MindFlights - Issue 24

Before Dale can enjoy a weekend of reading manga in seclusion, Mark interrupts his plans with the news that they’ve lost contact with the rover on Phobos.  The most recent download of its data contains a file that neither developer recognizes named “fc01a9”.  When they’re unable to open the file within any standard applications, Dale decides to see what fc01a9 does by running it on a test rover in the building’s sub-basement.  The mysterious program puts the machine into self-diagnostic mode, and as fc01a9 runs, it grows in size.  When the diagnostics finish, the five-ton arachnid stands still.  Or is it ominously waiting?

Behind the Story

Klevtrìth has grown up under the guidance of the elves, training to fight as they do.  He longs for the chance to attack the dwarves and liberate those whom Uthov has enslaved, but is he as ready for war as he thinks?

“First Son” is a tale told by Narith of being separated from his family at age twelve.  Dwarves from the Undain Mountains arrive in droves, escorting wagons sided with iron bars, wagons they soon fill with the townspeople.  Though Narith escapes through the mercy of one of the dwarves, he can do nothing for those who were less fortunate.  His only hope of rescuing them is through an encounter with an elf named Yàrì.
