THE LOST SIGNALS: An Alternate History Titanic Tale. By Lord Wittham. When the R.M.S. Titanic sets sail for her sea trials, four young men are hired as Marconi Wireless Operators, systematically handling the telegraph, on the new and luxurious ship. They get along great, but one of them starts to have doubts about the ship. However, they could not expect what was to come, following the ship's departure from Queenstown, Ireland to the open Atlantic... straight into the Atlantic Ice Field. With that, the Titanic eventually hits an iceberg... and it's up to the four men to call up ships to help them out; both near and far. Once the disaster is over, they recover with a loss: one of the wireless operators passed in the sinking. And it's for them to pick up the last remaining pieces of their proof there. This alternate history tale is about the Wireless Operators of the RMS Titanic, as in this alternate history story: there were 4 Wireless Operators on the Titanic, when in reality, there were only two operators (John George Phillips and Harold Sydney Bride), not four. This will also have fictional and real-life ships, the Carpathia and Californian will be grandly included amongst them, along with some real-time ideas. Also, this story will have 26 chapters: 24 main chapters, half of them (12 of them) will be short, the other half of them (12 of them) will be long, the Prologue and the Epilogue included, along with two Bonus Chapters. RATED T: Language, violence, action, peril, horror, news, history and alternate history throughout. ALL OC'S I OWN ARE MINE. CHARACTERS TO SHOWS I USE ARE ALL COMPLIMENTED TO THEIR ORIGINAL OWNERS, WHILE THE REAL PEOPLE OF THIS STORY ARE CHARACTERIZED IN HISTORY ON WHAT THEY DID DURING THE SINKING AND WHY THEY DID IT. The real heroes who were there, and passed and survived that night are complimented, as well for their actions that night and the early morning hours of April 14th-April 15th, 1912.
