All the Worlds... and a Stage
Genius comes natural for those who can listen.
"I shall watch thee perish at the Bay of Ephesus. No marks were levied for Thy ransom. Penalty by law, condemns thee to death by-"
"Stop at once!" William asserted. "This is all wrong! Your literary illiteracy is turning this production into a comedy of errors... Wait!... a verbal extraction alludes!"
The epiphany shrouded Williams's face. He paced in a circle, tapping his right index finger to his nose. The actors waited in dreadful silence for his mental recoil to lapse.
"We shall meet again in two days. Radical changes are soon to be implemented. Good day, thespians!"

Fish Face
Is it safe? Is it safe? It must be safe. I don’t hear any fishing lures plunking into the water or boats with trolling motors plying the surface of my lake. Yes, I said my lake, even though these air-breathing humans treat it and those of us living in its water as theirs. I have been battling with one of them for almost ten years. He started this war, but he’ll never win.

The Imaginative Glorian Psyche
It is rare that we look within our current times to pull what will be the largest and most significant societal changes and makers. Ancient archivists filled plenty of scripts with the importance of Demasia’s innovations in terraforming. Discoveries in large-scale damming would allow water to be spread throughout their lands. Demasia would become known for its advanced canal and boating routes, but not for thousands of years after these predictions. What is credited with advancing Demasia into surviving among the ancient early peoples were actually improvements in rope-making and weaving. Through developing stronger and more purposeful textiles, the Demasians were able to improve agricultural effectiveness, create bigger and sturdier buildings, and begin learning about weight distribution.
