Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Panel 1
Cut back to 'the present' in Alyss's living room. Alyss is curled up in her chair, as Hugo and Murphy continue their narration.
Alyss: Ha-ha! Eithne was always a head-strong little scamp. I'm glad you shut her down.
Murphy: Well, nobody truly shuts Eithne down ...
Panel 2
Cut to: the control room on the starship. Now all three, Eithne, Murphy and Hugo, are seated in chairs.
Eithne: I don't see why we have to do another shake-down cruise. I fixed all the problems we had with the last ship.
Murphy: And perhaps introduced new problems in the redesign.
Hugo: For all we know it was a ship systems-failure that killed us previously.
Panel 3
Eithne looks thoughtful.
Eithne: I doubt it, but … suppose your previous selves weren't killed, just stranded?
Murphy: I've been wondering about that, too.
Hugo: There's an old Australian saying that if you walk about long enough, you'll find yourself.
