Chapter
Chapter XXIV — The coming Race
Chapter XXIV begins not with sorrow, but with an invitation—a child requests Aph-Lin's presence at the funeral of a relative. I, sensing the weight of a possible encounter with Zee, ask to join. My motives are mixed: part curiosity, part avoidance, yet mostly driven by the chance to understand how this extraordinary society embraces something all living beings must face—death. Their tone, from the start, is not mournful. In place of grief, there is readiness. Death here is not shunned but welcomed,…-

Chapter XXIII — The coming Race
Chapter XXIII unfolds with a subtle tension, as the narrator grapples with an uncomfortable truth—Zee’s affection for him is both overt and socially acceptable in her world. Yet for him, it feels overwhelming and out of step with everything he has known. Her father, Aph-Lin, treats her interest casually, viewing it as a personal decision not requiring interference. This absence of paternal concern surprises the narrator, who comes from a culture where courtship is typically restrained and gender…-

Chapter XXII — The coming Race
Chapter XXII draws attention to the careful watch placed over the protagonist as he moves among the Vril-ya. Though welcomed with civility, he is never truly left alone. Aph-Lin or the boy Taee accompany him at nearly every turn, underscoring both a cultural wariness and an unspoken caution. Despite earlier assurances of discretion, Aph-Lin remains skeptical that the protagonist can fully control what he shares. The slightest detail about his world could inspire curiosity or fear. He begins to sense that…-

Chapter XXI — The coming Race
Chapter XXI opens with a mounting tension that is less about danger and more about desire—specifically, Zee’s growing affection toward the narrator. Unlike the playful companionship he shares with Taee, Zee’s feelings are weighted by a gravity that unsettles him. Her interest is neither flirtatious nor naive; it is rooted in a protective, almost maternal instinct that merges affection with responsibility. She does not merely care—she invests, heals, and seeks to elevate. Her strength and wisdom…-

Chapter XX — The coming Race
Chapter XX marks a shift in tone as Taee’s visits to me became more frequent and more personal. His youthful nature, brightened by wit and genuine interest, stood in contrast to the more formal and cerebral demeanor of his elders. Though only around twelve in their years, his mind worked with astonishing precision. But unlike others of his race, he seemed to enjoy the novelty I presented. To him, I was a curiosity wrapped in humor—a living relic of a world so unlike his own. His kindness didn’t feel…-

Chapter XVII — The coming Race
Chapter XVII opens with an immersion into the rhythm of Vril-ya life, where the passage of time is neither dictated by the sun nor governed by outdated customs. Their day is precisely structured into twenty hours, distributed thoughtfully between work, recreation, and rest. This system reflects more than efficiency—it reveals how harmony guides even the most fundamental human activities. The absence of darkness is intentional, with continuous ambient lighting outdoors and a dimming system indoors to…-

Chapter XVI — The coming Race
Chapter XVI explores the awe-inspiring technological and physiological advancements of the Vril-ya, drawing particular attention to their ability to harness vril with a degree of mastery that renders our most destructive inventions obsolete. The narrator learns that the vril-powered instruments can obliterate a target hundreds of miles away with precision, all calculated through their sophisticated mathematical sciences. These calculations determine the charge and trajectory with such detail that entire…-

Chapter XV — The coming Race
Chapter XV begins with a simple suggestion from Zee that carries a deeper intention—she encourages me to adopt the clothing of the Vril-ya. Without their signature wings, I would pass among them as a traveler of lesser rank, avoiding unnecessary attention. Donning their attire was both an invitation and an initiation—a way to observe their society more intimately without causing disruption. The garments, though elegant in design, were surprisingly comfortable and tailored for both grace and ease. My…-

Chapter XIX — The coming Race
Chapter XIX begins with a detour. As we returned toward the city, Taee suggested an alternate path that would take us past the central departure station used by travelers and emigrants. I agreed out of curiosity, eager to see more of this remarkable world. What awaited was a display of mobility unlike anything I’d encountered. The land transports, powered entirely by vril, ranged from small personal units to vast, multi-roomed homes on wheels. These vehicles moved silently, their motion graceful and…-

Chapter XIV — The coming Race
Chapter XIV presents a profound look into the spiritual and moral outlook of the Vril-ya, whose view of existence stretches beyond the limits of physical life. They believe that once life is granted, it cannot be extinguished—it merely transforms. This transformation does not happen again on Earth but in other planes or realms where each stage offers greater consciousness, joy, and refinement. Such a belief rejects reincarnation as traditionally imagined, replacing it with a concept of perpetual ascent.…-
