Into The Outer Track (a Solarpunk Utopian novel by W. J. Manares) [COMPLETE]

Chapter 25 - The Wholly Vibe Bill

Gonggong was a place of forgotten beauty, where life once thrived but had since fallen into disrepair. However, hope was rekindled when the Reanimated Survivors arrived on this dwarf planet.

Right now, they're led by their wise and enigmatic guide, UU, or Ure the Undead. UU, with his ancient knowledge and boundless wisdom, became the beacon of guidance for the Gonggong Guild.

As they began their work, the Gonggong Guild discovered an almost torn copy of The Wholly Vibe Bill (TWVB) in one of the bags they're carrying. TWVB is a collection of ancient texts that contained a set of ten golden rules for everyday living. These rules served as a compass, guiding the Guild in their endeavor to create a utopian society on Gonggong. With reverence for these principles, the Guild set out to breathe new life into the dwarf planet.

The first rule, "Harmony with Nature," urged the Gonggong Guild to respect and nurture the environment. They established lush gardens and cultivated sustainable agriculture, embracing renewable energy sources that harmonized with the dwarf planet's natural rhythms.

The second rule, "Equity and Justice," encouraged the Guild to build a society where fairness and equality prevailed. They fostered a culture of collaboration and compassion, ensuring that everyone's needs were met and their voices heard.

The third rule, "Creativity Unleashed," inspired the Gonggong Guild to embrace their creativity and celebrate the arts. They adorned Gonggong's landscapes with vibrant murals, sculptures, and architectural wonders, transforming the planet into a living canvas of inspiration.

The fourth rule, "Knowledge Shared," emphasized the importance of education and the free exchange of ideas. The Guild established learning centers and libraries, where knowledge flowed freely, empowering every individual to grow and contribute to the betterment of society.

The fifth rule, "Community Empowered," called for strong and resilient communities. The Guild fostered a spirit of togetherness, organizing festivals, communal gatherings, and cooperative projects that strengthened the bonds between Gonggong's Reanimated Survivors.

The sixth rule, "Technology in Balance," urged the Gonggong Guild to embrace technology while maintaining a balance with nature. They developed sustainable and eco-friendly advancements, harnessing the power of innovation to solve challenges without causing harm.

The seventh rule, "Health and Well-being," prioritized the physical and mental well-being of every individual. The Guild established holistic wellness centers, promoting practices that nurtured both mind and body, ensuring a harmonious and thriving Gonggong.

The eighth rule, "Adventure and Exploration," encouraged the Gonggong Guild to embrace curiosity and the spirit of discovery. They built observatories, laboratories, and exploration vessels, venturing into the unknown and expanding the boundaries of knowledge.

The ninth rule, "Peace and Nonviolence," called for the resolution of conflicts through dialogue and understanding. The Guild established mediation centers and facilitated open conversations, fostering a culture of empathy and cooperation.

The tenth rule, "Legacy of Wonder," reminded the Gonggong Guild to leave a lasting legacy of wonder for future generations. They documented their journey, preserving their knowledge and experiences, ensuring that the beauty of Gonggong would endure for eternity.

As the Gonggong Guild adhered to these golden rules, the once-forgotten dwarf planet, Gonggong transformed into a flourishing utopia. Its landscapes thrived with lush greenery, its inhabitants embraced harmony and equality, and its culture blossomed with creativity and innovation.
