows, crossbows, axes, maces... you name it. They also had trolls with them: huge hairy monsters that could smash walls and doors with ease.

I realized that I was under siege.

I quickly ordered my dwarves to pull up the drawbridge and lock themselves inside. I hoped that they could hold out until help arrived or until the goblins got bored and left.

But then I saw something else on the units list: A forgotten beast!

A forgotten beast is a randomly generated monster that can appear from deep underground or from hidden caverns. They are usually very powerful and very dangerous. They can have any combination of features: wings, horns, claws,
scales... you name it.

The forgotten beast that appeared in my fortress was named Zasit Thikutumidu Ushrir Ustuth Eribthos Nish Ushrir Ustuth Eribthos Nish (yes,
that's its full name). It was described as "a gigantic eyeless humanoid composed of vomit". It had deadly spittle that could cause infections
and rotting flesh.

It emerged from an unexplored tunnel near my mineshaft and started rampaging through my fortress.

It killed several dwarves before they could react or run away. It destroyed workshops,
furniture,
and walls with its massive fists.
It sprayed its vile spittle everywhere,
causing more death
and decay.
It seemed unstoppable.


I tried to fight back with whatever weapons
and traps
I had available,
but it was futile.
My dwarves were either too scared
or too sick
to put up much resistance.
Some even went insane
and started attacking each other
or themselves.
The fortress descended into chaos
and horror.


Meanwhile,
the goblins outside were still waiting for their chance to attack.
They occasionally shot arrows
or bolts
at any dwarf who ventured near a window
or an opening.
They also tried to set fire to my wooden structures
with flaming arrows
or torches.
They seemed determined to finish me off.


I realized that there was no hope for survival.
My fortress was doomed.


But then something unexpected happened.


The forgotten beast suddenly stopped its rampage
and turned towards the entrance of my fortress.
It seemed to sense something outside.
Something more interesting than killing dwarves.


It smashed through the drawbridge
and charged at the goblin army.


What followed was an epic battle between two evil forces:
the vomit monster versus the green horde.

2023.03.20 19:04 everythinghappensto sanity checking the cost/range/value proposition of used options (US)

edit to add even shorter version: Besides range, tech toys, motor HP, and looks, what are the downsides to a 2017 30kWh Leaf vs a 2020 model for short commutes and local trips?
TLDR: It seems like a 2016/2017 30kWh Leaf would meet my "second car" needs nearly as well as a 2020 40kWh model, at a savings of $5k or more, with tradeoffs of less range / more frequent charging, and a more worn-down vehicle (routine wear + chance of surprise problems) (plus driving an uglier car, IMO). I'm in eastern MA and drive up to 25 miles most days, 75 semi-regularly. Anything I'm not considering?
Long-winded version...
I need/want to replace my 20-year-old commuter "second" car in the next year or so, and my 15-year-old CR-V "faimly hauler" in a similar timeframe. I'm in eastern Massachusetts. I'd like to spend less on my commuter so I can spend more on the family car.
While a Bolt with full tax incentive would be a great fit for me (with the reduction in worries that come with a new car), I assume the tax rebate will get cut in half this month (March 2023), so I'm taking a serious look at used Leafs for my secondary car. My commute is about 20 miles round trip most days, and I might do 50-75 mile round trips some weekends. I'm not sure if this would be a long-term local use car, or a gap-filler to reach a point in a few years where cars like the Equinox EV are readily available at a nice price point and get the full tax credit.
A nearby dealer has a 2020 SV with about 12k miles for $21k, and the used EV credit would bring it down to $17k. It looks to be in very good shape and seemed good in a test drive. From my casual research at online car sellers, edmunds-dot-com type aggregators, FB Marketplace, etc., that's a fair price. It would be a low-worries car that easily covers my local driving needs. I wouldn't consider it for the 300-400 mile trips we make a few times a year unless I was desperate (whereas I might try the 300 mile trip in a Bolt, at least once).
But as I picture myself actually buying it, it seems like overkill for my needs. The SV Tech Package (intelligent cruise control, ProPilot driving assistant, nav) is basically wasted on my limited usage and the Charge Package might come in handy only a few times (if ever) over the next several years. The All Weather package (heated seats, heat pump) is valuable, though.
So now I'm taking a closer look at 2016 SV/SL or 2017 models, with the 30kWh batteries and at least the Weather package, preferably 40-60k miles max and 10+ bars for SOH. I'm seeing these from dealer for roughly $13-16k; assuming they're eligible for the used tax credit that ends up at effectively $9-12k. (not seeing any 2016/2017 model personal sales listed in my area)
In my mind, the ~90-mile fair-weather range (perhaps down to 60 miles in the winter?) is almost as useful to me as the newer Leafs' longer range. It just means I'll be charging every 1-2 days rather than every 3-4 days... right? Should I expect a massive difference beyond wear and tear, e.g. reliability / chances of big problems, for the non-battery parts of the car, for 2017 vs 2020?
I suspect it's pretty much a personal values judgement call, but if you made it this far, do you see any fatal flaws or general problems in my logic?
edit to add: ... this assumes I like the performance and handling of the older models well enough—really need to do a test drive soon!

How To Embrace Your Body Odor - Selling Your Scents

https://preview.redd.it/86f7jspb0coa1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=644f0585bd3ff349a13c71c50cc91114ae287504

Selling your Scents

Have you ordered very expensive perfume online without knowing how it smells? Did you eagerly anticipate its arrival and suddenly regret that purchase upon smelling it? Most of you would say to yourself, I would never do that, I would need to smell that perfume first! Imagine you are a buyer on ATW, and realize how they may purchase items like panties or shoes.
As a seller, you are not going to be everyone's type just because you take pretty photos in your items. You must understand your products and market to individual buyers just like any other items in a store. You are selling a scent to someone who is unable to smell you prior to purchasing.
Look at your last panty listing, read the details you provided in the description and the keywords used for search, did you tell the buyers how you smell? The listings lately that I have seen, from the newest sellers especially, do not and it leads to a seller becoming frustrated when items do not sell. Let's dive into what you need to know as a seller.

Knowing Your Type - Panties

You fit into a smaller pool of sellers in the used panty market of All Things Worn, and you probably never realized it. You need to spend time figuring out where you fit in this market, and which buyers to focus your marketing efforts.
After a long day in panties, study them. What scent did you leave on them after a long work day? It may seem silly, but it is not! You need to get your nose in there! Are you Earthy or a Mineral scent? Lemon tartness? Or just Fishy? This may seem like a simple answer, but it is not.
You are also on a cycle that changes every day as you approach ovulation and your period. You should keep track of your scents daily as you go through a monthly cycle, and again for the following month to see if it is consistent. Install a free app like Flo to track what day of your cycle you are on, as this also can help you market to buyers who prefer a woman to wear during her fertile dates. Did you know there were those specific buyers on here? Some like panties worn at different times of the cycle, and learning where you are can help you close that sale.
You may also feel like you are a mix of scents, and that is common as well. You should sniff throughout your day and see if after a short time, does the scent change? If you start off each morning earthy and then by the afternoon you notice an additional scent of nutty, this is common but should be noted. There is a specific buyer group that love the nutty scent, but not when it moves to mineral or metallic. If you found a buyer with this attraction, you would honestly want to stop wearing it at a certain point instead of wearing a full 24 hours. At this point, I can understand the confusion that you would not simply just want to sell panties with as long of wear as possible, and it is true!
You are creating a product for a specific buyer and not all sales are based on the heaviest applied scent possible. After a couple of days, the scent on a panty can turn foul and become unappealing to some buyers, while others crave that exact odor.
It is like drinking wine, a sommelier has specific desires to their palate, and as such, a panty buyer would stop a sale at less than 24 hours to achieve that specific scent. Continue to sniff and understand your scents over days to make sure you are advertising correctly, as your buyers will leave a review on your scents for others to read. This is your best marketing there is, word of mouth, and if you sell honestly, your reviews will bring you lots of future business.
I will also be sure to mention something most sellers do not ask their buyers and it is critical you do so, and that is their desired "Back Scents" or simply, ass smells. You will be wearing a thong for 3 days, and your buyer wants you to get them extra messy. Do you know what they mean by that? Do you ask for clarification?
After the sale is made, it is okay to then go over the details to make sure you both understand each other and that the buyer gets exactly what they are looking for with your panty. If they want light back scents, you can wear half a panty liner to protect that area from your panty wear until the final day. If they want heavy all around scents, offering a no-wipe day for extra fee may be what the buyer is looking for, but did not realize it at the initial time of sale. Not communicating this critical area can quickly ruin a buyer's experience, and turn them off from buying from you or anyone again in the future.
Before we move on from used panties, it is also good to note the markings left behind after certain periods of time, and note at what time of the month you are currently. This will help you sell to those who wish for heavy markings and this is usually achieved during the days prior to ovulation, statistically, however, everybody is different and you may leave the heaviest marks after your period.

Know Your Buyers - Feet

A lot of sellers join ATW and only market their physical products to foot buyers. It can be a very rewarding business and you can sell many items if you understand who will be shopping for your items. You have feet, and buyers want socks so you will do well, right? Wrong. This will lead to frustration as you may get lucky and sell a couple of pairs, but long term you will not find the success that can happen if you take the time to understand your market.
Foot buyers are each looking for a specific outcome with your item, being a scent, dirt markings or shape after wear. Most are a combination of these characteristics. You should ask desired outcome questions when a buyer reaches out to you for an item in your listings to ensure they will be happy with their purchase and hopefully a repeat buyer from you.
You may get a random question while here on ATW: "Are you a Frito?" And I honestly wish I could answer yes! The corn chip scent is very desired among the foot buyer community. As a seller, you should understand that if you are not a corn chip scent foot seller that you should never pretend to be in order to get a sale.
That is what causes buyers to leave ATW in frustration with scammers, and that is what you are if you falsify a scent. I suggest getting to know fellow sellers in your country and finding matches for the other scents that you can recommend when you are approached by a buyer looking for a scent you do not have. Other sellers then also will do the same with you and your scents.
The four main scents for feet are: corn chip, vinegary, yeasty, or cheese. This is caused by the types of bacteria that live on your feet, and it does not mean you fit into only one of these categories. You can also have variations of the scents, parmesan cheese for instance.
You can also have a simply sweaty scent, which would be salty. I am a vinegar chip scent. I can not say it is a frito, but there is a Salt and Vinegar Chip scent to it. I recommend sniffing in all different materials of sock and shoe, as your sweat may react differently to each material. In nylons, scents are tangy at times.
Cotton socks may have a more mild scent after a day, then become a warmer but very strong scent after three days. It is also good to know that the pad of your foot, right behind your toes, seems to smell the strongest. When wearing some items, you can rotate to cover more area with your scent, if you would like it over more of the item instead of focusing on the strongest scent.

It's In the Details

Please also take note of how your scents change over time once they are removed. I think this is a huge miss if you are not aware and your buyers will suffer if you do not pay attention. How long do your nylons hold scent after they are removed? It is very hard to keep scent on some items, do you know how far your item will be traveling? If it is going to be travelling internationally, the shipping time will be longer due to customs and Covid protocols.
The last package I sent to Australia from the US was 6 weeks! Buyers should also understand you are setting an unrealistic expectation of a scent to last on an item for a long time if you are not paying for extra days to lock in a scent that will be travelling a long distance.
Sellers, what do you do when you need to shower? Airing out of an item for even a short period of time can ruin your time invested in your wear. I recommend keeping some baggies in the bathroom for when you do need to shower during a wear, as you risk diminishing the odor quickly. Do you store your items in a baggie as soon as they are removed? Or do you vacuum seal?
Please use caution with how you store while awaiting for shipping as well, as vacuum sealers are designed to literally remove all air (scent) from the item in the bag. I have learned this the hard way, and please test your methods of sealing before getting too many orders with one method. Ask for feedback on the scent, and ask them to be honest! You may have different experiences with your vacuum sealer and I strongly encourage every seller to test their methods, whichever they use.

Final Thoughts

Being honest to a buyer about how long you need to wear an item for the desired scent is also very important and should not just be used to gain additional funds. If your buyer is looking for a heavy fish aroma on a bodysuit, but you are not at that scent until your third day of wear, you should inform your seller that a short wear would not give that effect. Buyers should understand that not all scents are a 24-hour deal, and with some socks, you may not even smell anything if they were a short wear. Invest in the items you desire, and be honest with the outcome if you were expecting a lot with a little budget.
Also, it is very important to not only list your scents in your bio but on each and every item and in the keywords, separated by a space and a comma, under your listings. Your buyers are not always on the dash but are using the search bar to find that exact scent. It may feel redundant to you, but if your buyer is looking for boyshorts and you have your scents on your thongs only, they will not find you. It is a critical step to making the selling experience profitable for you.
Overall, you should love your scents and take pride in them. As someone who was extremely self-conscious about all my scents for decades, this place has made me realize there are people out there who will pay to sniff them, and I am happy to provide them with those items. I now proudly list my scents, and discuss them with buyers, and you should too!

2023.03.20 18:59 BlackArmourPaisan Post Vacation weight loss help

So after a nearly 80lb cutting fitness journey I hit an all time low of 189 and was definitely very lean (somewhere between 10 and 15 body fat) and in the best shape of my life. With stress from school and other stuff going on I plateaued there (wanted to hit 185), but excepted it and was happy moving in to maingaining.
Gained about 3 lbs from just eating more carbs and feeling better (193ish) and then went on a spring break trip out to LA. After a very stressful sleep deprived midterms week I binged all week. I walked a lot and did one workout there but otherwise it was a lot of binge eating. I didn’t track so idk how much I ate but it wasn’t pretty.
Long story short I came back and weighed in at 200lbs (7lb gain from week prior). Also my physique is noticeably different (abs almost gone and less definition)
I’ve hopped back on the wagon and am in day 3 of my old cutting routine. Any tips on how to loose the weight quickly? Also how much could be fat vs water?
Thanks in advance!

2023.03.20 18:58 CreativeParsley7149 First attempt at actual writing. Here goes nothin'.

For all it's worth.

P.S. I'm not that good at writing and this is my attempt. Sorry if it's bad.
“5 Minutes to departure, all personnel stand ready” a tired voice echoed over the carrier's intercom. The greener men stood nervously. Clutching their helmets, checking and rechecking if their Lasguns were hooked up to the battery packs correctly. Some of them tried to ease the tension by telling jokes. It didn't work.I wasn't entirely green. I had seen some combat before. It was brief, long range. One dead, two wounded. At the time that had been the only death I had seen. It was my sergeant. one second he was barking orders, the next a beam hit him straight through the eye. Then he fell limp, Tumbling down the sand dune we had been taking cover behind. Just before I got to thinking about his face however.
“1 minute to departure, Infantry mount up, all crews prepare for take off”
The infantry all piled into the drop pods along with the ground drones. They were like big metal boxes carried underneath the small gunships that were to act as our air support. Once we'd finished climbing inside the large steel blast door sealed itself behind us. Dim red lights switched on with a dull hum. “Coms check, sound off.” One of the Lieutenants said over radio as we lifted off. I think he was trying to make us focus on something else. Make us not think about the orbital gunfire that was about to start rocking the pod like a beer can.We finished sounding off and by then we were entering the planet's atmosphere. Now we could hear the explosions all around us. “60 seconds, get ready!” one of the sergeants shouted “30 seconds!” He said again. Then we felt the pod hit the ground with a great thud. And the door opened wide.
The second it opened Lasgun fire poured into the pod, their bright red continuous beams lighting up the surrounding hills in the early morning light. There were about a hundred men in that pod, within seconds 50 were dead. I sprinted forward out of the pod. I knew I was dead if I stayed. I dove down. Practically kissing the dirt. My bulky lasgun slamming into the ground. I was surrounded by corpses. There was no blood. Lasguns never left blood. Instead it was just hundreds of dead limp bodies. Smoking, sizzling burns around their wounds. Lifeless gaping faces staring back at me. Just like the Sergeant's.
I looked up to see a crowd of men run out of a burning pod. Flailing and screaming for help. They weren't being shot. They was just letting them burn. Bastards. I thought. I was afraid but now I was angry. I grabbed my lasgun, crawling over to a nearby burning vehicle for cover. Standing up to shoulder it. I aimed at the first man I saw and fired. The beam shot out. Hitting him right in the chest. He fell down limp. I backed up hiding behind cover. I looked up to watch as a gunship strafed the enemy with it's auto cannons and missiles before flying away. Then the Ground Drones advanced firing everything they had. The enemy fell back, gunned down as they ran. I took the opportunity to fire off a few more shots. I don't remember how many I got. Six, seven? Maybe I didn't hit one. It doesn't matter.
When the shooting had died down I walk around trying to find anyone else who had survived. I couldn't find anyone from my unit. So, I decided to stick with the first company I found. They were all older guys. Veterans. Then there was me barely into my twenties. One of them turned to me. “You ok buddy?” He said in an understanding voice. “Uh...yeah..” I replied meekly. “Don't worry. You'll get used to it.” He said “At least you survived landing, that's a good start!” He slung his lasgun over his shoulder. He was right. At least I survived. I followed behind him. Along with the rest of the company.
At least I survived the landing. For all its worth.

2023.03.20 18:29 flyinghorseduck 120 Types of Arrows


This arrow is different to others you have used and seems special somehow. Roll a d120 to find out what it does!

Roll Result
1 Arrow of Healing - Deals 1d4 damage, heals 1d8 hp.
2 Arrow of Returning - After firing and striking something, the arrow will vanish in a puff of smoke and return to your quiver.
3 Choke Arrow - When the arrow makes contact with an object, it explodes into a cloud of noxious fumes in a sphere with a radius of 5 feet. Those inside choke as if you had casted the Stinking Cloud spell with DC 12.
4 Arrow of Missile Attraction - on a hit, the target becomes missile attractive. Any missile / projectile that passes within 20ft of the victim has a 2 in 6 chance of being redirected towards the victim.
5 Superior Smoke Arrow - Creates a Fog Cloud after 2 turns.
6 Moss Arrow - When this arrow is fired at a surface, creeping moss rapidly spreads to a circle with radius ten feet around the point of contact. Walking or climbing on the moss grants advantage on stealth checks to remain silent.
7 Sleep Arrow - using sleep powder, it bursts on impacts causing one creature hit to make a con save or fall asleep. No additional damage.
8 Spoil Arrow - on hit you have a horrible taste in your mouth that distracts you from whatever else you were doing to go seek water.
9 Rose Thorn Arrow - on hit extra 1d4 piercing from thorns and target must make a DC 15 STR or DEX save or be ensnared for 1d4 rounds (can attempt to Str / dex to get free each round), 1d4 piercing damage each round the ensnared creature moves.
10 Navigators Shot - upon firing upwards, the arrow travels 80ft upwards before going 50ft towards a goal (find a target or location) the archer is currently seeking. The magic loses effect if it impacts anything before the ascent.
11 Pointy Twig - sold by a goblin traveling merchant, he swears it's an arrow of never-missing. It's actually just a pointy twig.
12 Vampire Teeth Arrow - While not actual vampire teeth, they look pretty close. These arrows deal necrotic damage instead of piercing. The teeth may be recovered after battle to gain the damage dealt with them as healing or temporary HP.
13 Gossip Arrow - on a hit, the archer discovers one mundane secret about the target. (The bandit loves knitting kinda secret) this secret is broadcasted in a 30ft radius by an ethereal voice.
14 Flightstopper Arrow - A creature that is flying or attempting to fly must make a constitution save before using its movement. On failure, it cannot gain altitude and instead drops 60 feet. A flying creature does not take fall damage if it is forced from the sky by the flightstopper arrow. The throw is repeated every time the flying creature tries to use its movement. The effect lasts one minute or until the arrow is removed, whichever comes sooner.
15 Barbed Arrow - This cruelly barbed arrow does normal damage going in, and 1D6+2 damage coming out. If carefully removed (takes 1D6+1 rounds, DEX check at DC 15), no damage; half damage if you fail the roll. If left in, 1 damage per round spent doing anything but remaining carefully still.
16 Arrow of Teleportation - user is teleported to the impact site of the arrow.
17 Arrow of Delay - when fired the arrow freezes in place mid-air, thawing one round later and targeting the original targeted location. In addition to normal damage, on a hit the target is frozen in time for one round, unable to take any actions.
18 Curved Arrow - An arrow with a slight curve in it, used to hit targets behind cover.
19 Haunted Skull-Dread Arrow - Does regular damage. If arrow isn't pulled out by before 3 turns are over, the creature gains either a minor curse from a d100 table, or a disease from a d100 table. If it is a critical hit, then on the first turn the effect activates.
20 Shock Arrow - A thundergem is sharpened into a point as this arrow's head. Upon a hit the brittle gem shatters, releasing an additional 1d8 lightning damage in a 10' radius.
21 Grease Arrow - An alchemist's vial of grease replaces the arrowhead and spreads grease on whatever surface it strikes.
22 Babel Arrow - on hit, this arrow makes you forget the languages you speak and speak languages you didn't beforehand for 1d4 hours.

25 Flare Arrow - creates a flare like projectile. If shot skyward can be seen up to one mile away. Only does 1d4 additional fire damage.
26 Arrow of Ricochet - Considers full cover to be half cover.
27 Light Arrow - These arrows deal radiant damage instead of piercing. They appear to be made out of pure light while emitting none at the same time. They leave a streak in the air, marking their path for up to an hour.
28 Short Jump Arrow - Arrow range is only 30 ft but allows you to teleport to anywhere within the range that it lands.
29 Arrow of Whooshing - makes a sound like someone making the sound of an arrow flying through the air as it flies through the air.
30 Foecrusher Arrow - An arrow with a very large head that is disproportionate to the rest of the arrow’s body, that somehow weighs the same as a normal arrowhead. Upon being fired, the arrow begins to rapidly grow in size over the course of its flight. For every 10 feet the arrow moves, the arrow’s damage increases by 1d6 piercing damage. If the arrow travels at least 100 feet, every creature within a 5 foot radius of the arrows point of impact must make a DC 18 Dexterity saving throw. A creature takes the arrows full damage as bludgeoning damage on a failed save, and half as much damage on a successful save. The damage is done instead of the arrows single target damage, not in addition to it. The radius of the arrows point of impact increases by 5 feet for every additional 100 feet the arrow travels after the initial 100 feet.
31 Whistling arrow - A non-magical arrow with a wiffle ball-like attachment affixed to the shaft behind the point. It makes a shill whistling sound as it travels through the air. Inexpensive.

33 Drow Ascension Arrow - Touching these arrows bathes the shooter or anything it hits in shadow for 1 hour.
34 Zipper Arrow - Does regular damage, but the when the arrow is ripped out by a PC, it does 4d4 damage. To rip the Arrow out, a PC needs a prerequisite strength of 15. The actual arrow has many small spikes and sharp edges on it, and near the base of the arrow is a large pull handle.
35 Scrying Arrow - It takes a moment to prep the scrying arrow. You look into the foggy glass and your non dominant eye loses sight for a second before reforming inside the glassy bulb. This effect lasts for a minute. This arrow can then be shot.
36 Arrow of Anti-Magic - Arrow dispels all magic spells and effects within 10ft of it's impact.
37 Stalker Arrow - upon impact, this arrow lodges a small magical tracker in its target. The archer now knows the location of the target for 24 hours.

39 Cannon Arrow - An arrow seemingly made entirely out of metal that is still light enough to be used, faintly glowing runic symbols cover every surface. Upon being fired, the arrow transforms into a cannonball that magically continues following the arrows flight path. A creature that is hit with the cannonball takes 8d10 bludgeoning damage and must succeed on a DC 22 Strength saving throw or be knocked prone.
40 Arrow of Illusion - arrow creates an illusion of the archer at the impact site.
41 Injection Arrow - An arrow with a needle on the tip used to inject enemies with poisons and other alchemical brews.
42 Suckerpunch Arrow - Arrows that have a light metal ball instead of a pointed head. Better for knocking out targets with a shot to the head or knocking the wind out of them with a shot to the gut. Incredibly nonlethal.
43 Whisper Arrow - if a message is whispered to the arrow before firing it, a target hit by the arrow will hear the whispered message.
44 Net Arrow - The head of this arrow is actually a small clay pot containing a spring-loaded silk net, on a hit, the target makes a DEX save (DC 13) against being restrained. on it's turn, the target can make a STR check to break free (DC 16).

2023.03.20 18:17 TNAEWLF Need Reassurance and potentially advice

So in the space of 3 months i’ve gone from one of the most confident people you’d ever Meet into a shell of myself due to health anxiety -
I was having quite bad headaches so the doctor after saying Tension headaches, advised it may be sinusitis
I have stopped and started antibiotics (had two/3 days) then stopped 3 times over the last few months due to then worrying about various things however I have Sinus pains and reoccurring Sinus/Ear symptoms that keep coming back - i’m feeling Tired all the time and just am feeling worse and worse
My worry has always been what if its not a bacterial infection vs if it is
I guess I just want to see if its worth letting my body try to fight this off despite how ill I’m feeling or if I should do a full dose of the Doxycycline I have been given - I just worry about the damage I may already have done to my body and if my body even needs the antibiotics
Its so hard when you keep feeling more ill everyday but you don’t know the right path to go down

[15 min read] The Hunt for Red Corona - The Russian Flu of 1890 was likely a COVID 1.0!
Hello and welcome back to SAR! Much like the groundhog poking its head out of its burrough, the world is starting to wake up from the dark cloud that was COVID-19. Now this isn’t to say that COVID is gone, SARS and MERS from earlier in this century prove that the Corona Virus is a fact of our lives, but I do think that the worst is over. BUT before people start to click off this post because I dare to say the C-word, today I want to talk about an epidemic that has fallen to the wayside of history: the 1889-1890 Pandemic. Also called the Asiatic Flu or the Russian Flu this was a respiratory viral pandemic that struck the Russian Empire before being transported globally via newly established railroads and steamships. Despite being the first true global pandemic, we don’t really remember this blip of history and the question is: why? Well today we shall explore this forgotten disease and answer the question that wasn’t in your mind at all, there is a COVID-OC43?

Exit, Pursued by a Bear

+2 extra credit points for anyone who knows what this section title references. Before we can talk about the pandemic we have to talk about what was going on in 1890. At this point in time the world was engrossed in what is considered the second Industrial Revolution, also called the Technological Revolution, this period began in 1870 due to the discovery of great synergies. Firstly, the invention of the Blast Furnace by Scottish James Neilson allowed for iron to be heated at higher temps and being tempered with coal in a more efficient manner thus leading to an increased production of Steel. The use and manipulation of Steel cannot be understated—cheap Steel allowed for building larger bridges and skyscrapers, opened up the agricultural sector by providing more robust steam-driven farm equipment to feed the burgeoning industrial working class, built the next standard for war equipment, and most importantly for our story, laid the foundation of rail and steamship transport. The use of rail cannot be understated either: a railway could turn the week long trip from Scotland highlands to London into a day affair (albeit a long one). This ability to transport people or cargo in a day when it would take upwards of a week at times is what changed the idea of distance and made the world much much smaller. Afterall, nowadays if it takes 6 hours to drive somewhere far away we think what a long trip, while in 1810 a 6 hour trip might have been just to get to the next village over.

  • We call this temporal shortening of distance Globalization and the end of the 19th century represented the first hard step in that effort. Looking at the graph we can see that over the 60 years that rail development took off, rail development was the driving force behind Globalization. A quick look at the rail maps of the German Empire in 1840 vs 1880 shows that having a rail line close to your city or port was crucial for the economic (and defense) of the country. Russia…is a different story or rather an even bigger story. Much bigger.

  • If you are unaware the Russian Empire was HUGE; at its peak it covered 22.8 MILLION square miles and is the third largest empire in history (after the British Empire and the Mongol Empire). For much of its history, upwards of 80% of the population of Russia lived west of the Ural Mountains in what is called European Russia. But with that area of Russia being occupied densely for thousands of years, most of the natural resources were extracted from Siberia while farming was extracted from the Chernozem region (modern day Ukraine and Kazakhstan). So in order for food or raw materials to be shipped from the outer edges of the empire into the heartland, it would have to cover upwards of one thousand kilometers. Before rail, this was a 2 week journey and all the while you are racing against the clock so the food doesn’t spoil before it gets to the markets in the middle of St. Petersburg.
    • Up until the creation of the railroad, like most civilizations, trade was done via rivers and luckily the Volga River runs north-south straight through the middle of European Russia. Despite this centrally located river traversing the upper portions of the river were frozen for 6-7 months per year making it basically useless for transferring cargo. Peter the Great built the Vyshnii Volochek System, an extensive canal system, that linked the newly created St. Petersburg with the old capital of Moscow in 1709. Although the canals improved travel it still took 3 months to travel from Moscow and St. Petersburg. To go from Astrakhan on the Black Sea up to St. Petersburg (traversing the entire length of European Russia) was a notable 2 year trip. One way.
    • Well why not roads? Well Russia at the time was known for very wet soils that made roads extremely muddy and dangerous. In fact, the best time to traverse by road was during the winter when the mud was frozen but this added the danger of trying to transport people and animals in the sub-zero temperatures. Alexander I laid the first real roads in 1817 between Moscow and St. Petersburg which was finished in 1834. If weather held, a small cart could make the trip between the two cities in 10 days but the road was small and could only really allow for small non bulky goods to be moved. The true time was closer to 70 days. In response to this Nicholas I founded a committee to study plans for road development in 1833 that would be studied and funded by central, provincial, and local authorities so all roads in Russia were improved slowly but surely. Despite the good intention, the plan failed due to a lack of funds, engineers, and labor.
  • Despite the problems with river and road transport, Russian leaders were hesitant to embrace the railroad. Minister of Finance Count Kankrin and Minister of Ways and Communication Count K F Toll believed that money should be spent improving the agricultural sector rather than building these large and expensive machines and rail systems (completely looking over the fact that there was plenty of food it just couldn’t be transported quick enough). The first railroad would then be privately sponsored for mining and would instantly prove their usefulness over horse and cart. In just 15 years the cost of the railroad would be paid for. In response to this the Russian Government believed that private industry should take the financial risk rather than embracing the technology.
  • On January 6, 1835 Austrian engineer Franz Anton von Gerstner sent a letter to Nicholas I and proposed an extensive Russian railway system. Von Gerstner was probably the most qualified person in Europe due to being the first person to build a railway on continental Europe (Danube-Moldavia line) and he provided statistics about the usefulness of rail. Probably the most important of which was the English’s ability to suppress Irish disorder quickly with easy troop movements. The first line to be completed was between Moscow and Tsarskoe Selo in 1836, with a new St. Petersburg-Moscow line in 1851. With great attribution to the Crimean War (1853-1856), the total amount of rail would increase from 5000km in 1860 to over 53,200km in 1899.

  • Probably most important among these railways was the Trans-Siberian Railway started by Tsar Nicholas II in 1891. Starting in Moscow in the West, this railroad would stretch 9,289km (5,772mi) to its terminus at Vladivostok in the East. To put this in perspective,if you were standing in San Francisco and boarded a train, the final destination would be Spain, yeah you’d go over the Atlantic Ocean. That’s how long this thing is! Despite being the largest province in the country, Siberia represented the least developed part of the country mostly due to its vastness and inability to traverse laterally. Several rivers flow through the region but are untraversable except for 5 months of the year due to freezing over. Walking the distance could take upwards of a year but once the railway was completed it took a mere 7 days. That’s nuts!

Wow you really love trains don't you?

Well… not really i'm pretty indifferent to them but they are fairly important to the beginning of our story! Close your eyes and imagine it is 1889 in the city of Bukhara in modern day Uzbekistan. Bukhara is an ancient city, probably founded sometime in the 6th century BC, the Bukhara region was a regional capital for the Persian Empire when it reigned in this area. Bukhara remained a servant to the dominant empire of the region for the majority of its history and following the invasion of Russia into Iran in 1804, Bukhara once again shifted hands into the Russian Empire. By May 1889 the city was like any other bustling regional power in the late 19th century: merchants hustled their products to passerbys, children played in the street kicking an air filled sheep’s bladder, and doctors made house calls. One doctor, Oskar Heyfelder, was working one warm May day going from house to house when he encountered a sickly old matron of a large family. She was dying—a respiratory influenza had taken hold of her and she was quickly fading. The doctor stood over the old woman with his hat in his hand and recommend opium and a priest. There was nothing more he could do.

  • Little did Heyfelder know but he had just encountered one of the first people to be infected in the 1889 pandemic and the disease would spread quickly via—you guessed it—railroad. See back in 1879 a new Trans-Caspian Railway was built along an old Silk Road corridor which would have bypassed Bukhara entirely. That is if it wasn’t for the last Emir of Bukhara Muhammad Alim Khan (1880-1944) who was unhappy with the nearest station being dozens of miles away in Kagan so he built a private spur to Bukhara itself. With the rail connection established the disease spread quickly up the railway into Russia and then exported to the rest of the world over weeks. I found a great map from a 1892 book published on the Russian Flu that shows the spread of disease by coloring the map. [In case it's hard to read, go to the link and then page 218 of the pdf].

The Butler Weekly Times, Butler MO, Jan 1 1890
  • From the first cases reported in Bukhara, Russian Flu would travel up to Tomks in Western Siberia, Ufa (100 km east of Moscow), Kazan (700 km east of Moscow), Ukraine, and Novgorod (near St. Petersburg) by October of 1889. By November Moscow was hit with 20,000 cases alone which crippled the growing worker’s population and grinded production to a halt. Somewhere between 25-50% of soldiers and students were taken ill which added an extra burden on families. Mid-November saw 180,000 of the one million citizens of St. Petersburg infected. The bread-basket of the Russian Empire was struck next when Kiev and the rest of Ukraine fell to the disease although luckily it hit after the Autumn harvest had already come in.
  • Once established in Russian the disease was able to spread out of the motherland to other regions. Via St. Petersburg the infection hopped aboard Baltic ships and was exported to Finland, Sweden, Germany, and Denmark. In Sweden up to 60% of the population would be infected within 2 months of the Flu landing. As a major trading hub, Posen had an extensive rail network that allowed for the Flu to move throughout Germany infecting half of the 1.5 million residents of Berlin. Vienna and Rome got it by early December; Paris by Christmas; Spain in January where up to 300 people died a day in Madrid alone. London, Birmingham, Glasgow, and Dublin took a punch by Christmas as well.

  • Remember that this is the age of small Earth where globalization has made a trip across the Atlantic as short as 7 days. Russian Flu entered Boston and New York City on December 18th, 1889 before being sent West towards Chicago and San Francisco (who would particularly be hit bad). Once in the United States it would spread north to Montreal and south to Mexico and the rest of South America. By February the disease reached East via the Dutch trading companies and spread liberally among the South East Asian population. Japan, Australia, and New Zealand all caught it in April; China in May.

The Deadly Disease Wasn’t That Deadly

Now if it feels like I’m leaving something important out, that's because I am. Usually when you talk about pandemics we talk about how quickly it spread and then the death toll. All told, the pandemic killed about 1 million people worldwide—now don’t get me wrong this is an enormous loss of life and its unfortunate that these people died but in the grand scheme of things it just wasn’t that deadly. During this same period, a global Cholera pandemic was going on which killed at least 4 million people, Russian Typhus Epidemic in 1919 killed 3 million, and in 1918 the Spanish Flu would devastate the globe with somewhere between 17 and 100 million people dead. That being said, some important people did catch the disease: future King Edward VII of England nearly died before his mother, Queen Victoria, left the throne, although many suspect that his catching this disease ultimately led to his death in 1910. His son Prince Albert Victor, the grandson of Queen Victoria and 2nd in line for the throne, caught it in January of 1892 and died at the age of 28 making way for Queen Elizabeth II to eventually be crowned. Augusta, Queen Empress consort to Emperor Wilhelm I of Germany fell ill in 1890 and died within 4 months. Alexander III of Russia managed to just survive the condition which prompted him to make major public health changes in St. Petersburg. I could go on.

  • So what even happened then? It would start with typical cold symptoms: sweating, fever and chills, sneezing, watery eyes, and dry cough. But contemporary doctors did identify 4 distinct clinical forms of Russian Flu: a simple fever that would increase over 48 hours and then subside within 3 or 4 days; a gastrointestinal form in which people had severe diarrhea, fevers, and stomach aches (which honestly could have been a co-infection with the raging Cholera epidemic at the time); a rarer catarrhal form (profuse mucus production that would fill the sinuses and lungs and progress to pneumonia); and finally the worst one, a “nervous” form that caused intense nerve pain in the hands and feet driving people mad. Regardless of which form someone got the worst symptom, and the most common reason why someone would die outside of catching pneumonia (fluid in the lungs) is developing skin lesions. These bullae (large blisters filled with white fluid) were painful, itchy, and formed in the creases of the feet, hands, and extremities which were prone to popping—once popped they were open sores ripe for infection. If you didn’t manage to die from the skin lesions then kidney failure, digestive inability, or spinal nerve damage that would drive people towards suicide was another common way to die.
    • Here’s the problem with Russian Flu…it doesn’t appear to be a Flu. Nowadays we attribute the word Flu to the Influenza Virus, a small RNA virus from the family Orthomyxoviridae but back in previous centuries the word Influenza meant any disease that affected humans. The word is derived from the Latin influentia meaning “to flow into” and it was believed that the stars gave off an intangible fluid that flowed into humans and caused sickness. Eventually this idea would morph into the Humoral Theory of Disease in which there are 4 fluids in the body that need to be balanced else they cause disease. There are 4 types of Influeza Virus: A and C which infect a variety of different animals (human, pig, bird, horse, bat), B which exclusively infects humans (although seals have been seen with Influenza B), and D which exclusively infects pigs and cows. If you’re older than 10 years old, you’ve almost certainly been infected with Flu at some point—already the 2022-2023 Flu season has 26 million infections in just the US alone.

  • Real quick I want to talk about the names of Influenza Viruses. The Influenza Virus is a sphere shaped particle that has primarily two proteins on its surface: Hemagglutinin (HA or H) and Neuraminidase (NA or N). These proteins are incredibly important for the virulence of the pathogen—the Hemagglutinin helps the virus bind to the target cell and infect its viral genome into the cell while the Neuraminidase helps burst the cell when the baby viruses are ready to be released. So far 18 HA subtypes (called serotypes) and 11 NA serotypes have been isolated in nature allowing for considerable genetic variation. Thus we classify Influenza A viruses based on what version of the H and N proteins they have: H1N1 caused the Spanish Flu of 1918 (killing 20-100 million people) and the Swine Flu of 2009 (killing about 400,000 people); or H3N2 caused Hong Kong Flu in 1968-9 (1 million dead). Even still there are several combinations that only infect animals, such as H5N1 is Avian Flu and is tracked by many governments to prevent a possible transmission from bird to humans. All Flu A viruses are also classified by a standard nomenclature based on where and when they were first discovered. For example, Swine Flu was referred to as A/Brisbane/59/2007 since it was first discovered in Brisbane in 2007.

  • The thing is, Russian Flu may not be an Influenza like we first thought. Traditionally it is believed that the Russian Flu was caused by H3N8 (which primarily infects horses) or H2N2 (which caused the Asian Flu of 157-8). The problem with this is that Russian Flu does not share many of the common Flu symptoms we have seen in other outbreaks—Flu follows a pretty consistent 2-8 day pattern focusing mostly in the lungs. Severe complications of Flu can lead to more severe respiratory distress, meningitis, or encephalitis but other organ involvement is pretty limited. Russian Flu almost always involved other organs. This idea isn’t a contemporary one either, people had suspicions on just what Russian Flu really was.
    • Following the discoveries of Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch in the field of microbiology, the race of finding the causative agents for common diseases was on. In 1891, German Richard Pfeiffer isolated an unknown bacteria from the nose swabs of patients infected with Influenza. On January 4th, 1892 he announced he had found it, the cause of Influenza: Haemophilus influenzae. There was a momentous uproar in the scientific community because if we know what causes a disease it indicates that we can treat the disease. The problem is that Pfeiffer could not replicate the infection of H. influenzae showing definitively that it caused Flu. But as more and more people kept finding H. influenzae in patients affected with Flu, the observations were corroborated and later was accepted as fact—by 1900 it was believed that the cause of Flu (any lung infection) was due to this bacteria. This fact was firmly cemented in the medical psyche as H. influenzae was found over and over again in Flu victims during the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918.

A List of Flu Cures Dancing to Flu
  • But there was some skeptics—one of the big reasons to doubt was that antibiotics at the time did not touch Flu. Now this was before Penicillin but drugs like Salvarsan were the goto agent to kill a multitude of bacteria (you can read more about this arsenic containing ‘medicine’ in my post here!) but it couldn’t touch the Flu. It wouldn’t be until 1931 that the disease Influenza was discovered to be from a virus not a bacteria like once thought. When the development of genome sequencing came about, we were able to sequence Spanish Flu (1918) as H1N1, the same one that caused the Asian Influenza epidemic in 1957 and later Swine Flu in 2009. In 2005 we used samples from graves to ‘revive’ the 1918 virus and found that it was incredibly infectious in primates. When Flu was discovered in 1933, scientists back-dated all epidemics that were called Influenza and claimed it was caused by H1N1. There is additional evidence to support this claim though that Flu may have caused Russian Flu. By looking at serotypes in corpses of adults born between 1863 and 1886, they discovered higher antibodies for the H2 subtype. But when they analyzed samples from corpses from 1910, they had the same levels.

  • Following the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers started to take another look at the Russian Flu and see if it was infact Flu. COVID-19 does resemble Influenza epidemics due to its similar respiratory symptoms but with other organ involvement, a Coronavirus was implicated more than a Influenza one. There are 7 Coronaviruses that are infectious to humans—3 caused deadly epidemics SARS-CoV-1 (9% mortality) usually referred to the SARS outbreak in 2002-2004, MERS-CoV (30% mortality) which popped up in 2012, and SAR-CoV-2 (0.6-2%) which we are in right now. The other 4 Coronaviruses are implicated in 15-30% of common colds and have been in the population for decades (probably centuries), HCoV-229E, HCoV-NL63, HCoV-OC43, and HCoV-HKU1. The milder viruses are seasonal and show up every 3-4 years during the normal Flu season of autumn to early spring.In 2005 Belgian researchers found that HCoV-OC43’s genome was very similar to another coronavirus found in cow, BCoV. The DNA sequence of OC43 was almost identical to that of BCoV isolated from corpses from 1890. Does this mean that a coronavirus was the cause of Russian Flu? Well let’s look at the evidence:
    • Firstly, we know viruses can jump between species, especially when there is big populations of that species in prolonged contact with the second—this is why giant pig or bird farms can be hotbeds for viral transmission. With the development of railways in Russia in the second half of the 19th century, cows started to be transported in mass quantities along the railway. This meant that thousands of cattle were packed into tiny poorly ventilated compartments allowing for easy transmission of disease. From 1870 to 1890, the bacteria Mycoplasma mycoides completely crushed cattle populations due to them being packed in close quarters and herds had to be slaughtered quickly to prevent the spread from going worldwide. What would those workers have been exposed to as they started to slaughter more and more animals? Diseases, specifically cow diseases that could have made the jump. This isn’t as far-fetched as it seems—the 2002 SARS epidemic became much worse following the slaughter of thousands of civets for human consumption. Likewise it was noted in 1889 that the cows showed the same symptoms as humans. So it's possible that HCoV-OC43 is the virus that mutated from cows into humans. So between the similarity in symptoms between COVID-19 and Russian Flu, the industrialization of the railways allowing for viruses to mutate and then for people to spread it quickly and globally, and the use of genomic science, we now believe that Russian Flu was really Russian COVID. Let’s just be glad that HCoV-OC43 is now a mild cold and doesn’t cause painful blisters and horrible nerve pain. Cheers!

2023.03.20 17:58 MikeJesus My uncle once poured holy water into a cement mixer. Today I found out why.

Had he lived beyond the Iron Curtain, my uncle would have spent most of his life in a mental asylum. In Communist Czechoslovakia, however, mental asylums primarily served as a means of punishing political opposition so my uncle was relatively free.
Well, for most of his life at least.
Rural existence doesn’t really lend itself to the nuances of mental health, so no one dwelled too far into his peculiarities. He was never formally diagnosed with anything and I wouldn’t dare try to play doctor, but rest assured he was far from stable. The village just considered him crazy and left it at that.
Well, for most of his life at least.
There was a horseshoe shaped scar above his right eye. When I was a kid I presumed he was strange because of that scar, but decades later, in hushed whispers after family reunions — I would find out my uncle was born strange.
As a child he would walk out onto the hill at the edge of the forest and howl at the moon like a rabid animal. He shunned the regular toy trains and wooden soldiers that the other boys would play with and instead made his own dolls of sticks and straw. Once he was old enough not to require constant supervision my uncle would disappear into the forest for days on end and would only return back to the village for food and water. When, in his late teens, my uncle arrived at the breakfast table with blood dripping down his forehead his parents just assumed he had gone out on another misadventure.
The boy was strange, but he was not deemed dangerous. As cryptic as his speech was, as incomprehensible as his behavior was — the village had agreed that he was harmless. The boy was strange, but he would never hurt a living soul.
Until the autumn of ’78 that notion held true.
Much of my early childhood was spent following my uncle around the village. While his erratic behavior was a cause for concern among most of the village, I found him fascinating. While the other adults in my life wanted to lecture me on cleanliness and how a young man should act, my uncle would tell me strange fairy tales about the magical creatures of the forest. The vodníks, the bogienky, the Baba Yaga — my uncle would fill my head with tales of fantastic beasts that roamed beyond the confines of the village. The talk of responsibility and cleanliness that all the adults in my life would subject me to was senseless noise compared to the mysterious sermons my uncle would impart to me.
In ’74 or ’75 my great-grandfather died. A couple months after the village funeral much of the family loaded themselves into their Trabants and Ladas and drove out to Poprad, the nearest city where the inheritance proceedings would take place. Even though my uncle had a downright antagonistic relationship with cars, when it came time to depart, he pushed me over to the middle seat and joined in on the ride.
The man never shaved. For most of the drive through the hills his unkempt beard kept on rubbing against my face. I distinctly remember being irritated at the prospect of having to ride between him and my grandmother. My face itched and I was angry about not being consulted on the seating arrangements in the car but by the time we arrived in the city my spirits calmed. My family promised a solemn reading of the will. My uncle promised a stroll around the city.
I chose my uncle. While my parents got ready for the reading of the will and arguments over who inherits what land, me and my uncle set off on walk through the center square. At least, that’s what he announced to the family.
Our course quickly changed.
The main square of Poprad was filled with all sorts of fantastic things a village boy might find amusing, but my uncle had other plans. He led me out of the center towards a roadway. The cement houses that surrounded the road proved to be of some interest but after a while they disappeared as well. All that was left was a busy road surrounded by fields.
For what felt like an eternity we dodged cars with nothing to shield us from the summer sun. I was starting to grow frustrated with my uncle again, I even started to complain about my legs hurting, but before my frustration manifested into a childish outburst the true destination of my uncle’s pilgrimage was revealed — the Poprad airport.
I wasn’t raised under a rock. I watched cartoons. I knew planes existed. I just never saw one in the flesh. Decades down the line I would become an aerospace engineer, the moment clearly had an impact. That initial burst of pure fascination of seeing a real flying machine will stick with me till the day I die — but it will always be tainted by what my uncle said to me.
My uncle grabbed me by the shoulder and pointed towards the airfield. With utter disgust and rage in his voice he told me that “The devil drives in one of those machines. You have to keep your eye on them.”
Over the years I had chosen to forget about my uncle’s inexplicable hatred of planes and just focused on the moment when I fell in love with engineering. Yet over the past couple of days, I have thought long and hard about what he said that summer afternoon.
I’ve also been thinking a lot about the holy water incident of autumn ’78.
The construction of the new fire station was the most interesting thing to happen in the village all year. The rickety church would still be the highest building in the village, but it would only retain its position because it stood on top of a hill. The two story cement structure grew day by day and even half-finished it managed to dwarf all the cottages around it.
That autumn I spent every afternoon at my great-grandfather’s grave. My parents thought I sat by the tombstone because of some sudden burst of filial piety and they relaxed their stances on chores in response. Truthfully I just sat there for a good view of the fledgling fire station. Watching the building be constructed in individual steps, from the metal scaffolding to the mixing of the cement was utterly fascinating to 12-year-old me.
It was during one of my afternoon observation sessions that the holy water incident took place. I was watching the workers mix cement to fill up the metal skeleton of the second floor when the doors of the church burst open. Out came running my uncle, with a jug of water cradled in his arms. After him, flustered and red in the face, came the village priest. Behind the sprinting priest, peeking out of the church doors like nervous sheep, came the attendants of afternoon mass.
The construction of the new fire station was the most interesting thing to happen in the village all year, but the holy water incident quickly overshadowed anything that had happened all decade. My uncle dashed down the church hill towards the construction gripping the stolen jug of holy water. A handful of workers were attending to the cement mixer but with savage shouts my uncle dissolved their huddle. With the intensity of a fire-fighter at an ammunition depot my uncle started to pour the holy water into the cement mixer.
The priest was beside himself with zealous rage, but the man of cloth wouldn’t touch my uncle. One of the construction workers, however, unbound by oaths of non-violence, tried to intervene. He grabbed my uncle by the shoulders and tried to pull him away from the cement mixer so that the holy water would not be squandered.
My uncle had never been a violent man. It was perhaps because of his harmless nature that the village tolerated his bizarre behavior. My uncle had never been a violent man, but when the construction worker attempted to stop him from pouring the holy water into the cement he turned around and planted his fist square into the construction worker’s nose. The impact of the punch could be heard from atop of the church hill.
The construction worker reeled back from the hit and landed straight on his ass in the gravel. As the man in dirty overalls collected the blood from his bleeding nose my uncle finished off what he set off to do. He poured the rest of the water into the cement mixer, and then, when the holy jug was empty, he screamed a cry of victory:
“Charcoal!” he yelled, “Charcoal for the long winter!”
Back then, those words meant nothing to me.
My uncle continued to scream about the charcoal until the workmen restrained him. Had he punched one of the villagers the issue would have ended there. My uncle would be chastised for his behavior, perhaps beaten a bit, and then he would be left to his own strange ways. My uncle, however, did not punch some unimportant hick. He punched an out-of-towner who came in to help with the construction. This out-of-towner also happened to be a good friend of the head of the fire safety committee. He was not going to let his broken nose go unpunished.
The police arrived shortly before sunset. By the time the sky was dark my uncle was gone.
They say he died of pneumonia in prison a couple years later, but no one really bothered to check. Once my uncle was driven out of the village his existence fell comfortably into the realm of myth. People would occasionally mention him at family reunions but he was more of a punchline than a human being by then.
The crazy uncle.
The crazy uncle we don’t talk about much. He had slipped my mind too. For a couple weeks after the holy water incident I was curious about his fate, about why he would pour holy water into a cement mixer, about the charcoal for the long winter — yet soon enough those questions were buried beneath the universal blues of puberty. By the time I got out of high-school I scarcely remembered I even had a crazy uncle.
I studied engineering in Prague and, when the Bolshevik system collapsed halfway through my studies, I fought tooth and nail to move to the West. I finished off my masters in Delft and then, through a lucky set of coincidences, ended up flying across the ocean to Arlington.
I spent most of my life in the US, away from my roots. I got married, had kids, got divorced and worked myself to the bone in the process. When my father died my schedule was far too hectic to make the flight back home. All I managed to do was to sit by his grave overlooking the now defunct fire station. My father was gone and, after a week or so of visiting, I found my mother on her way as well.
I didn’t show up for my flight back to the states. Instead, I stayed in the village where I was born.
The first couple of weeks were confusing. The village was much smaller than it was in my memories of youth. Everything was quieter, more peaceful and when night came the darkness was so total, I felt like I could grip it in my fist. The once mighty fire-station had become an empty building that served as a makeshift town hall and a place to have funeral receptions. The only thing that didn’t seem to have aged was the rickety church and that was just because if it got any more unstable it would collapse.
After the disorienting arrival I adjusted to my new rural life. My mother was confined to her bed, so I spent most of my time in the cottage tending to her or listing through the many books I promised myself I would read after I retired. The days started to blur into each other and I found myself much calmer than I had been in decades. Rural life had turned out to be rather blissful.
Then, a snake fell from the sky.
Verona Halčín, the mother of the mayor, reported one day that a snake fell on top of her as she was making her way up the church hill. She was much older than my mother, but Verona’s religious zeal and need to be the center of attention kept her animated well past her years. The mayor’s mother claimed that the snake had been a punishment from God. The village veterinarian claimed that the snake was probably just some bird’s dinner. The mayor claimed that the snake issue would be addressed.
I did not busy myself with the snake affair. My mother’s health had deteriorated to the point where I would wake up in the middle of the night in fear that she had died. I was more concerned with the impending funeral arrangements than a snake in the church yard. It was during one of my paranoid middle-of-the-night wake-ups, however, that I found something new to worry about.
It must’ve been around 2 in the morning. I found myself sweating in bed and my mother’s snoring had gone worryingly silent. I made my way over to her room to find her lying on her side, still alive and quietly breathing. That’s when I heard that terrible sound.
It started off as a quiet rumble but quickly gained in dark tenor. Soon enough the whole cottage was shaking. Somewhere above us something terrible moved. It sounded like thunder amplified through a metal cave. The terrible noise was unlike anything I had ever heard before and its mere presence made any thought impossible. It wasn’t until the dark roar had fizzled off into the distance that I realized that the noise sounded strangely familiar.
I just couldn’t place my finger on it.
My mother has been hard of hearing for years now. She slept through the deafening roar and, when I asked her about it in the morning, she excused it as a simple thunderstorm somewhere off in the distance. Her explanation didn’t calm me.
In the evening, once my mother had gone to sleep, I found myself in need of company and a drink.
Off in the village pub the air was rife with discussion about more alleged snake sightings. Some claimed the snakes were a sign of divine judgment, others claimed that there was a stork nest in the steeple of the church — all were very convinced of their theories. The discussion was losing in its civility and threatened to burst into violence, yet before fists and chairs started getting thrown around mayor Halčín banged on the table and demanded calm. The steeple of the church would be inspected on the following morning. All discussion of snakes was to cease till then.
In that brief silence between the shouts I thought of bringing up the strange howl I had heard in the night, but before I did someone beat me to it. The city kid spoke up.
We had both moved to the village around the same time, but I had roots. He didn’t. The kid asked about the strange noise in the night and all he received from the table were stares.
Halčín told him it was just thunder. The rest of the table murmured in approval.
The kid didn’t take it. He said he saw a glimpse of the thing. Something had flown above the village. The kid started saying something about the thing shining with red light but before he could get into any proper descriptions Halčín stopped him in his tracks.
It was thunder, Halčín reminded him. The sound the boy had heard was thunder and any further discussion was spreading panic just like the snake talk. He was told, in no uncertain terms, that further input on the subject was not welcome.
I had grown up around Halčín and knew not to contradict him. The kid didn’t seem to need the years of experience. He knew to stay quiet as well. After the mayor had shut him up the kid finished his drink and left. I was happy I didn’t bring up the sound myself. Eventually, with a couple of drinks, I convinced myself that Halčín had been right — all I heard was some far off thunder.
At least that’s what I told myself.
I couldn’t fall asleep that night. I had drunk enough to become sluggish and my internal monologue had descended from words into vague notions, but consciousness refused to depart. I laid in bed, listening to my mother’s strained snoring, trying to remember why the sound I had heard the night prior sounded so familiar.
My mind was far too dulled to even properly recall the sound, but by the time the bedside alarm clock creeped towards 2AM it was no longer necessary. The sound was back. As if it had been tied to my mother’s snores it slowly crawled into reality. The roar above grew louder and louder until everything else ceased to exist. The windows of the cottage shook, my face grew numb — everything in the world descended into nothingness to make room for that deafening sound.
Perhaps because of exhaustion, perhaps because of fear; I couldn’t bring myself to get out of bed. I laid under my covers with my eyes wide open staring at the ceiling trying to fully concentrate on that terrible sound outside.
Well before the noise reached its deafening zenith, I placed it.
It was unlike any engine I had ever witnessed; it was much louder and darker than anything I had encountered in the decades of my career — but the noise was unmistakable.
A plane was flying at an extremely low altitude above me.
I wanted to get up, to look at what sort of engine could produce such a horrid sound — yet lying in that bed I found myself paralyzed. The roar from the skies above, even muffled by the walls of my wooden childhood home, was so loud it made my teeth chatter. All notion of physical strength drained my body and I was left motionless in bed.
When the roar finally died down, when the night settled and all I could hear was the bubbling of the far off stream and the snoring of my aged mother — I put on my shoes and walked outside. Somewhere off in the distance that terrible sound still rumbled, but aside from the burning moon the sky was clear. Standing there, searching the night sky for a hint of a plane my uncle’s words crashed into my internal monologue:
“The devil drives in one of those machines. You have to keep your eye on them.”
There was a terrible storm the following day. Hail the size of fists dropped from the sky and the gentle bubbling stream that led through the village threatened to turn into a flooding river. I had spent the whole day inside tending to my mother, but later I would find out that there had been a death at the church. A farmhand had been sent up to the steeple to check if a stork had made a nest there, but during his ascent the wind had shifted and the ladder he was climbing turned loose. The farmhand met his end against the metal fence of the church. His death was not quick.
On any other occasion the death of the farmhand would have overshadowed all happenings in the village for weeks. The events of the following night, however, pushed the youth’s death into obscurity.
My mother had gone to sleep well before midnight. I was alone in the cottage, sitting by the window and occasionally watching the clock sluggishly turn closer to 2 AM. All that kept me company was her snoring, but beyond the glass I could see other cottages were lit up just like mine. The storm had prevented me from talking to the other villagers about the roaring jet engine, but it was clear others were awaiting its return as well.
We all sat around our windows, expecting answers.
Instead of clarity, however, the village received destruction.
I spent hours waiting by the window just so that I could see the source of that deafening sound. The closer the clock got to two the more my knees started to ache. Something deep inside of me demanded I turn away. Something deep inside of me knew that what was hiding behind that window was best unseen. By the time the rumbling started off beyond the hills I had to grip the windowsill to stay upright.
My teeth clenched and my eyeballs bulged and I had to press my face against the glass — but I saw it. For a mere collection of seconds that will forever be scarred into my memory — I saw it.
It was unlike any plane I had ever witnessed.
Whatever make the airbus was, it was bigger than anything I had ever worked with or seen. If you took the Antonov, painted it jet black and then pushed its size to the very limit of aerodynamics and then pushed a bit further — that’s how big the plane above was. On its massive wings sat two blood red lights that shot tendrils of pain from my eye-balls to the back of my skull. Every moment I spent looking at the machine I could feel my sanity slip away. I did not last at the window for long. soon enough I was curled up on the floor with my palms shielding my ears.
Before my body gave out, however, I noticed the most horrid thing of all:
The plane was flying dangerously low. The plane was flying dangerously low and heading straight for the steeple of the church. Beyond the metal screech I could not hear the impact. I could not hear anything. The universe distilled itself into cacophony and only a single thought, a single memory broke through —
“The devil drives in one of those machines. You have to keep your eye on them.”
Well after the noise had rumbled off beyond the valley, I was still lying on the floor. My mind had been completely sandblasted by fear and every inch of my body felt foreign. It wasn’t until I heard shouts from the outside that I managed to crawl to my knees.
The church had indeed been hit. The steeple had been knocked down and reduced into nothing but kindling that burned over the graves. The rest of the church was also burning. It was as if the plane had sparked the fire itself.
The sight of the eldritch airbus had been enough to drive me to the floor, but the fire had brought me back to my senses. Without much conscious thought I pulled on my shoes and ran to the old barn in search of buckets.
Dozens of villagers helped. Quickly, we organized into a chain of young and old and strong and weak — but our efforts did nothing to stem the blaze. It would take a solid hour for a firetruck to make its way through the winding hills of the valley. Well before the flashing lights appeared there was nothing left of the church worth saving.
When the bucket party had given up, chaos spread through the crowd. The city kid, the one that had first talked about the howl of the plane at the pub — he claimed he had taken a video of the crash.
His phone, however, had shorted out and refused to turn back on.
I had seen the plane. Others, who had waited with their lights turned on, had seen the plane as well. In the chaos we did our best to support his claims, but our voices were quickly drowned out.
Verona Halčín had seized the narrative and started to preach. There had been no plane, she swore. What we had witnessed was a strike of God. He had started with snakes dropped from the sky, then he brought down a mighty storm and now, at the zenith of his rage, he had struck down the steeple of the church. Her fervor quickly shifted from abstract accusations of godlessness to finger pointing.
She said it was the kid, and other outsiders, who had tainted the village. There were voices of reason in the crowd, but they were few. With the church still burning and the crowd wild with panic Verona’s words turned to absolute fury.
The kid quickly fled.
Fearing that Verena would search for a new scapegoat, I made my exit as well.
When I returned home, I was shocked to learn that my mother had slept through the entire affair. Even as the sirens of the overdue fire truck arrived by the church, her heavy snores scarcely changed in rhythm.
I did not wake her up that night. I feared that the sudden shock might push her to the grave and, even if her heart could handle being pulled out of slumber — I couldn’t imagine how I would explain what had happened to her.
The roar from the sky was much louder than it had been the night previous. With each passing sunset the plane got closer and closer to the village. The airbus cut through the church steeple as if it was a tower of toothpicks. I dreaded to think what would happen the following night.
When my mother awoke, I brought her breakfast and tea to bed. I had no idea how to broach the subject of the low-flying airplane. At first I tried to find a way to transition from our casual morning chat to the impending danger, but when no obvious path presented itself I simply came out with it — I told my mother that an incomprehensible jet had crashed into the steeple of the church. Tonight, I told her, it would fly much lower and create untold suffering.
It was time for us to leave the village.
My mother took the confusing news with nothing but a twitch of the eyebrow. When I told her about the church, when I insisted that we get in the car and drive to the city, when I told her we were in danger — she simply shook her head. Wordlessly, she pushed away her plate, climbed out of bed and shuffled her way over to the window.
When she was still able to climb the church hill my mother had been a religious person. She had never missed Sunday mass and, whenever anyone in the family was making a change in career or undergoing surgery, she would provide nightly prayers to hedge bets with the almighty. Seeing the burnt down husk of the village church that morning, however, elicited no emotion from the woman. She simply gazed out of the window and then, almost in a whisper, said:
“Charcoal for the long winter.”
My mother wasn’t looking at the church. She was looking at the old fire station.
When I asked her to repeat herself, she acted as if she said nothing at all. I asked about my uncle, about the charcoal, about the planes — yet all she did was shake her head and pity her poor brother’s soul. Then, she quickly changed the topic of conversation. She was going to cook lunch. I was to bring her some wood for the stove.
I made a couple weak attempts at salvaging the mystery of my uncle, but my mother pretended she couldn’t hear me. The thought of staying in the village despite the imminent danger was undeniably absurd, but I knew the old woman wouldn’t get into my car willingly.
When I went outside with the wood basket it started to snow.
As we ate lunch she talked a lot more than usual. My mother had always been chatty, but age had slowed her down. By the time I had arrived in the village it was clear my mother had become unaccustomed to conversation. As we dug into the goulash though, my mother’s sentences connected and she even seemed animated. She spoke of my childhood and my dad and other family members no longer present. She even mentioned her brother.
She asked me if I remembered how scruffy his beard was.
I was happy to see my mother so animated, but I had to ask. As I brought up the airplane and the charcoal and the water spilt into the cement mixer, her face softened. This time she didn’t pretend she didn’t hear me. She shook her head and smiled and told me everything would be okay.
There was something in her voice that made me believe her.
By the time we finished off lunch the world beyond the window was white. My mother’s post-lunch nap quickly turned into deep sleep and I went out to chop some wood. With my head full of memories I drifted into the sunset.
Well before two I was sitting vigil.
Just after the sun set a handful of cars made their exit from the village. Each pair of passing headlights nudged me towards the idea of escape, yet I knew it was already too late. The hill roads that led back to civilization were already dangerous to drive through during the day. Setting out after dark was suicide.
So, I waited. With my mother snoring in the other room and the moon-lit world covered in snow, I waited for the plane to arrive. Beyond the window other homes were lit up in anticipation. Knowing that I was not the only one awaiting the arrival of that incomprehensible machine made the minutes counting down to two almost tranquil.
The first sign of that devilish rumble, however, wiped out all calmness from the world. My knees turned weak once more. All I wanted to do was curl up and avert my gaze from the incoming terror. With every ounce of courage I had, I gripped the windowsill and kept my eyes locked onto the trees beyond.
The moment the dark mammoth rose from behind the trees a flurry of pain shot through the back of my skull. It felt like someone was putting out cigarettes against the back of my eyes. The engine of the devil’s machine was so overpowering that my agonized screams were nothing but a gentle tone in the nether regions of my ears.
Each second that I spent looking out of the window was tearing away at any conscious thought that was left in my brain, but I drove my fingers into the wood of the windowsill and kept myself on my feet. I watched the black airbus descend onto the village where I had spent my youth.
I watched the black airbus head straight for the old fire station.
The moment the plane’s nose made direct contact with the cement structure a brilliant light consumed the night. Sparks were flying everywhere. The roar of the engine whimpered away and was replaced with the screech of a thousand metal grinders.
My eyes could handle the approach of the airbus, but they could not withstand the impact. Drenched in tears, they gave out along with my knees. Lying on the floor of the cottage the terror of the plane crash did not leave me. Every flicker of light that bounced in from the window seemed to be ripping the air out of my lungs. In a state of utter panic I gasped for breath and prayed that the world would return to normal.
The cacophony lasted for what felt like an eternity. I was certain that my body would give out and that I would choke in the company of those horrid flashing lights. Yet, eventually, with sudden silence — the noise stopped.
My eyes were drenched in tears and every muscle in my body was shivering, but I managed to climb up to my knees and look out of the window. The plane was gone. The plane was gone and the fire-station still stood. Next to the cement building, blending into the moon-lit night, sat a mountain of black.
I scarcely registered the charcoal before my body gave up.
I spent the whole night on the floor, drifting in and out of consciousness. Dreams never came, but when I did find myself in those brief moments of wakefulness my body refused to get up. I lay on the floor the whole night, desperately assuring myself that I was still alive.
The morning sun streaking in through the windows was a flickering candle compared to the sparks of the crash. Everything felt terribly distant and nonsensical. The universe in which an airbus could dissipate against an old cement building felt far too incomprehensible to reenter after my ordeal. It wasn’t until I found my mother standing over me in the morning that feeling returned back to my limbs.
She had started a fire in the stove and was getting ready to cook lunch. With the same tone that she would dictate chores to me as a child she ordered me to go outside and gather some charcoal.
If I wouldn’t go soon, it would all be gone.
I lacked all energy to argue or try to make sense of the world. I simply grabbed the wood basket and went out into the snow. By the time I had made my way to the old fire-station the mountain of charcoal had turned into a hill. By the time we finished eating lunch most of the stove fuel had been scavenged away.
The whole affair still puzzles me, but after that one bright night the airbus never returned. I do not know what led my uncle to pour holy water into the cement so many years ago, but I understand the purpose now. My strange uncle saved us. He saved the village from an incomprehensible machine that threatened to wipe the village off the map.
He saved us and he made sure we would be prepared for the long winter that was to come.

2023.03.20 17:44 Shin-kun1997 [In Progress] [4,227] [Science Fiction] Epsilons Trial

Id appreciate some feedback as I plan to self publish this at some point in a larger book.
Epsilon’s Trial
With heavy shoulders slumped, Sebastian Pasquet walked through the door of his house and kicked off his shoes, dropping the suitcase and hanging up his jacket. The turtleneck shirt he wore was covered in specs of dust and dirt, all of which emerged from today's earlier events.
“Ugh. I swear this position is gonna drive me into the bloody ground.” he grunted in a thick English accent. “I’m home.”
His voice caught the attention of a woman dressed in a blue shirt and apron, her hair was a dark silver and her eyes were violet, but her most defining features were a pair of cat-like ears protruding from her head, as well as a tail that stretched down to her feet. 
She walked towards him and instantly embraced him in a hug, causing him to drop the suitcase. He didn’t care and simply returned the love, pushing his lips against hers as he smirked. Greeting him was his wife, Alvia. A Felis from the planet Eria some 230,000,000 kilometers from Fiore.
A world with the lowest population in Eridani at 2.5 billion inhabited by a shy, peaceful race that, while possessing spaceflight and the ability to travel through jump space, had no off world settlements apart from their moon.
“Welcome back.” she said as her tail curved around his leg. “I missed you so much. It’s five thirty by the way, don’t you usually get out by four?”
“There was an accident on one of the launch pads that needed attention.”
“Oh my, I hope no one was hurt.”
“Don’t worry, it was an unmanned test. No crew on board.”
“Ah, great. Well my love, your hard day's work is over for the time being.” She pecked his cheek once more. “Come on, dinner’s almost finished.”
He stepped into the living room where a young boy was sitting on the floor reading a children's book. The area was designed with a modern and cozy aesthetic with the TV embedded in the wall, an L-shaped couch at the center, and family portraits stacked across a nearby table. One of them depicted Sebastian five years ago in his EVA suit, taken just before launch. 
His seven year old son, Jeremy, greeted him with a hug. While he resembled a younger version of himself, he’d been born a Felis just like Alvia, inheriting his mothers ears and tail.
“Hey kiddo.” Sebastian said, picking him up and scratching behind his ears. “What’d you do all day?”
“I got to help mom with dinner.” he replied, in a cheery voice. “Oh, Dad, are we still gonna go to the expo? Mari said she’s going with her parents.”
Jeremy had been referring to the Interstellar Aerospace Expo of 2273, which was to be held on the planet Vandam in two months. The annual thirteen day long convention where space companies, private initiatives, and anti-gravity racers from all across Eridani gathered to celebrate the one thing they all shared in common; flying.
“Of course we are.” Sebastian replied. “But were you good in school today?”
His son nodded.
“Then, I’ll be sure to take you to the anti-gravity race when we go.”
Jeremy cheered at his reply. Upon putting him down, Alvia directed him to wash his hands before dinner. He watched Jeremy head up the stairs towards the bathroom as his wife placed her head against his shoulder. 
“I swear, he can’t stop talking about that event.” she said.
Changing into a t-shirt he plopped onto the couch and turned the TV on just in time to witness a news report taking place. A story discussing a recent development regarding an unknown object floating within space, specifically the Strain Belt, the massive asteroid belt that separated Fiore from Eris. The screen then switched to a photograph taken within the belt via a satellite, depicting a violet light within a field of asteroids. As his wife sat beside him Sebastian became puzzled at the story, his mind curious as to what the supposed entity could be. 
“I read this somewhere earlier. Some are just saying it could be a comet.” Alvia said.
“But what kind of comet stays in the exact same place?” he replied. “It’s probably a defunct probe that’s reached its end.”
Alvia shrugged her shoulders as Sebastian began to massage her ears, which she loved a lot. “Maybe. So, how was today apart from the accident you mentioned?”
“Sorting through paperwork. Supersiving vehicle operation. In short, horrifying.”
“Aw, my peach sounds like he’s been through too much. It’s been two years now since you’ve had this position, director of the astronaut corps.”
“It has its perks. I get to fly in those fancy spaceliners for business trips across the planet or to the moon.”
“Oh? Then maybe you can book us a nice getaway towards those fancy beach hotels.” Sebastian rolled his eyes and smiled at her answer. Alvia slowly raised her head and pressed her lips against his once more, giving Sebastian the go ahead to massage her tail.
“Ew, yuck!”
The two ceased their advances immediately upon hearing the voice of their son in front of them. There, Jeremy stood, mocking his parents' act of love causing the two of them to laugh. When all was said and done they walked towards the kitchen where dinner was served, the entire time Sebastian was subjected to Jeremy’s rambling about the exposition. 
The next day Sebastian found himself quickly jogging through the halls of Ophir Space Complex, the campus-sized facility that managed all launches and missions of the company. He arrived at the designated meeting room and was greeted by the sight of James sitting at the head of an oval-shaped mahogany table. Beside him were Romero and Alex as well, all dressed in matching suit attire. 
Sebastian noticed at the table center a hologram of the planet Fiore, which was odd because this room didn’t have that feature the previous day.
“Sorry if I’m late. Had to drop my son off at school and traffic was impatient on the way back.” Sebastian said, taking his seat.
“Not at all mate. We’re waiting on a few more actually.” Romero replied, shaking Sebastian's hand. “How is your boy anyway?”
“Excited for the expo, that’s for sure. Says some of his friends are going too.”
“Same for me and my little girl.” Alex added. “I hear that there’s going to be a Human vs. Astrean anti-gravity prix.”
“How much do you want to bet they’ll kick our arses?”
Eventually several other suited men stepped into the room and upon closing the door, took their seats and greeted Sebastian and his colleagues. 
“Good. Now that everyone’s here, let's get this meeting started.” Romero proclaimed. “To begin, what is on the schedule for this month in terms of the new models?”
“Fortunately the accident yesterday was only minor and the damage was menial, the engineers over at our plant in Harriet are repairing it as we speak.” Alex replied. “Construction on two other prototypes are underway as we speak.”
“Will it be ready in time for the exposition?” another man asked.
“We believe so. With a little more time.”
“More time? The event is in two months and we have yet to present anything to the board and CEO. If we don’t procure results fast we’ll be coming in fifth place for the fourth year in a row.”
“Easy now, I’m sure our engineers here are on the case. Yesterday’s mishap has not slowed us down before, and it will not slow us down again.”
The hologram at the center suddenly switched to a star map of Eridani, displaying all barren and inhabited worlds within the star system, including the eight planets humanity resided on. Their names were shown just below the tiny sphere they represented. 
Daphne. Rhea. Nova. Antari. Freya. Cascade. . And his own planet, Fiore.
Soon after, a hologram of the spacecraft in question appeared at the center of the map as well. Sebastian was silent for the most part, somewhat annoyed at the constant bickering between the old men. 
“The model comes in one and two seater variants we’ve labeled as the Ichinose-class. Its nickname is Epsilon.” Alex spoke. “We were implementing a two engine propulsion system that not only propels the ship forward, but provides power for the rest of the ship. Sebastian, wanna give the rundown?”
He nodded, shifting everyone's attention to the TV display on the wall which now showed a diagram of the ship.
“Our spacecraft compared to Astreans, while advanced, are relatively primitive in their eyes. Well at least in terms of design and architecture. Astreans ships use deuterium and tritium to power their reactors while we use deuterium and helium-3, with liquid hydrogen remaining as the primary fuel source. But what makes Epsilon different is its engines.”
“Oh?” another man said.
“Typically, our vehicles employ chemically fueled aerospike plasma engines, the newer engines you’re seeing here are fusion powered and designed to not only provide direct thrust, but power to the spacecraft altogether.”
Each of the men’s eyes widened at Sebastians response. Such a design for a spacecraft was unproven on Fiore, but the concept and practicality was very much real. In fact most companies and organizations on other human worlds had recently fielded such designs. Sebastian continued. 
“Speed is also another factor we’ve looked over. A typical trip from Fiore to Eris in this planetary system will take around 7 hours. These engines can cut that flight down to just 2.5 hours of non-stop travel. Especially when you consider that it takes 5 hours to get to the Strain Belt.”
The men then began conversing amongst themselves at Sebastians statement. While some of them were supportive of the concept of lower trips across the interplanetary medium, others were skeptical. When asked if the engines were tested with astronauts Sebastian shook his head. 
“I haven’t assigned anyone to fly it as of yet, but rest assured the tests are coming back with many positive results.”
“Positive, but unmanned,” he replied. “If this were to fail, the amount of bad publicity would damage our reputation for years to come. We cannot proceed further without human ratings.”
Sebastian sighed to himself as he grunted, the men of the table chatting back and forth about the safety and possible outcomes the fusion engines would provide. He tried to find the words to say to appease the table but their corporate tone, mildly annoying political voices hindered that effort. For the past several minutes the meeting continued, with two sides discussing both the pros and cons of having such a design. Finally, after seemingly an eternity of old men debating over coffee as his wife put it, he slammed a hand on the table causing Alex to flinch. Standing from his seat, all eyes were now trained on him. 
“Enough. All this bickering is not getting us anywhere. If you want results, I’ll fly the damn ship myself.”
As if coming to some horrendous realization the table's members simply stared at Sebastian upon his closing statement. For his part, Sebastian was set on fulfilling the test operation. Further explaining that he would assign himself to a manned test of the vehicle as soon as possible. 
“I’m not so sure that would be an appropriate move, as the astronaut office head you’re responsible for ensuring launch vehicles are up to company standards.”
“And what better way to do that than from inside the said vehicle?” Sebastian replied. “Look, everyone in both corporate and engineering is under a lot of stress and worrying about our place at the exposition. I can put all those to rest with a simple interplanetary flight to Eria.”
“I agree.” Alex added. “Sebastian is one of the more experienced pilots in the program as well, especially when you look at his resume.”
Silence filled the room. The diagram of the engine disappeared from the screen as Sebastian took his seat once more, their eyes wandering back and forth as if lost in thought and trying to find counter arguments. As it became evident that there were no further words to say, one of the men had taken a piece of paper and began writing. 
“I will take it to the board then,” he said. “If we’re talking about a spaceflight, then might we add an extra task?”
When Sebastian arrived at the Strain Belt he was fast at work, enjoying the wilderness of space that he’d spent so long away from. A week had passed and he was installing one of many beacons along a column of asteroids, his EVA circulating oxygen and maintaining a stable body temperature. He had departed Fiore a few hours earlier after taking Jeremy to school and kissing his wife goodbye, now conducting a mission which included not only working out any of Epsilon’s bugs, but locating an interstellar object which had been spotted by a company space probe. 
Sebastian jumped from the asteroid and floated back towards Epsilon where the airlock was still open. Pressurizing the interior he assumed control of the vehicle and used the thrusters to gently move into more open space. The thick concentration of asteroids surrounding him resembled a field of death, something no human without the proper experience should be able to survive.
While the ship's hull was sturdy, Sebastian had to maintain constant caution. His senses were on full alert even from inside the safety of the ship. The occasional bumps along the exterior would cause any inexperienced pilot to flinch, but Epsilon was made of some of the best titanium Fiore had. As he arrived at the signal's location Sebastian found himself cast into a sea of dark, the sun barely shining through the asteroids that circled him. 
“I can’t see it yet.” he said to himself. “The news showed that thing to be a bright violet light, but where would it be?”
After floating through the belt for several minutes he was caught by the flash of a bright light, the familiar violet color from the news made its appearance known again. Activating Epsilon’s fusion engines Sebastian sped towards the light as it began to vanish as quickly as it came. He turned on the spacecraft's exterior lights to get a full view of what was before him. 
“Holy crap…”
His eyes took a moment to register what everyone at the space center assumed it to be. A large horizontal object with a shape almost like an oversized satellite with a rod attached to the end, two flat extensions resembling solar panels, and a round dome that covered its opposite end. In fact its shape and various extensions gave it the appearance of a small space station. 
“Control, I think I’ve found it.” Sebastian said through comms. “These markings along the side, those definitely aren’t human made.”
“We read you Epsilon. Are you saying what we’re all thinking?”
“Yeah. This thing is definitely of Xanadu origin.”
The sound of applause could be heard at the end of the radio. Sebastian smirked as he leaned back in his seat upon discovering one of thousands, if not millions of different advanced ancient technologies spread throughout the Milky Way. After relaying the artifact’s location and back to Fiore, his celebration abruptly ended when an alarm began to sound. Glancing at the radar beneath him he spotted two red dots, each representing ships, heading for his position. Sensing something was wrong Sebastian quickly displayed an enhanced frame of the space before him, what he could see were two low grade spacecraft flying towards his position. 
“Aw crap.” Sebastian said, activating the engines. “Control, we’ve got a problem. I’ve got a band of Outcast pirates on my plate now.”
“Well would you look at that.” one of them spoke through comms. “Looks like we’ve got ourselves a butterfly trapped in a thorn bush. No biggie, you hand over that structure there and things don’t have to go south.”
Sebastian sighed. “It was hard enough having to navigate through this freaking death field. Now I have scumbags like you in my schedule? Geeze it just ain’t my day.”
“What was that?!” One of the ships activated their weapons systems.
“Did I stutter? I called you a bunch of low life trash bags who’re probably too stupid to know how a coffee maker works.”
Before he knew it, a concentrated beam of energy came flying through the asteroid field. Using Epsilon’s powerful thrusters Sebastian was only barely able to dodge it. He gripped the stick and began to fly forwards into the fray. To maintain his stability Sebastian had to keep the fusion engine's velocity at a minimum so as to not crash into any asteroids, or worse, the pirates spacecraft. 
“Looks like this butterfly’s been reading too many fantasies. Let’s show em who’s in charge around here!”
He soon found one of the ships now tailing him. Another stream of energy zipped past his ship and grazed the side of the hull plating, setting off another alarm Sebastian quickly silenced. Activating Epsilon's energy shields he quickly formulated a plan in order to gain the upper hand. Despite being a prototype, Epsilon was equipped with defenses including a directed energy weapon and four missiles stored in a lower chamber. 
“Damn. If this keeps up I’ll run out of fuel before I can even plan for the expo’s entrance.” he said to himself, scoffing. “No matter, I’ve got a few tricks of my own.”
As he piloted Epsilon through the dense field he remained calm and collected, knowing that fear and panic would only make the situation much more dire. A common aspect all astronauts followed when venturing in or far from Eridani. Paranoia would only spell certain demise. Sebastian circled another set of rocks before raising his altitude, catching the tailing ship off guard. The ship slammed into the side of the asteroid at an intense velocity. Engulfing the ship in a silent explosion as the flames vanished. 
“One down, one more to go.” Sebastian said. “Hm?”
He stabilized his altitude and ceased all movement to find the last remaining pirate ship before him; it was a few thousand feet away but close enough for Sebaatian to see. Strangely it made no attempts to move, no communication from its crew, all he could see was the low-budget ship flash a red light from its bridge area occasionally. 
“What the heck are they doing…?”
Sebastian realized too late. Within several seconds his spacecraft's systems suddenly began to go haywire, the electricity malfunctioning and life support beginning to fail. Putting on his helmet Sebastian quickly maneuvered Epsilon out of view from the Outcasts using what little power from the spacecraft's backup systems he had. He’d been hit with an EMP. 
“We’ve got him. Finish him off so we can claim our prize.”
Sebastian began to assess the situation as the pirate's spacecraft hovered towards him, the Outcast fired another stream of energy towards Epsilon causing the ship's hull to deteriorate. Using the thrusters Sebastian shifted behind an asteroid to avoid another oncoming stream of energy. Several minutes had passed with Epsilon sneaking around the Outcast ship and avoiding whatever attacks it could. Eventually the two ships found themselves coming within range of a pocket of controlled space within the Strain Belt, Sebastian could spot the orbital infrastructure that made up Ophir Strait. One of only two clear paths of the Strain Belt that served as a trade route between Fiore and Eria. 
“Damn it.” he grunted, hitting the dashboard. “If I don’t end this quickly then we’re both gonna be fired on by the security bots.”
Separated by fifty miles, Sebastian was well outside the exclusion zone of the trade route, and with Epsilon's systems finally back online he ran another scan for the remaining Outcast ship. He spotted him several thousand kilometers in front of him once more, only this time he couldn't see him out the canopy window.
Sebastian squinted his eyes as he looked out the window, his grip firm on the stick as he came to realize that he had to. He thought of Alvia and Jeremy back on Fiore, both of them waiting for his safe return and comforting presence once more. Taking in a breath, he gradually began to speed towards the craft.
“Alright…we got one shot at this.” Sebastian said. “This doesn’t work, then Ophir Strait falls apart.”
Sebastian locked onto the Outcast ahead of him and fired one of the missiles beneath the spacecraft, but not before slightly altering its trajectory. Epsilon increased its speed enough causing the interior to shake and vibrate, the energy shields surrounding the outside were activated once again, as asteroids flew past the canopy glass at a high velocity. Within just a few minutes the Outcast ship came within sight. It fired its directed energy once again straight towards Epsilon which made contact with the energy shield. However Sebastian continued to fly straight towards the craft, ignoring the reducing shield's power. The Outcast panicked, as it appeared that Sebastian would crash Epsilon straight into his ship. 
“Are you crazy?!” the pirate shouted.
Sebastian was unfazed. “Maybe.”
Before he knew it the Outcast was closer than ever, within a split second Sebastian's spacecraft zipped by the pirate in a swift clean motion. Epsilon then used its thrusters to reduce its velocity once more, the pirate beginning to laugh. 
“What the hell was that? No guts to finish it huh?” His ship's energy weapon began to charge. “Looks like this is it then, butterfly.”
“Yeah. For you at least.”
Confused, the Outcast demanded to know what he meant. Sebastian for his part, chuckled as he directed the pirate to look behind him. The two missiles Epsilon fired earlier had reemerged and, with brute force, smashed into the pirates ship from both port and starboard side. A ball of fire engulfed the surrounding space followed by a brief blinding light. All of which could be seen, but not heard. The flames vanished. Filling the space with debris from the destroyed ship that floated off into various directions. Sebastian let out a breath of relief as Epsilon, damaged but still alive, gently raised its altitude to be above the Strain Belt. The sun’s light shone through the glass as he took off his helmet and accepted the light.’ 
“Epsilon, this is Fiore! Epsilon, do you read?” a voice spoke through comms.
“Fiore this is Epsilon, good to hear your voice.”
“Sebastian? Thank God. What’s happening up there? The signal cut out and we’ve been trying to reach you!”
Looking around the interior of the cabin he shrugged his shoulders, taking off his communications cap he responded. 
“Well Fiore, I don’t know how to quite say this….”
Two months had passed since the incident in the Strain Belt, the Xanadu artifact had been secured by the company and taken to an orbital research station on one of Fiore’s moons.
The stadium had been packed to the rim with civilians from all across Eridani filling the twenty thousand seats that surrounded the massive holographic screen at the center of the ring. Fireworks lit the dim sky accompanied by confetti raining from passing overhead ships, and the cheers of all resonated throughout the air. Flags of the various inhabited worlds throughout Eridani flew along the center. 
Among the thousands of civilians, Sebastian sat beside his wife with their son between them.
“Hey, look.” Alvia said, pointing upward. “They’re starting.”
Sebastian glanced towards the sky and his eyes were as wide as dinner plates, as five spacecraft conducting a flyover soared over the stadium in formation. Leaving behind trails blue and white smoke that casted the air in a striped pattern. They were Epsilon spacecraft, the very type that saved his life in a far, dangerous region of space. It was the second day of the 2273 Interstellar Aerospace Expo, hosted by the Astreans that lived on the planet Seira, the day that would kick off with a traditional anti-gravity race between the humans teams from Fiore, and the Jurahan teams from Eden. 
“Dad, are we gonna win?” Jeremy asked.
Sebastian smiled and ruffled his hair. “I sure as hell hope so kid. That way Alex will be getting me lunch when we head back.”
Alvia covered Jeremy’s ears. “Sebastian, language. Not in front of Jeremy.”
“What? If I remember correctly you did the same before we left.”
Alvia playfully punched his arm before placing Jeremy on her lap.
Within moments of the racers being introduced the host of the show gave a brief speech to the people, welcoming all in attendance to both the race and the exposition. Upon finishing the anti-gravity timer began its countdown from ten, with the people all counting in unison as per tradition. Sebastian was happy. Happy that everything in the end worked out, from getting Epsilon approved in time for the exposition, to satisfying his son’s thirst for adventure. As the race began he pulled his wife closer and stroked the tip of her tail as they watched. 
“You know you still owe me an explanation about what happened.” she said. “I want to know all about your first time back up in space.”
“Yeah. Well I’ll tell you…most of what happened.”
Sebastian pecked Alvia’s cheek, as the romanticized scale of the race continued.
