Ah Symphia. So many discoveries to her name, if HER was relevant it WAS. She, HER; was all female though tough as nails one might be inclined to say. Rough and at times fierce, a storm within a storm. From the moment she had discovered her interest in ancient ruins went beyond simple exploration?
Forest areas had been cut back to reveal ancient structures, if not CITIES.. buried beneath layers on layers of solid stone some weighing tonnes.. BUT, the entrance to one huge nay MASSIVE cavern had revealed a SUMERIAN sub city.. in the middle this beast and described in the tablets found with it at its feet..
An Ulruk. The guardians the WORK MASTERS of the ancients the Annunaki. The strange objects included with it of the slave collar that was thrown at a number of its slaves to create, CONTROL them. ALL desire, ALL sense of being anything other than obedient, subservient to its masters no longer existed.
The Orians had Pite. A biological implant that could be said was equal to if not more advanced form of this slavery, compliance with NO thought, NO will other than to be pleasing without any VIOLENCE or intent to harm others had proven to be extremely effective in the control of criminal elements within so called society.
Clans existed on new Solus 3. Sections of Solus 3 (Earth) divided into 4 distinct CONTINENTS regardless of whether they were islands, WHATEVER. NO individual countries, states existed other than you were CLAN 1 or 2 or .. All had particular skills, talents one might say to contribute to the greater good of all.
Symp could explore within her Clan designated areas.. Jealousy, spite, hatred; did NOT exist. ALL invested in working towards the great good for all. War and weapons of destruction did NOT exist. The arrival of the ORIANS had nulled the weapons of mass destruction.
Nuclear sites, weapons; GONE. Armed forces were GALACIA FEDERA ground forces. BUT primitive in comparison to the Qiverse G Federa forces. Deep space forces that could wipe out an entire planet if they so desired. NOT to be messed with. YET their forces were protecting the weaker, less able to defend themselves races.
Respect for them ? Many who would push their luck re slavery, their thieving, piracy and worse DID NOT dare to attack let alone incur the wrath ot them. IF they said NO or get off a a planet or seizure of a colony et .. they fled. OK so in some instances they did still pillage and plunder before fleeing into the other regions of the Qiverse.
Did Symp have any special powers? NO. An as we might say ORDINARY female. BUT her strength was not just physical she was robust in mind and spirit. Intellectually a smart, intuitive adept thinker, nay; strategist.
When she first, came across these ANCIENT structures, the realization that they were truly ANCIENT in every sense of the word had proven even more amazing as she could not only read CUNIEFORM but SUMERIAN scripts.
Languages and a talent for the PHONETIC GUTTERAL tones came naturally to her. WHAT Symp had NOT been aware of was how one night she had been visited as a CHILD and GIFTED by a being of light some extraordinary GIFTS..
THOSE would come fo light, reveal themselves in what followed as she uncovered sites, treasures and became accepted as a recognized RESPECTED professional.
To be awarded the right to explore ANYWHERE across Solus 3 (Earth) was a rare and sign of how much the other Clans RESPECTED her. IF some of their ‘ explorers’ had discovered or sought advice and more? They knew she would give them the benefit of her knowledge. An ORACLE of wisdom. FORESIGHT.
True once or twice some of her ‘ DISCOVERIES’ had put her into dangerous situations, her health and well being put at risk from ANCIENT traps and ? They did exist.. within some of the often designated TEMPLE sites.. though Symp hated those who called them that.. More meeting places where minds could mix, could exchange KNOWLEDGE.
Applying a fine dust to protect her skin from UV rays but also mites, ticks and other nasties.. Her skin tingled as she shook to dislodge some of it. The dispersal could be irritating as it shifted into parts of her body that she had NO desire for it to lodge.. Unbuckling her top to shake out the loose particles.. revealing her ample cleavage did not bother her in the least..
NO males around.. BUT her sense that she had eyes on her.. A voice, a presence .. Nodu?? This whoever it was had suddenly appeared, NOT physically but deep within her subconscious.. IF some, might have had difficulties with such it did not bother her. Listening to voices, seeing things often unexplainable ?
She had to locate a PORTAL.. A SEMPERU PORTEI.. what form that might take, at this moment in time she did not know. BUT Nodu had told her she would recognise it for what it was the moment she saw it.. To neutralse it? Now that would be interesting.
The site she was about to visit was one she had received a lot of data about. An implant into her mindfulness of and fuelled desires to find that place; following the instructions she now stood atop the mountain ..
