Bess wakes from a dream she can't shake. She was serving alongside aliens called Aryllans on a Diplomatic Service Team-building the first Aryllan Embassy on Earth. But humanity remembered what the Aryllans used to be. Monsters. Predators. Then she opens her eyes in Atlanta. She's just an immigrant from Papua New Guinea helping her family import plants after school. But something is pulling her. Bess grabs a bag of magnolia seeds and tells her sister she's going on a Walkabout. "You can't do that in Atlanta!" Watch her. Following an instinct to a place near her family's house, Bess is pulled aboard a ship and comes face to face with Perr-Prince of Aryll, heir to a dying kingdom of one hundred thousand worlds. She will witness the Aryllans transform from monsters into the people they once were. She will discover her seeds share an ancient bond with Aryll's mother tree. And she will learn that love-the kind she poured into a simple bag of seeds-is the only thing that can save them all. 📚 Book 10 of the Battle of the Cubes series 🏷️ YA Sci-Fi | Aliens | Diplomacy | Transformation | Plants & Love 2026 Royal Road Spring Writathon entry @JustWriteIt 30DC and 8CC challenges

They all froze and looked at the camera. "Danger Service!" We are brave, we are bold We do what we are told And sometimes we are sold into slavery! Several of them were dragged offscreen, some by their feet. But we work really hard To think of things that people need And we write them in provisions For all the Seven's traders So that everybody eats! Satire of Diplomatic Service, from Dannis Cole's fiction universe. Coming soon to YouTube...uh, when I learn Unreal Engine 5. At this rate, it might just be Unreal Engine 22 by the time I get anything done...for now, here are episodes from random, unpublished stories. The picture is Diplomat Dashing, an Elshar diplomat, saying, "Oh, no! Am I missing a pin? Habis maif!" His sash is purple because he doesn't know how to prog his clothing former. Advisors in Sigan Mas, a school that's a galaxy, stay up late at night to figure out errors the producers of Danger Service can stick in an episode for diplomatic students to find. For example, barren Elshar Mashai, capital world of the Alliance, is a treeless, sandy world but for a tiny region of farms. Episodes will show Georgia red mud, rain, and pine trees. Or items made of wood, which is very rare on Elshar worlds!

My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow. Glowing eyes were not normal. Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal. What was I then? For that, I had no answer [[Word count: 495,000]] Copyright August 2016. All Rights Reserved. Readers may not copy, alter, or steal this story.
