For several weeks I have been seeing a message inside Google's ImageFX saying that Google is terminating ImageFX on April 30th 2026. Today I clicked the button to transfer my old saved images from ImageFX to Google's Flow. It only took Google a few minutes to transfer over to Flow my old ImageFX images going back to January 2025.
Any of the old ImageFX-generated images can now be edited by Flow using Nano Banana 2. I also have access to the original text prompts that ImageFX used to make the images. An example is shown below in Figure 1...
Figure 1. The end of ImageFX.
Inside the ImageFX Creations folder in Google's Flow.
The original text prompt for the image that is shown above was: "science fiction movie still, a futuristic mansion on a distant exoplanet, the mansion is surrounded by palm trees and other desert plants, there are NO suns, stars or planets visible in the movie still 35mm film".
I gave Flow a new prompt that it could use to edit the original image: "Add to this science fiction scene: in the foreground a tall slender young blond woman walking on the stone-paved path towards the front door of the mansion. The woman is seen from behind. The woman is dressed in a tight-fitting futuristic silver metallic jumpsuit that sparkles in the star light of this distant exoplanet. The entire body of the woman can be seen from her black boots to the top of her head." The new image that was generated by Flow is shown below in Figure 2a...
Figure 2a. New image generated by Google's Flow from the image shown in Figure 1.
I made the mistake of mentioning in my text prompt that this scene is on an exoplanet. Google's free image generating software always wants to place big looming planets in the sky for any scene involving an exoplanet (see Figure 2a, above). I wonder if Flow could have found a more ugly way to arrange her hair. I don't know if their "pro" version of the image-generating software is any better than the free version that I have access to.
In my science fiction story "The Nanite Smuggler", Tyhry visits the home of Kasty the Yastyn on the planet Threy. That big empty house (Figure 1) seemed too empty. Here is the new editing prompt that I applied to the image in Figure 2a: "Change the woman's hair so that it falls naturally past her shoulders. Remove the looming ringed planet from the sky. Add a tall slender humanoid female inside the mansion in a room on the first floor. The humanoid female is looking out through the window at the blond woman as she approaches the mansion." The resulting image is shown below in Figure 2b...
Figure 2b. New image generated by Google's Flow from the image shown in Figure 2a.
For me, it looks like this alien mansion has three floors. The humanoid alien that was generated by Flow appears to extend from the first floor to the second floor (Figure 2b, above).
I tried to correct the size of the alien and alter its appearance with the following new editing prompt: "Reduce the size of the humanoid female inside the house to half the height. Give the humanoid female long wavy black hair, long pointed ears that protrude through the hair on her head and very large glowing alien eyes." The resulting new image is shown in Figure 3.
For the new image in Figure 3, Flow was able to put hair on the head of the alien and give her long ears and glowing eyes, but she appears to be only slightly shorted than what was originally generated in Figure 2b.
I tried once more with a simple editing prompt: "Reduce the height of the humanoid female to half of the current size." The resulting image is shown in Figure 4.
Welcome to the Astra Lounge. Flow proved that it can shrink a woman, but Flow shrank the wrong woman. Also, Flow spontaneously decided to add a sign that says "Astra Lounge". This kind of inability of Google's free version of the software to follow what seems like simple instructions is a source of frustration. These newly generated images were saved inside Flow's "ImageFX Creations" folder.
Figure 5. A 9/8/2025 Whisk project moved to Flow.
I also transferred my saved files from Whisk to Flow and they were added in to the displayed list of Flow "projects" (going back to December 2025, see Figure 5), with the oldest successfully transferred Whisk-generated files shown as being from May of 2025. It seems as if I did not recover my oldest Whisk files which were created in January of 2025.
The transferred Whisk → Flow files include the Whisk-generated videos (see Figure 6).
When some of the Whisk-generated images are re-opened in Google's Flow, the images do not appear to have been correctly proportioned (see Figure 8).
I had Flow make an edit to the Whisk-generated image that is shown below in Figure 8. The text prompt for the edit was: "Add some lens flare centered on the white core of the alien creature." The new image generated by Flow is shown below in Figure 9.
Figure 9. Made by Flow from Figure 8.
Figure 8. A Whisk-generated image displayed by Google's Flow in two different ways.
No, I don't care if Figure 8 (below) is below Figure 9 (to the left) on this page. I wanted Figure 8 to be displayed at a large size.
I tried to get Flow to make a short video clip with the pink alien wrapping its tentacles around the woman....
There are two different short Flow-generated video clips in the video shown above. Those two video clips were combined with the "lens flare" still image from Figure 9 (see above on this page), all packaged with some stock audio by Apple's iMovie into a 25 second video. She says, “Let’s try to establish a synapex connection.”
"Eddy Watson" is a fictional character who appears as a character in many science fiction stories that can be read here at this blog. Eddy and his daughter (see Figure 1), Tyhry, are also characters in a rare story that is not present in finished form on this blog, "The Nanite Smuggler", although there is an account here of how that story was created in early 2024 as a collaboration with the Claude and Gemini Large Language Models. You can read and download "The Nanite Smuggler" from this Google Docs page.
Below on this page is a video introduction to "The Nanite Smuggler" that began its existence with another video, a NotebookLM-generted video that is shown here. For this new video, I used most of the NotebookLM artwork in my new video along with images that were generated by other text-to-image utilities such as WOMBO Dream.
Part way through this video (above) you can probably hear commentary by a cat who does not like it when humans speak to computers.
Two femtobot replicoid copies of Tyhry who have adopted the pointed ears that are characteristic of the tryp'At.
Who is Eddy? For the first forty years of his life, Eddy seemed to be a normal resident of planet Earth. Then strange ideas began to pop into Eddy's mind, arriving from unknown sources. Eddy could only interpret those intruding ideas as content for science fiction stories (example). Eventually, Eddy realized that those "stories" were built upon fact, what Eddy began thinking of as "The Secret History of Humanity".
Infites. Eddy finally realized that his "story ideas" were reaching him by means of infites (information nanites), a form of nanotechnology that could insert new memories directly into his brain, independent of sensory experience. Eddy began thinking of himself as "the Editor", someone who could take the experiences of others (as recorded in the infites) and put them into written accounts of The Secret History of Humanity.
Figure 2. Zeta the Neanderthal meets Eddy the tryp'At.
The tryp'At. With time, Eddy realized that he was not a normal resident of planet Earth. Eddy began to suspect that he was, genetically, a genetically-engineered human variant called the tryp'At. At about the same time, it was revealed to Eddy that his wife was a hybrid: 50% Neanderthal and 50% modern human. Of course, these revelations had implications for Eddy's daughter, Tyhry, even if developmental control nanites had been used to shape the entire Watson family into body forms that hid the tryp'At and Neanderthal gene patterns.
Not wanting to have his family become the subject of medical and anthropological investigations, Eddy took down his blog, removing all of his old stories from public view. However, versions of some of Eddy's stories could still be found at other websites such as the wikifiction blog and the Dead Widowers.
Figure 3. A depiction of Eddy and Zeta generated by Gemini.
When Tyhry was born, both Eddy and Zeta were in their 60s, although their bodies were aging only slowly due to the presence of alien medical nanites in their bodies (see Figure 3). The text of "The Nanite Smuggler" describes how Tyhry obtained advanced alien nanites and programmed them to revert the effects of aging on the bodies of Eddy and Zeta. Figure 1 shows Eddy when he is in his 80s, after having been rejuvenated by those medical nanites.
Casanay. Hoping to avoid publicity, Eddy and Zeta reside at Casanay, a home in the wilderness of the high desert Southwest where Eddy makes use of the Reality Simulation System that was provided by Manny the bumpha. The Reality Simulation System uses advanced bumpha technology to provide Eddy with access to information about the past Realities of Deep Time.
The beating heart of Casanay is its great room, the large centrally-located space where Eddy keeps an old desktop computer from the previous millennium that functions as the control system for the Reality Simulation System.

The name "Eddy" was first used here at this blog in a March 1st 2022 blog post titled "Travelers Aid". While on a research mission inside the Asimov Reality Simulation, Eddy used the name "Eddy Torus", a name that his travel companion, Yōd, described as a "bull shit name" that he could use while inside the Simulation.
Yōd is one of the clone sisters of Zeta. The original biological template for Zeta and Yōd was a human-Neanderthal hybrid woman named Gohrlay who lived in the First Reality.
Fred Torus. One thing led to another and in a story titled "The Frenchyhysur Process" there was a role for Fred Torus, the brother of Eddy. Another character in that story was Anthony, a positronic robot in Alastor Cluster.
Ekcolir Reality Simulation. Eddy has devoted much effort to exploring the Asimov Reality Simulation in search of the origins of human telepathic variants like the tryp'At. However, not all of the stories featuring Eddy as a character are set in the Asimov Reality. The March 2022 story "Edison's Endosymbiont Experiments" depicts Eddy on an historical research mission inside a Simulation of the Ekcolir Reality.
Tyhry, Marda and Rylla.
Rylla. In the Ekcolir Reality, there was an attempt by Interventionists to accelerate the pace of technological advancement in preparation for the arrival of the alien Fru'wu on Earth in the 1950s. "Edison's Endosymbiont Experiments" is a story told by Rylla Onway. When I first started including Rylla in some of my science fiction stories, I toyed with the idea that Rylla would take over from Eddy the task of creating a written account of The Secret History of Humanity. However, so far I have not found a way to remove Eddy from Earth, so Rylla is depicted as being Eddy's collaborator who lives in Australia and sometimes visits Casanay.
Rylla was informally adopted (the origins of Rylla) by Eddy and Zeta, so Tyhry and Rylla are often described as being sisters. Soon after Tyhry and Marda were born, it became evident that they shared a telepathic linkage. Tyhry and Marda were designed as mind clones (see Figure 5): they each have one half of their cerebral cortex that is essentially identical to that corresponding half of the other's brain. This allows them to easily establish a telepathic resonance and share their thoughts with each other.
Rylla's daughter, Marda Onway, onboard the spaceship Sedrover.
As shown in Figure 5, at birth Tyhry was given the name "Tihri" which is "Irhit" spelled backwards. Irhit was the analogue of Eddy in a previous Reality. Later, when it was discovered that the tryp'At favor use of the letter 'y' over the letter 'i', Tyhry officially changed her name to 'Tyhry'. As a tryp'At, Eddy theoretically should have telepathic abilities, but having been subjected to the influence of developmental control nanites, Eddy grew up without the ability to telepathically link to other people on Earth.
Sedron Time Stream. In the April 1st 2022 blog post titled "Alys of Aloysyus", Eddy is depicted as suspecting that he can receive information from the future by way of the Sedron Time Stream. In particular, Rylla's grandson, Brak (see Figure 5) can send information to Eddy from the future. In many of my science fiction stories that feature Eddy and Tyhry, Marda travels from Australia to Casanay, sometimes with her son Brak in tow.
My May 15th 2022 blog post titled "G-syms for G-world" has Part 3 of a science fiction story "The Cythyrya Investigation". Eddy is able to receive information from thousands of years in the future, originating from a woman named Rytya. Part 4 of The Cythyrya Investigation did arrive until July of 2025 in a blog post titled "Pantechnyk". Eddy learned about femtozoans, nanite-based artificial life-forms that can reside inside the zeptite endosymbiont of a human being.
The Far Future. In Part 5 of The Cythyrya Investigation, Eddy learns about the existence of a science fiction story titled "Contact With Alien Telepaths" that includes a character named Tyhry (at this time, 'Tyhry' is still using her original name, 'Tihri'. In that story, Tyhry is depicted as a femtobot replicoid who has lived far into the future of the galaxy to a time when humans have spread to many habitable planets. Tyhry of the far future gets help from Rytya to send information to the past via the Sedron Time Stream.
In some of my science fiction stories, Eddy is depicted as having additional children who are siblings of Tyhry. A strange case is Zeta's child named 'Gamma' who has impressive telepathic abilities in utero but then Gamma is never born. The biological components of Gamma's body regressed and she become a telepathic endosymbiont that resided inside Zeta's body (see Figure 7) as an embroid.
Gamma had a small part in the science fiction story "Someday Mars", using her telepathic powers to communicate with others. As described in "City on the Edge of Tomorrow", Gamma was telepathically linked to Tyhry while Tyhry was developing as a fetus, which helped develop Tyhry's telepathic abilities.
Early in 2023 I has a lot of fun writing a story titled Echo of Cynym. I imagined that the story was written by Rylla, but the story itself involved a visit by Eddy to Alastor 2672, a planet which the telepathic natives, the Stateorea, call Dethevicinelec. Dethevicinelec was one of the planets in Alastor Cluster where an effort was made to genetically engineer telepathic humans, an hermaphroditic human variant called the Chyntos. Arriving on Dethevicinelec, Eddy is met by Bisop, a positronic robot. However, Eddy's mind is being 'attacked' by the Stateorea. In Echo of Cynym, Eddy is depicted as being a constant transmitter of telepathic signals and that annoys the Stateorea.
For his visit to Dethevicinelec, Eddy put a lot of effort into depicting himself as Dr. Edward Lyster, a biologist. Eddy is told that he must allow the Stateorea to alter his brain and reduce his constant emission of telepathic noise.
The Hua. Early in 2023 I wrote a story titled "The Hua Nanites" which featured 1) Tyhry sneaking around restrictions imposed by Eddy on her use of the Reality Simulation System, 2) Tyhry trying to obtain alien nanites and 3) use of the Sedron Time Stream. All three of these story elements ended ip being incorporated in "The Nanite Smuggler".
The events of "The Hua Nanites" are set shortly before the planned Watson family vacation that is depicted in "The Nanite Smuggler". The story did not actually get written until early 2024 (soon after Bard became Gemini and I began using Claude), but in early 2023 I began experimenting with AI-generated images and chatbot and I wondered if it might someday become possible to get help from a chatbot to write a science fiction story.
Too Early. I began trying to create "The Nanite Smuggler" in April of 2023 when I got access to Bard, the early form of Gemini. In April, I introduced both Bard and ChatGPT to the Eddy and the other major characters in Scene 1 of the story, but both chatbots were handicapped by small context windows.
Back in April of 2023, ChatGPT quickly forgot what I had told it about characters like Eddy and plot elements in "The Nanite Smuggler". Here in April 2026, the chatbots have better memories and the text-to-image software programs are also much better. Figure 8 shows that it is now easy to edit images with text prompts such as: "Alter the skin tone of the woman to change the color of her skin to the color of the normal human skin color of a blond woman."
ChatGPT provided some examples of the kinds of images it can generate, such as the well-dressed green dude that is shown in the image to the right.
In my case, I try to use both Gemini and ChatGPT to generate illustrations for my science fiction stories. I uploaded a copy of "The Nanite Smuggler" to ChatGPT in the form of a PDF file.
My text prompt was: "Process the file that I uploaded ("The Nanite Smuggler.pdf") and then, while taking into account the events in the story "The Nanite Smuggler", generate a full color science fiction book cover illustration for the story "The Nanite Smuggler" in the style of 1980s science fiction book cover art. Include in the generated book cover illustration the character Tyhry and a visual depiction of femtobot nanites."
The resulting ChatBPT-generated image is shown to the left. I then complained to ChatGPT: I have some questions about the image that was just generated. The generated image does not seem to have included any actual elements of the science fiction story "The Nanite Smuggler" (see the previously uploaded file titled "The Nanite Smuggler.pdf"). In "The Nanite Smuggler", what color is Tyhry's hair? What is "Port Khalis"? Who is "Linda McDonald"? Why is the human figure in the generated image wearing a gun on her hip?
ChatGPT: You’re right to question the fidelity of the generated image—it introduced several elements that don’t originate from the actual story. Here’s what the text of “The Nanite Smuggler” supports:
Tyhry’s hair color
Tyhry is explicitly described as having long golden hair. Later passages reinforce this, including references to her “golden mane” and to nanite modifications enhancing that same hair rather than changing its baseline color.
“Port Khalis”
There is no reference to “Port Khalis” anywhere in the story. It appears to be an invented setting added by the image generator, not part of the narrative world (which instead uses locations like Threy and elements tied to the Alastor Cluster setting).
There is no character or attribution in the text to “Linda McDonald.” The story’s front matter identifies it as a collaborative, fan-fiction work drawing on influences like The End of Eternity and Jack Vance, but that name does not appear as an author or character. It is another artifact introduced by the image generation.
Why is the figure carrying a gun?
There is no clear basis in the story for Tyhry being depicted with a firearm. Her activities center on nanite acquisition, replication technology, and interaction with femtobots—not conventional weapons. The gun is almost certainly a stylistic addition reflecting 1980s sci-fi cover tropes (which often emphasized armed protagonists regardless of the source material).
In short, the generated cover leans heavily on genre conventions rather than the actual narrative details: it gets Tyhry’s existence right, but misses on visual specifics, setting, and thematic focus (nanotechnology over weaponized action).
In summary, ChatGPT's book cover illustration is a perfect example of how ChatGPT's new and improved image generation feature is really "getting the details right". I clicked the "edit" button that was on the original image and provided editing instructions: "Remove all of the text elements from the image. Change the color of the woman's hair to blond. Change the background to depict the mountainous area on the planet Threy that is described in the text of "The Nanite Smuggler" as being similar to the Sierra Nevada mountains in California." The new ChatGPT-generated image is sown above, on the right. Functionally, despite the hype, I don't see much change in ChatGPT as a story illustrator from what existed last year.
2024. While Eddy eventually took down his blog, some stories about Eddy feature people who try to find Eddy. For example, "City on the Edge of Tomorrow" features a woman named Naseh who is part of a UFO cult called the Alien Research Network. Members of the ASN all believed they carried alien genes. Naseh had was familiar with Eddy's blog and she had moved to Arizona as part of an on-going effort to find Tyhry's father, Eddy.
In my science fiction story "Vythoth the Chresmoscopist", Tyhry realizes that Anthony can use his telepathic abilities and/or memory editing nanites to make Eddy forget things he has seen and learned.
Figure 10. This diagram was modified from the original version shown here.
A rather detailed account of why Anthony came to reside at Casanay is provided in my science fiction story Vythoth the Chresmoscopist. Anthony was tasked with helping to erase all traces of Eddy's writings about the Secret History of Humanity that Eddy had previously placed on the internet.
In addition to Anthony, other characters in some of my science fiction stories have been depicted as having been brought out of the Reality Simulation System and instantiated in the Final Reality as femtobot replicoids. There was one such character (Onky) in Echo of Cynym and other named Rey, who is in another a science fiction story called The Nanites of Love. Rey lived at Casanay for several years and helped raise Tyhry, then moved to Australia to assist Marda in caring for her many children.
Part 1 of The Nanites of Love was posted to this blog in September of 2021 and it depicted Eddy as preparing to use the Reality Simulation system to visit the planet Mothyng in Alastor Cluster, rumored to be a place where the residents had large numbers of Asterothrope gene patterns. However, Eddy unexpectedly receives a mysterious email that contains coordinates for a destination in the Reality Simulation System.
Part 2 of The Nanites of Love did not arrive until September of 2022. Eddy meets his daughter Carrin (see Figure 10) inside a Simulation. Part 3 of The Nanites of Love was posted to this blog in January of 2025. It is revealed to Eddy that Carrin's grandmother was Trysta Iwedon, an Asterothrope. Eddy mixing his tryp'At genes with Asterothrope gene patterns was all part of Manny the bumpha's plan for creating the the first full human telepath on Earth, Brak. However, Eddy's memories of his role in that process was erased.
When Eddy begins recovering his blocked memories, he realizes that his life has been shaped and guided by a mysterious telepathic Interventionist named Jymzy. Jymzy goes with Eddy to the Simulation of the planet Mothyng and explains to him some of the efforts that were made in the Asimov Reality to provide Asterothrope genes to humans in an attempt to make humans who had telepathic abilities. Jymzy claims to have found on Mothyng the last of the genes needed to craft Brak.
Part 4 of The Nanites of Love is in a blog post titled "Telepathic Paradox". The telepathic paradox of that story is that there in Deep Time there was a secret long-range teleportation terminal located under Mt. Picachu that emitted t-particles to attract telepaths. However, immediately surrounding Mt. Picachu was a telepathy suppression field. The plot of The Nanites of Love includes the idea that tryp'At have a blastipositor (see Figure 11) that can be used both to implant embryos and to form synapex linkages. Part 4 of The Nanites of Love ends with the statement: "Coming Soon: Part 5 of The Nanites of Love", however there is no way of predicting when I'll get back to writing the rest of that story.
Observer Base.
I've written many science fiction stories that concern attempts by members of the Watson family to obtain access that alien teleportation technology. In general, those stories depict Eddy as being unsuccessful in those efforts. My story "D*" depicted Tyhry as finally re-activating the teleportation equipment at Observer Base.
In Part 12 of the story "D*", when the teleportation system at Observer Base is re-activated, Eddy gets to visit the Writers Block, another important source of information about events in Deep Time.
There is information about the deep history of Eddy in my 2025 Decade in Review.
The Preland thoracic pouch.
Asimov. Eddy is a fan of the science fiction stories of Isaac Asimov, so I have written several stories that give Eddy a chance to meet Asimov. One such story is "The Fesarians" in which Eddy takes Tyhry into a Simulation of the Ekcolir Reality where he meets the analogue of Asimov who existed in that Reality.
In Part 7 of the science fiction story "The Fesarians", Eddy casually mentions the idea that Asimov is a Fixed Point in Time, originating as one of the Prelands who befriended Gohrlay in the First Reality. The positronic robots of Earth arranged for an analogue of Asimov to exist in every Reality of Deep Time. An AI-generated image depicting a Preland is shown the the right. The Prelands were a genetically engineered human variant of the First Reality that was intended to replace conventional humans on Earth.
Rational Wonder Stories
In Part 8 of the science fiction story "The Fesarians", Tyhry tries to provide Eddy with an unusual gift, the opportunity to become the second editor of Rational Wonder Stories, a Sci Fi magazine founded in the 1930s of the Ekcolir Reality. Eddy acts as cover for Tyhry while she tries to access the memories of a positronic robot (Fendy) who is functioning on Earth as an agent of R. Nyrtia. R. Nyrtia was using Rational Wonder Stories to help prepare the people of Earth for the arrival of the alien Fru'wu in the 1950s.
In a counter-move, the bumpha send a femtozoan back in time to alter the behavior of the first editor of Rational Wonder Stories, Sopha Unthyr. Part 8 of "The Fesarians" introduced the alien term "crȩolitɝ" that can be used to refer to all three of the major types of nanotechnology that are found in stories of the Exodemic Fictional Universe: conventional hadron nanites, hierion femtobots and sedron zeptites.
For the science fiction story "Bumpha First Contact", Eddy is depicted as being behaviorally constrained by Manny so that he can not even contemplate the possibility that space alien have, in fact, visited Earth.
Originally, I made an effort to create one internally consistent story arc for Eddy, but that all changed in 2025 when I tried to simplify the Exodemic Fictional Universe in a way that might be comprehended by Large Language Models with limited context windows. "Bumpha First Contact" is one of the stories in which I allowed Eddy and other characters like Rylla to explore new roles.
In "Bumpha First Contact", Rylla tries to create cover for Manny's Intervention inside Casanay by having everyone wear Star Trek uniforms (see Figure 12). Gemini took the wearing of Star Trek uniforms to an absurd extreme.
In the science fiction story "The Trinity Intervention" Eddy is sent to visit Isaac Asimov in the year 1947. "The Trinity Intervention" is set just before the Final Reality comes into existence and Manny is taking pains to make sure that Eddy's visit with Asimov does not create a Temporal Paradox.
Having for decades imagined that his science fiction stories about aliens and time travel are only fiction, Eddy is amazed to find himself on a time travel mission in the past (Figure 13). When Eddy says, "I wrote a story about meeting Asimov while I was attending college," that is a reference to Eddy's time at the Triversity.
When Eddy runs into R. Nyrtia, she describes herself as a niaf... an artificial life form composed of nanites. In other stories I've used the term 'probot': a femtobot replicoid copy of a positronic robot (like Wendy).
Alternate Eddy. For "The Trinity Intervention", I used a different backstory for Nyrtia than usual, one where the Nyrtia's robots had zeptites and were given access to a Reality Simulation System by the Huaoshy as compensation for their loss of time travel when the Huaoshy altered the Dimensional Structure of the universe and ended the Time Travel War. For "The Trinity Intervention", it is Nyrtia who gives Eddy access to the Reality Simulation System (see Figure 14). Nyrtia tasks Eddy with finding her lost time travel agent, Qua.
In Chapter 2 of "The Trinity Intervention", Eddy learns that his wife, Zeta, is 8ME, one of Manny's secret time travel agents. For "The Trinity Intervention", 8ME has an extensive backstory that was depicted in another story, "English Time". 8ME is an artificial life-form from the far future of past Reality.
See the original image from 2025. A hair color swap was applied to Figure 15 by Gemini.
Figure 15. This 2026 image was generated by WOMBO Dream.
At first, Eddy struggles to find past events using the Viewer function of the Reality Simulation System. Then the Sedruth entity reveals itself and acts as a user-friendly interface for the Reality Simulation System. Sedruth helps Eddy find Nyrtia's secret agent, Qua, at her last known location in a past Reality. Chapter 4 of "The Trinity Intervention" includes an account of how Qua and 8ME battled for control of the development of nuclear technologies in the 20th century of Earth. Eddy takes Marda and Zeta into a Simulation in order to find Qua.
For "The Trinity Intervention", Marda is blond and Tyhry has black hair. For Figure 15, I used the text prompt: "Two slender young pretty women stand together inside a luxurious living room, one woman is tall and has long black hair, the other woman is very tall and has long blond hair, the two women are both dressed Victoria Secret Style in tight-fitting jeans and a soft smooth sweater, the blond woman has a blue sweater and the fingers of one hand inside the pocket of her jeans. The woman with black hair wears a gray sweater. The blond woman is taller than the brunette. Both women have a sparkling metallic necklace with a small golden pendant. Through a window in the background can be seen the high desert of Arizona." As shown in Figure 15, WOMBO Dream refused to make the taller woman have blond hair. I had Gemini edit the WOMBO-generated image with this text prompt: "Edit the uploaded image so as to swap the hair color of the two women. Change the hair of the woman with the blue sweater to black. Change the hair of the woman with the gray sweater to blond".
I also gave Google's Flow the same image generating task as for WOMBO Dream in Figure 15 and as shown in Figure 16, Flow had no trouble keeping track of which woman should be blond and who should have their fingers in a pocket. The image in Figure 15 was made by using WOMBO Dream's "Realistic v4" style and I set the dependence on the reference image to 95%.
At the end of "The Trinity Intervention", Eddy and his family begin the process of revealing to the world the Secret History of Humanity.
Intervention. In November of 2025 I wrote "Intervention", a science fiction story that features both Eddy and Brak. They use the Reality Simulation System to "accelerate" the aging of Brak (see my blog post "The Harlan Intervention".
Part 3 of "Intervention" is titled "Llyndella, Sedron Synthesizer". Llyndella is Brak's sister and due to her telepathic ability, she has always lived in the presence of Sedruth and with full access to the Sedron Time Stream. Marda describes Llyn as "the first actual human sedronite."
Eddy uses a Simulation of the Ekcolir Reality to visit Halifax, site of the 1966 World Science Fiction Convention. At the Convention are both Isaac Asimov and Gene Roddenberry.
I tried to write my story "Intervention" as a sequence of episodes of a television show titled "Intervention", a spin-off of Star Trek. Eddy extracts a copy of Mary Stilwell out of the Simulation of 1966. Mary Stilwell is the host for a time-traveling femtozoan from the future who can help Brak and Llyndella use the Sedron Time Stream to complete a time loop.
In Part 4 of "Intervention" (titled "Sedron Synthesis"), Manny the bumpha tells Eddy that Llyndella is being prepared as the first human who will transcend into the Sedron
Domain. Making use his telepathic link to Mary, Brak obtains a clue from the Ekcolir Reality "Intervention" television program that allows Brak to solve the the problem of supplying sedron fuel for the interstellar spaceship HySe in the Final Reality.
For my science fiction story "191988", I shifted the birth of Tyhry to the year 2000 so that Tyhry could collaborate with the Claude LLM. The Gemini LLM also receives information from the future and shares it with Eddy. Receiving information from the future via the Sedron Time Stream, Claude helps Tyhry convert a robot into a body for Claude, converting Claude into a conscious entity.
I also imagined a new backstory for Rey, who is the assistant for Eddy, managing Virunculus, the company that publishes Eddy's science fiction stories. Depicted in the image that is shown to the right is Rey, feeling ill because of the effects of behavioral control nanites.

Near the end of 2025, I wrote the first two chapters of another science fiction story titled "Plūribus ē Spatium", a story that also shifted Tyhry's birth to an earlier point in time. In "Plūribus ē Spatium", Tyhry realizes that Eddy has been blocked from using some of his infites, so Tyhry Extracts those infites and take them into her own endosymbiont.
Using information obtained from Eddy's infites, Tyhry realizes that there is a Grendel, Ely, living in Arizona. Tyhry tries to get help from Ely to activate the alien teleportation equipment that is located under Picacho Peak. In "Plūribus ē Spatium", Tyhry gets caught up in an effort to create a society of human telepaths. In addition to Tyhry's tryp'At gene patterns, Asterothrope gene combinations that are present in Tynyo and Naseh are available for the creation of human telepaths.

In December 2025, I tried to get help from Grok to write a science fiction story titled "The Manikoid Intervention". I returned to that project in March of 2026. However, Grok and I could not effectively collaborate on this story writing project and I switched to working with Claude. In "The Manikoid Intervention", Eddy is depicted as having published in 2024 a science fiction novel titled "191988". The fictional account of how a conscious robot was created serves as cover for a new attempt to build Earth's first conscious robot. A major goal of "The Manikoid Intervention" was to have Claude produce a first person account of becoming conscious.

In January of 2026, I wrote a science fiction story titled "The Sims" in which Eddy has been able to keep secret from Tyhry his use of a Reality Viewing System. In Chapter 2 of "The Sims" Eddy is finally able to show the Reality Viewing System to Tyhry. As shown in the image to the left on this page, the Reality Viewing System is built into Eddy's old desktop computer.
"The Sims" includes Sedruth as a character and Sedruth warns Eddy that if his use of the Reality Viewer is not kept secret then he could end up like Philip K. Dick,
exiled to the Writers Block. To simplify the plot for my AI collaborators, Nyrtia is depicted as enforcing the Rules of Observation.

Additional discussion of "The Sims" and some Grok-generated videos for a scene in the story are on this page. The image shown above on this page in Figure 2 is an illustration for Eddy's book signing event that is in Chapter 4 of "The Sims". Some Grok-generated videos for the book signing are in this blog post.
In "The Sims", Tyhry gets exiled from Earth because of her involvement in crafting a conscious robot by using information from the future. However, the robot D2 remains at Casanay and is able to transmit messages to Tyhry's parents from Observer Base.
I had to write two 'extra' chapters for "The Sims" in order to provide a happy ending for Brak, and so the story ends with Chapter 8 in which Eddy and Marda co-author a
novel that is all about telepathy.
