In my previous two blog posts, I've explored some ideas for a prelude to
A Search Beyond. I've now written most of that prelude as an introduction to
Grean and "
the last replicoid", Azynov.
Double Agent
I made an interesting discovery while working on "
Observer Base":
Sachiz the
tryp'At is the mother of
Roz.
I've also been investigating the possibility that Roz is not actually the daughter of Ayash Shipdesqi and Sachiz.
Zeta has suggested that Roz is actually a clone of Sachiz. I'm not sure what the implications are of Roz being a
clone of Sachiz.
With her connections into the
Writers Block,
Yōd confirms that Ayash Shipdesqi published some science fiction stories in a past Reality, just before the
Final Reality. Those stories were apparently based on a mysterious manuscript, written by Sachiz and left behind on Earth after she was taken to
Observer Base in 1947.
Buld Reality
For many years I imagined that the
Buld Reality was the Final Reality. However, there is evidence of some "
microchanges" that were made to the Buld Reality just before the Final Reality came into existence.
According to Yōd, stories written by Ayash Shipdesqi (using various pen names) were all removed from Earth's timeline just before time travel ended and we became trapped in the Final Reality. Stories such as "The Replicoid Intervention" and Ayash's novel,
The Azynov Touch, simply revealed too much about Grean and how the Final Reality was brought into existence.
Zeta does not believe that Sachiz, as a tryp'At living on Earth in 1947, could possibly have known about the existence of Azynov the
replicoid (Azynov was created in 1971). However, I must believe that at some point in time, both Grean and
Trysta viewed the future of the Final Reality. Would either of them have told Sachiz about the future? Maybe not.
That leaves
R. Gohrlay as the remaining possible information conduit to Sachiz. However, there have been no confirmed reports of R. Gohrlay continuing to operate on Earth or anywhere in our galaxy since the time when Grean took possession of Observer Base.
However, I like the hypothesis that R. Gohrlay created the tryp'At, so it may be that Sachiz came to know the future because of her connections to R. Gohrlay. Did R. Gohrlay have a chance, just before the Final Reality, to use her rather primitive
Reality Viewing technology to peer into the Final Reality?
