 This blog page (below) has Part 15 of my Decade in Review (DiR, see Part 1). All of the blog posts in this series have titles that contain several unusual characters. This blog post is called "ℱemtozoan ǞḆꞒD*" because it summarizes the last six months of science fiction story writing for my Decade in Review (DiR) and end with a May 11, 2025 blog post called "Femtozoan Transplantation" which has the final chapter of the story "D*". 

In this Decade in Review (DiR) I am exploring AI-generated images as alternative illustrations for my old science fiction stories. I'm using software such as Whisk, WOMBO Dream, and Leonardo to generate updated story illustrations. An example of an AI-generated image is shown to the right in Figure 1. In the science fiction story "D*", Aymy Travmyn becomes the center of attention for Tyhry as Tyhry seeks to understand how her analogue in the Asimov Reality discovered negative mass hierions.

Tyhry's study of Aymy and Tyna ultimately allows Tyhry to realize that she is not a biological organism; she is an artificial life form that while being composed of femtobot components is able to grow and develop and pass through fetal and childhood growth stages just like a biological human being. Aymy gives birth to a daughter, Tyna, and it is Tyna who first realizes that she is an artificial life form.

The "D" of the story title "D*" is Deuterium and D* is "light deuterium", an exotic substance which includes an anti-gravity hierion in its atomic nucleus. That anti-gravity hierion can form special bonds (weavons) to up quarks inside atomic nuclei (see the image to the left).

tryp'At hermaphrodite

Tyna's story begins in the year 3553 when she is born on Earth at a time when humans have for centuries been spreading to the habitable exoplanets of the Galaxy. Soon after her birth, Tyna's mother, Aymy, moves to the planet Alphanor. Aymy has some telepathic ability and from a very early stage of Aymy's pregnancy, Tyna is linked to her mother by a synapex connection. This allows Tyna's mind to develop at a rapid pace and to fully express its telepathic potential.

Aymy studies mathematics at Sea Province University where she lives with fellow students Anyta Klemmer and Vart Othing. In Part 2 of the science fiction story "D*", the robot Maz is introduced as the household robotic assistant for Aymy, Anyta and Vart. Maz was constructed on the planet Cybex, a world developed by the Jarnell Corporation for their robotics research program. 

The infite experiments.

Aymy is indentured to the Jarnell Corporation and under contract to produce 8 children, the first of which is Tyna.

Near the end of Part 2 of "D*", Tyhry reveals herself to Anyta. In Part 3 of "D*", Tyhry takes a copy of Anyta into the Ekcolir Reality. Tyhry provides Anyta with infites that help Anyta adjust to her new existence. Tyhry discovers that although Anyta had been shaped into the bodily form of a conventional human woman, she had a tryp'At style cervical nerve that could form synapex connections to her nervous system and also receptors for tryp'At sex hormones. Tyhry believes that her medical nanites could re-shape Anyta's body and allow her to attain her genetically-programmed tryp'At hermahrodite form.

Tyna age 4

In Part 4 of "D*", Tyna has grown into a precocious child, then Tyhry enters into the Asimov Reality Simulation in order to talk to Tyna. With the help of infites, Tyna soon realizes that Tyhry is an older copy of herself, an analogue, visiting from another Reality.

When a Marda replicoid sees Tyna in the nanite laboratory, she scolds Tyhry, "I can't believe you took this little girl away from her family." However, Tyhry has already brought a copy of Aymy into the Ekcolir Reality. Tyna insists on experimenting with Tyhry's medical nanites to recover her tryp'At physical features.

In Part 5 of the science fiction story "D*", Sedrover returns to Earth after discovering that artificial planets of the Phari Network do not exist in the Ekcolir Reality. 

Telepathy breeding project.

Tyhry has been able to alter Tyna's body structure, but mysteriously, Tyhry cannot isolate any of Tyna's femtobot components. Now Tyhry wants to confront Manny the bumpha at the time when Manny first meets with the adult Tyna in the Asimov Reality.

Manny tells Tyna that Dr. Systo of the Jarnell Corporation Eugenics Program will soon invite Tyna to visit her home. "She's a high official of the Jarnell Corporation." At this point in time, Tyna of the Asimov Reality has recovered her tryp'At body features. Dr. Systo is interested in having Tyna mix her tryp'At genes with Asterothrope genes as part of the Jarnell Corporation telepath breeding program.

Tyhry goes along to Dr. Systo's home along with Tyna's family. Tyhry meets Dr. Systo's husband, Marky, who has large numbers of Asterothrope gene patterns. 

Programmable femtobots from Sadal Suud 4.

In Part 6 of "D*", readers learn that Tyna's father, Vart (a physicist) led a research mission to Ysoto-5HD, a planet where about 20% of the hydrogen in its oceans in the form of D* and the native life forms metabolize D*. 

During that mission, Tyna met Largo Johns, the only other know Asterothrope male in the galaxy besides Marky. Largo made Tyna aware of the existence of programming femtobots, which eventually led Tyna towards discovering how to reprogram the femtobots of her own body.

Releasing femtozoans.

Now, Tyna is planning on visiting Earth to investigate the 'myth' that Eternity is a place that exists within a space-time bubble in the Hierion Domain. When altering her body structure, Tyna was able to telepathically communicate with her femtozoan and learn about Eternity.

In Part 7 of "D*", Tyhry brings a copy of the 20-year-old Tyna into the Ekcolir Reality. That copy of Tyna then explains how she was able to use technology available in the Asimov Reality to reprogram her body's femtobot components, allowing her to recover her tryp'At body form.

During the research mission to Ysoto-5HD, Largo Johns and the robot Ny demonstrate to Tyna how it is possible to isolate femtobots from Largo's body. Tyna immediately insists on performing an experiment during which the femtobots from Largo successfully integrate into Tyna's body in the form of a long, pointed tryp'At ear.

Tyna tells Tyhry, "Eventually, I got access to Jarnell Corporation hierion probe technology and learned how to alter my body. I was able to reprogram my femtobots and recover my tryp'At features."

In Part 8 of "D*", Tyhry follows Tyna to Earth in the Asimov Reality Simulation. Tyna hopes to find some Grendels who can tell Tyna about Eternity. Tyhry hopes to get help from the Grendels to reprogram femtobots.

Tyhry, Mylana, Tyna and Elyrix in Arizona.

Tyna is going to Arizona to investigate rumors of a Grendel keep. On the way there, Elyrix the Grendel appears. Tyna knew Elyrix as her mother's "personal Grendel", but Elyrix has been guiding Tyna's life for the past 10 years and is the source of Tyna's belief that there is a Grendel keep in Arizona.

In Part 9 of "D*", Elyrix can telepathically sense that Tyhry is interested in teleportation technology. 

Inside the long-range teleportation facility.

Elyrix takes Tyhry to the long-range teleportation station under Mt. Picachu. Tyhry is teleported to Ver'la in the Galactic Core. Tyhry meets the remnant artificial life-form of a Nereid who provides Tyhry with some programmable femtobots.

Tyhry quickly demonstrates to herself that she has the body of a femtobot replicoid, composed of femtobot components and the Nereid programmable nanites allow Tyhry to instantly alter her bodily form. Tyhry realizes that she can pass into Eternity by means of an hierion femtotube.

Tyhry's femtozoan in Nanoville.

In Part 10 of "D*", Tyhry visits Observer Base in the Ekcolir Reality. She meets Nyz the Grendel who advises Tyhry to release her femtozoan. Tyhry's femtozoan is able to enter Grean's workshop.

In Part 11 of "D*", Tyhry reaches Observer Base in the Final Reality and repairs the teleportation equipment. She teleports her parents to the Writers Block, which her father has long wanted to visit.

Tyhry goes to see the HySe, an interstellar spaceship that has been constructed at Observer Base. The question still remains: under the new physical laws of the Final Reality, can hadronic matter be moved through space at faster-than-light speeds?

In Part 12 of "D*", Tyhry confirms that the Intersplit spaceship drive can function to move hadronic matter through space at faster-than-light speeds. It is hinted that the daughter of Tyna and Mylana (Amany) and Marda's son Brak will found a new civilization of complete telepaths on a distant exoplanet.

One of the reasons for making this Decade in Review (DiR) was to identify science fiction stories from the past ten years that were not completed. In some cases, while writing one story, a new story idea popped into my head and became of greater interest, forcing me to pause the development of the first story. Here at the wikifiction blog, the only real 'rule' is to have fun, so I have no problem putting on hold one story writing project when I become interested in something else.

Back in 2015, I was shifting from my on-going work on the highly structured Exode pentalogy to a more free-form story writing mode where each wikifiction blog post could be the beginning of a new story. In once sense "wikifiction" means "quick fiction". In fact, the novels of the Exode pentalogy had become hard work as I tried to knit together the events and personalities that dominated the various Realities of Earth's Reality Chain.

of L2 - by Whisk.

 One of the ways that I liberated myself from the drudgery of completing the Exode pentalogy was to pretend that Eddy wanted to hide his unusual family from the world. Eddy had to remove his blog from the internet. Since Eddy is my alter-ego, I could tell myself that it made perfect sense to leave the Exode pentalogy incomplete since Eddy had been forced to stop publishing his blog.

 Fan-fiction.The other liberating force was my interest in fan-fiction. As seen near the top right corner in Figure 2, in 2015 I wrote several fan-fiction stories such as "Star Trek: Galactic Core" and "I Want To Re-imagine" that allowed my mind to wander away from the confines of the Exode pentalogy.

The single most important science fiction story writing innovation that came to dominate the past ten years of my story writing is the idea that many "science fiction stories" in our Reality (the Final Reality) are based on real world events from the previous Realities of Deep Time. In particular, in the Foundation Reality, there was a Galactic Empire similar to the one depicted in Isaac Asimov's Foundation stories. Similarly, the future space age of Earth in the Asimov Reality was similar to what Jack Vance depicted in his stories about humans who has spread through the galaxy. And most recently, I realized that the future of the Ekcolir Reality could be similar to the future that was depicted in the Star Trek fictional universe.
