The Monastery Of Badia Fiesolana
The heat of the day had faded, giving way to the cool evening air drifting through the shuttered windows of the modest chamber. In the dim candlelight, Father Bruni’s eyes dulled, a flicker of pain crossing his pale face as his gaze settled on the boy, who watched him intently. He reached out a frail hand, resting it in the boy’s palm. ‘Will God have mercy on me?’
Tears brimmed in the boy’s eyes. ‘God forgives us all.’
The old priest glanced at the Bibles neatly arranged on a nearby shelf. ‘I shall soon discover the truth.’
His thoughts drifted to the chapel, where candlelight danced across Venetian chandeliers—a lavish gift from the Medici. The Mass had been grand enough for a cardinal, utterly out of place in the humble confines of their monastery. Could a servant have two masters? He wondered. A lifetime devoted to both Lorenzo de’ Medici and God—one master building a library envied across the Renaissance world, the other demanding humility and sacrifice. He had often marvelled at the Medici’s arrogance, their belief that wealth could purchase anything—even a place in heaven, though he doubted they could save his soul. Only God could decide.

The Airship
The morning sun cast an ethereal glow over the barren landscape as Chu and Jorgen scanned the horizon, their attention drawn to a rhythmic hum which grew more insistent. Through the haze, the clouds parted to reveal the silhouette of an airship. Chu’s eyes narrowed at the approaching vessel as it glided above the ocean. ‘Showing off as usual.’
Jorgen grinned. ‘They do have a knack for grand entrances. It’s not just about speed but also symbolism. Anya and the council will wish to honour your return with the appropriate solemnity.’
Chu shot him a sceptical glance. ‘I can only hope they’re as committed to action as they are to staging grand spectacles.’
Jorgen’s eyes locked on the colossal airship, watching its majestic descent. ‘You must admit, they are rather impressive,’ he said, a trace of pride in his tone. ‘The technology is far ahead of anything known regarding speed and manoeuvrability.’
‘And,’ Chu interjected, ‘utterly unnecessary for transporting merely one individual.’

Katadesis
A past Jorgen had left behind slipped into view as the faint silhouette of Katadesis emerged on the horizon. The city stood alone, its stone walls bathed in the soft hues of dusk, shrouded in grand isolation. Its face turned towards the barren expanse of the surrounding landscape.
The airship hummed softly as it soared over the warm glow of streetlights that threaded through the city below, the Victorian architecture stretching skywards in ornate splendour. Jorgen peered through the observation window as they passed the Library of Isotheos before gliding back into the open skies and turning to face the landing port. Behind it, the Tesla Power Station cast a faint blue hue against the encroaching night.
The engine’s tone deepened, slowing as they approached the docking mast. Crimson beams marked the landing zone; their lights caught on the faces of the ground crew looking up as the airship’s bulk descended, its hull gleaming under the floodlights. With a final adjustment, a barely perceptible tremor rippled through the ship as it gently kissed the mooring mast. A muffled thud resonated as the vessel settled into place and the ground crew sprang into action, securing cables and engaging locks.

The Telsa Station
Jorgen walked to the set of double doors, which opened to reveal the true heart of the station. His eyes traced the elegant lines of the massive machinery. Here was more than technology; it was art, a creation that bridged the gap between science and mysticism.
Generators filled the enormous chamber, their intricate interiors visible through glass casings. At the centre, the enormous Magnifying Transmitter rose towards the vaulted ceiling, a towering pillar of gleaming metal, its surface shimmering faintly.
He made his way toward the immense central turbine, its spokes spiralling around a core. Stunned, he reached out, his fingertips brushing against the smooth surface. A vibration coursed through his arm, a tangible connection to the energy surging through the station, the faint hum resonating through his bones.
A small brass plaque gleamed under the ambient light—Tesla’s dedication. He knelt before it and read the inscription:
‘If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6, and 9, then you would have the key to the universe.’– Nikola Tesla.

BOOK TWO. Metis Polar Station
The vibration pulsated deep beneath his skin, a soft and steady beat in tune with his heart. The frigid air that had been his constant companion began to dissipate. Overhead, the aurora borealis lit up the night sky, its vibrant waves of colour washing over him. The feeling within him intensified, every atom yearning to be liberated, to join the dance of lights above.
Suddenly, a deafening explosion shattered the stillness of the vast expanse. Specks of light filled the air, gravitating towards a common focal point, as if drawn by an invisible force.
BOOK TWO. The Temple at Ho Min
The explosion tore through the building, sending flames and debris into the sky. Chu grabbed Lei. ‘This way,’ he urged, pulling her towards the doorway. Guards streamed towards the central building, where the council had been sitting moments earlier.
Lei turned to him, her eyes wide and dazed. ‘Who would do this?’
Before Chu could reply, his gaze froze—he was staring straight into the barrel of a gun.
BOOK TWO. The Lowenherz
Chu briefly considered that his only protection from the perilous icy waters was the suit enclosing him. Pushing the thought aside, he followed the rope to the U-boat’s deck and lowered himself into the creaky hull. He recalled Jorgen’s warning: ‘You only have twenty minutes of air; time is everything.’
They had agreed that Jorgen would keep watch while Chu explored the interior. He scoured the frigid depths, peering through the thick glass of his helmet; catching movement in the inky waters he strained to discern the shape, then gasped.
‘That can’t be possible.’
