Some of Very Short Stories

Theolmympus

Well I thought I'd let you know the purpose of this Blog. It's so I can upload short stories from this strange place that I've started gathering stories from.

The Darklands however isn't really a fantasy world in the more traditional sense. It's a series of musings that I've been developing for a while now that begins with "What if some people from a technologically advanced culture suddenly found themselves in the situation where all their technology no longer works?"

The short answer is "They'd be screwed." The much longer and easier answer is "They'd found a new empire." This is what the first story that I've been developing has been about, but in the meantime, I've been exploring this strange place. It's a planet, slightly larger than Earth, tilted a bit more than Earth and has two moons unlike Earth. It also has something strange about it that doesn't allow what we think of as technology to work. Nobody knows what it is, but it has something to do with the intense magnetic field about the planet and the strange shape of that field.

And then there are the inhabitants...

Another time.
