Valentines Day Update · 3:21pm Feb 14th, 2017
Greetings Earthlings fellow humans, time for an update on things.
The new chapter for DSA is almost done. It really shouldn't be taking this long but this is a chapter I've been wanting to do from the beginning. That and the fact that things are getting a little hectic at work meaning I've had few chances to wright for more than 30 min at a time. I wanted to put out a little short story I've been working on for Valentines but it's nowhere near where I want it to be so I've put it off to the side so I can get DSA updated.
In the mean time, here's a little snippet of what's coming:
Dusk found himself alone in a dark void. He couldn't tell if his eyes were open or shut. He floated weightless with no indication of direction or time. His attention was drawn by a flash from behind him. He turned and saw what appeared to be a star shining its light upon a metallic ring on top of a tall obelisk. The ring encircled the star and the obelisk extended down several hundred meters to its base which was on top of a pentagon shaped building. The building was positioned atop what he could only describe as a massive chunk of earth floating in the middle of nowhere.
As Dusk stared transfixed, the light from the star grew brighter. Two specks of light rose out from the star's top and bottom, shot off in opposite directions and vanished into the distance. Before long, they returned, passing over and under the star respectively before returning back to the void.
The motes of light continued this behavior of returning and vanishing causing Dusk to theorize that they were on a circular path. The time between their disappearance and reappearance shortened with each trip meaning that wherever they were going, they were gaining speed. Eventually, the lights were moving so fast that they no longer resembled specks but rings that seemed to stretch out forever. At that point, the gap between them began to shorten.
The light rings moved closer and closer together, eventually into the star and finally into each other. When the two rings fused into one, they vanished in an unimaginably bright explosion that forced Dusk to shield his eyes as the shock-wave consumed him.
