    I'm pleased you're enjoying the forest. Yes, there's a fallacious truism [if that makes sense] that goes - 'There's a simple solution to every problem, and it's always wrong.' In fact, the 'simple' solution is frequently the best.

    And I love you for loving it.

    Never a truer work spoken in jest - but it isn't a joke - it's the reality we live with.

    Men! A land of men, in spite of everything, The one manly quality, undying, acrid fearlessness. The eternal challenge of the un-quenched human soul. Perhaps too acrid and challenging today, when there is nothing left to challenge. But men—who exist without apology and without justification. Men who will neither justify themselves nor apologize for themselves. Just men. The rarest thing left in our sweet Earth [from Aaron’s Rod…by D H Lawrence] The atmosphere was becom

    Well - Leo has two. Thanks for remembering all the previous 'heroes' in my apocryphal sagas of derring-do among the elusive queer elite of sub-tropical Australia.

    You are very quick off the mark, Wesley. I'd love to have included all those names, unfortunately the original guys all had kids over the previous millennia - 14.2 generations in fact, and along the way some of them rebelled at such old fashioned names and invented their own.

    What you can't believe, Canuk, is of enormous interest, however having met the New Men a thousand years ago, do you really think them incapable of flying under the radar of such egregiously selfish and mind-bogglingly arrogantly vile people as the political leaders of Oasis? And then in the next paragraph you compare me to one of them! A politician!!! the lowest of the low [apart from bankers] in opinion poles. Ah me - doomed to a life of being misunderstood. [sniff]. But I shall persist in attempting to bring enlightenment to the masses. I forgive you.

    Well... we hope so - Tomorrow will tell - perhaps.

    The sun had just risen when a boxlike structure moving on large soft rollers, rounded the corner and stopped directly below the balcony in front of Ishbel’s apartment. Wearing borrowed Mage cloaks, Peteru and Uretep climbed over the railing and dropped through a roof opening onto comfortable seats, then reached up to take two bundles; a small one containing fifteen enseemats and their terminals, and a large basket containing thirteen sets of Mage vestments so they'd have something to wear if the

    They want more of everything because they are human - it's the same reason that the CEO's of multinationals give themselves salaries a thousand times larger than the median wage of their employees, why the US is at war with every country that will not allow them to do as they please with that country's natural resources - why people want a bigger car, a larger house, a.... It seems Oasis is the only city in Eastern Australia - but I'm only guessing...

    I Knew a very fine Samoan a few years ago called Peteru [ a Samoan version of Peter] and Uretep is Peteru backwards. Believe me, the Mags get much yukkier. As for whether the two lads escape -You'll have to wait and see...

    You'll have to wait another a dozen or so chapters for the Mages to get their rewards - meanwhile, enjoy the ride.

    Thanks for your kind words and sensible comments, Buz - I hope the rest of the tale also appeals.
  14. Rigby Taylor
    What plans are you referring to, Canuk? So far they seem to be running around in circles worrying, while setting up what will be the system that allows the Mages to cover the earth in more Oases... OK - just for you I will think of a plan to foil the Mage's foul designs -

    Absolutely true - My head was thinking of communities running out of water, but what I wrote was nonsense. Thanks for pointing it out. You are a true conservationist!

    At ten am on the sixth day Begum ran tired fingers through her hair, nodded and allowed herself a self-satisfied smile. The work had required meticulous attention and skill, and contrary to expectations the design was so complex they’d been pleased to have both inventors constantly hovering over them—checking, testing, thinking. ‘The bulk production module is ready to produce the pads,’ she informed Peteru proudly. ‘These are the first dozen samples. We can start churning them out once you g

    Thank you Ulysses - You have made my day!

    Ohhhh... never underestimate cunning, cruel people who trust no one. They aren't stupid, merely insanely arrogant and bored to dementia - like most of the insanely wealthy humans today - they have enough money to do whatever they like - but when there's no challenge there's no pleasure in doing/having anything - so they try everything in excess - and discover the great emptiness of life. And that drives them to be nice and generous to everyone, spending their money on alleviating poverty, bringing water to the deserts, cleaning up the atmosphere, rivers , sea and land and spreading peace and goodwill..... oh, and making pigs fly to eat the pie in the sky. As for the sheer numbers of people - remember the title of the story.... numbers can be crunched.

    That's a relief!

    Angie should have been in bed. Nauseating, phlegm-filled snorts accompanied her exhaustive and exhaustingly verbose catalogue of the problems of Oasis requiring urgent attention. Suddenly choking on a particularly large gob of mucus, she coughed violently, spraying her two listeners with malodorous slime before scuttling back inside. No one took any notice. Not daring to wipe Magus mucus from their bodies, Peteru and Uretep conferred softly until Ishbel impatiently demanded to know what
  22. Rigby Taylor
    I'll consider that scenario, Skyacer.

    Later, Wesley, later. Wouldn't that be a bot too quick of a death? Let's have some fun with the creepy guys first. She's well protected, so the heroes have to manoeuvre themselves into a position where they can do something useful...
  24. Rigby Taylor
    Thanks, Skyacer - I appreciate your kind words, and that you keep reading.
  25. Rigby Taylor
    Sorry about that. It's just a skipped number. I repeated chapter 32 instead of pasting 33, didn't know how to get rid of it, so deleted it, then posted 33 but it became 34, I should ask Cia if she can fix it. thanks for enjoying the story
