Paradigm Shift: Future
Comes from Behind
by S.T.K. Chan
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Science Fantasy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Fighting
what we've become.
An
ancient dimension of dark echoes from the past.
Lisa
and her family barely manage to escape an invasion from the Rebel army in their
home of Malta. Shortly after this episode, she discovers Exo, the ancient
dimension she cannot understand until her late 20s. Exo is made of memories of
the past; it brings forth all the strong echoes we leave behind. Lisa
desperately wants to resolve the conflicts of this inner world peacefully, but
quickly learns she must fight the shadows in people's hearts, materialized
through battle re-enactments, warfare and emotional turmoil.

EXCERPT TWO:
Soon
the windows revealed smaller buildings and less crowded streets. The train grew
emptier too. Lisa heard the monotonous hum of the wheels more clearly; it
slowed her heartbeat down to a peaceful pace. In a flash, as she had done many
times before, she crossed into what she believed to be a dreaming state of
mind.
A
dense forest surrounded her. It was cold, and patches of snow covered the
ground.
It
feels so real… But I wanted a nice view of wild, untamed mountains. And a
waterfall. And why can’t I better control the season or the clothes I’m
wearing? Lisa wondered, shivering a little. There! She finally spotted an exit
from the curtain of trees.
Below,
a large lake covered with floating sheets of ice lay at her feet. She was
indeed on a mountain. The fresh air was freezing, but she breathed it in
eagerly, ignoring the abundant vapors of her warm breath.
What
could this resemble? Canada? Alaska? Lisa had learned that, by focusing very
deeply with closed eyes, she could sometimes change her clothing or some of the
details around her.
This
time, only a long scarf appeared on her shoulders after she opened her eyes.
“Not enough,” she said, shivering, but proceeded to walk along the cliff
regardless. Minutes later, she stopped to take a better look into the distance.
A boat? I don’t want to come across any other people this time...Ah, it’s just
a log. She could not stand the cold any longer, so she thought about getting
back.
Greg
raised an eyebrow when he noticed her repeated blinking.
“Your
lucid dreams again?”
Lisa
nodded in confession.
“Where
did you go this time?”
“Far…far
from these many babylons.”
“Just
another reason why we are a perfect match.” He smiled.
“They
are so real. And they feel so long, though they really last just a fraction of
a second.”
“Do
you meet any people in there?”
“Yes,
but I avoid them. It scares me to death how intense and unpredictable they are.
Last week I met a tribe in Africa and before that I was in the middle of a
medieval city.”
“Lucky
you,” said Greg. “It’s a strange yet blissful anomaly, to escape reality like
that.”
